A statue of Thomas Jefferson holding the Declaration of Independence stands in New York's City Hall Council Chamber on Wednesday, October 20, 2021. The 1833 statue of Jefferson will be removed from the council chamber by the end of the year. Some New York City Council members have called for years to remove the statue from the room where they conduct business because Jefferson was a slaveholder. (AP Photo/Ted Shaffrey)

Canceling Thomas Jefferson ignores the facts

The New York Public Design Commission voted unanimously last week to remove a seven-foot-tall statue of the third President of the United States, Thomas Jefferson. The statue, which has called city hall home since 1834 and has been in the New York City Council chambers for more than a century, was specifically intended to honor Mr. Jefferson's writing of the Declaration of Independence, a document that literally changed the world.

Biden’s America headed toward Third World status

Biden's desire to undo any Trump actions took precedent over a respect for the law and common sense. This attitude runs the very real risk of sending Americans spiraling down to a place similar to Ghana. Published October 15, 2021

Hungary official: Easier to deal with the Taliban than the Biden administration

Imagine a world in which people said what they really believed. I don't mean folks rudely disregarding others feelings and inflicting emotional pain and stress intentionally or needlessly, but rather that as part of a civil discussion everyone could dispense with political correctness. People could share their honest thoughts without hemming and hawing or fearing blowback. Published October 8, 2021

In this Sept. 24, 2021 photo, President Joe Biden speaks about the COVID-19 response and vaccinations in the State Dining Room of the White House in Washington. President Joe Biden’s plan for a massive expansion of social programs is being framed by supporters as such a high-stakes endeavor that it’s “too big to fail.” It also may be too big to describe. A series of crises, from Afghanistan to COVID-19, along with the convoluted legislative process have hampered the White House’s ability to promote the $3.5 trillion package or even say definitively what’s in it. The price tag is sure to shrink and it's possible that components could change. (AP Photo/Patrick Semansky)

Biden paves the way for his own removal

It is commonly accepted - even by the liberal media - that the U.S. exit from Afghanistan was a disaster. Hundreds of Americans were left behind. Thousands of cooperative Afghani partners were abandoned, many likely to be killed by the ruthless Taliban. No one on planet earth points to the American withdrawal as an example of strength or diplomatic precision. The opinion on this is virtually unanimous. Published September 29, 2021

Nancy Pelosi aligns herself with the Satanic Temple

Are you familiar with the word "devout?" It's most commonly used in a phrase like "She was a devout Catholic." As a matter of fact, if you go to the dictionary and look it up, that is the very example that they use. Published September 27, 2021

Biden energy policies choking us all at the gas pump

If you ask trained, educated economists about the American economy, they will tell you a wide variety of indicators and theories on why they believe said economy is performing well or poorly. If you ask the average American about it instead, one single factor will affect their opinion perhaps more than any other. That factor is the price of gasoline. Published May 14, 2021

Electric vehicles: What’s the business plan?

Several years back, I had a close friend who approached me seeking help. She and a partner had started a business less than a year prior and it was doing poorly. She thought perhaps another set of eyes looking at the situation might help solve it. My first question to her was about projections in their business plan. She looked at me blankly. Business plan? There was no business plan. Published April 29, 2021
