Those only slightly older or younger than me are sometimes referred to as Xennials, a generation that straddles the line between two generations. We're said to have had an "analog childhood" and "digital adulthood." The descriptions are true. → Read More
There is no love lost between former President Donald Trump and Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL). It seems nearly every week, DeSantis makes a name for himself in national headlines, strengthening his exposure and appeal and contrasting himself with Trump in a positive way.

A decade ago, the phrase "war on women" was everywhere. Democrats, ever eager to paint Republicans as hateful toward women, used it constantly. The term was born out of a push to make abortion more palatable. The GOP's "war" was supposedly going to limit the freedoms of American women on various… → Read More
The abortion debate has always involved two parties: an unborn child and the mother who carries him or her. Even with the recent judicial victory in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, which effectively ended Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v.

The shocking loss of life at Club Q should never have happened. On Saturday night, a shooter killed five people and injured 17 at the gay and lesbian nightclub in Colorado.

The Senate race in Pennsylvania between John Fetterman and Dr. Mehmet Oz is of national importance.

Social media is often poisonous. The proof of that is the proliferation of offensive tweets, Facebook posts, or TikTok videos — as well as the push to cancel others for having the wrong opinion. The reactions to Queen Elizabeth II's death serve as a perfect example of this phenomenon. → Read More
After losing the 2016 election, Hillary Clinton uttered the phrase "the future is female," much to the delight of a conference crowd. The phrase didn't originate with her, but it has since gained popularity in a culture that is deeply confused about gender and the roles of men and women. A future… → Read More
The massacre at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, on Tuesday is almost too much to comprehend. In total, 19 innocent children and two adults were killed by an alleged 18-year-old madman. This type of crime on such a large scale has happened more than once in the United States. It should… → Read More

Biden's slow, grandfatherly mannerisms may work to make him appear less threatening. But the truth of his leftism has been evident since before he was elected president — even on the issue of abortion. → Read More

He may have propelled the party to victory in 2016, but last year was a disaster. More and more, it appears as if his 2016 victory was a one-off. Republicans should look at it that way. → Read More
