President Trump’s Well-Deserved Chastisement by Chief Justice Roberts by Jacob G. Hornberger March 19, 2025 Good for John Roberts, Chief Justice of the United States, for chastising President Trump and lecturing him on the principles of our constitutional judicial system.

Tariff Smartness in Australia by Jacob G. Hornberger March 14, 2025 As the Wall Street Journal has repeatedly emphasized, President Trump’s tariffs are dumb. Very dumb, not only because they damage people in the targeted country but also the American people. Tariffs are a sales tax imposed on American consumers. An increase in taxes is never a good thing for people. Moreover, tariffs impose economic harm on ...
Trump’s Use of Immigration Controls to Destroy Free Speech by Jacob G. Hornberger March 13, 2025 Libertarian supporters of an “Ellis Island” type of immigration-control system are receiving a lesson in the fallacies of their system.

Hornberger March 11, 2025 If you’re like me, you pace the floor every night worrying about the trade deficit between your state and other states.

President Trump, Where Are Those Long-Secret JFK Records? by Jacob G. Hornberger March 10, 2025 It has now been two months since Donald Trump assumed the presidency.

DEA Agent Kiki Camarena Died for Nothing by Jacob G. Hornberger March 7, 2025 In a desperate attempt to placate President Trump in the hope of averting his imposition of a 25 percent tariff on her nation, Mexican President Claudia Scheinbaum recently sent a Mexican citizen named Rafael Caro Quintero to Trump.

Trump’s Tariff-Drug War Nonsense by Jacob G. Hornberger March 6, 2025 Donald Trump’s Commerce Secretary, Howard Lutnick, has announced that Trump’s tariffs against Mexico and Canada should not be considered a trade war but rather part of America’s “war on drugs.” As soon as Mexico and Canada stop the flow of fentanyl into the United States, he says, the tariffs will be lifted. Politicians and bureaucrats are well-known for ...
How Does Trump Resume Shipments of Arms to the Regime that Started the War? by Jacob G. Hornberger March 5, 2025 Imagine if war had broken out between the United States and Soviet Russia during the Cuban Missile Crisis.
