On April 6, a bombshell will hit America’s theaters. That bombshell comes in the form of an understated, well-made, well-acted film called “Chappaquiddick.” (Full disclosure: They advertise with my podcast.) The film tells the story of Ted Kennedy’s 1969 killing of political aide Mary Jo Kopechne; the Massachusetts Democratic senator drove his car off a […]

The last man standing between the U.S. and war with Iran may be a four-star general affectionately known to his Marines as “Mad Dog.” Gen. James Mattis, the secretary of defense, appears to be the last man in the Situation Room who believes the Iran nuclear deal may be worth preserving and that war with […]

U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions will be in his home state of Alabama this week to address a black law enforcement group that is sometimes at odds with the Trump administration. The U.S. attorney’s office in Birmingham says Sessions will speak to the National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives on Friday.

President Trump’s pick to be the new secretary of state, Mike Pompeo, is not a fan of the Paris climate agreement, the treaty that claims it will slow global warning by reducing the world’s carbon dioxide emissions. Politicians from most of the world’s nations signed the deal, and President Obama said “we may see this […]

Last weekend, Hillary Clinton spoke in India. There, she continued to struggle publicly with the most humiliating experience of her life, not her husband’s continual sexual misconduct or her State Department’s mishandling of Benghazi but her loss of the presidency to a reality television show host. Hillary’s not over it. And she never will be. […]

There are a couple of important economic lessons that the American people should learn. I’m going to title one “the seen and unseen” and the other “narrow well-defined large benefits versus widely dispersed small costs.” These lessons are applicable to a wide range of government behavior, but let’s look at just two examples. Last week, […]

Media fail, sometimes simply because its people make mistakes, but more often because so many have biases.They also get a lot of things right.

    The original question the FBI investigation of the Trump campaign was to answer was a simple one: Did he do it? Did Trump, or officials with his knowledge, collude with Vladimir Putin’s Russia to hack the emails of John Podesta and the DNC, and leak the contents to damage Hillary Clinton and elect […]

    The Interior Department (DOI) has published a list of its accomplishments during President Donald Trump’s first year in office based on 10 principles, which include conservation, tribal sovereignty and responsible development. Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke’s top priority is to “[c]reate a conservation stewardship legacy, second only to Teddy Roosevelt,” according to a DOI […]

    A coalition of 11 states filed a friend-of-the-court brief on Dec. 22 to urge the overturning of a lower court ruling and to enforce the executive order given by President Trump to oppose sanctuary cities. The West Virginia and Louisiana-led brief has been supported by Arkansas, Florida, Kansas, Nevada, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, […]

Pastor Reeder picks the top 11 headlines of 2017 and discusses how the news happenings affected our country and culture.

    Americans are more likely to say that President Donald Trump is the man they admire most as opposed to Pope Francis or the Rev. Billy Graham, according to a Gallup poll released Wednesday. But former President Barack Obama beat all three. On the women’s side, Americans were most likely to name Hillary Clinton […]

You don't have to admire this president, or even like him, to acknowledge the obvious: that more than a few journalists won't rest until he's out of office.

The United Nations is an outmoded organization that's outlived whatever small usefulness it once had. There's no reason for us to continue funding it.

          Listen to the 10 min audio Read the transcript: TOM LAMPRECHT:  Harry, yesterday, we talked about the tax package that was passed by Congress. There was another news story that made headlines last week and that was Donald Trump’s national security strategy speech. To highlight the four pillars of that […]

  On Aug. 9, 1974, Richard Nixon bowed to the inevitability of impeachment and conviction by a Democratic Senate and resigned. The prospect of such an end for Donald Trump has this city drooling. Yet, comparing Russiagate and Watergate, history is not likely to repeat itself. First, the underlying crime in Watergate, a break-in to […]

Tens of thousands are pouring in from terrorism breeding grounds through the diversity visa lottery unvetted, unmonitored and unassimilated.

  “Congratulations to Doug Jones on a hard fought victory,” President Trump tweeted Tuesday night, after the Democrat narrowly defeated conservative Republican Roy Moore in the Alabama special election for Jeff Sessions’ Senate seat. Trump also noted, “The write-in votes played a very big factor, but a win is a win. The people of Alabama are […]

      New York City terror suspect Akayed Ullah posted “Trump, you failed to protect your nation” on Facebook just prior to executing a botched terror bombing of the subway system. Ullah, a 27-year-old Bangladeshi who moved to the United States on a family immigrant visa in 2011, attempted to cause major damage Monday […]

Pastor Harry Reeder explains the historical and Biblical significance of Trump's decision to relocate the U.S. embassy in Israel to Jerusalem.

    I am probably too exercised over the never-Trump faction, because in the end, it’s doubtful it is strong enough numerically to make a significant impact on our electoral politics, but it still bothers me to witness intramural conservative battles. I have no quarrel with those who once self-identified as never-Trumpers but now appraise his […]

The corporate income tax today is like a con game, one riddled with exemptions for privileged firms. Reform is long overdue.

Refugee admissions to the United States were down 83 percent in the first two months of fiscal 2018 (October and November) compared to the first two months of fiscal 2017. A total of only 3,108 refugees were admitted in October and November down from the 18,300 refugees who were admitted in October and November of last […]

North Korea's Kim Jong Un would be a fool to give up his missiles and nukes, and while the man is many things, a fool is not one of them.
