CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY DECEMBER 31, 2018          WHAT WILL 2019 BRING? ONLY GOD KNOWS. I DOUBT MANY PEOPLE COULD HAVE PREDICTED ALL OF THE EVENTS OF 2018 ONE YEAR AGO. PROBABLY NO ONE COULD.          ARE YOU LOOKING TO GOVERNMENT TO IMPROVE YOUR LIFE OR THE LIVES OF OTHERS? HERE’S SOME SOLID ADVIDE FROM AN ANCIENT LEADER.…

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY DECEMBER 28, 2018          I THINK I READ SOMEWHERE THERE ARE 95 OF THEM – NEWLY ELECTED HOUSE MEMBERS WHO ARE CALLED “PROGRESSIVES.” THEY USED TO BE LIBERALS BUT WHEN THAT WORD BECAME A NEGATIVE IN SOME CIRCLES, THEY CHANGED IT TO PROGRESSIVE. SAME POLICIES – HIGHER TAXES, MORE SPENDING, BIGGER GOVERNMENT, MORE…

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY DECEMBER 27, 2018          THE NEW CONGRESS WILL BE SEATED NEXT WEEK. DEMOCRATS WILL CONTROL THE HOUSE AND YOU CAN COUNT ON INVESTIGATION AFTER INVESTIGATION OF PRESIDENT TRUMP, HIS FAMILY AND HIS BUSINESSES. YOU CAN ALSO COUNT ON SPECIAL COUNSUL ROBERT MUELLER’S REPORT, WHICH AT A MINIMUM IS LIKELY TO BE HIGHLY CRITICAL…

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARYT DECEMBER 26, 2018          THE STOCK MARKET HAS FALLEN MORE THAN TWO THOUSAND POINTS SINCE IT’S HIGH OF JUST A FEW WEEKS AGO. PRESIDENT TRUMP BLAMES IT ON THE FEDERAL RESERVE AND THE DECISION BY ITS CHAIRMAN TO RAISE INTEREST RATES.          THE PRESIDENT IS UNILATERALLY WITHDRAWING TROOPS FROM SYRIA AND AFGHANISTAN WITHOUT CONSULTING…

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY DECEMBER 25, 2018          IT’S THE SAME EVERY YEAR. THE SECULAR PROGRESSIVES TROT OUT SO-CALLED LEARNED PROFESSORS WHO QUESTION WHETHER JESUS WAS REALLY BORN OF A VIRGIN. OTHERS QUESTION WHETHER HE EXISTED AT ALL. EASTER BRINGS OUT THE SAME SKEPTICS AND THEIR DOUBTS ARE REPORTED AS IF THEY HAVE CREDIBILITY.          THE NATURAL MAN…

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY DECEMBER 24, 2018          THE WEEK BEFORE CHRISTMAS IS A TIME WHEN MOST PEOPLE TURN AWAY FROM POLITICS AND FOCUS ON LAST MINUTE SHOPPING, PARTIES, CHURCH SERVICES AND CAROLING.          THAT WAS NOT LAST WEEK. DEFENSE SECRETARY JAMES MATTIS ANNOUNCED HIS RESIGNATION BECAUSE OF DISPUTES WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP OVER TROOP PULLOUTS FROM SYRIA AND…

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY DECEMBER 21, 2018          ONE OF THE FEW THINGS I LEARNED IN PHYSICS CLASS WAS THAT NATURE ABHORS A VACUUM. THAT’S WHY I’M CONCERNED ABOUT PRESIDENT TRUMP’S UNILATERAL DECISION TO PULL ALL 2200 U.S. FORCES OUT OF SYRIA. HE SAYS WE HAVE DEFEATED ISIS AND DECLARED VICTORY.          THE PROBLEM IS THAT ISIS AND…

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY DECEMBER 20, 2018          IT APPEARS PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS CAVED ON THE BORDER WALL FOR NOW. LOOKS LIKE THERE WILL BE A CONTINUING RESOLUTION TO KEEP SPENDING GOING AND AVOID A SHUTDOWN OVER THE CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS.          IN WASHINGTON, EVEN NATIONAL SECURITY IS NOW POLITICAL. DEMOCRATS, INCLUDING CHUCK SCHUMER, WHO ONCE SUPPORTED SPENDING MORE…

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY DECEMBER 19, 2018          IN A CLASSIC CASE OF HOW THE MIGHTY CAN FALL, LES MOONVES, THE FORMER CHAIRMAN OF CBS – THE MAN WHO MADE THAT NETWORK NUMBER ONE IN PRIME TIME FOR YEARS – HAS BEEN DENIED $120 MILLION IN SEVERENCE PAY. LET THAT SINK IN FOR A MOMENT $120 MILLION.…

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY DECEMBER 18, 2018          WE’VE SEEN THIS BAD PLAY BEFORE. THE U.S. GOVERNMENT WILL “SHUT DOWN” SATURDAY MORNING AT 12:01 AM UNLESS PRESIDENT TRUMP GIVES UP ON FUNDING FOR THE BORDER WALL.          THE PRESIDENT SAYS HE WON’T DO THAT, THAT AMERICA NEEDS THE WALL TO KEEP OUT ILLEGALS, INCLUDING DRUG DEALERS AND OTHER…
