Does Trump’s Would-Be Assassin Justify Border Controls? by Jacob G. Hornberger September 17, 2024 Donald Trump’s alleged would-be assassin, Ryan Routh, is an American citizen. Presumably he was born in the United States. He obviously traveled across state lines to get to Florida. That raises an important question: Should the U.S. Constitution be amended to enable each state to establish border controls around the state to protect the citizenry from violent people ...
We Are All Central Planners Now by Jacob G. Hornberger September 16, 2024 No matter how one comes out on who won the presidential debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, one thing is crystal clear: Hardly anyone questions whether the president and the federal government should be managing the economy.

Freedom Was the Loser in Last Night’s Debate by Jacob G. Hornberger September 11, 2024 No matter who is considered the winner of last night’s presidential debate, one thing is painfully clear: Regardless of who wins the election, we will continue to live in an unfree society. The election will simply decide who is going to be our ruler — Donald Trump or Kamala Harris. Unfortunately, the presidential race has been devoid of ...
Trump’s Grand-Jury Indictments Don’t Mean Squat by Jacob G. Hornberger September 10, 2024 A recent Los Angeles Times column by Times’s columnist Jackie Calmes entitled “Should a Five-Time Loser with Grand Juries Be President?” displays a woeful lack of understanding regarding grand-jury indictments. Calmes’s article, of course, is about Donald Trump and argues that the five grand-jury indictments against Trump are a good reason for rejecting his candidacy for ...
Tampa Trial on Free Speech Exposes U.S. Hypocrisy by Jacob G. Hornberger September 9, 2024 As I have written in my last two blog posts (here and here), the U.S. government is prosecuting members of a small political group named the African People’s Socialist Party and its related “Uhuru” movement.

First They Came for the Communists by Jacob G. Hornberger September 6, 2024 Yesterday, I wrote about a trial in U.S. District Court in Tampa in which federal prosecutors are keeping us safe by prosecuting and hoping to jail members of a group called the African People's Socialist Party and its related “Uhuru Movement.” (Uhuru is Swahili for “freedom”). The government is alleging that the defendants have been secretly ...

Why the Continued Silence on Evan Gershkovich? by Jacob G. Hornberger September 4, 2024 It has now been more than a month since Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich was released from Russian custody. Gershkovich had been incarcerated for more than a year on charges of being a spy for the U.S. government, a charge fiercely denied by both the Journal and the U.S. government. Throughout the ordeal, Journal officials and U.S. ...
Economic Ignorance on the Minimum Wage by Jacob G. Hornberger September 3, 2024 It absolutely amazes me that there are still people who defend a government-mandated minimum wage. It is truly a testament to the long-lasting effect of indoctrination and propaganda to which students are subjected in public (i.e. government) schools and state-supported colleges and universities. The latest example of this phenomenon is the editorial board at the Los Angeles Times. ...
