Ron Hart: The Fourth Estate should have an estate sale


We have legacy corporate media that have stood by and asked no questions when the Democrats say Trump, MAGA and Republicans are a “threat to democracy.” All the while, Democrats seek to keep Trump off the ballot in several states, jail him, take his assets in New York, expand the Supreme Court, ban voter ID, censor speech and suppress opposing […]

Ron Hart: Democrat dogma: Blame business for passing on inflation costs


When you create inflation like Joe Biden has, that cost is always passed on to the consumer. Materials, regulatory and oil costs are up, along with interest rates. The expense to do business naturally goes up; and for Biden to childishly chide business owners for raising prices, calling them “greedy and gouging” (even yelling that his Snickers bars have shrunk), […]

Ron Hart: Weaponizing government against Trump is backfiring


All the contrived “lawfare” cases against Trump are falling apart. The cases were assigned to inept and corrupt blue-city prosecutors. And, on cue, the prosecutors are botching their jobs in a clumsy sequence of events that are more telling about the veracity of the pursuers than about their targets. They are failing because of the emergent truths found in the […]

Ron Hart: A lot is happening in the news


With all the news swirling, here are roundups and catchups of what we have missed: The Alabama Supreme Court, which looks like a Baptist preacher convention subcommittee appointed to police dirty dancing betwixt the young ‘uns, voted that unused in-vitro fertilized eggs were to be treated as human. Things have changed in Alabama. Once there was the KKK, a group […]

Ron Hart: Not saying Fani’s a vote-rigger, but she’s not messing with broke figures


We know that voters no longer determine elections; the FBI, DOJ, CIA and various district sttorneys do. Sadly, because of the likes of former FBI Director Comey, Peter Strzok, Letitia James, NY County District Attorney Alvin Bragg, Fani Willis and the various Deep State spy-ops in place, we cannot trust the system. Yet here we are. The most recent lawfare […]

Ron Hart: With Biden incapacitated, who’s running the country?


Easter is coming. With a president of the United States who could hide his own Easter eggs and throw himself a surprise party, we deserve to know one simple thing: Who’s calling the shots in the White House? It is clearly under leftist Democrat rule. Joe Biden butchered another press “chat” to respond to the DOJ deciding not to prosecute […]

Opinion: School voucher decision requires more discussion


Political discussions lack critical thinking in the current climate, negatively impacting discourse. Lawmakers rush political decisions without much discussion, undermining transparency, accountability and thorough consideration of the issues. This often leads to poorly crafted legislation with unintended consequences. Limited public input and rushed discussions can lead to policies that do not reflect the population’s needs, giving political donors and lobbyists […]

Rose: It’s time to remove Mayorkas from DHS office


After nearly a year-long and thorough investigation by the House Committee on Homeland Security, House Republicans have impeached Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas for his willful and systemic refusal to comply with the law and breach of the public trust. As many of my fellow Tennesseans know, I have fully supported the House’s efforts to examine whether Secretary […]

Ron Hart: Dems want everything electric – except the border fence


Joe Biden spent his first three years in office telling everyone that “our southern border is secure.” He would squint into the cameras, looking like that banjo player from “Deliverance,” and say that. Yet we all knew he was not serious about it because he put Kamala Harris in charge. The only less genuine effort to defend the border would […]

Qualified teachers needed to avoid classroom crisis


The truth is that teaching is a challenging profession that requires a unique set of skills and abilities, and not everyone is cut out for it. The pandemic worsened the problem of recruiting and retaining public school teachers. According to the National Center for Education Statistics, 86% of K-12 public schools in the U.S. face challenges in hiring teachers for […]

State tourism department bill seeks sweeping exemption to public records law


Gov. Bill Lee’s administration is seeking a sweeping exemption to the public records law that would make confidential any records of the Tennessee Department of Tourism Development that the commissioner determines are too sensitive to release. The bill, HB1692 / SB 2093, is up for its first consideration in the House Public Service Subcommittee on Tuesday. The proposed law is modeled […]

Ron Hart: Democrats’ “Payback Politics” playbook reads like Lenin


When you have bad policies and cannot sustain your office based on your quantifiable results, you do what Democrats have done these last few years. You weaponize the government against your enemies. It is not a novel construct. In 1918 the oppressive Soviet leader, Vladimir Lenin, laid out his plan to keep the communists in power with his infamous “Hanging […]
