Order Isn't Oppression, It's Mercy

Midterms '26: No Room for GOP Overconfidence

Minneapolis May Be the Radical 'Woke' Left's Last Gasp

Blocking Institutional Investors from Housing Will Worsen Shortage
The median home price is now $415,000. 30- and 40-somethings are having a tough time buying a first home. Democrats and some populist Republicans have convinced the Trump administration to pin the blame on institutional investors.

The question now pending before the New Orleans-based Fifth Circuit, where I once served as a law clerk, is whether the Ten Commandments laws may once again be enforced so that the Decalogue can hang on all classroom walls throughout Texas and Louisiana.
America at Its 'Dr. Zhivago' Moment in Time

'HOT' Tax Would Let Liberals Pay More, Sparing Everyone Else

50-Yr. Mortgage Prolongs Term, Doesn't Solve Affordability
The 50-year mortgage doesn't address housing affordability. It merely prolongs the mortgage term; offers little in the way of monthly payment relief. Government planners would do better to focus on restrictive zoning practices that reduce housing density, increasing costs.
'Thank You for Your Service' Still Matters
The culture of the United States military reflects a deep understanding of mission and honor. That understanding is rooted in purpose and moral clarity. When military service is guided by principle, it unites. When it is misused or shaped by dictatorship, it breeds fear and division.
