Analogy for the day. A stone is thrown into a pond. Makes a ripple effect until it dissipates. Trump is that stone. Thrown into the pond that is the world. And the ripple caused by his tariffs won’t dissipate anytime soon. In fact, the ripple effect, instead of dissipating, will increase. Every eco

While we await ‘Liberation Day,’ certain to be anything but, let’s review a few things, just for fun. The last three Republican presidents wrecked the economy. The last three Democratic presidents had to fix things. One statistic for you. Net jobs created under Clinton and Obama: 33.8 million. Ne

Is it true that 100s of international students on U.S. campuses woke up to an email from the Department of State telling them that their visas have been revoked and asking them to “self-deport” from the country? According to reporting, the students have been targeted as a part of Sec. of State Rubi

Will my elected officials please explain why Trump has ordered armored combat vehicles, known as Strykers, and 100s of military troops to Big Bend National Park? Why is this action necessary when the Border Patrol’s Big Bend Sector sees much lower border crossings than other areas along the U.S.-M

I am asking my elected officials if they will join and support MS Senator Roger Wicker in his call for an investigation into SignalGate? Will you condemn these reckless actions by our security leaders that put American pilots’ lives in danger? Will you demand the same accountability as in the past

Sec. of Defense Pete Hegseth looked directly at a reporter’s camera and said: “Nobody was texting war plans.” Semantics aside, this is a proven lie. Trying to cover backsides by disavowing bombing dets were classified led to the publishing of actual texts of the conversations. We got to see the l

The decimation of the federal bureaucracy in the name of DOGE has succeeded on at least one metric…that of making our government comically inefficient. Soon nothing will work as it should. We’ll be handed a list of cost savings, and assured it’s all true and correct. The effects of the theoretical
