“On July 14, the House of Representatives passed the Sunshine Protection Act by a vote of 308 to 117. The bill would impose Daylight Saving Time year-round, nationwide, and President Donald Trump has promised to sign it. It now sits in the Senate, where Majority Leader John Thune has voiced misgivings about a federal mandate, and Senator Tom Cotton has asked that it never reach the floor. The ensuing debate has been conducted entirely in terms of policy: circadian health versus evening commerce, school-bus-stop safety versus after-work golf. Those are pertinent questions, and they have a clear answer. But there is an antecedent question that no one in Congress appears to have asked: where, exactly, does the federal government get the power to legislate noon away from the sun?” (07/28/26)

“Preventing prices from adjusting to demand doesn’t create more stadium seats. It just hands more of the scarcity premium to resellers.” (07/28/26)

“The Federal Open Market Committee is expected to leave its policy rate unchanged at this week’s meeting, with CME FedWatch assigning close to a 65 percent probability that the FOMC will maintain the current target range of 3.5 to 3.75 percent. For the second meeting in a row, that expected outcome is at odds with the guidance provided by the leading monetary rules. This raises the question of whether the new Warsh-led Fed is prepared to follow through on its promise of delivering price stability.” (07/28/26)

“In the 19th century, thousands of miles of railroad were built, and the opposition to them was intense. These weren’t organized environmental groups. They were conservationists, local residents, business owners, landowners, parents, farmers, Native American tribes and taxpayers enraged at how their elected leaders were spending their money. Many in the 19th century didn’t want trains rolling through their backyards. Many today don’t want data center complexes in theirs. You can’t blame them. Where would America be today without its railroads? … More than 150 years later, little has changed. Today’s data centers are yesterday’s railroads. They are the infrastructure behind everything that powers our economy. Railroads moved freight. Data centers move information and make modern commerce possible.” (07/28/26)

“Socialism is metastasizing like a cancer throughout our country. Though collectivism will inevitably fail, because it always does, it is already causing significant damage to our nation’s political and social fabric. It must be stopped. It is not enough to defeat Socialism at the ballot box. The factories producing this infection — the far-left faculties of our colleges and universities — must be starved of taxpayer money. Thankfully, the Trump White House has taken measures to start that process.” (07/28/26)
