  • Two events, two separate attitudes

    On Jan. 19, 2026, a group of activists (thugs) intruded upon Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota, because a local ICE official serves as a pastor there. Approximately 30 hours later and 1,772 miles to the southeast, the College Football Championship was played at 347 Don Shula Drive, otherwise known as Hard Rock Stadium, in Miami, Florida.  
  • Obama’s fingerprints all over investigations of Trump and Clinton
    The new evidence suggests that Comey wasn’t acting alone. It indicates that Obama was more involved in the Clinton probe than previously reported and that Comey, whose entire family supported Clinton, may have pulled his punches to placate the incumbent president and avoid getting on the wrong side of the woman he assumed would be Obama’s successor.
  • As Trump weighs veto, Obamacare’s flaws come due
    The lesson of the Affordable Care Act is not merely that one law failed, but that good intentions detached from reality can produce lasting harm. The moral high ground claimed by the anointed often becomes a mire of unintended consequences.
  • Russia’s 90-day warning
    The next three months will be the most volatile in the history of the Ruble. For the first time since 1998, the Russian state faces a total loss of control over its financial destiny. The "Paper Tiger" still has claws on the battlefield, but its wallet is empty. And in 2026, an empty wallet is a more potent weapon than a thousand T-90 tanks.
  • Red states have reliable power because they embrace an all-of-the-above strategy
    It turns out that keeping the lights on isn’t about picking a side. It’s about picking all the energy sources that can deliver affordable and reliable electricity based on local conditions.
  • America can’t secure its future on imported minerals
    If the past few years taught us anything, it’s that national security no longer stops at the water’s edge or the factory gate. It runs through the mines, mills, refineries, and logistics networks that supply the metals inside our jets, ships, satellites, power grid, and the next generation of energy technologies. 
  • A sermon on Matthew 4:12-23
    Jesus is the Light that reveals not only the Kingdom of God, but the values that God considers most important in His Kingdom.

  • Competition coming for the SAT, ACT, AP, and International Baccalaureate
    For far too long, K-12 education has been dominated by monopolies – the public education system, state standardized testing, the SAT and ACT college entrance exams, Advanced Placement, and the International Baccalaureate program. The result has been soaring educational costs, declining quality, and a lack of innovation, all to the detriment of students nationwide.
  • One year in, President Trump has restored biological truth
    More than anything, President Trump has restored common sense in government, especially when it comes to protecting women and children from harmful ideology.
  • Building our way out of our housing crisis
    Mamdani is duly elected, and it’s his prerogative to destroy the Big Apple’s housing supply as he sees fit. But it would be stupid for the federal government to continue sending housing development grants to the city while Mamdani and Weaver are steering the ship.
  • Somalia and the high cost of low trust
    The Minnesota scandal was not an aberration so much as a warning: When institutions assume trust without enforcing it, low-trust behavior fills the vacuum. Somalia shows what happens when that low-trust approach is entrenched.
  • Tippy, Chapter Three
    Jim put me in the old Corvair, and we headed down the lane. I could see Pete just standing there looking at me. I watched until I could see him no more. We turned left on state Route 506. We stopped at a stop sign in a small village and then went straight on. I was memorizing the route very carefully because a wild, audacious plan was forming in my mind.
  • Property tax relief
    The crux of matter remains: How to ensure adequate funding for local schools, fire, police, EMS, libraries and developmental disabilities, should Ohio’s property taxes be abolished.
  • It seems simple to this old farm boy
    It seems to me if you don’t want to get harmed out in the streets, the right idea is to stay home. Petition your federal or state representatives if you don’t like the laws as they stand. Or go to the media. The actions in Minneapolis remind me of the old films from Russia in 1917 and onward.
  • U-Haul’s election lesson
    The impact of losing friends and families — and their wealth — to other states should be the canary in coal mine for Pennsylvanians getting ready for another election year in 2026. We need to recognize that bad state-level policies are driving tax dollars and our neighbors to more friendly environments. In fact, the blue-to-red migration is profound across the country.
