To former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, the continuing failure of the Senate to repeal ObamaCare — as they promised they would — is a good reason to return the election of U.S. senators to the respective state legislatures.

trump-defers-to-advisors-on-iran-deal-again

When he was running for president, Donald Trump roundly criticized the Iran nuclear deal of President Barack Obama.

President Trump did this earlier this week when he certified  — for the second time — that Iran is in compliance.

The men in the fancy suits and the women in the expensive dresses at the recent G20 Summit may not look like campus radicals, but they often are just as much socialists as those overturning cars and smashing store windows outside the meeting.

Who Is "On the Wrong Side of History?”

who-is-on-the-wrong-side-of-history

In one sense, the use of the phrase "the wrong side of history" is just a version of the kids' "everyone else is doing it." At its worst, however, it is used to advance the very worst of the causes of the Left.
