Op-ed views and opinions expressed are solely those of the author. The Trump administration took a well-deserved victory lap last week for repealing more than 100 Biden-era rules for every new regulation. This will save U.S. businesses potentially hundreds of billions of dollars of unnecessary costs. Gone are discriminatory racial preferences, Green New Deal mandates and electric vehicle mandates — to name a few. President Donald Trump has solidly established himself as the “deregulation president.” That’s why it’s an ongoing mystery why the Trump Treasury Department and IRS have refused to repeal one of former President Joe Biden’s most onerous…

Iran? Russia? China? Senate Dems? The Maduros themselves? (Naah. Too obvious.)Iran certainly qualifies for the medal round here.

In a 4-1 ruling on Tuesday, the court declared the bans unconstitutional, citing a 2012 state constitutional amendment that protects the right to make health care decisions, despite the fact that killing babies in abortions is a denial of health care for unborn babies.
