President and Congress Need an Intervention

From the Right / Cal Thomas /

When some people appear beyond help because of addiction or other circumstances they can’t control, family members have been known to stage an intervention. Congress and President Biden need an intervention as their addiction to spending exceeds anything seen in history.

In his State of the Union address last week, the president invoked one ...Read more

Cal Thomas: The state of the disunion

From the Right / Cal Thomas /

If advance reports are correct, President Biden’s State of the Union address will sound more like a political stump speech than an honest assessment of where the country stands. The man who promised to be a uniter, will likely deliver one of the most ...Read more

Politicians Excel at Lying

From the Right / Cal Thomas /

Politicians aren’t good at much, but they do excel at one thing – lying. They lie about the border. Both parties refuse to acknowledge the danger of a growing and unsustainable debt ( CNBC reports it’s increasing by $1 ...Read more

Dock Their Pay

From the Right / Cal Thomas /

When the government shuts down the people responsible continue to receive their pay because they are considered “essential.” These include the president and members of Congress. It reminds me of when it snows in Washington (as opposed to the snow jobs we get all year from politicians). The guy on the radio says, “only essential workers ...Read more

Willis vs. Wade vs. Euphemisms

From the Right / Cal Thomas /

During questioning of Fulton County, Georgia prosecutor Nathan Wade about his “relationship” with District Attorney Fani Willis there was a moment that cut through all the euphemisms we have become accustomed to when it comes to human behavior.

Gospel on PBS lifts Spirits

From the Right / Cal Thomas /

If you are tired of TV shows like “The Bachelor” where women demean themselves by competing for the “love” of a man; if you are sick of all the shootings and explosions on TV, the canned laughter on sitcoms that mostly aren’t funny (which is why they have to insert canned laughter in the first place); if you want to have your spirit ...Read more

The Unmaking of a President

From the Right / Cal Thomas /

Beginning with the election of John F. Kennedy in 1960 and through the re-election of Richard Nixon in 1972, political journalist and biographer Theodore H. White wrote books called “The Making of a President.” Were he alive today he might title one about Joe Biden “The ...Read more

Limiting Lawbreakers is Still Lawbreaking

From the Right / Cal Thomas /

Let Us Pray

From the Right / Cal Thomas /

The number of President Biden’s gaffes and flip-flops on issues would fill a book, but he combined several categories of verbal meanderings at last week’s National Prayer Breakfast.

Cal Thomas: The Canadian version of ‘Newspeak’

From the Right / Cal Thomas /

In his novel “1984,” George Orwell created a term “Newspeak,” a language that was imposed by Big Brother for the purpose of diminishing the range of thought.

That perfectly describes what recently happened in Canada to the popular – and to some controversial psychologist – politics/fromtheright/calthomas/s-3092884">Read more

Cal Thomas: Biden's bad deal

From the Right / Cal Thomas /

Democrats and Abortion: Bring It On

From the Right / Cal Thomas /

With the economy, the border and foreign policy not working for them in this election cycle, Democrats are counting on the abortion issue to save their hides in November.

Biden’s Continued Cynical Use of Race

From the Right / Cal Thomas /

President Joe Biden is “down” with Black voters and I’m not speaking street slang.

A new USA Today/Suffolk University Poll reveals one in five Black voters say they will support a third-party candidate instead of the president. That’s down substantially from the 92% of non-Hispanic Blacks who voted for Biden in 2020, according to the ...Read more
