It never made sense or seemed right. With the wave of a wand, a private citizen was granted unlimited power to prosecute a former president of the United States. In a tectonic opinion issued Monday, U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon ruled that the appointment of special counsel Jack Smith was unconstitutional. As a consequence, she...
A new Wall Street Journal poll of academic and Wall Street economists finds that most believe that President Biden would do a better job holding down inflation, the debt and interest rates than former President Trump. This is a patently ridiculous conclusion that says more about the state of economics than it does about Trump...
The Republican National Convention is a huge, sprawling, multi-day event. Thousandsof delegates and alternates – and even more thousands of spectators, news media, donors, activists and support people – will be there. There are hours of speeches for four straight days culminating in the nomination of the party’s candidate for president. This process began in...
It’s long been a staple of the stump speech for President Joe Biden to compare Donald Trump and his supporters to the Nazis, and his fellow Democrats and the liberal media eagerly amplify the ratcheted-up rhetoric. Now, sadly but predictably, this kind of talk has gotten somebody killed. Most people believe that killing Hitler would...
Sunday morning on NBC, former Biden White House Communications Director Jen Psaki, now a host on MSNBC, made an extraordinary and inflammatory demand.

The 43rd Republican National Convention kicks off Monday. Since the first, in 1856 at a concert hall in Philadelphia, the Grand Old Party has picked the winner 24 times.

Strong families are the cornerstone of strong communities that build a stronger nation. Unfortunately, our families are in peril. Widespread divorce rates, the erosion of traditional marriage, radical ideologies, attacks on faith, and government interference in our daily lives are breaking down the family and the country we love. As I discussed with former U.S....
Two days before the opening of the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, an assassination attempt on former President Donald J. Trump shocked the nation. The picture of a bloodied Trump pumping his fist in the air as Secret Service agents rush him off the stage will be indelibly burned into American minds for a very...
“I’m not going anywhere.” This week, a defiant Joe Biden called into”Morning Joe”to rebuke members of his own party who are urging him to drop out of the presidential race. The early morning phone interview was as shaky as his televised sit-down with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos—and just as rambling as his debate performance before that....
I will always remember when I first met Dr. Ruth. It was a few months before her 75th birthday – so, a little more than 21 years ago.I was at a Jewish charity event, and was walking by a few of the tables where various auction items and services were being offered. One was “Lunch...
