Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse weighed in on the tense exchange between President Trump and Ukrainian President Zelenskyy, applauding European allies for uniting behind Ukraine and opposing Putin,
A series of critical inflection points led us to the point where we currently are with a strong central government with several corrupt and potentially criminal acts. If it was not the federal government, elements of the central government could be subject to RICO. The key inflection points center around the Progressive Era in the early 20th century and include the Wilsonian bureaucratic reforms, the 16th Amendment and the 17th Amendment to the Constitution. Real reform must address these areas. Otherwise DOGE may save some money this year, but will not fundamentally change how the government is structured or operates.
Today, I am Grand Marshal of the Dothan Mardi Gras parade. Truthfully, I don’t know what a grand marshal’s official duties entail, but apparently you are required to hold beer wherever you go.
A young man raised in Washington State did not know about the largest river in USA, which runs through WA. A man raised in NY didn’t know what “mouth of the river” meant. Both WA and NY are robbing children of a decent education.

Once upon a time in Ukraine, a comedian rose to fame playing a bumbling everyman who becomes president in a feel-good TV satire.
Once again the rapier wit of Don Surber looks at last week’s significant events and provides his own, somewhat ribald interpretation, while we experience a new day in Trump’s America
According to a CBS News price tracker, the average price of a dozen eggs is nearly double what it was last year, sending grocery bills soaring.
At a time when prices for everything from eggs to gasoline are high, I thought it might be interesting to share a list of commodities and services that are actually much cheaper than they once were when compared to dollar values and wages in the past. Will this take the sting out of today’s sky-high …
For centuries, science and faith were not at odds but interwoven in the pursuit of truth. The greatest minds of history—far from being skeptics—believed that the universe operated under divine laws set by the Creator and that studying nature was a way to understand God’s handiwork. No scientist embodies this tradition more than Isaac Newton, …
ABC News medical contributor Dr. Alok Patel delivers the latest on the measles outbreak that has spread to nine states.
King Solomon was one of the wisest men to ever walk the earth. Does his advice still hold true for us today?
In Genesis 2, we read about how God wants us to work. Verse 15, “And the Lord God took the man and put him into the Garden of Eden, to work it and keep it.” Gardening, farm work, yard work.
Finally, there will be a fourth kingdom, strong as iron—for iron shatters and breaks everything—and just as iron smashes everything, so will it shatter and crush all others.
Despite David’s sin, he was given a second chance in life. He can give you a second chance, too. Hear what Pastor Greg Laurie has to say about it now.
There’s nothing quite like the gut-wrenching realization that you are not in control of the world. You can hustle, plan, vote, save, and fight, but at the end of the day, your power is a fragile illusion.
Still reeling from the breakneck pace and audacity of President Donald Trump’s first two weeks in office, The New Republic’s Michael Tomasky made an intriguing comparison. “Trump 1.0,” he observed, “was a Jackson Pollock—splat splat all over the place. Trump 2.0 is painting within very precise lines. It’s terrifying.” Tomasky was right. In his first …
I wonder if it will be approved. At 10:56 AM EST on Friday I submitted a comment on The New York Times main editorial, “The MAGA WAR on Speech.” The Editorial Board is aghast that the Trump Administration has done radical things such as “The National Park Service (having) erased the letters T and Q: …
