Virginians can look at the California catastrophe to see what happens when state and local governments are run by Democrat climate crazies and DEI devotees.

Motherhood isn't easy, especially in households without extended family close by to provide support. It's exhausting both physically and emotionally—yet it's ultimately the most rewarding career on the planet.

Virginia already has higher income taxes than most of its neighbors, unlike a decade ago. Back in 2015, Virginia had lower income tax rates than West Virginia, North Carolina, and Kentucky.

I know that some Christian denominations have become little more than social clubs with pews, but it’s impossible to conceive of any church - no matter how diluted - that would long for a world without heaven or God.

My first reaction: Just what we need, people convicted of violent felonies working construction on our houses, driving for Uber, spraying our interior nooks and crannies for exterminating companies. 

Virginia Democrats are wasting no time proposing a huge tax increase on Virginians by slapping a 5 percent tax on virtually every service in the commonwealth

I thought my son, who believes that one set of clothes can take a man through four seasons, was unique. Or part of a weird sect of Beach guys who think that living in a sandy environment requires summer duds all year.

Pharrell Williams apparently has the city by the short hairs.

Someday, a real investigative journalist  or a presidential historian will publish an unblinking account of what was going on behind closed doors at the White House to hide the leader of the Free World from the people.

According to hysterics in the media, the bird flu - detected in a single patient in Louisiana -  shows signs of “concerning” mutations. An outbreak in chickens and cows has caused California (of course) to declare a state of emergency.

Maybe the Gateway Metro station will get a few more riders when Amazon resume working in the office five days a week effective January 2.

The U.S. healthcare system is indubitably a hideous mess.

Frankly, the number one goal of the schools ought to be to bring all students to fluency in English as quickly as possible. Offering proficiency tests in foreign languages defeats that purpose.
