As promised, on day one of his administration, Donald Trump took pen in hand and signed a mound of executive orders in a flurry of cursive penmanship. Here are my favorites. I hope all will become permanent law someday. Of course, that will be up to Congress. In the meantime, …
Looking back on the last four years, I feel like I have been mucking a giant pile of manure out of a barn. The more I shoveled, the higher the pile of manure got. There didn’t seem to be any end to the execrable crap being dispensed by the Biden …
Today, I am reposting a column by author and Wall Street Journal columnist Peggy Noonan in which she shares some poignant thoughts about life as we enter the new year. This particular column appeared in her Signposts on the Wisdom Trail column. As for me, I will return to posting …
Well, what do you know?

Last Friday’s bout was like watching an exasperated grandfather chase his bratty grandson around the …
America’s legacy media are in big trouble. Newspapers are losing record print circulation, morning and nightly network news shows are hemorrhaging viewers, and cable news outlets are losing audiences at a record rate. So what’s going on? As someone who spent almost 30 years toiling in the newspaper world and …
