President Trump’s recent executive orders barring transgender individuals from competing in women’s sports and restricting their access to the military aren’t about hate, discrimination, or exclusion—they’re about fairness, reality, and national security. These policies reaffirm something that an overwhelming majority of Americans—regardless of political affiliation—already understand: biological differences matter. Despite what the radical left would…
Elon Musk, DOGE, and the Battle for Government Accountability
So, Elon Musk—one of the world’s richest men and the guy responsible for electric cars, reusable rockets, and free speech on X (formerly Twitter)—has been handed access to the federal government’s financial systems. Not only that, but he’s leading a task force called the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE)—because, of course, he couldn’t resist naming…
Delaying a Special Election: A Cost-Saving Measure or Political Power Play?
Politics is full of hypocrisy, and this latest move by New York Democrats is just another chapter in the same old book. With Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) expected to step down from Congress to serve as the next U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, her solidly Republican district in upstate New York will soon be…
Taking Back the Panama Canal: Reasserting American Strength in the Western Hemisphere
When President Trump declared in his inaugural address that the United States would "take back" the Panama Canal, he wasn’t just tossing out rhetoric—he was reigniting a debate that has smoldered for decades. The canal, one of the greatest engineering marvels in human history, was never just a construction project. It was a bold assertion…
Trump’s Reckless Gaza Plan: Foolish, Yet Hints at a Larger Truth
Donald Trump is, if nothing else, consistent. His latest proposal to take control of Gaza and rebuild it as an American project is just the latest example of his signature blend of brash, thoughtless rhetoric and occasional accidental insight. The suggestion that the United States, fresh off the disastrous occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan, should…
USAID, Foreign Aid, and the Fight for Accountability: A Christian Conservative Perspective
The recent controversy surrounding the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is not just another bureaucratic turf war—it’s a glimpse into a deeper problem of unaccountable government, ideological overreach, and the reckless misuse of taxpayer dollars. The question at the heart of this debate is simple: Should America’s…
Trump’s Tariff Gambit: Strength, Strategy, or Showmanship?
President Trump’s decision to suspend tariffs on Mexico and Canada in exchange for commitments on border security and crime enforcement is a classic example of his America First approach to leadership. Unlike the typical career politicians in Washington—who have spent decades making trade deals that benefit everyone except American workers—Trump has never been afraid to…
Another Look at Trump’s Tariffs
President Trump’s sweeping new tariffs on Mexico, Canada, and China are quintessential Trump—bold, disruptive, and unapologetically America First. The man is not afraid to throw down the gauntlet, and his message is clear: secure the border, stop fentanyl, and bring manufacturing back home—or pay the price. The question is, will this work? Will these tariffs…
Trump’s Tariffs: A Bold Move for America or the Start of a Costly Trade War?
On February 1, 2025, President Trump announced significant new tariffs: a 25% tariff on imports from Canada and Mexico and a 10% tariff on imports from China. The administration justifies these tariffs as necessary to curb illegal immigration, combat the influx of fentanyl, and strengthen domestic industries. This decision has sent shockwaves through international markets,…
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and HHS: Why Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester (Surprisingly) Got It Right
Well, well, well—every once in a blue moon, something happens in Washington that reminds me the Lord does indeed work in mysterious ways. Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester, a Democrat from my liberal-dominated state of Delaware, with whom I almost never agree, has decided to vote against Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s nomination to head the Department…
