"Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people He has chosen as His own inheritance." — Psalm 33:12 History records the rise and fall of kingdoms, empires, and republics. Ancient Greece gave civilization democracy but could not preserve it. Rome built the greatest empire of the ancient world, yet eventually collapsed under the weight of its own excesses. Great powers have risen, flourished, and disappeared into history, leaving behind little more than monuments and memories. Yet t...
When Katie Britt assumed her role on the powerful Senate Appropriations Committee, she did so as the most junior Senator of the entire body, ranking last in seniority. She was low on the totem pole, and she had big shoes to fill taking over legendary Senator Richard Shelby’s seat. He ranked fourth in overall seniority and was probably one of the five most powerful elected officials in the country when he retired as Ranking Member of the Senate Appropriations Committee. Many expected it would b...
The June 16 Republican runoff yielded the final revelation of the 2026 election year. Winning the GOP Primary nomination is tantamount to election in the Heart of Dixie.

Tommy Tuberville prevailed in the Governor’s race, garnering an amazing 85% of the vote. Caroleene Dobson won the Secretary of State race against two opponents.

Key was a lawyer and obviously had other talents as well. Key was born in 1779; his father was a lawyer and a judge. Though Frances considered becoming an Episcopal priest, he decided to go into law instead. He “read” law under his brother-in-law and Judge Jeremiah Townley Chase. He passed the Bar in 1801. He was considered a good lawyer, practicing in Frederick, Maryland and Washington, D.C. His law practice was successful and was involved in several important cases, appearing even before the...
Today, just about everybody understands that Elon Musk’s greatest dream is to establish a permanent human colony on the planet Mars. Obviously, it is a gargantuan proposal, and many people are claiming that it is utterly impossible. For starters, Musk can’t just jump in and attempt it immediately. Right now, we are in an intense race with China to send American astronauts to the Moon’s south pole to claim the limited strategic high spots with 24/7 daylight for power generation and ice-b...
WHEN in the Course of human Events, it becomes necessary for one People to dissolve the Political Bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the Powers of the Earth, the separate and equal Station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent Respect to the Opinions of Mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the Separation. Although not a governing document, the Declaration of Independence provides the blueprint f...
As adults, we all can look back on our lives and find people or moments that will forever be etched into our memories. Some of them will not only forever be remembered, but they are the ones that changed the trajectory of our lives. It may be the death of a loved one, an illness, or a tragedy, but these periods moved us to places we would have never otherwise gone. Thankfully some of these events were good as well. For instance, I can remember my first time fishing at the lake and my first time...
This Robservation is actually special to me. Not only is it a celebration of the birthday for what I consider to be the greatest country on Earth, but this is also my 200th Robservation. I just wanted to thank Mrs. Grant and say what an honor it has been for me to write for her. During the 250th birthday bash for this great country of ours, emotions are swimming wildly in my head. For me, in my mind at least, my service to this country started long before I even knew it. How? Well, I absolutely...
Summer is officially here, and with it comes longer days, outdoor gatherings, and the kind of warmth that draws people outside. But as temperatures climb, so do the risks to our health. Whether you’re a seasoned adult managing chronic conditions or simply someone who loves a backyard barbecue, understanding how heat affects the body can be the difference between a great summer and a dangerous one. The human body is remarkably good at regulating its own temperature, but only up to a point. When the mercury rises above 90°F, especially with hi...
