Searching for Monsters
"America goes not abroad in search of monsters to destroy ...
She might become the dictatress of the world,
But she would no longer be the ruler of her own spirit."
-- John Quincy Adams (1767-1848)
In the middle of his term as Secretary of State, the future president John Quincy Adams requested permission to address a joint session ...Read more
In Texas, the Cost of Early Warnings Was Paid in Death
In the early morning of July 4, a flash flood emergency was issued for Austin and San Antonio by the National Weather Service in Texas. According to the NWS, a flash flood emergency is "exceedingly rare" and is only used when "there is a severe threat to human life and catastrophic damage."
Less than two hours later, the Guadalupe River rose ...Read more
Big Beautiful Bill Delivers Win for HSAs
In a Congress addicted to bad ideas and bloated spending -- something we saw again last week -- it's rare to find a tax policy with broad, bipartisan support that also happens to be good policy. Health savings accounts are one of those rare gems. They promote individual responsibility, reduce health care costs and enjoy overwhelming support ...Read more
There Is No Limited Government Without Individual Virtue
As we begin the countdown to the 250th anniversary of the formation of this nation, we should be thinking about the circumstances that made the foundation of the United States of America possible, what has undergirded the prosperity and relative peace we have enjoyed for almost two and a half centuries, and how best to ensure that the "...Read more

Cal Thomas: Politics in the pulpit
The Internal Revenue Service announced on Monday it is overturning a restraint on churches and other houses of worship that was supposed to keep them from endorsing candidates for political office.
The root of the ban extends back to 1954....Read more
Mamdani Threat Worse Than Believed
A Florida trade group is using what it calls "the unacceptable risk" of a Zohran Mamdani mayoralty to entice Big Apple CEOs into moving their firms and families to the Sunshine State.
Smart marketing: Business leaders are already doing the Mamdani math -- adding up the massive costs of his promised public spending on universal child care, ...Read more
Who Killed Jeffrey Epstein? Jeffrey Epstein, Trump Team Acknowledges
WASHINGTON -- The Trump Department of Justice and FBI announced Monday that they had "conducted an exhaustive review" into the death of disgraced financier and child abuser Jeffrey Epstein and found more than 10,000 downloaded videos of illegal child sex abuse. Epstein, who killed himself in a New York prison cell in 2019, clearly was a ...Read more

Trump the Pirate Demands Tribute from the Media
Over the course of the last few months a “No Kings” movement has coalesced to oppose the authoritarian policies of President Trump. Organized protests across all 50 states, coinciding with Trump’s military parade, were meant to draw attention to Trump’s anti-democratic and increasingly monarchical consolidation of power.
In areas of ...Read more
Give the House Freedom Caucus the Credit It Deserves
Hardline Republicans -- specifically those members of the House Freedom Caucus -- are being derided in the press, as if they've been playing some kind of a game.
That is, threatening to not vote for the One Big Beautiful Bill, when, supposedly, everyone knew, in the end, they would cave and vote for it.
But the derision badly misses the key ...Read more
Russia: The Vulnerable Sick Man of Eurasia
Popular history credits Russian Czar Nicholas I with describing 19th-century Ottoman Turkey as "The Sick Man of Europe."
British envoy Sir George Hamilton's full quote lacks the headline's memorable pop: "We have a sick man on our hands, a man gravely ill ..." The czar added that it would be dreadful if sick man Turkey slipped away "before ...Read more
Unions Help Some Workers, But They Hurt Many More!
Progressives love unions. Not only do unions protect workers, they say, unions gave us the weekend and the middle class. I say, capitalism created the middle class. Employers, competing for better workers, gave us the weekend. But whatever you think about capitalism, few people question the claim that unions help workers. But I will. A couple ...Read more
The Constitution Does Not Compel Congress to Fund Abortion Providers
When the Founders wrote the Constitution, they unambiguously gave Congress control over federal spending. But Planned Parenthood is now suing the federal government in denial of this fact -- claiming the Constitution requires the federal government to give money to organizations that are abortion providers.
Article 1, Section 9, Clause 7 of ...Read more
Network Yawns at Mamdani's Fake Claims of Blackness!
On June 25, 33-year-old Democrat Zohran Mamdani became a new socialist sensation in the media when he won the Democratic primary for mayor of New York City. But when Republicans pounced on his radicalism, their journalistic instinct was to back away from the story.
In the seven days after his victory, ABC, CBS, NBC and PBS combined for 56 ...Read more
1775: A Very Good Year for a Little Revolution
KITTANNING -- In April 1775, William Thompson, a man rarely if ever mentioned in American history books, became the first commissioned colonel in the Continental Army of a rifle battalion in the 1st Pennsylvania Regiment.
The men who served with him were German, Irish and Scottish settlers. They were fiercely independent frontiersmen, farmers...Read more

A new documentary inadvertently underscores why populism is the future of feminism
PARIS — Buried inside a new HBO documentary about the women’s liberation movement is a gem that lands like a ton of bricks.
“Dear Ms.: A revolution in print” blends archival footage with recent interviews of the founders behind the feminist movement’s flagship magazine, tracing back to 1972.
At one point, feminist icon and Ms. co-...Read more
A Reminder of What's So Great About America
In honor of America's recent 249th birthday, let's take a moment to celebrate some of the most incredible things about her.
We are a nation of settlers. This is the country where ancestors risked -- and often lost -- their lives in pursuit of religious freedom and opportunity. From the Mayflower to the Oregon Trail, they persevered in extreme...Read more

Selling the ‘Big Beautiful Bill’
It’s one thing to pass a major piece of legislation and have it signed by the president; it’s quite another to get the public to swallow it as something that benefits most of the country.
House and Senate Democrats, who stood in unison against President Trump’s “big beautiful bill” – even trying to change the name of it to spite ...Read more
The Biggest Conservative Victory in 30 Years
Everyone knows that the "big, beautiful" tax bill signed into law on the Fourth of July lowers tax burdens for families and businesses. It also averts a $4 trillion tax increase starting next year. That's enough reason to heartily celebrate.
But what isn't well known is that this new law doesn't just change tax policy. It includes dozens of ...Read more
Don't Blame Donald Trump For Floods
Donald Trump has been accused of many outlandish things, but killing children with flash floods has to be among the worst.
The first reflex of his critics was to blame him for the appalling tragedy in Central Texas, where a flood on July 4 killed more than 80 people, including two dozen children at a Christian summer camp.
This is one of the...Read more
President Trump, There Are Legal Grounds to Revoke the Citizenship of Zohran Mamdani. Don't Just Defeat Mamdani, DEPORT HIM!
I've had an epiphany. President Donald Trump always aims for the stars. We need to do more than just defeat Zohran Mamdani, the New York City Democrat mayoral candidate.
President Trump, Attorney General Pam Bondi and the DOJ need to start the process to DEPORT HIM.
I've studied the topic of "denaturalization." This is when the U.S. government...Read more
