If the economy is so good, why do small business leaders feel so bad? The latest Small Business Optimism Index from the National Federation of Independent Business could hardly be more depressing. The survey finds that the men and women who run our 33 million small businesses and hire more than half of American workers are in […]

The global warming crowd would like nothing better than to convince you that we are in a climate crisis and that they need to grab COVID-like emergency powers to dictate how you live your life. If it were not for the sinister nature of the movement, which wishes to control everything from the way we cook, drive, eat, our power sources, and the like, it would be amusing that they think their efforts to curtail C02, amidst all the other independent variables that are completely out of their control, can create what they imagine as the perfect climate. They will fail to meaningfully change the climate but they may well succeed in taking our freedom, destroying all economic prosperity and impoverishing Americans.

As the University of Arizona goes, so goes Tucson, the city where the university is located. As Tucson goes, so goes the University of Arizona (UA). Things haven’t been going very well for either of them. Both have been operating well below their potential for a long time, and both are suffering from problems that […]

The last few years can be tracked at two levels: the physical reality around us and the realm of the intellectual, mental, and psychological. The first level has presented a chaotic narrative of the previously unthinkable. A killer virus that turned out to be what many people said it was in February 2020: a bad […]

The Federal Reserve is an unelected board of bureaucratic experts that holds great sway over the US economy, the world economy, and the standard of living of the people of the United States. Because of the arcane nature of its work, its responsibilities are not something we would want under the sway of political operatives. […]
A recent Wall Street Journal column on the scam of the federal student-loan program brought to mind the financial, governance, and ethical mess at the University of Arizona (UA). The Arizona Daily Star’s coverage of the UA mess has been commendable, thanks to reporter Ellie Wolfe. A Pulitzer Prize awaits her if she ties UA’s […]

Editors’ Note: Democrats cast themselves as the party of “women’s rights”, while they actually are the party of unrestricted abortion to be paid for with public money. We hope the knowledge of this most recent decision will change the minds of not only Arizona women, but women across the nation. By using school lunch money […]

Of course, they are not really “illegals” as they should properly be referred to as “undocumented immigrants,” “unauthorized immigrants,” “non-citizens,” “without status,” and/or “unlawfully present.” As the Left stumbles over the correct characterization of people who have entered this country with no compliance to our national laws and remain here despite their continuing non-compliance, the […]

Most Americans will remember Dr. Deborah Birx as the “scarf lady” who served on the White House’s Covid Response Team beginning in February 2020. According to a recently-released (but little-seen) 24-minute mini-documentary, it was Birx – even more so than Anthony Fauci – who was responsible for government “guidelines,” almost all of which proved to be unnecessary and disastrous for […]
