It Is a Time for Choosing (Again)
Sixty years ago this week, Ronald Reagan delivered a speech in support of Barry Goldwater’s presidential bid. It was dubbed “A Time for Choosing.” Re-reading the speech, or watching it on YouTube, is a reminder how little has changed in six decades.

KJP Deflects When GRILLED by Fox’s Heinrich, Lawrence on the Economy
On Thursday, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was lucky to have softballs from liberal journalists discounting the mass, unfettered immigration puts on small towns, schools, and social services like in Springfield, Ohio as, leaving those aside, she was hit with searing questions on the economy and government spending by Fox’s Jacqui Heinrich and Edward Lawrence.

From Great Orators to Gobbledygook
Once in America – and in some parts of the world – we were gifted by great orators, men and women who could by the power and content of their words inspire, motivate and sometimes unify their nations.
