Linnebur: A look at Sackett v EPA’s rechanneling of water governance in America

By Tyler Linnebur | Commentary, ConservAmerica A year has passed since the Supreme Court's ruling in Sackett v. EPA and its impact on America's water regulation is unmistakable. For decades, Western states have grappled with the complexities of water rights and regulations, given the resource's immense value and critical importance to the region. This landmark decision, which narrows the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA's ) and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ (USACE’s) authority and shifts more responsibility to the states, has triggered significant changes in both the ongoing debate and the ways states protect their water resources. By clarifying the constitutionally limited scope of federal authority, the Sackett ruling aligns with Congress's original intent to reg...

Antoni: Washington ate your lunch, then blamed business

By EJ Antoni | The Heritage Foundation You’re paying more for food because Congress refuses to control its spending. That was the testimony I recently gave before a Senate committee, but the committee chair, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, refused to believe the evidence presented. Her plan is not to reduce government spending, but to drive your food prices even higher. Ms. Warren, Massachusetts Democrat, and many other politicians are to blame for the inflation that has ravaged the American people over the last three years. Our representatives in Congress, along with President Biden in the White House, spent trillions of dollars we didn’t have—and that money had to come from somewhere. It’s coming out of your wallet right now, through the hidden tax of inflation. To finance the stratos...

Pavlich: Your hard-earned dollars shouldn’t go to Leftist media outlets

By Katie Pavlich | Townhall.com Each year, more than $500 million of your hard-earned tax dollars get funneled through the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and into the bank account of National Public Radio (NPR), a far-left media outlet dedicated to tearing down America and the values you believe in. NPR claims to be "an independent news organization committed to informing the public about the world around us." But for decades, NPR has been dedicated to attacking conservatives and carrying water for Democratic politicians. Remember this from the 2020 presidential election? "We don't want to waste our time on stories that are not really stories, and we don't want to waste the listeners' and readers' time on stories that are just pure distractions," NPR Managing Editor Samuels s...

Satirical testimony zaps lefty Colorado lawmakers on guns, furries, abortion

By Colorado Peak Politics Step aside Babylon Bee. There’s a new satire game in town and the conservative folks still left in Colorado are proud to call Scott Shamblin and Nicole McBurney their homies. Their videos mocking the state’s ridiculously progressive legislature have gone viral across social media as frontman Shamblin and writer McBurney piss off the libs while sending rational thinking folks into hysterical fits of laughter. We strongly suspect those are not their real names, and after seeing their videos, PeakNation™ will likely agree. And applaud. Behold! Gen Z has a sense of humor.
