145 CEOs Beg for Gun Control

R.I.P. Export Import Bank

Export Import Banks are usually government agencies. They ensure the safety and growth of a country’s foreign trade. Creation of the U.S. version came in 1934. It was for providing low interest loan guarantees. It incentivizes American companies selling American products internationally. All good so far, right? Now, as Paul Harvey would say, it’s time … Read more

Should we be Taxing Social Security benefits?

There’s a bill Rep. Thomas Massie has sponsored the “Senior Citizens Tax Elimination Act”. Backers of the bill point out Social Security benefits used to be exempt from federal taxes. They are a government benefit. What sense does it make to give it with one hand and take it away with the other? Was it … Read more

Congressional Oversight, or Abuse of Power?

You’ve got to hand it to Jerry Nadler and the Democrats.  They know just how to sound righteous, patriotic, and even noble when they want to.  For two years, they posed as champions of democracy, railing about treason at the highest levels of government.  “America deserves better,” they proclaimed.

Hungry for power, Dems have no appetite for impeachment

The release of the Mueller report should have finally silenced President Trump’s Democrat critics who for two years have fueled the false narrative that he and his campaign colluded with the Russian government to win his election.  Mueller’s exhaustive investigation has proven conclusively their destructive, and very likely concocted allegations were pure fantasy.  But hard … Read more

Deception and Treachery in Congress

Somali-born, Minnesota Congresswoman Ilhan Omar described the 9/11 terrorist attack as an event where “some people did something” (15:00 mark in video).  She couldn’t bring herself to say “terrorism”, yet alone “Muslim Terrorism” while addressing CAIR, a Muslim lobbying group. Talk about a severe case of cognitive dissonance. With liberty in mind, I don’t have … Read more

Islamic Basics.

Hamas – CAIR – Connection in Congress:

Describe CAIR CAIR, the Council on American–Islamic Relations is a self proclaimed non-profit Muslim civil rights and advocacy group. Critics of CAIR, such as the United Arab Emirates (UAE), have accused it of pursuing an Islamist agenda and have claimed that the group is connected to Hamas, and the Muslim Brotherhood. CAIR rejects these claims … Read more

Trump’s Budget Proposes 2.7 Trillion in Cuts – Largest Budget Cut In US History?

Trumps biggest disappointment over his tenure (from our point of view) was spending. But he appears to be trying to rectify that. I’d question the timing. We’d have had a good deal more success cutting the budget with Republican majorities in both chambers, which is to say, at least a snowball’s chance in hell. With a Democrat majority House, we have none. But maybe that’s the point?
