How Should Republicans Move Forward?

- By Star Parker
Reading commentary about the recent elections, I thought of an observation of Nobel prize-winning physicist Richard Feynman.
Feynman said, "The first principle is that you must not fool yourself, and you are the easiest person to fool."
That is, we must always be disciplined in looking at things as they are and not bend to the temptation to see them as we wish them to be.
After the recent Democratic election sweep, we are hearing that there is unhappiness out there.
Democratic Socialist Party Debuts in New York City

Big news from Argentina is the electoral victory of the Advancing Liberty party of President Javier Milei.
Milei initially won the presidency in 2023 brandishing a chainsaw as a message of how he was going to cut the runaway government that has been destroying the lives of Argentinians.
Big government power has been a tradition in Argentina. Now Milei is turning things around.
Economic growth is picking up from stagnation, and inflation is down from over 200% to a little over 30%.
Democrats Prioritize Welfare Over National Security

Few speak the truth as clearly and succinctly as House Speaker Mike Johnson.
Appearing on ABC's "This Week" last Sunday, co-host Jonathan Karl challenged the speaker's calling the recent No King rallies "Hate America Rallies," calling them "the modern Democratic Party."
Johnson responded that "there is a rise of Marxism in the Democratic Party ... just look what is happening in New York."
"They are about to elect an open socialist Marxist as mayor of America's largest city."
Increasing Opportunity and Hope for Our Children

An age-old conundrum regarding raising children is the issue of nature versus nurture.
That is, do genes determine a child's success in life, or is it the environment in which that child is raised?
Or, even more fundamentally, is intelligence genetic, or can education increase IQ?
James J. Heckman, a Nobel Prize-winning economist from the University of Chicago, poses his own variant of this question.
Bed, Bath and Beyond California

- By Star Parker
The much-publicized exchange between Bed Bath & Beyond chairman Marcus Lemonis and California Gov. Gavin Newsom is a lesson for the whole country.
We shoppers look back fondly on the marketing acumen that, starting with one store in 1971, built Bed Bath & Beyond into a retail giant that once had 365 stores nationwide.
The shopping experience there was always great fun -- the basics of homemaking at great prices plus innovative trinkets that were always attention-getters at prices attractive enough to get you to buy what you weren't even thinking about when you walked into the store.
An Allegedly Civilized World Genuflects to Hamas

As the governments of the U.K., Canada and France announce their intent to recognize a Palestinian state, I recall the words of C.S. Lewis, so aptly quoted by President Ronald Reagan in his famous "evil empire" speech:
"The greatest evil is not done now ... in those sordid 'dens of crime' that Dickens loved to paint. It is ... not even done in concentration camps and labor camps. In those we see its final result. But it is conceived and ordered, moved, seconded, carried and minuted in clear, carpeted, warmed and well-lighted offices, by quiet men with white collars and cut fingernails and smooth-shaven cheeks who do not need to raise their voice."
Gavin Newsom's Misguided Redistricting Initiative
- Details
- By Star Parker
California Gov. Gavin Newsom is upset with Texas.
There's a reason he should be upset. California companies are pulling up in droves and moving to the Lone Star State and elsewhere.
But that isn't what's bothering him. Newsom cares about politics and power, not markets and business.
He's upset that the Texas state legislature is moving to redistricting that could add up to five Republican seats in 2026. So, Newsom wants to redistrict, which could add another five Democrat seats in California.
