Citizen Writers Fighting Censorship by Helping Americans Understand Issues Affecting the Republic.
John F. Di Leo 
Yes, fuel prices are high, but the war with Iran is only a small part of the pain at the pump. Why has the government spent the past half century quietly building so many costs into the petroleum industry, that the added cost burden of even a brief war is the straw that breaks the camel’s back?
Do new tariffs marginally increase prices? Yes, but not as much as their opponents claim. And the benefits of on-shoring, to America’s communities, America’s jobseekers, America’s economy at large, are most certainly worth it!
Pope Leo XIV and the Trump Administration are clashing on important matters, from immigration to the welfare state, from natural defense to the 1400 year struggle against global jihad.
If you don’t really believe in elections – if you want an elite bureaucracy to rule the land, rather than a constitutional government consciously chosen by the citizenry – then there’s one simple path: undermine the legitimacy of every election, by introducing error at every stage.
We hoped to stop the frightening inflation. We succeeded. Then we were asked to return prices to the way they used to be. That’s a taller order, but surprisingly, in some ways, we are making headway in that direction.
An outsider would expect the mullahs to face the reality that they are soon to be deposed, but instead, they defiantly keep on appointing new placeholders to fill the roles that the coalition has made vacant.
News coverage like the reporting on Thursday’s terrorist attacks in Virginia and Michigan lead one to question the abilities of far too many of today’s reporters. What should be done about it?
American businesses are managing the changing tariff landscape by attempting re-shoring projects, but in their hurry, are they remembering to fully manage the other issues raised by re-shoring?
The cost of military action is real. But there are times – and the Iran situation is exactly such a time – when the cost of inaction is infinitely greater than the cost of action.
The greatest president of them all, George Washington – surveyor, planter, trader, legislator, executive, and soldier – had no “higher education” at all. How ever did he manage it?
The reciprocal and fentanyl tariffs have been overturned, and the Trump administration is responding. How should the individual business respond to this latest disruption?
Soon, the Supreme Court is expected to rule on President Trump’s use of IEEPA provisions in the creation of “reciprocal tariffs.” How they rule is at least in part based on a single question: Does the current state of the American economy constitute an “emergency?”
There are many foreign entanglements that America should avoid. Fixing the 47-year disaster in Iran is not among them. The time has come to free the world from the malevolence of the mullahs.
Why does the mainstream press report that a woman committed a mass murder, when it was immediately known that the perpetrator was a man in a dress? The mainstream press has its reasons, and they go far beyond school shootings.
It is now a half century since Governor Jimmy Carter took the Democratic primaries by storm in the spring of 1976, winning the Democratic presidential nomination away from much smarter, much more talented candidates
As part of his strategy for isolating the radical mullah-ruled government of Iran in the world community, President Trump has announced plans to issue a 25% tariff against all countries that continue to do business with the current Iranian regime. This is a counterproductive approach for three reasons. First, and most immediately, this kind of …
As the Left screams louder and louder that the taxpayers have no right to run our own federal agencies, all it does is embolden the rest of us to respond, “Oh, Yes We Do.”
The Trump administration did what it needed to do, collecting the Venezuelan dictator in the early hours of a Saturday morn, and bringing him back to the United States, starting the process for a long-awaited regime change in Venezuela at last.
Historians, political scientists, and philosophers alike often look at revolutions and ask the question “Was it a simple coup d’etat, or a real popular revolution? And if a real popular revolution, just how ‘popular’ was it, really?”
The news stories at the end of the calendar year are different from the news stories the rest of the year. From mid-December through mid-January, there’s a different kind of article that fills the newspapers and floods our websites: the year-end summary.
