My grandfather was always a frugal man. He went to college on the G.I. Bill, he never owned a large house and he never drove a luxury car. By living under his means and investing wisely, he was able to build impressive wealth. As the years went on, he decided to move closer to his...
A compelling collection of stories by Jason Buch tells a gripping tale about embezzled money stolen from Mexican taxpayers making its way through a Texas bank and ultimately into extravagant assets such as real estate, cars, and various luxury items. Buch’s investigative reporting begins by delving into the life of Luis Carlos Castillo Cervantes, also...
Are the actions in Cuba routine or might China be planning a national security threat to the US? In the past few days, the Biden administration admitted that the People’s Republic of China had reactivated the Soviet Union’s old Cold War intelligence post at Lourdes, in Cuba. This revelation was soon followed by an even bigger concern:...
The Biden administration plans to release new gainful employment regulations. The regulations would terminate federal financial aid for some programs where graduates do not earn more than high school graduates or where the students take on excessive debt, as determined by two debt-to-income tests. My previous list of pros and cons still holds, but having had more...
Constitutional impeachment prevents what the revolution sought to stop — the reign of a ruler with unchecked power. Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, recently “teased” the nation — and the media — with details of a bribery scheme involving Joe Biden, his son Hunter, and a foreign national. This occurred after an IRS whistleblower testified he was removed...
If lefty globalists were to spawn the perfect politician in a vat, Gavin Newsom would emerge from the goo. Make no mistake, the mounting evidence of bribery surrounding President Joe Biden and his family can only be buried one way: an admission of his major cognitive decline, necessitating his dropping out of the 2024 race....
Every parent deserves transparency, quality, respect, and choice in their child’s education. That’s our mission at TPPF’s Next Generation Campaign and we’re excited to report big wins this week! Transparency & Quality: As national scores continue to show us, there is a huge gap between the TEKS (what we expect Texas children to learn) and...
Hope you don’t have any exciting weekend plans. By the time you read this, humanity has already been wiped out. Hasn’t it? On June 21, 2018, Greta Thunberg tweeted that “climate change will wipe out all of humanity unless we stop using fossil fuels over the next five years.” Five years have come and almost...
Apparently, President Joe Biden’s reelection plan to “finish the job” includes the normalization of the mass importation of child sex and labor slaves across the border. It’s not surprising that his administration can do so—nobody’s standing in its way. Rapid DNA testing at the border has been a critical vetting tool preventing strangers and human...
KEY POINTS The summer situation for the Texas grid is actually better than advertised, but winters are becoming a bigger and bigger problem with no clear solution on the horizon. Legislators took some baby steps with HB 1500 to eliminate the last vestiges of state subsidies for unreliable electricity and move toward real market reform....
Gov. Ron DeSantis brags that Florida “is where woke goes to die,” but in the legislative session that just ended, Texas lawmakers passed the strongest legislation in the country to end DEI (diversity, equity and inclusion) and its ideological framework mandating a belief in systemic racism, non-binary genders and pronoun police, men playing women’s sports,...
Debate over “the future of American education” has reached a fever-pitch of late. But too often these debates resolve nothing, because none of the competing sides can agree even on what “education” means—or should mean. Without initial agreement on this most fundamental question, it’s less than surprising that the resulting disputes generate far more acrimony...
