May 17, 2019 Howard Sachs Politics, government, socialism

I’m a devoted husband, father, doctor, proud American, and a serious Jew. I’m 63 years old. I have kids who recently graduated from college.

Trump’s Sanctions Aren’t Helping Venezuela

April 12, 2019 Christopher Tellez Politics, Donald Trump, Venezuela

The Donald J. Trump administration has been imposing sanctions on Venezuela since 2017. The main argument in favor of this is that the first few sanctions were primarily imposed on Venezuelan government officials such as Nicolás Maduro. But one thing you aren’t told is that the Maduro regime had… Read the rest at our website.

Politics Do Not Have To Invade Media

March 29, 2019 Corbin Bolies Politics, Movies, entertainent

With us living in a political time (or hellscape, depending on your interpretation), it is bound to have an effect on the content we consume.

The Trump Administration Is A Kleptocracy

March 15, 2019 Christopher Tellez Politics, Trump, government

On Dec. 22, 2017, Donald J. Trump’s administration passed its most ambitious piece of legislation to date. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act replaced the 31-year-old tax code passed under the Reagan administration in 1986.

February 22, 2019 Angel Diaz Politics, Elections

The American political system was created in 1789 after the establishment of the United States Constitution.

America’s Foreign Policy Is Irresponsible

January 24, 2019 Robin Aitken government, foreign policy, Politics, Trump

Under its current administration, America seems to have a confusing foreign policy. Donald J. Trump, our 45th U.S. President, has made understanding his goals quite a task for congressmen and citizens alike. During my research, I attempted to locate firm foreign policy goals, directly from the White House. My… Read the rest at our website.

America’s Domestic Terrorism Has Political Roots

November 30, 2018 Genesis Sotomayor Politics, domestic terrorism

It would make sense to claim that, in the United States’ increasingly polarized society, political polarization is the root cause for the obvious increase in domestic terrorism.

Kanye West’s Meeting With Trump Was Revealing

November 16, 2018 Robin Aitken Politics, Donald Trump, Kanye West

Many were shocked to see Kanye West and President Donald J. Trump together in the Oval Office discussing policy. For me, this meeting was an eye opener, because it stood apart from the usual presidential meetings. West, a rapper and fashion designer, would not quit ranting. But what did… Read the rest at our website.
