  • Carol Platt Liebau: A National Treasure
    May 22 2026

    Justice Clarence Thomas recently became the second longest-serving justice in US history — and that’s something to celebrate. He is exceptional, both as a jurist and as a man.

    Raised in poverty in a wooden shack in the segregated South, he credits his grandfather for shaping his character. From that foundation, he has articulated a powerful and increasingly influential originalist vision of the Constitution, grounded in the natural law principles of our Declaration of Independence.

    His character is remarkable. Justice Thomas is beloved by those who know him. He’s renowned for his kindness: treating his clerks like family, knowing the names of court staff, and helping others with no expectation of return.

    Justice Thomas is quite simply a national treasure. He’s a blessing to America. And it’s right that we celebrate this outstanding jurist and extraordinary man.

  • Seth Leibsohn: A Proper Perspective on Our Public Prayers
    May 20 2026

    Numerous media outlets had a difficult time with the Rededicate 250 celebration the White House sponsored this past Sunday. One major paper reported “Until Trump’s second term in office, it had been virtually unheard of in modern times for U.S. government officials to publicly tie the nation to a specific set of religious beliefs. Trump’s cabinet members have changed that norm.” Boy that phrase “in modern times” is doing a lot of work here.

    Calls to prayer and thanksgiving may be new to the old media staffed by too many young, but they’d raise no eyebrows from those who actually founded the country, like John Adams. who wrote, “The general principles on which the fathers achieved independence were the general principles of Christianity.” We can go on and on with such language from John Adams to John Kennedy, never mind FDR’s D-Day prayer—the largest public prayer in history up to that point.

    Just now, this country could use exactly what the White House sponsored, and a lot less of what the Mainstream Media is offering.

  • Hugh Hewitt: Persevere
    Mar 4 2026

    As we watch the ongoing campaign against the Islamic Republic of Iran, President Trump now faces a decision on when to end the battle.

    A premature end will almost certainly lead to another war.

    This regime refused to stop its nuclear program, its missile program its exported terrorism after President Trump ordered Qassem Soleimani killed in January 2020, and again after Operation Midnight Hammer in June of last year, when he obliterated the nuclear weapons program of the Islamic Republic.

    Instead, the fanatics atop this barbarous regime began to rebuild their killing capabilities and displayed their true nature with the stunning massacre of more than 35,000 of their own citizens in January. The Islamic Republic regime is incapable of changing. The regime must be changed.

    Persevere President Trump. Americans have been dying at the hands of this wicked regime since it came to power in 1979. More have died this week. Do not let this regime survive to kill again.
