House Defunds Arms Trade Treaty The House of Representatives passed next year’s defense appropriations bill – the National Defense Authorization Act FY 2014 – with 315 yays and 108 nays; at the same time they also agreed to defund the United Nations Arms Trade Treaty.

Fake Fight Imagine yourself on a Saturday afternoon. You worked hard all week. This morning you got caught up on your household chores and your errands, and you sit down before the fireplace with a good book. Suddenly, you notice two men fighting in your front yard. They are pushing and shoving and punching each other as they stumble up your driveway. Shouting and cursing each other, they crash through your front door and continue the mayhem right into your living room. Read More |
We Should Reform Child Support President Obama’s Father’s Day speech included one provocative yet very declarative sentence: “We should reform our child support laws to get more men working and engaged with their children.” Obama didn’t elaborate, but we can build on what he said because, yes indeed, child support laws urgently need “reform.” Read More |
Sen. Paul: ‘Anybody want to fire some I.R.S. agents?’ It turns out that the government employee of the I.R.S. — who will not testify, who will not help out with the hearings — it turns out she’s been doing this for decades. She was at the FEC telling Republican candidates that ‘you need to quit and we’ll leave you alone.

Marco Rubio’s Iowa problem Other than college football and superheroes, I’m not an expert on a whole lot of stuff. But one thing I know a thing or two about is the Iowa caucuses. For example, Fox News noted the role I played in Mike Huckabee’s surprise 2008 victory there. The Atlantic noted that I correctly predicted the top 5 finishers in the 2011 Iowa Straw Poll in order. And I wrote for the Washington Times that Tim Pawlenty was in deep trouble in Iowa long before the national media was surprised he was out of the race before it ever really started. Read More |
