    Islamist Ilhan Omar: her loyalty is to Somalia alone (forget dual loyalty canard)

    Ilhan Omar makes no bones about it: her loyalty is to Somalia alone. She is facing calls for her resignation after, critics say, she promised to do all she could to prevent a Somaliland deal with (Christian) Ethiopia over access to the sea. End Wokeness @EndWokeness: Ilhan Omar tells a crowd...

    Biden will not be impeached.

    Within our current political climate, I don't doubt that a majority of Republican house members would vote to impeach President Biden. Why Not? Those congressional members were favored by the same foolish voters that favored Donald Trump in 2016 AND 2020. [In 2016 and again in 2020, the...

    Federal Minimum Wage.

    The Federal Minimum Wage. The U.S. Dollar (as all nations' currencies), is of variable value within time. That's why USA's Social Security retirement benefits are annually adjusted to a cost-price index). Congressional Democrats had previously submitted a proposal, (H.R. 582, 1st session of...

    There is a reason the Democrats don't want anyone to read their bills

    Remember when Nancy Pelosi infamously stated, "we have to pass the bill before we can find out what's in it"? Democrats stuff bills full of illegal, immoral, and unaffordable nonsense that no rational human would ever pass if they got to read the bill in its entirety before voting on it. We're...

    Democratic congressional leadership failures.

    Democratic congressional leadership failures. The federal minimum wage rate, and all of sponsored Democrat congressional members proposals to modify that rate, are expressed as in terms of U.S. Dollars. The U.S dollar is not of a constant value; thus a minimum wage rate' value determined by and...

    Reform: The Legislation Edition

    The left has turned the federal government into an oppressive legislation machine - just churning out an endless new array of "you can't do this either" 24x7x365. Legislation should be passed only when it is absolutely necessary. Of course, the litmus test for that will be near nonexistent for...

    Bad precedent to penalize Greene

    Bad precedent to penalize Greene.

    Congressional votes of censure.

    Congressional votes of censure. A Congressional House or Senate vote of censure has little if any legal standing within federal law.

    Iran, Declaration of War, and Congress

    I don't believe they have yet, but what scenario would play out should Iran declare a "state of war" against the US? According to the War Powers Act, Congress alone has the ability to declare war. Although, the War Powers Act was ignored by President Obama on two separate occasions, once in...

    The extreme division between the Democrats & Republicans

    What troubles me greatly is the wide division in this country politically at this time. It seems to be the worst division that has ever existed between the two parties since 1945.
