Remember when President George W. Bush said America was addicted to oil? Broward is addicted to snowbird taxes. Most snowbirds don’t vote in Florida and they probably use far fewer services than full-time residents, yet they pay the highest taxes on the maximum tax base with no discounts. They certainly get no extra consideration from
(TriceEdneyWire.com) – As we endure one mass shooting crisis to the next, it illustrates the nation’s void in leadership.

Following a mass shooting,
Say this about Alabama’s attitude toward guns: It reveals lawmakers’ priorities. For instance: when faced last year with a choice between gun access and funding law enforcement, Republican legislators chose gun access. This came from a bill that made concealed carry permits optional. There was no mass demand for this. But the National Rifle Association
Greetings, everyone, from the beautiful Hyatt Regency Mission Bay in San Diego. I am writing this missive while looking out over the marina on a cloudy morning.

Tim, you can go back to failing at passing a state budget. Tar Heels, it’s clear to me that the Republican General Assembly supermajority does not care if you live or die. I believe gun violence can only be solved by getting rid of the guns. There are no “good guys with guns” who will

After taking five years, the indictment against Hunter Biden is nothing but theatrics.

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! That infamous “I” word: Impeachment. It’s the word Americans have become far too familiar with in recent history. President Trump was impeached twice. Joe Biden is now facing his own possible impeachment. And here in New Mexico, we are fighting to impeach the tyrant who occupies the
Last week, the Portland Press Herald’s editorial board lambasted thousands of Second Amendment advocates for their hard work protecting the rights of law-abiding citizens (“Our View: We have not nearly earned the right to quibble about gun control,” Sept. 7).

My favorite C.S. Lewis quote goes thusly: “Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but
Anarchists eager to rub country singer Jason Aldean’s small-town lyrics in his face by burning American flags outside a Chicago-area concert this week have helped boost his support in the Second Amendment community.
