The House of Representatives immigration group seems to have an immigration bill. At least in concept. We have yet to see text.
Senator Ted Cruz (R-Tex.) has only been in the Senate a short time, but he knows what it takes to do the most important thing a Senator [...]
Our Latin America Nuclear Problem
Does the title of this blog post seem a little odd sounding, “Latin American” Nuclear Powers? A close friend was somewhat shocked when I told him earlier this week that Brazil and Argentina are the two more advanced nuclear powers in the Western Hemisphere. Mexico operates several reactors [...]
U.S. federal government largesse. Books have been written about it. Entire political careers built around it. Yet we never seem to do much about stemming waste, fraud, abuse of federal tax dollars. Why? Because there is so much of it and folks just do not know where to start.
The Pigford farmer cases is [...]
We have nowhere to go … at least not within most of Northern Virginia. Taxes keep going up. Federal, state, and local. This past week the Fairfax County government agreed to increase property taxes. What about the Republicans?
Just one of three Republicans on the Fairfax County county board opposed the increase, [...]
Some conservatives in this town take issue with the POLITICO’s editorial leanings. At times, present company included. However, it is a good publication. The folks who started it are among the best reporters in this town and they understand how public policy and news works. Take immigration.
A few days ago POLITICO published an piece [...]
The following Guest Dispatch comes to us from Arthur Freyre, Esq. in Miami, Florida. Arthur raises several great points on recent events worth pondering. Not sure why though he dings the great Mark Levin. If you live in Washington, DC as long as I have, folks would be clamoring for more radio hosts like Levin. [...]

Frankly, how much more reason do we need than the Boston terror attacks to focus on incremental reform of our immigration system? As Frank Gaffney penned last week,
Travel to Cuba is a sensitive political topic in the Cuban Diaspora and in policy circles in this town. As it should be. The Obama Administration has failed miserably to effectively deal with the Cuba question. This has happened, in part, because it has no policy vision for the Western Hemisphere. The Administration’s reaction to pop [...]
UPDATE: Drudge Report reporting that several Members of Congress have penned a note to the USG.
For those of us that follow events in a a little island 90 miles from our shores, the news of the week was the Cuba trip of Beyoncé Knowles and Jay-Z. Judging solely from the news [...]
The murder of a District Attorney and his wife in Texas barely registered with the mainstream news. The likely assassination (folks still calling it murder) of a law man should have the ABA tied in knots, screaming for justice. They are saying nothing right now. But this will change. The death of Texas District Attorney [...]
Hyeonseo Lee’s escape from Communist North Korea is well worth a view.
Countless numbers of Cubans fleeing Cuban Communism/Socialism have similar stories to tell.
It is an inspiring story of courage and determination. And new chapters are added, daily.
Dennis Rodman, stick with basketball.
I always enjoy reading Thomas Sowell’s writings. He is clear thinker and author. This is especially true on economic and political issues, as well as on matters pertaining to the race in America. Sowell recenlty granted the folks at Newsmax an exclusive interview in which he talks about RNC outreach efforts:
Sowell tells [...]
