Social Security and Medicare are like a ticking time bomb!. Yet most politicians promise not to touch these “entitlements.”. Those politicians are either lying or ignorant. Unless we raise retirement age, cut benefits, or privatize, the explosion is coming.

Friday is the Fourth of July. What will you celebrate?. Freedom from the English monarchy?. To me, the Fourth is about freedom, period.

.@RandPaul tells me: Thanks to government flood insurance, one home in Virginia has been rebuilt 41 times. Ridiculous! . There’s no limit on how many times your government will squander your money:

Friday is July 4th, when we celebrate our independence and the Constitution. Should we change the Constitution?. We asked people like @glennbeck @michaelmalice @RubinReport.and @naomibrockwell. But some of the most interesting answers came from strangers on the street.

The left has another HORRIBLE goal: end capitalism because it pursues growth. They claim: "A smaller, slower economy could also be a SWEETER economy.”. WHAT?. There’s nothing sweet about poverty:

Activists say, "Climate change is worsening droughts!”. But: Globally, drought has not increased since 1900. And in the U.S., the EPA says the last 50 years were wetter than average. The activists and the media (is there a difference?) get so much wrong about climate change:

20 years ago, a Connecticut city gov't seized a little pink house and gave it to a developer. SCOTUS said it was ok because it MAY increase tax revenue. Is the site a bustling tax-producing business now? No!. Nothing was developed! Here’s what they destroyed for an empty lot:

The Human Rights Campaign! Sounds great. I support human rights. But @robbystarbuck says the HRC “has nothing to do with actual human rights.” They push "transgenderism into the workplace and support sex changes for kids.”. And big companies subscribe:

The gay rights movement won! Gay marriage is legal, cities compete to hold gay pride parades. Nowhere in the world is life better for homosexuals than in America. But human rights activists declared a “national state of emergency.” There’s always a crisis. Even when there isn't:

"This DEI movement is the enemy of what the civil rights movement fought for," says @robbystarbuck. It pushed for a world where no one is judged by their skin color. But DEI, he says, wants "you to BEGIN by judging each other by your skin color!". More in our full interview:

5 years ago… I reported on Philadelphia’s new tax on soda. The politicians promised to spend the money on early childhood education. 5 years later… here’s what happened:

Next week we celebrate Independence Day. It is a good time to remember just how exceptional the U.S. is. Free Speech is one important reason why:.

How does free speech in America compare with the rest of the world? It turns out we’re pretty different from even other liberal democracies. Our new video has the details.

Would you eat lab grown chicken?. I tried it. It tastes like chicken. Of course, some politicians and cattle ranchers want to ban it:

.@RBReich says he wants billionaires to go extinct!. That’s economic idiocy. Billionaires get rich by CREATING wealth. They get paid a lot, but still only earn 2% of the value of their companies, economist @danieljmitchell notes. We should want MORE billionaires:

Many act as if slavery was a uniquely American crime. “One reason,” says author Wilfred Reilly (@wil_da_beast630), “is that a lot of black people survived here.”. He argues that much of what Americans are taught about slavery is just wrong:

My friend @JmAtk305 sent me this analysis: Despite appearing to be polar opposites, Trump and Mamdani ran similar campaigns and won with basic bribery; free stuff for everyone. Mamdani promises city groceries, free childcare, free busing, etc. Trump does not get labeled a.

A a socialist is likely to be New York City's next mayor!. He makes economically ignorant promises like free busing and city run grocery stores. Voters should listen to @GloriaAlvarez85. She experienced socialism first hand:
