British politician Dennis Healey wisely advised, “When you’re in a hole, the first rule is to stop digging.” The national debt might be the world’s deepest grave, surpassing $36 trillion with a deficit projected at $1.3 trillion for this fiscal 2025 alone. It’s no wonder Americans cast aside career gravediggers in both parties and elected a private sector builder to tame bureaucratic bloat.

Every April since President Donald Trump signed the first proclamation in 2018, Second Chance Month has served as an annual reminder to recognize the potential of people with criminal records to turn their lives around. The First Step Act of 2018 remains one of President Trump’s most important legacies from his first term. It has been a tremendous success by virtually any measure, and it’s part of a critical but underserved area of legislative reform.
Rebuilding trust in America's institutions starts with common sense

Mar 4, 2025 | washingtontimes.com | Timothy Head

OPINION: Americans’ precipitous loss of faith in American institutions is an important story — and a long-running one, at this point — but it isn’t the whole story.

With Election Day less than two months away, voters still have no idea what the Democratic nominee for president truly stands for. While Vice President Kamala Harris has offered only scripted speeches and two prerecorded TV interviews, fundamental questions about her plans for the nation remain unanswered.
Georgia needs better prison oversight and accountability

Sep 10, 2024 | ajc.com | Timothy Head |Frank Russo

Americans rely on our justice system to hold those accountable who violate the law and cause harm to their fellow citizens. But who is responsible for holding the justice system accountable when it falls short of its own standards? Recently, Congress provided a partial answer by overwhelmingly passing the bipartisan Federal Prison Oversight Act.
