The Consequences of Leftist Crime Policies

This week, a 39-year-old black man in Waukesha, Wisconsin, plowed a maroon Ford Escape into a Christmas parade of children and older women. Five people were killed and another 48 were injured. The motive of the suspect is unknown; if the media have their way, it will remain that way.

Saule Omarova Shouldn’t Be Overseeing Our Banks

It is ironic when Democrats complain about sensational use of language. Thanks to progressives, practically every white person in America has been labelled a racist.

How to ‘Persevere With Power’ in These Dark Times

Samuel Rodriguez, president of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference, says there’s a way to keep going in the face of encroaching darkness: Rely on your own faith and fortitude. “Your battle is truly between destiny and drama,” Rodriguez says. “And when your hunger for righteousness is greater than your fear of criticism, nothing can…

At Age 25, She Was Just Elected Mayor of Her Tiny Hometown in Pennsylvania

Brianna Howard says she never thought she would run for public office, but when no one else was on the ballot for mayor in her hometown of Mount Jewett, Pennsylvania, she rose to the challenge.  Howard ran as a write-in candidate, won, and will serve as mayor of the town for the next four years, beginning in January. Mount Jewett, located about 140 miles north of Pittsburgh, has a population of fewer than 1,000 people. “Rural Americans are, in a lot of ways, at a disadvantage, just because of their…
