CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY APRIL 1, 2020          I CALL TODAY “THE ATHIEST’S NATIONAL HOLIDAY” BECAUSE “THE FOOL HAS SAID IN HIS HEART THERE IS NO GOD.”             SOME HISTORIANS BELIEVE THE ORIGIN OF APRIL FOOL’S DAY DATES BACK TO 1582, WHEN FRANCE SWITCHED FROM THE JULIAN CALENDAR TO THE GREGORIAN CALENDAR, AS CALLED FOR BY…

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY MARCH 31, 2020          SOME PEOPLE, LIKE PRIZE FIGHTERS, STAY TOO LONG ON THE SCENE WHEN THEY SHOULD HAVE RETIRED LONG AGO. BEST EXAMPLE? THE 80-YEAR-OLD SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE, NANCY PELOSI.          PELOSI CLAIMS PRESIDENT TRUMP IS RESPONSIBLE FOR MANY OF THE DEATHS FROM CORONAVIRUS BECAUSE HE DIDN’T ACT FAST ENOUGH.…

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY MARCH 30, 2020          ARE WE ON THE VERGE OF ANOTHER GREAT AWAKENING BECAUSE OF THE CORONAVIRUS?          THAT’S AN ARGUMENT MADE RECENTLY IN THE OPINION PAGES OF THE WALL STREET JOURNAL BY ROBERT NICHOLOLSON, PRESIDENT OF THE PHILOS PROJECT.          NICHOLSON WRITES THAT AMERICA HAS NEARLY FORGOTTEN THE SACRIFICES AND DEPRIVATIONS…

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY MARCH 27, 2020          THE $2.2 TRILLION AID PACKAGE PASSED THE SENATE BY UNANIMOUS VOTE WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND NOW GOES TO THE HOUSE WHERE YOU CAN COUNT ON SPEAKER NANCY PELOSI AND OTHER DEMOCRATS AND PROBABLY SOME REPUBLICANS TO LOAD IT UP WITH EVEN MORE SPENDING.          THE SENATE BILL WOULD SEND…

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY MARCH 26, 2020          THE CURRENT PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES HAS BEEN SUBJECTED TO MORE CRITICAL AND BIASED PRESS THAN ANY PRESIDENT SINCE RICHARD NIXON. AND A GOOD CASE COULD BE MADE THAT IN PRESIDENT TRUMP’S CASE IT IS MUCH WORSE.          THAT HAS NOT BEEN REFLECTED IN POLLS, HOWEVER. MUCH…

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY MARCH 23, 2020          TODAY’S COMMENTARY IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY AN EDITORIAL IN FRIDAY’S WALL STREET JOURNAL ABOUT THE ECONOMIC DOWNTURN CAUSED BY THE CORONAVIRUS:          “…NO ONE SHOULD THINK THIS ROLLING ECONOMIC CALAMITY IS OVER.

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY MARCH 20, 2020          PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS DECLARED WAR, NOT ON ANOTHER COUNTRY, BUT ON THE CORONAVIRUS. HE’S SIGNED A BILL THAT WILL SUPPOSEDLY GIVE $1000 TO EVERY AMERICAN, OR AT LEAST MOST AMERICANS.          THE MONEY WILL BE BORROWED, OF COURSE, BECAUSE WE ARE $23 TRILLION IN DEBT AND THIS WILL…

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY MARCH 19, 2020          THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION IS GOING TO GIVE A LOT OF PEOPLE A CHECK FOR $1000. THE GOAL IS TO STAVE-OFF THE EFFECTS OF JOB LOSSES, OR LAY-OFFS DUE TO THE CORONAVIRUS SCARE. NO ONE ASKS WHERE THE MONEY WILL COME FROM. AND WHAT HAPPENS IF THIS VIRUS LASTS…

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY MARCH 18, 2020          SOME YEARS AGO I WROTE A BOOK CALLED “THE THINGS THAT MATTER MOST.” THE TITLE CAN SERVE AS A QUESTION DURING THIS UNCERTAIN TIME WITH THE CORONAVIRUS FORCING US TO STAY HOME, NOT DINE IN RESTAURANTS, OR GO TO SPORTS CONTESTS OR MOVIES, OR ANYWHERE ELSE PEOPLE GATHER…

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY MARCH 17, 2020          SUNDAY NIGHT’S BIDEN-SANDERS DEBATE WAS PREDICTABLE AND BORING.
