Well, I suspect that this commentary is going to get me some nasty push back. That is because we have a romantic notion that teaching is a sacrosanct profession – the most sacred of sacred cows in the world of professional employment. We see them as underpaid, overworked sacrificing guardians...
See Part I of this series here. In 1969, a young Hillary Rodham wrote a 92-page college thesis for Wellesley College about "community organizer" Saul Alinsky. If you recall, Saul Alinsky wrote the infamous book "Rules for Radicals." While the thesis was said to be critical of Alinsky's methods, we...
Last week I wrote a rather tongue in cheek article suggesting that Trump may have been trolling the Democrats by starting the Ukraine 'scandal' himself, just to circulate the word about Biden's crimes. But despite wishing it were true, I didn't really believe it. An op like that is way...

Prime Minister Boris Johnson has done the impossible: he has convinced the EU to renegotiate the Brexit agreement after the bloc said it would never renegotiate. Now, he just has to get the deal through Parliament. “Now is the moment for us to get Brexit done and then together work...
Vice President Mike Pence has announced that Turkey agreed on Thursday to pause its eight day war in order that the Kurdish YPG militia could evacuate the area. Pence and Secretary of State Pompeo met with Turkey's President Tayyip Erdogan on Thursday to hammer out a deal. President Trump had...
The prospect of impeaching President Trump has no comparison in American history – and it will both divide the nation and stoke the fires of partisan hostility unlike any time since the Civil War. The impeachment of Democrat President Andrew Johnson by the Radical Republicans in Congress following the Civil War...
One of the major areas of criticism of former President Obama was his weak foreign policy. It made America less fearsome to our adversaries. North Korea moved headlong into the nuclear military age with little to no push back. Russia invaded Ukraine and took over the Crimea – a standoff that...
