Look up “grace under pressure” in the dictionary and you will find a picture of Lee Zeldin, proof that the vitality of Theodore Roosevelt still abides.

The Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision is both smaller than it looks and bigger than it looks. But its underlying solution to the abortion debate is huge.

If a target is “soft,” that means it’s vulnerable. So let’s protect targets by hardening them, starting with schools.

If Republicans make the upcoming midterm election about Democratic performance, Democrats will be sorry.

Robert C. McFarlane served his country in actual combat in Vietnam and later in political combat in three White Houses, where he helped defeat the “evil empire” without firing a single shot. He deserves to be remembered as a hero, not as a left-wing media target.

At first, Democrats hoped they were winning on the abortion issue, and now they fear they are losing. So anything could happen.

We have three choices in dealing with Big Tech: like it the way it is, break it up, or fix it. Fixing it is the best course.

It would be unfair to accuse all Democrats of being groomers; but, as the saying goes, the flak is heaviest when you’re over the target.

In a classic David vs. Goliath tale, the Amazon workers in Staten Island, New York, beat union-busting billionaire Jeff Bezos to form a union. Here are five things to watch as this battle royale over unionization unfolds.

Battered by rising energy prices, the Biden administration is now talking a good game about increasing supply and reducing prices. And yet it is still acting with, well, a forked tongue—that is, loudly cheering for more energy while still quietly seeking to limit it.

An effective American president would increase U.S. energy, thereby reducing the funds Putin is using to kill Ukrainians. But while Russia is waging a hot war in Ukraine, the Democrats are more interested in waging World War E.

Why did Putin invade Ukraine now? One reason is that he could afford to thanks to money Biden inadvertently helped him accumulate.

Desperate Senate Democrats propose a temporary federal gas tax cut to undo some of the inflationary damage they’ve done. But don’t worry, they don’t really mean it. The tax cut, that is.

So long as people value freedom—including the freedom to be funny and to laugh—P.J. O’Rourke will have a place in the pantheon.

After the failure of his Build Back Better legislation, the Fed Reserve is Biden’s preferred mechanism for advancing his version of the Great Reset. And his woke Fed nominees are the key to this strategy.

Joe Biden is reviving Barack Obama’s “pen and phone” strategy to bypass Congress and advance the Party of Davos “Great Reset.”

Here are some data points that tell the tale about Joe Biden and his party.

Joe Biden may regard his Chief of Staff Ron Klain as a convenient scapegoat, but the problem isn’t Klain—it’s Biden.

The commander-in-chief is playing for some very high stakes in the geopolitical arena and against some sharp players, notably Russia’s Vladimir Putin. Unfortunately for the U.S., Joe Biden has never had much self-discipline, and even more unfortunately, he’s gotten old. 

The ultra-violence of the 1981 movie “Escape From New York” was a Hollywood production. And yet today, a George Soros-funded prosecutor in New York City wants to bring reel life to real life.

The Democrats’ threat to pack the Supreme Court might not succeed as legislation, but it could work as intimidation as the Court takes up that could overturn Roe v. Wade.

On this Pearl Harbor Day, we remember Bob Dole’s service to the nation in World War Two, as well as the service and the sacrifice of all the members of the Greatest Generation.

The Biden climate agenda is the Green New Deal in disguise. For American greens, it’s climate first. For Chinese leaders, it’s China first.

Joe Biden is following Jimmy Carter’s playbook of restricting production, increasing inflation, and practicing demagoguery.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has just won a big victory—or did she? A dozen years ago, she persuaded House Democrats to vote for a bill that the Democratic Senate was afraid to pass, and that helped lead to the Democratic wipeout in 2010. Could history repeat itself in 2022?

The Biden administration’s climate “deal” with China is no deal at all for Americans. But climate czar John Kerry likes it, and he’s the one who speaks for the real power in the Democratic Party—the green billionaires.

The city of Austin’s refusal to allow a Veterans Day parade should remind us that patriotism must be taught. Our nation will always need valiant soldiers, and paying our debt to the past is our best investment for a secure future.

The passage of Joe Biden’s $550 billion Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework (BIF) is a game-changer, although it might not change the game in the way that Democrats want.

Why does Joe Biden want to give nearly half-a-million dollars to non-citizens? Yes, it’s a nutty plan, but there’s a method and actually a strategy to Biden’s madness.

Here are five quick takeaways from Glenn Youngkin’s victory in Virginia.

The Biden White House’s new gender and transgender crazed “national strategy document” is a knife against normal people and a sword in the hand of Republicans.

Joe Biden has two bad ideas now: boosting inflation and hurting job-creation. And he wants to add a third bad idea: increased welfare dependency.

Joe Biden’s Build Back Better plan might be stalled in Congress, but Hunter Biden’s Build Back Bigger (as in bigger bank account) plan seems to be going quite nicely.

Joe Biden has let the left wing of his party run away with his presidency. The latest case in point is the infrastructure bill fiasco.

Just as with Jimmy Carter before him, Joe Biden is having a hard time managing his coalition. The latest flashpoint issue is immigration. Yet even as he struggles to keep Democrats in his tent, the rest of the country is drifting away.

The rich play by the rules they like for themselves and seek to make the rest of us live by the rules they wish to impose.
