What really happens If the U.S. can’t pay its bills?

When you run a business, you’re constantly trying to look ahead. You make decisions now on hiring, spending and investing that will position your company to either grow or just weather the storm. You know you can’t control the future. But you can take some measures to protect your interests and lower your risks.

Whoever wins Wisconsin, wins the presidency

If former President Donald Trump wins in Wisconsin, he will win the presidency. The latest Marquette University Law School poll shows Mr. Trump ahead with 43% of the vote, while President Biden had 40%. Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., had 8% of the vote, and three other third-party candidates carried the remaining votes. Only 1% of those surveyed said that they did not know who to vote for at this time.

Rep. Jamaal Bowman, D-N.Y., listens to fellow speakers before President Joe Biden speaks during an event at SUNY Westchester Community College, May 10, 2023, in Valhalla, N.Y. Rep. Bowman will face a primary challenge from a veteran, pro-Israel Democrat who has announced his candidacy for the New York district. Westchester County Executive George Latimer, who for months has mulled a run amid encouragement from Jewish community leaders, entered the race with an ad on Wednesday, Dec. 6, 2023 that in part criticized Bowman's stance on the Israel-Hamas war.

Jewish voters and lessons learned after Bowman’s defeat

As a Republican constituent living in New York’s 16th Congressional District, I welcomed the results from Tuesday’s Democratic primary, which confirmed that Westchester County Executive George Latimer defeated anti-Israel Squad Democrat Rep. Jamaal Bowman. Mr. Latimer is strongly favored to carry the Democratic stronghold in the Nov. 5 general election.

Gen Z is fed up with Bidenomics

November 5, 2024, will be the first time I vote for the President of the United States. The privilege and weight of the decision are not lost on me as a member of Gen Z—the youngest voting block and the generation that will bear the effects of the election’s outcome more than any other voting group this election cycle.

The case for Pompeo

If Democrats had any sense, they’d figure out how to replace President Biden with Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear or someone younger and virtually unknown that they can manufacture into their next savior. Do that, and Vice President Kamala Harris could be replaced by a toaster.
