[Editor’s note: This letter was written by Schiff Sovereign’s CEO, Viktorija Simulynaite, who is on the ground in El Salvador.] The first thing my driver said to me after I got off the plane in El Salvador was, “Welcome to my country. It’s very safe here now.” I chuckled to myself because this
When the 56 delegates to the Second Continental Congress ratified the Declaration of Independence 248 years ago tomorrow, they were creating much more than a nation. They were giving birth to an idea. America, at its core, is an idea. And it’s one that ranks as one of the greatest innovations in the
Tiffany Hart spent nearly a decade working at the World Economic Forum until she finally reached her breaking point in 2022. “We don’t eat our own dog food,” she said of her former organization. “We [the World Economic Forum] promote inclusion and improving the state of the world and women’s issues but do
“The President is very sharp,” former congressman and MSNBC host Joe Scarborough told audiences not long ago. “Some NATO leaders have told me they were very surprised… because he is so sharp and he’s on top of everything.” MSNBC further trotted out various guests and hosts, including Mika Brzezinski, to gush about Joe
Senator Elizabeth Warren gave another speech on taxes a few days ago proving, yet again, that she is coming for your money. It’s always thinly veiled behind the refrain of making “the rich” (as defined in her sole discretion) pay their “fair share” (also defined in her sole discretion). Frankly she’s been shrieking
When Publius Licinus Valerianus (known to history as Valerian) became emperor in 253 AD, the Roman Empire was in the midst of the ‘Crisis of the Third Century’— plagues, inflation, escalating conflicts, growing social tensions, rising crime, declining trade, and a struggling economy. But Valerian had decades of political experience, so everyone thought
Tim Sheehy is a former Navy SEAL who graduated from the United States Naval Academy and served multiple combat tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. He earned a Bronze Star with Valor for his distinguished service and a Purple Heart for his wounds. And after leaving the Navy, he started a successful aerial firefighting
I have written to you more times than I can count about how the US government’s own budget officials forecast a $20 trillion increase in national debt over the next ten years. Remember, this isn’t some wild conspiracy theory. This was from an official projection released by the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) back
Unlike Joe Biden, 81-year-old Benjamin Franklin was at the top of his game and still making incredible contributions to the United States. It was the spring of 1787– five and a half years since the last major battle of the American Revolution– yet still more than two years before the Constitution would take
The blood was barely dry in the streets outside of the Bastille when the brand-new government of revolutionary France started confiscating assets. It was November 2, 1789. And by a margin of 508 to 346, France’s fledgling legislators– on both the Left and the Right– voted to nationalize all of the real estate
Rumor has it the Chair of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), Lina “Genghis” Khan, has set her wrath on a major US liquor distributor for the egregious crime of selling in bulk. The company in the path Khan’s fury is called Southern Glazer’s Wine and Spirits; they distribute alcohol to bars and restaurants
“Americans are feeling uneasy for reasons that are hard to pin down,” quipped economist Paul Krugman in a New York Times interview published earlier this week. Reasons that are hard to pin down? Bear in mind that this man received a Nobel Prize– our society’s most prominent award for intellectual achievement. Yet he
There is a well-known modern proverb (often attributed to the novelist G. Michael Hopf) that goes, “Weak men create hard times, hard times create strong men, strong men create good times, good times create weak men.” The saying sums up the cyclical nature of the rise and fall of societies– and it’s a
On the 1st of October 1791, the 755 freshly elected members of France’s brand-new Legislative Assembly took their seats for the first time in Paris’s famous Salle du Manege– an indoor horse-riding arena that had been converted into a giant meeting hall. While there were numerous political parties in France at the time
It was March 23, 2010, when Barack Obama signed his infamous “Affordable Care Act” into law. And in theory it was a nice idea. Healthcare in the US was incredibly expensive, and he wanted to bring costs down. But the execution was abysmal. Since 2010, the number of uninsured Americans is still far,
