Josh Hawley and Rick Scott “The New Republicans”

Remembering D-Day 75 Years On
The men who crowded into small landing craft to assault the beaches of Normandy on this day 75 years ago didn’t deserve the hell they encountered as they disembarked and made their way toward the cliffs. Despite the munitions racing toward them from Nazi machine gunners manning Hitler’s Atlantic Wall, they endured, and won […]
Barring Former Lobbyists Violates the 1st Amendment

Warren’s Wealth Tax Won’t Work
The Democratic Primary has already generated some outrageous proposals, and one of the worst is Sen. Elizabeth Warren’s wealth tax. The problem with wealth taxes is that they never work. The Europeans have tried them many times, and in most cases have already reversed course. My friend Chris Edwards explains the failure of Europe’s wealth […]
Senator Josh Hawley on the Money on Google
