Editorial: Democrats block infrastructure

Tulsa Beacon

President Donald Trump is a builder. That is what he has done during his whole professional career. During his campaign, he promised to go to work on America’s infrastructure – roads, highways, bridges, etc. That is not going to happen because of Nancy Pelosi and the do-nothing Democrats in the House of Representatives. Trump stands…

Time to roll back the CAFE standards

Tulsa Beacon

The Trump administration is trying to strike a blow for rational and honest government, so you know it’s getting a lot of pushback.

But the…

Editorial: Democrats and homosexual bills

Tulsa Beacon

Democrats in the House of Representatives passed a bill to give special rights to anyone who claims to be a homosexual.

Editorial: Trump vs. the chamber of commerce

Tulsa Beacon

The relationship between President Trump and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce is a train wreck. That was reinforced by an article by Brody Mullins and Alex Leary for the Wall Street Journal. The chamber is the biggest lobbying group in Washington, D.C., and a big part of the “swamp” that Trump is working to drain….

‘Anything Goes’ as progressives struggle to regain some power

Tulsa Beacon

It seems to me that those on the ‘left side of the aisles’ tend to become more and more vehement and uncivil when they feel that they are facing a losing battle in their efforts to secure absolute power over the rest of the population.  And that is true whether in the United States or…

Biden wants a ‘straight’ America but Obama doesn’t

Tulsa Beacon

Joe Biden says he wants to make America “straight” again. If that’s true, he is just the opposite of Barack Obama who wanted to push homosexuality. That’s what Biden said on April 25, the day after he announced he was running for president. Biden said, “America is coming back like we used to be: ethical,…
