Our Ticking Ethnic Time Bomb
The new projections for the U.S. population from the U.S. Census Bureau show dramatic ongoing changes in the ethnic makeup of the nation.

The report projects the percentage of the nation that is white ...Read more
How To Fix Our Broken Culture
Recently published projections for the U.S. population from the U.S. Census Bureau present a picture that should concern every American.
It's a snapshot of a dying society. It's surprising and shocking that it's not getting more attention.

The Importance of Tim Scott's Presidential Run
Sen. Tim Scott left the door open for a future presidential run with his announcement that he is withdrawing from this one.
I hope it's the case. Although Scott's presidential campaign never ignited, his presence and campaign contributed immeasurably to our national politics, and perhaps this first experience of his in the national spotlight ...Read more
Why the Left Hates Israel and America
This week, my organization, Center for Urban Renewal and Education, held an event in Michigan's 12th congressional district, the district of Rep. Rashida Tlaib.

A Time for Truth in America
Over the last week, one conservative Republican rose up, and one conservative Republican stepped down.

Enemy of Palestinians Is Hamas, not Israel
The last time I wrote about Gaza and Hamas was 13 years ago, in 2010.
The point of the column was the striking contrast between how Israelis deal with life's challenges and how Hamas leads its Palestinian constituents in Gaza.
Israel withdrew from Gaza in 2005 and turned it over to the Palestinian Authority. Within two years, with local ...Read more
Kevin McCarthy Is Not the Problem
Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley got to the heart of the government shutdown fireworks in her appearance on Fox News Sunday.
"Let's be clear what the Freedom Caucus is really trying to do; they are trying to cut spending."

Becoming 'A Country I Do Not Recognize'
If there is one overriding theme of the Biden years, it is the systematic degradation of American freedom, pushing the lives and freedom of private citizens aside as government expands and takes over.
This is done under the rubric of the left that "government knows best."
Day by day, we are becoming what the late Supreme Court Justice ...Read more
