… At Chasing Away the Golden Goose New York decided to punish success. High taxes, burdensome regulations, and endless attacks on productive people were supposed to fund bigger government and make things “fair.” Instead, the wealthy are voting with their feet. The results are exactly what anyone with common sense predicted: a shrinking tax base, […]
Lindsey Graham is gone, and South Carolina Republicans are moving fast. His sister Darline Graham Nordone will serve as interim senator until January, a fitting family tribute and placeholder. But the real prize is the full six-year term up for grabs in November. A special primary hits August 11, and the smart money is already […]
Immediately after the Supreme Court of the United States threw out his executive order outlawing birthright citizenship, President Donald Trump urged Congress to intervene. In a post on Truth Social, he wrote, “The Supreme Court upheld Birthright Citizenship, which is too bad for our Country, but we can easily make it up in Congress through […]

Israel has a different policy: they remember every face, every name, and every atrocity. The body count keeps climbing because justice delayed is still justice. The […]
“We have lost a gentleman from an older era of civility and selflessness.” So wrote Harmeet K. Dhillon, deputy attorney general for Civil Rights on the surprise death of South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham. Graham, a Republican, died Saturday evening at the age of 71 after what his office called a “brief and sudden illness.” His death sent shockwaves […]
The Renewed Death Tax Grab Is Back They taxed your income. They taxed your investments. They taxed your business growth. Now the same crowd wants one last bite after you are gone. The “death tax” talk faded for a while under smarter policies, but the left is circling again with fresh proposals to seize family […]
