My New Year's resolution: Make a careful distinction between speech and violence.
America's First Amendment says "yes" to most speech, including speech that criticizes, insults -- even speech that promotes hate. But the law applies only to government.
In one of the most remarkable Abbott and Costello routines in modern times, the economic wizards at the Fed again raised interest rates on Tuesday. Their crackerjack logic for doing so is to steer America on a course toward recession so they have the tools in hand to end the recession that they themselves created. Can anyone tell us who's on first?
"Deck the halls with boughs of holly," goes the old Christmas carol. "'Tis the season to be jolly." Yet if there were a couplet less befitting the mood of this capital city, I am unaware of it.
Today is Christmas, and most still consider it an important and holy day.
Forty percent (40%) of Likely U.S. Voters think the country is heading in the right direction, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey for the week ending December 20.

A panel investigating the massacre at a Parkland, Florida high school earlier this year has recommended that certain trained, vetted teachers be allowed to carry firearms in school, a proposal supported by the Trump administration’s Federal Commission on School Safety. Parents of school-age children continue to think that's a good idea.
Liberals are supposed to feel other people's pain. Now, they seem more intent on inflicting it.
Four days before Christmas, Congress entered a partial government shutdown over the showdown for border wall funding, while procrastinators scrambled to do last minute holiday shopping.

Though some consider the tradition of sending Christmas cards a relic of the past, nearly half still plan on mailing them out this year.
In 1957, 4.3 million babies were born in the United States. In 2017, 60 years later, the number was 3,853,472. That's an 11 percent decline, in a nation whose population has nearly doubled over those six decades. And though there are a few days left in 2018, the number for this year is sure to be lower.
A federal judge last week declared as unconstitutional Obamacare’s requirement that every American have health insurance. Most voters continue to oppose the so-called individual mandate as they have for years.
Nancy Pelosi is poised to become the most powerful Democrat in Washington, D.C., but voters prefer that President Trump lead the way.
In my book, The Great Alignment: Race, Party Transformation and the Rise of Donald Trump, I argue that the United States has entered a new era of electoral competition in the 21st century. The most important characteristics of 21st century elections are partisan polarization and nationalized elections, and the results of the 2018 House elections provide striking evidence of both. The outcomes of House contests in 2018 were overwhelmingly determined by two factors — the partisan composition of House districts and the unpopularity of President Trump in many of those districts, including some that had supported him in 2016.
Americans don’t plan to be a Scrooge this Christmas and are instead planning to donate to charity in the name of holiday spirit.
