    America deserves health updates from elected officials | Chicago Tribune

      We were glad to see the photo Sunday of a smiling U.S. Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., alongside his wife, Elaine Chao. The 84-year-old McConnell revealed Sunday that he had been hospitalized following a rough June 14 fall at his home leading, he said, to “mild pneumonia.”

        Iran war could shape American policy for decades | Jonah Goldberg

          The war with Iran that never really ended is back on. Like everybody else, including the Trump administration and the Iranian regime, I have no idea how it will end. But it eventually will, and how it will be remembered will matter enormously.

                        Every Wisconsin motorcyclist knows the feeling. When you need a repair, you call the local dealership and find out they won’t touch a bike older than 10 years. So you call the next closest one. Same answer.

                        Is socialist wave with Francesca Hong the left’s tea party moment? | David M. Drucker

                          The Democratic establishment, shaken by the rise of progressive socialists, is right to wonder where this wave might lead. The similarly populist movement of tea party Republicans, however muddled, foreshadowed President Donald Trump.

                          Being a patriot requires more than saluting the flag or singing the national anthem. It goes beyond serving in the military or voting in elections.

                          We have so much to be grateful for as we celebrate our nation’s 250th anniversary. We’ve built a nation -- a superpower -- from scratch, based on the idea that we can govern ourselves.

                          This Saturday, on the 250th anniversary of our nation's founding, we should reflect on the ideals expressed in our Declaration of Independence, a proclamation of our freedom from monarchy and our commitment to self-government. We are now living in a pseudo-monarchy with a president, Donald Trump, who tramples our freedoms, disregards our Constitution and threatens our right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

                          I believe most Americans can rightly celebrate our country’s 250th birthday because this country has proven to be one of the world’s sturdiest examples of democracy.

                          The Declaration of Independence was only the beginning, not the end, of the fight for our freedom. The bloody Revolutionary War cemented our independence from the British Empire five years later at the Battle of Yorktown in 1781.
