President Donald Trump’s first three and a half weeks back in the White House have been remarkable in both pace and success. The president entered office raring to go with a clear vision of where he intends to take the country and is enacting his agenda with unprecedented transparency and precision.

It was President Ronald Reagan who famously said, “as government expands, liberty contracts.” Like with so many other things, Reagan was ahead of his time with this commonsense observation. A vast unchecked bureaucracy is indeed a direct assault on individual liberty — and tens of millions of Americans are adversely affected by it each and […]
President Trump is bringing smart American common sense back to the federal government, and not a moment too soon. For far too long, a wave of radical left-wing policies, regulations and irrational bureaucratic “norms” have been allowed to fester in hopes of altering the country we know and love into something unrecognizable. But on Jan. […]

Gov. Kathy Hochul promised a public “list” that would outline how New York would cooperate with federal immigration authorities under President Trump – but that list was never released.

The day after the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration detained 41 metro area illegal immigrants in a raid targeting Tren de Aragua — a Venezuelan gang Gov.

Dem Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker on Sunday vowed to “stand in the way’’ of certain Trump deportation policies, including those targeting “law-abiding’’ illegal migrants. “When we’re talking about violent criminals who’ve been convicted and who are undocumented, we don’t want them in our state,” Pritzker, 60, told CNN’s “State of the Union.” “We want them out of the […]
I was chief of staff of the Maryland Department of Budget and Management from 2015 until 2023, so I know something about the budget situation that outgoing Gov. Larry Hogan left incoming Gov. Wes Moore. Gov. Moore has claimed he inherited a fiscal crisis. I can only conclude that the governor and those closest to […]

The reckless policies and regulatory schemes of the radical left that the destructive Biden administration eagerly implemented over the past four years have damaged our great country.

Whether it’s irresponsible federal spending, a demoralized military, racist DEI programs, failing education standards, unaccountable deep state bureaucrats, or a […]
