Preserving American Values
Our nation stands under attack … not from without but from within. American values, our politics, and our culture have been corrupted.

I previously wrote in a post that Donald Trump will do and say anything he feels he needs to in order to get what he wants. He has no morality or ethics. It’s all transactional. The end definitely justifies the means for him. The New York Times pointed out several days ago that the one group that Trump cannot…

Last week, after being harangued and bashed by President Trump, Senator Murkowski (R-AK) said what all Republican Senators should say and what should govern their actions. “With all due respect, Mr. President,” she reportedly told him, “I didn’t come here to represent the Republican Party. I am representing my constituents and the state of Alaska.”…

The subject of leaks is very hot at the moment. It’s easy to say that Republicans are infuriated about recent leaks because they are embarrassing and hamper their ability to govern. But there is a larger question here. When are leaks warranted, and when are they not? But first, what is a “leak.” My definition of leak is…

Contrary to what The New York Times stated, if Democrats are demoralized about their loss in the Georgia special election it is their own fault. To think that this district might possibly be in play was pure illusion. Yes, Trump did not do particularly well there. But to anticipate that a solidly Republican district would turn on the President in…

It’s one thing to say, “America First.” It’s another to be simplistic in its application and have no understanding of what that phrase really means. “America First” raises two issues regarding Trump’s action of taking the U.S. out of the Paris climate accords. The first is, even assuming for argument’s sake that our participating in the…

If I see another article saying that Democrats have got to find a message to win back Congress and the White House, rather than just being anti-Trump, I’m going to scream. Today in The New York Times and in a recent New Yorker, the call was for Democratic candidates with “the ability to articulate what…

Something smells about the firing of FBI Director Comey. If you look at the sequence of events, the facts do not seem to support the reason given for the firing, but instead more strongly argue that it was done to stop or influence the FBI investigation into Trump campaign officials’ contacts with Russians regarding Russia’s attempt…

As Democrats engage in special elections and prepare for the 2018 midterms, it is vital that they change the way they address the abortion issue. This post is not about changing Democrats’ unwavering support of Roe v Wade and a woman’s right to choose. What this post is about is how Democrats discuss this controversial…
