Progressive elves at the Department of Energy are working in lockstep with fringe environmentalists… ‘Twas the week before Christmas and all cross the states, the progressives were chanting a new set of regulations and rates – talking points to diminish your good Christmas cheer, by shaming your holiday lighting in the hopes you won’t shine […]
It is because no one actually gives a damn. Otherwise, we’d talk and fix it. I started this column with the best of intentions. This began with a long jeremiad explaining how Prince Edward County screwed it up for the rest of us during the Massive Resistance era, defunding their public schools and offering local […]
The real question for Virginians is whether Biden’s abysmally low numbers will put the perennial three seats in play: VA-02 in Virginia Beach, VA-10 in Loudoun, and VA-07 in Prince William and Fredericksburg. The poll I discussed yesterday serves as a reminder to giddy Democrats still breathing sighs of relief as redistricting saved their bacon […]

A week ago The Jefferson Council publicly questioned the decision to withhold publication of the investigation into the University’s failure to prevent the Nov. 13, 2022, mass shooting. We were particularly perplexed by who made the decision to delay release of the report until after the trial of the defendant, Christopher Jones. The decision, announced […]
A recent poll from Marquette University Law School confirms what others have already shown: President Joe Biden’s re-election effort is sputtering. And not just against the current GOP frontrunner, former President Donald Trump. The top line numbers for a Biden-Trump rematch show Trump ahead 52 percent to 48 percent. That’s within the poll’s 4.5 percentage […]
