Save Freedom of Worship
G.K. Chesterton said, “The true soldier fights not because he hates what is in front of him, but because he loves what is behind him.” His quote comes to mind after I inherited a box of family paraphernalia upon the death of my dear sister, who suddenly suffered a massive heart attack in 2015. The contents include a series of letters my father wrote my mother – before they married in 1948 –…

The Free-Market Populism of Javier Milei
Javier Milei is a rock star. The president of Argentina was, in fact, in a Rolling Stones cover band as a teen. But now he plays stadiums — like Buenos Aires’ 8,400-capacity Luna Park — as a political phenomenon, a charismatic cross between Donald Trump and Milton Friedman. Except that Milei, a former economics professor himself, is more free-market than Friedman, in theory at least.

MSNBC: Darn Voters Don't Understand How Dangerous Trump Is!
The panel of MSNBC's The Weekend expresses its great frustration over voters not being sufficiently scared by Trump's rhetoric, and thus not stampeded into supporting Biden.
