Listening to President Trump’s address from the White House in which he predicted an economic boom in 2026, I was reminded of the Al Jolson-Gus Kahn song of the 1950s – “You Ain’t Heard Nothin’ Yet.”

While Jolson sang of courting a young lady in the lyrics, Trump was reiterating his love of America – America First – that was essentially the theme of his address as he reminded Americans how the policies in the Big Beautiful Bill he signed on the Fourth of July, will reap financial gains for us next year.… read more

Commentary

I closed my last edition mentioning that Democrats are going to repeatedly use the word “affordability” in their messaging, but if it’s like their use of the word “democracy” which they overused in 2024, we can imagine that it will not include solutions from their side.

Democrats seem to believe that their mere use of the word affordability alone will help them in their ill-advised attempt to attack President Trump on the economy, but people want lower prices, not more hits on Trump.… read more

I know, it’s been a while since I’ve published a commentary.  Chalk it up to a medical situation and, of course, Thanksgiving.  It doesn’t mean that I haven’t been piling notes on my stack of stuff.

However, before I give you my thoughts on those notes, I would be remiss if I didn’t recognize the milestone day in American history that this edition will appear in my readers’ inbox – December 7, 1941, the day the Japanese attacked our naval forces in Pearl Harbor.… read more

Former President Biden allowed some 20 million migrants to flow into our country, some with asylum promises but most of them illegally.  Now, not a day goes by that we don’t read about an illegal migrant responsible for killing someone in a vehicle accident, transporting drugs or involvement in a heinous killing.… read more

Commentary

I intended to provide insight into affordable housing and healthcare in my November 17, 2025, blog on affordability but my research resulted in so much material I quickly realized that to do justice to these subjects I needed the space to devote to them. I will be commenting on affordable healthcare soon.… read more

Commentary

Trump haters have found another means to make fools of themselves, forgetting that he won the election with an overwhelming majority despite their years of unsuccessful attempts to deny him the presidency.

Shamefully, six Democrat lawmakers with military and intelligence backgrounds released a one-minute video urging service members to “refuse illegal orders.” … read more

Commentary

Watching the gubernatorial winners in New Jersey and Virginia latch on to Zohran Mamdani’s pledge of making life affordable for New Yorkers and the resulting media pressure placed on President Trump on affordability, I decided it was time for me to address the issue.

As I began researching “affordability” as a political issue, I recalled that candidate Trump talked about it at rally after rally, but without calling for state-owned grocery stores, rent control, free bus service and other socialist freebees.… read more

Commentary

While “Lady Justice” has been known to move ever so slowly, she’s getting a bit of a boost from Attorney General Pam Bondi, who is zeroing in on those usual suspects, deep staters who were part of the weaponization of the Department of Justice with a mission of stopping candidate and President Trump.… read more

Commentary

Recently, I have had discussions with a few friends, who subscribe to this blog, primarily because I have noticed my readership has dipped.  Not over my thoughts on a single issue, but over weeks of writing on various issues.  One suggested that once Donald Trump got elected there was no reason to read it.… read more

Commentary

When former President Obama titled his 2006 book, “The Audacity of Hope,” he should have taken note of the dual definition of the word, audacity.  He chose it, I’m sure, for its references to boldness and daring, the “I am” individual he is.

During his weekend appearances for Democrat candidates in New York, New Jersey and Virginia, the content of his remarks reflected the definition of audacity I relate to Obama … imprudence, Impertinence and presumption.… read more
