Alabama has a treasure in Richard Shelby. He is not only the longest-serving U.S. senator in Alabama history, he is also the most successful.

Social justice warriors ignore many differences that have little or nothing to do with discrimination but have an enormous impact on outcomes.

That President Trump gets high marks on the economy is no surprise, as figures released last week show it is booming. 

My longtime friend and colleague, Dr. Thomas Sowell, has just published a revised and enlarged edition of “Discrimination and Disparities.”

Every so often, Alabama politicians pragmatically have to acquiesce to the mandates of federal judges and grant our transgressing citizens their rights as determined by the courts.

Bizarro World: Those of us who remember Superman comics, there was a Bizarro World that was the opposite of the real world, and we are heading that way if America does not put an end to these radical Democrats and the love for non-Americans and free everything.

There's a push to change laws to permit both criminals serving time and ex-criminals the right to vote. Guess which party is pushing the most for these legal changes. If you guessed that it was the Democrats, go to the head of the class. Bernie Sanders says states should allow felons to vote…

If one needed evidence of the gross ignorance of millennials, and their teachers and college professors, it's their solid support for socialism and socialist presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders.

I am furious, frustrated and disheartened by Republican politicians from the county level to the state level. Those who are supposed to represent us and support or oppose what “We the people” want no longer do so. They all support nothing but themselves and what they want and their voters be…

Recently you ran an article published by the NY Times about St. Clair Correctional Facility, and as usual, this article was written about how hard it is on the inmates there. What no one ever seems to look at is how hard it is on the staff, particularly the officers who work around those inm…

MONTGOMERY — One of the obvious political changes in Alabama government over the last decade with the Republican takeover of the Legislature has been the reluctance to raise new revenue to fund state government. Many of the current Republican legislators came to Montgomery in 2010 with a no …

This past week state Sen. Del Marsh made headlines when he introduced a bill that effectively removes Alabama schools from Common Core by 2021. Do you support or oppose this bill and what does Common Core mean to the average citizens?

Like ALL memorials of every war, Confederate statues and memorials are to honor the sacrifices of soldiers who served in a war, nothing more, nothing less. The narrative stamped on them today is that they were erected as memorials to white supremacy, which is just not true.

President Donald Trump made fighting illegal immigration a centerpiece of his successful 2016 campaign, and two-plus years into this presidency, it remains a prominent issue.

Dear Bernie, I recently came upon a Facebook post you made in which you blamed climate change for the deadly Lee County, AL tornadoes.

I never cease to be amazed and surprised at some of the Supreme Court rulings these days. For instance, they have just posted a decision that sets a precedent affecting military retirees who commit crimes AFTER separation from active duty.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez claims that "the world is going to end in 12 years if we don't address climate change." The people at the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change agree, saying that to avoid some of the most devastating impacts of climate change, the world must slash carbon em…
