Liberal Hypocrisy on Immigration by Jacob G. Hornberger February 26, 2021 Liberals are ecstatic over the Biden administration’s decision to no longer use the term “illegal alien” in governmental communications. They consider it an enormous achievement. The official term to be used now to describe foreigners who are here in the United States without official permission is “undocumented noncitizen.” No doubt reflecting the views of liberals everywhere, Mother ...

What Insurrection? by Jacob G. Hornberger February 24, 2021 Somebody still needs to get a memo to the Justice Department about the so-called insurrection at the Capitol on January 6 because it has yet to charge anyone with that offense. All I is see is a range of criminal offenses like disorderly conduct, assault, trespass, illegal gun possession, and “conspiracy” to commit these types of offenses. ...

Just Leave Cuba Alone by Jacob G. Hornberger February 22, 2021 Unfortunately, Joe Biden is your prime example of a standard Washington, D.C., politician. As such, as president he will just accept the status quo, defer to the national-security establishment, and do his best to make the welfare-warfare state function efficiently. That means that the U.S. policy of interventionism and regime change toward Cuba will continue ...
The Moral Bankruptcy of the Left on Foreign Policy by Jacob G. Hornberger February 19, 2021 Two recent articles in the mainstream press reflect the moral bankruptcy of the left when it comes to U.S. foreign policy. The first article is actually an editorial in the Washington Post. It is entitled “Biden Continues Business as Usual with Trump’s “Favorite Dictator.” The editorial provides an excellent critique of U.S. foreign aid ...
How We Achieve Freedom by Jacob G. Hornberger February 18, 2021 As America plunges deeper into the darkness of welfare-warfare statism, the question naturally arises: How are we libertarians going to achieve freedom? Of course, the preliminary question is: Is it possible to achieve a genuinely free society? Have things gotten so bad that we should just give up and resign ourselves to simply reforming the ...
The Anti-Terrorism Screws Tighten on the American People by Jacob G. Hornberger February 17, 2021 According to a recent article in the Washington Post, in the aftermath of the January 6 melee at the Capitol there are increasing calls for the U.S. government’s Department of Homeland Security to “play a more muscular role in combating domestic extremism.” The article points out that up to this point, DHS has been “responsible ...
The Supreme Court Declared the Minimum Wage Unconstitutional by Jacob G. Hornberger February 16, 2021 I wonder how many Americans realize that the U.S. Supreme Court once declared the minimum wage to be in violation of U.S. Constitution. This occurred in 1923 in a case entitled Adkins v. Children’s Hospital. In a 5-3 decision in that case, the Supreme Court held that a minimum wage law enacted by the District ...
The Omnipotent Power to Assassinate by Jacob G. Hornberger February 12, 2021 It goes without saying that the Constitution called into existence a government with few, limited powers. That was the purpose of enumerating the powers of the federal government. If the Constitution was bringing into existence a government of unlimited or omnipotent powers, then there would have been no point in enumerating a few limited powers. In that ...

Needed: A New System by Jacob G. Hornberger February 10, 2021 Hope springs eternal for statists. When President Trump was coming into office four years ago, conservatives were filled with hope and optimism that Trump would save America from its deep morass of crises and chaos. Alas, it didn’t happen. American society is just as dysfunctional as it was when Trump became president. Now, ...
