Injunction Junction: What’s Your Function?
The Supreme Court established the principle of judicial review more than 200 years ago (via Marbury vs. Madison, 1803). This previously undiscovered principle expanded the power of the Judicial Branch dramatically, arguably beyond what was originally intended. The Supreme Court retained this power thereafter. Then about sixty years ago, the judiciary’s power expanded further asContinue reading “Injunction Junction: What’s Your Function?”
Which Way Now?
The selection of a new pope matters to those of all faiths, not just Catholics. Many non-Catholic friends and acquaintances have commented on this latest selection. They want to know what we Catholics think of this new pope. Few religious leaders today are recognized or heard by Americans, but the pope remains in a differentContinue reading “Which Way Now?”
Christian and American
“Christian Nationalist” has become a pejorative term. Many Christians are patriotic and believe American values overlap with Christian values. Combine these two terms and liberals claim we have recreated Frankenstein’s monster. Preface “Christian Nationalist” with “White” and many become doubly alarmed. There should be no stigma attached to either term; however, a liberal ideology hasContinue reading “Christian and American”
Judges Gone Wild
Roughly 4,000 illegal immigrants have been deported weekly during the second Trump Administration. The vast majority of deportations have been non-controversial; however, a DC District Court judge started a controversy by attempting to turn around a flight of illegal immigrants associated with a Venezuelan criminal gang being deported by the administration. timeline-us-flight-to-el-salvador 5:45PM: A flight (GlobalXContinue reading “Judges Gone Wild”
Where is the Corruption?
My last post lamented our nation’s four year trial with a cognitively diminished Joe Biden in the White House corruption-is-the-problem. Why did America tolerate someone in Biden’s state leading the country? Why did so many politicians and media brazenly lie to us about his condition–as if we were too stupid to comprehend the truth? WhyContinue reading “Where is the Corruption?”
Corruption is the Problem
CNN journalist Jake Tapper’s new book, “Original Sin” is sub-titled: “President Biden’s Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again.” He, his family, and his senior aides were so convinced that only he could beat Trump again, they lied to themselves, allies, and the public about his condition and limitations. At his debateContinue reading “Corruption is the Problem”
Peace for Ukraine?
Determining what is actually happening in Ukraine, or more importantly, what will happen next, has been a puzzlement the last three years. The war began in February 2022. Initially, we feared Russia would overwhelm the smaller Ukraine, but Russia has not proven to be the military power many claimed they were. Ukraine heroically pushed back,Continue reading “Peace for Ukraine?”
Golden Hammer or Constitutional Crisis (An Insider’s View)?
President Trump has moved with alacrity to eliminate inefficiencies and corruption in government. Even before Inauguration Day, the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) was being staffed so they could start cutting day one. dogegov.com: Our mission is to decentralize the narrative around government spending, giving power back to the people to hold government entities accountableContinue reading “Golden Hammer or Constitutional Crisis (An Insider’s View)?”
Election Problems Still?
The period between Election Day 2024 and Inauguration Day two-and-a-half months later was remarkably calm and uneventful. On January 6, 2025, no states were contested in Congress. This was the first time since 1988 (when President George H.W. Bush defeated Governor Michael Dukakis) that Democrats failed to contest a Republican presidential victory. Most Americans seemContinue reading “Election Problems Still?”
