The Nation Needs a Great Reawakening
- Details
- By Star Parker
Over the years 1934-1961, British historian Arnold Toynbee published his 12-volume "A Study of History."
Toynbee studied the rise and fall of 23 civilizations. His conclusion was that great civilizations die not from external causes but from internal causes.
They commit suicide.
Toynbee concluded, In the words of one journalist, that "civilizations start to decay when they lose their moral fiber."
We don't have to be great historians to know that civilizations have come and gone. Forever is not a given fact of life.
Unions and Republicans
- Details
- By Star Parker
The appearance of Sean O' Brien, president of the Teamsters Union, in a key speaking slot at the Republican National Convention, raised a lot of eyebrows across the political spectrum about what is going on both with unions and with the Republican Party.
The union agenda and the traditional Republican agenda -- free markets, free trade, free labor market competition -- is not a cocktail that we usually think of as going together.
But we are in a political time of razor-thin margins. Swing states will be won by margins hovering around 1%. Winning swing votes depends on the ability to penetrate the gray, to win over voters who may not be 100% on board with the candidate or the party's whole platform -- but who see the benefits of one side as exceeding the costs of the other side.
Will the Chevron Decision Fix Big Government?
- Details
- By Star Parker
The Supreme Court recently ruled to overturn the Chevron doctrine precedent that has stood since 1984.
Recent precedent reversals, such as the overturning of Roe v. Wade, have gotten much more attention. But this change is of enormous importance, and everyone should know what it's about.
In the 1984 Chevron ruling, an environmental group, the Natural Resources Defense Council, sued to overturn a decision by the Reagan-era Environmental Protection Agency to ease regulation of emissions. The court ruled to uphold the EPA decision, reasoning that, unless the point of dispute had been addressed by Congress, the federal agency's interpretation of a statute should stand.
Bibi Netanyahu: Profile in Courage
- Details
- By Star Parker
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed this past week, at the invitation of House Speaker Mike Johnson, a joint session of Congress.
The prime minister's job that night was to make clear to the Congress, to the nation and to the world the "what" and "why" of Israel's operation in Gaza, following the murderous attack by Hamas terrorists on Oct. 7, 2023, and why Americans should identify with and support Israel's struggle.
My heart went out to this brave and besieged leader as he made his case.
George Washington Foresaw Today's Irresponsible, Immoral Leadership in Washington
- Details
- By Star Parker
In President Joe Biden's announcement on social media of his decision to not run for reelection, he ticked off the many wonderful achievements during his three and a half years in the nation's highest office.
But if things are so great, as Biden seems to think, why are Americans so dispirited?
Biden's personal polling is horrible. General polling shows an American public in a sour state of mind.
Per Gallup of a few weeks ago, only 41% say they are "extremely proud" to be an American, compared to 70% 20 years ago.
What We Must Learn From Trump Shooting
- Details
- By Star Parker
We now have, as we would expect, a tsunami of commentary regarding the horrible assassination attempt on Donald Trump. It is not trivial to observe that at least the good news is that just about everyone agrees what happened is very bad and not an encouraging sign about the state of our nation.
After that point of agreement, we have many different and diverging opinions about who or what is to blame. Republicans, Democrats, Donald Trump, Joe Biden, etc., etc.
This act of violence against Donald Trump is, unfortunately, not a one-off in our nation today.
From Biden, Democrats: Believe Us, Not Your Own Eyes
- Details
- By Star Parker
It appears that leadership of the Democratic Party is taking its inspiration from the famous line from the Marx Brothers film "Duck Soup," -- "Who are you going to believe, me or your own eyes."
There is just so long you can hide under a rock. President Joe Biden had no choice but crawl out and stand before the nation and debate, for all to see that the alleged leader of the free world barely can discern what day it is.
Yet Democratic Party leaders want us to believe them, not our own eyes, that Biden is perfectly capable of handling the responsibilities of the presidency.
