Within the past year, the United States and France both elected new presidents. In each election, many of the same issues were at the forefront, such as national security, immigration, climate change, and the economy. To deal with these pressing policy challenges, the American people elected the ultimate political outsider to reform a broken federal […]
By David N. Bossie President Donald Trump was elected our nation’s 45th president not beholden to Washington or any special interest in its swamp. President Trump is a change agent unlike any President the American people have ever seen. He’s the first non-politician to be elected president since General Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1952. President […]
“We are pleased the Supreme Court has unanimously ruled that President Trump’s immigration executive order can take effect with limited exceptions. From the beginning, we have said that the executive order is constitutional because it was issued as a national security precaution. The President of the United States must be able to secure the homeland […]
The First Amendment is under assault in America by the intolerant left. A growing number of younger Americans on our college campuses believe it is appropriate to ban speech that they disagree with, are offended by, or find politically incorrect. It’s a slippery slope that has caused several state legislatures to move legislation aiming to […]

This month, the balance of President Trump’s Cabinet will be confirmed, Judge Neil Gorsuch will continue on his smooth path to Senate confirmation, and voting on the big ticket items […]
President Trump’s detractors are bent on forcing him into a fire sale of his vast business empire, arguing his ownership of various assets violates the Foreign Emoluments Clause of the U.S. Constitution. That clause prohibits federal officials from accepting “any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or Foreign […]
Democrats should think twice before using parliamentary tactics to delay or block President-elect Donald Trump’s forthcoming nominee for the Supreme Court.

As Congress and the Obama White House work to enact a funding bill to avoid yet another possible government shutdown, a rift has developed within the conservative community. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell would like to repeal the limits on how much political parties may spend in coordination with their candidates. The congressional Freedom Caucus […]
Donald Trump is right. We are at war and our homeland security and immigration policies are a complete mess. The Syrian refugee issue and the Islamic terrorist attacks in Paris and San Bernardino have kick-started a much needed debate and have brought some alarming information to the American people. It starts with basic government incompetence […]
Quentin Tarantino must be concerned about the prospects of his upcoming movie, The Hateful Eight. Why else would he go on television last week to backtrack and claim he’s “not anti-police” and “not a cop-hater”?
