Dems: If it ain't broke, break it

As former Speaker Newt Gingrich said recently during a Fox News Channel interview, "Democrats lie better than Republicans tell the truth." He's right.

Socialism and the delusion of rich people as your enemy

You might have seen Dan’s piece on Friday about the food crisis in Venezuela, or earlier in the week about the fact that young Bernie Sanders supporters demonstrate in polls that they have no idea what socialism actually is.

China suddenly devalues its currency

We have a situation that is developing in China. I mentioned to you last week and the week before that China was building up its currency, building up its reserves of U.S. Dollars for the purpose of one day making a play to become the world's currency- replacing the U.S. Dollar.

And now for some good news: Ban on Internet taxes is about to become permanent

If you told me Washington almost never does anything positive, I’d have a hard time disagreeing with you. But at least the use of the word “almost” means nothing is absolute, so I’m glad to actually have some good news for you. Congress has passed, and President Obama is expected to sign, a permanent ban on the taxing of e-mail and other Internet services.

What do you tell the candidates who remain? To work on the right problems!

The winnowing is really going strong at the moment. In the past couple of weeks, the Republican nomination race has said goodbye to Mike Huckabee, Rand Paul, Chris Christie and Carly Fiorina. I can't remember when George Pataki quit because I'm not sure he was really running in the first place, and don't get me started on Lindsey Graham.

Fed covering up Obama's role in 'cold' economic conditions

Republicans say the Federal Reserve has been secretive, ineffective and out of touch with the economic realities of ordinary Americans. This is what Janet Yellen, Chairman of the Fed, had to say recently: "Financial conditions in the United States have recently become less supportive of growth."

Uncle Sam doesn't have a sugar daddy

I have some good news and some bad news about our national debt. The bad news is, it has now surpassed nineteen trillion dollars. For those of you that may have forgotten your elementary school math, one trillion is a million million dollars. Nineteen TRILLION! That's the bad news.

Seoul-long talking! Hello missiles!

Seoul Korea and Washington have agreed to begin talks about deploying the THADD Missile Defense System in South Korea, a defense official told reporters on Sunday. And it's obvious as to why folks. They need to have a missile defense system in South Korea because North Korea has demonstrated...One, they cannot be trusted... Two, they do not keep United Nations agreements... And three, they want to have the military power including nuclear weapons in order to be able to threaten anybody else in the world. That's what they're trying to do. So I hope that they do more than talk about it and they go ahead and deploy them.

Uh oh: 600,000 people have left the workforce in the past two months

It happened again on Friday. Two pieces of news that don’t seem possible to square with one another. On the one hand, the U-3 unemployment rate declined to 4.9 percent, which sounds like wonderful news! On the other hand, the economy only created 151,000 new jobs, which is not even enough to keep up with population growth.

Hillary and Bernie are working on the wrong problems

Do you know that the average monthly income in China is $952 in U.S. dollars? Not too good. But wait, in Cuba it's only $25, which is a pretty big problem when a gallon of gas is almost $5.

Ouch: U.S. economy stumbles with 0.7 percent growth in 4Q 2015

We’re always told that consistent economic growth will get us out of all our fiscal problems. That’s not true, although it would certainly help. We recently told you that deficit projections for coming years are looking pretty scary, and even those projections depend on some pretty rosy assumptions about future economic growth.

Voters no longer accept spoon-fed political noise against candidates like Trump

After seven TV interviews and four radio interviews in two days promoting the release of my new book, The Right Problems, I realized that many media people are still trying to understand why Donald Trump is still dominating the Republican presidential race. After all, establishment politicians and political pundits continue to say he can't win the nomination.

Talking up The Right Problems on Fox & Friends

I've been in New York since Monday, having come here for the launch of my new book The Right Problems, and we had a lot of fun doing multiple shows Tuesday on Fox News Channel and Fox Business Channel. On Fox & Friends First (yes, the really early one!), they gave me a chance to talk not only about the book, but about the latest tussle between Donald Trump and Ted Cruz - which of course is interesting for me because I like both of them and I've spoken at rallies for both of them recently:

The Dream on hold

The Dream didn't start with Martin Luther King, Jr. It started with the Founding Fathers, when they declared, "We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal . . ."
