Denver is a sanctuary city. Last month Mayor Mike Johnson announced he was cutting $45M from city agency budgets to pay for the influx of over 40,000 illegal aliens into the city. Of the budget cuts, $8.4M is being taken from the Denver Police Department. Texas Governor Greg Abbott has been targeting Denver by sending […]
One economist recently warned of the connection between increased government spending and increased personal debt among American citizens. With a new, bloated federal budget coming from Congress, this is indeed a sobering warning. Heritage Foundation research fellow and public finance economist EJ Antoni highlighted how damaging government spending of […]
In 1991, the Soviet Union collapsed. It marked the end of an experiment that lasted almost a century, testing the premise that godless secularization—turning control of people’s lives over to other people to rule them, who decide what others need and how they should live and conduct their lives—is the answer for mankind. In the […]
For nearly a decade, the House Freedom Caucus has disrupted the way business is done in Congress. Now, that same model is spreading to state capitals across America. State Freedom Caucus Network President Andy Roth is no stranger to Washington’s policy fights after spending years with the Club for Growth. A few years ago, he […]
The state that wants to set aside tens of billions of dollars for slavery reparations can’t get its default budget under control.

President Joe Biden has transformed America’s southern border into a humanitarian catastrophe and a national security nightmare.

Considering that the gross national debt is now more than $100,000 for […]
The U.S. Department of Agriculture intends to cultivate the transgender ideology on a global scale using international farm-aid programs.
