Citizen Writers Fighting Censorship by Helping Americans Understand Issues Affecting the Republic.
Michael Knowles discusses reports that the Trump administration is drafting plans to subsidize stay-at-home parents. He calls it one of the best policies to come out of the administration.

Last Tuesday, the US’s debt passed the $40 trillion mark.
DC enjoys ignoring the debt almost as much as it loves piling it up. But that grim mile marker forced some of DC’s denizens to extrude some fake concern.
The tenor of which was almost entirely that of innocent bystanders – rather than that of the malevolent participants they all are:
Our income is under attack from both the right and left. The socialist left wants corporate profits to be restricted with higher taxes while the Trump administration has been intimidating corps to lower prices – both plans mean less income to pay their shareholders. Corporations use their gross income (profit before tax) for capital improvements and research. What remains after taxes is paid out as dividends to the owners (stockholders). Anyone who has common stock – either personally, in trust or in a retirement account – is at risk of losing income when publicly traded companies encounter reduced profits.
Another week has flown by, and who knows what’s really going on? Certainly not the media. Or if they do, they’re not saying. Don knows, though, and he’ll make you laugh and think as he attempts to explain.
Donald Trump is reconstructing his tariff wall after it was struck down by the Supreme Court.
Yesterday – on Sunday, because the Internet never rests? I received in my inbox an op-ed from Larry Kudlow.
For those of you who don’t know…:
“Lawrence Alan Kudlow is an American conservative broadcast news analyst, economist, columnist, journalist, political commentator, and radio personality. He is a financial news commentator for Fox Business and served as the director of the National Economic Council during the Trump administration from 2018 to 2021.”
I’ve met Larry. He is a very nice guy.
That said: Kudlow is a standard-issue Washington, DC center-right economy guy. He is exactly the type of Republican economist – that is killing the Republican Party.
Kudlow’s economic messaging – is the Republicans’ economic messaging. And it is more tone deaf than a year’s worth of nationwide karaoke contests.
Rep. Brandon Gill, R-Texas, weighs in on Wisconsin’s Democratic gubernatorial primary and the impact of mass migration on ‘The Will Cain Show.’
American Action Forum president Douglas Holtz-Eakin and Evenflow Macro managing partner Marc Sumerlin evaluate the Trump administration’s economic policy on ‘Kudlow.’
The U.S. economy surprisingly shed jobs in July, and it’s leading investors to think that an interest rate hike by the Federal Reserve in September is increasingly unlikely.
The US’s Artificial Intelligence (AI) self-feeding frenzy is still…frenzy-ing.
Except everything about it seems fake.
The US’s Large Language Model (LLM) version of AI seems to be (at least) years away from the promises being made to feed the frenzy.
Which can be seen as a partially good thing – since no one has any idea what to do with the hundreds of millions of humans they tell us US AI will un-employ.
Let me open with the sentence that is going to make several people very uncomfortable before I have even finished my coffee.
The minimum wage is a Jim Crow law. Not “Jim Crow adjacent.” Not “has some racist history if you squint.” An actual, documented, still-functioning mechanism for locking people out of the labor market and into government dependency — built by the same coalition, defended by the same party, and producing the same outcome it was engineered to produce a century ago.
Dave and Sarah had committed the cardinal sin of being responsible adults. They owned a home. They had a car that was paid off. They had $3,200 in a savings account — money they’d been scraping together for years to have SOMETHING in case of emergency. And now the emergency was here, and the government said, “Sorry, you’re too rich for help.”
The debate over money in politics is defined by a core tension between the ideals of transparency, privacy, and mandated disclosure. Proponents of robust transparency and disclosure requirements (especially America Firsters) argue that voters have a fundamental right to know who is funding candidates, parties, and issue advocacy, as undisclosed “dark money” from wealthy individuals, corporations, unions, or foreign-linked entities can distort democratic outcomes, enable corruption or undue influence, and facilitate implementation of leftwing policies funded by US taxpayers without authorization or scrutiny. They push for lower reporting thresholds, real-time disclosures, and the closing of loopholes like super PACs and 501(c) organizations to let sunlight act as a disinfectant.
The Democrat “Big Tent” Party has now welcomed and embraced domestic enemies into their camp. And their numbers are growing. They are members of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), and they are hiding in plain sight, concealing the consequences of their agenda.
A ‘Kudlow’ panel discusses how President Donald Trump’s economic policies led to increased household income and lower inflation compared to the Biden administration.

For thousands of enthusiasts who made their way to Columbus, Ohio, the weekend of June 25 through 27, 2026, was one of those rare occasions when passion takes the wheel.
