USA Daily Chronicles Nobody in either major political party doubts that there is a spree killing and violence problem in the United States today. The question is, what do we do about it? To point at guns as the problem is ludicrous, since they have been around decades before spree killings became common, which started in the 1990s. The problem is not guns, but the misuse and abuse of them. That has only been a common phenomenon in the last few decades. USADC has been carefully studying this issu...

“Doesn’t she know how tax refunds work?”. That’s what I heard repeatedly from folks I visited this past week while traveling my nine-county congressional district. They were referencing a Democratic presidential candidate from California who – like others in her party and many media “experts” – shamelessly peddled the claim that smaller tax refunds means higher taxes. It was quickly debunked. The Washington Post called the claim “misleading and nonsensical.” My constituents here in Texas know: Y...

USA Business Radio The crowded field for the Democratic Party’s nomination for President in 2020 is leading to desperate actions by some of them to mislead voters in order to get votes.

Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) recently stated in a tweet, “The average tax refund is down about $170 compared...

The Times USA Alex Azar of the New York Post recently wrote “President Trump has exposed the dirty secret of drug pricing: There is a shadowy third player in the transaction between patients and their pharmacists: middlemen who have taken a big kickback from the drug manufacturer, which may or may not be reflected in patients’ out-of-pocket costs. “As Americans heard Tuesday in the State of the Union Address, the president is committed to improving fairness and transparency in health care.

Democrats on the House Ways and Means Committee put their“attack President Trump at all costs”agenda on full display last week, holding a hearing focused on forcing the IRS to hand over the President’s tax returns. Let me be clear – this is not about whether or not the President should voluntarily release his tax returns. This is about an abuse of power by Congress.
