Out of the tumult and chaos of the 2016 election cycle, there emerges a painfully clear lesson: the Republican Party is a house divided against itself. For proof of this, consider only that 17 candidates vied for the Party nomination—enough to warrant “secondary debates”—with 12 of them having enough support to participate in at least […]

On January 22, 1973 the Supreme Court struck down all the abortion laws of this nation. The decision that loosed the evil of abortion unto the unborn is remarkable not for its insight in the principles of law but for its disavowal of them.
