ALAN KEYES — President Trump continues to refine the substance behind the "Wall" meme he has used so effectively to dramatize the urgent need to regain control of our nation's southern border. In an article I wrote in January of last year, I observed and supported his efforts to do so:... (more)

PETER LEMISKA — "Monolithic" is one word often used to describe the Democrat Party. Whether it's universal health care, abortion, or opposition to President Trump, Democrats invariably stand united.

TIMOTHY BUCHANAN — Time was, that Democrats would wait for their promises to be forgotten before allowing them to be exposed as lies. But this is new era of overt fraudulence and unrestrained hostility, and liberals are desperate to reclaim power. Incoming House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi gave a speech this week in which she promised transparency and bipartisanship after accepting the speaker's gavel from Republican Congressman Kevin McCarthy.

JOSEPH FARAH — 1. "Trump has not risen to the mantle of the office." This cheap shot from Mitt Romney actually came in 2019, but I suspect it was a brazen untruth scripted in 2018. Furthermore, I couldn't wait another year for the 2019 list. Romney is clearly gunning for another shot at the big show. This will not help him in the least. All it does is show us there's one more Republican vote in the Senate right-thinking Americans cannot count on.... (more)
