President Trump Gave A Positive, Hopeful Inaugural Address
by Rep. John J. Duncan Jr. | Jan 29, 2025 | Featured Articles
It was entirely predictable and at times almost humorous to see the sour, partisan reaction by Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Hillary Clinton, and some in the national media to President Trump’s inaugural address last week. It was obvious that Biden, Harris and Mrs....
Israel Against The World – With US Aid
by Rep. John J. Duncan Jr. | Jan 17, 2025 | Featured Articles
I once represented a man charged with first-degree murder. At the preliminary hearing, the courtroom was filled with the family and friends of the victim. When my client was led out of the holding cell, the officer who brought him out leaned over and whispered...

Netanyahu Indicted For Crimes Against Humanity
by Rep. John J. Duncan Jr. | Dec 4, 2024 | Featured Articles
Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was indicted by the International Criminal Court on November 21 for war crimes and crimes against humanity. The U.S. is not a member of this court, and I don’t think it should be because it would not allow jury trials for some...
Some Of Our Leaders Are Putting Other Countries First

A 2003 Newsletter Still Accurate Today
by Rep. John J. Duncan Jr. | Aug 16, 2024 | Featured Articles
Almost every week, even now, someone will say to me, “I really miss your newsletter.” I am very grateful for those comments because I tried very hard to put out very detailed Washington Reports. Most members of Congress did not publish newsletters and the ones who did...
Media Now Embarrassed For Covering Up Biden’s Weakness
by Rep. John J. Duncan Jr. | Jul 17, 2024 | Featured Articles
It is both a little bit funny and a little bit sad, even a little pathetic, when a very old man tries to show he is as strong and active as a much younger man. President Biden often tries to carry his arms and take a couple of quick steps when he comes on stage to...
A Terribly Lopsided, Very Cruel War Continues

by Rep. John J. Duncan Jr. | Mar 6, 2024 | Featured Articles

U.S. Senate Votes To Send More Billions Down Ukrainian Rathole
by Rep. John J. Duncan Jr. | Feb 28, 2024 | Congress Alert
The U.S. Senate passed a major foreign aid bill recently by a vote of 70-29. This bill will require spending $95.3 billion that we do not have. We have a national debt that is approaching $35 trillion, a figure so huge that no one can humanly comprehend how much that...
