In case you missed it, President George W. Bush re-entered American politics by equating Trump voters with the 19 murderers who hijacked the four planes and used them to kill 3,000 Americans.
On August 18, President Biden sat down for an interview with ABC's George Stephanopoulos. He was asked directly if U.S. troops would stay in Afghanistan until every American who wanted to leave could do so.
Founding Fathers were concerned the military could become more powerful than the civilian-run government and as such put in place several safeguards to ensure the power of the people wouldn't be overruled by overreaching, well-armed, well-trained, war-like types.
The Biden presidency sets a bad precedent, period ("Majority thinks Biden's COVID-19 vaccine mandate sets a bad precedent, poll shows," Web, Sept. 13). By electing Biden, the U.S. has lowered the standards for future presidential candidates.
Israel has one major impediment: It is a modern, liberal democracy with a rule of law and a morality that dates back 3,500 years ("Bennett visits el-Sissi for talks at Red Sea resort," World, Sept. 14). Its neighbors are autocratic, tribal peoples who employ violence as their preferred mode of diplomacy. Arab loyalty is to the family first, then to the clan. The attachment to a nation or nationality is more remote.
The NFL allowing the playing of the Black national anthem during opening week along with the National Anthem is just the latest version of modern society ignoring history. This history includes Jim Crow laws and the 1954 Supreme Court ruling against 'separate but equal.'
Twenty-twenty-two is just around the corner, and though I do not know much about monuments, I do know about elections.
The comparisons between the fall of Paris in 1940 and the recent taking of Kabul are striking. It is instructive to compare the Taliban with the Nazis.
Polls show most Americans would like to be their own boss. The upcoming reconciliation bill could dash those dreams. One provision would make it almost impossible for many Americans to work independently.
Blaming the Trump administration may win you favor with Democrats, but it doesn't equate to the truth.
History may be seen as a series of trying and tumultuous events -- tragic times of loss and sorrow.
IIf you thought President Joe Biden's foreign policy and Afghan withdrawal were disasters, wait until you see the tax increase details of what the congressional Democrats and the Biden administration are now preparing.
President Biden believes the federal government, under the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), has the purview to mandate COVID-19 vaccinations.
Joe Biden has persistently and purposely reversed effective border policies implemented by former President Trump to pursue a radical, open border, pro-amnesty agenda.
Fed Chairman Powell is caught between surging inflation and progressive Democrats lobbying President Biden to replace him with someone more amenable to their social justice agenda.
Steve Stricker and Padraig Harrington have been Ryder Cup captains for nearly three years, long enough to know not every decision they make is going to be popular. Deciding whether they were the right moves won't start until the Ryder Cup is over.
We need not only fear fear itself. We should fear the Biden administration as well.
Poll after poll after poll shows the growing pushback against Team Biden -- the growing buyer's remorse for President Biden. And Biden's globalist partners at the U.N. and elsewhere are now themselves growing anxious. After all, how to take over the world when America may not play?
For years it seems I have been completely wrong about the character and resolve of Canadians and Australians. I had thought their heroics during World War II meant they were made of solid stuff, but after they allowed their governments to virtually disarm them following the strange appearance of COVID-19, it's as though both nations got chemically castrated.
As of this week, 63% of the adult population in the United States has received at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine, and 54% are fully vaccinated. Per the National Institutes of Health, by the end of 2020 a third of the U.S. population (100 million) had natural immunity from having contacted COVID-19 and survived. As of today, I would imagine there at least 30 million more who have natural immunity. I have found no data on the overlap of those who have natural immunity and have also been vaccinated. I am sure there are some.
