Budget uncertainty has become a familiar feeling in my young Army career. This year's government shutdown was my second, the first occurring in 2013, with 2011 a narrow miss.
Mark Corallo is the spokesman/crisis manager/fixer that Republicans call when the bullets are flying and the enemy is at the gate. He runs into the burning buildings and stays until the fires are out and the embers have all been doused.
President Trump holds a meeting on the impact of the tax reform bill at the White House in Washington on Jan. 31. Now we're firmly in the selling phase of the Republican tax plan, and President Trump's constant refrain is that the cuts are "the biggest in history." History doesn't quite support his claim.

In a 80-minute prime-time address, the Republican president sketched out an eventual path to citizenship for some 1.8 million undocumented immigrants, even as put a premium on border security and called for an end to family-based "chain" immigration for legal immigrants and the end of the "Visa lottery." In a new study , the economics and personal finance site WalletHub ran down the economic impact that immigrants have in all 50 states, providing a useful barometer on how new entrants to the country contribute to states' economies.
If your goal is to invest $1.5 trillion in the country's ailing roads, bridges, railways, airports, and water systems, pushing through $1.5 trillion in deficit-funded tax cuts is a funny way to do it. But not to worry, President Trump suggested in his State of the Union address Tuesday, because the money will magically appear.
Distracted by Donald Trump's disputatious style and flagrant violations of political norms, Democrats have consistently underestimated his political appeal. No way he could beat their candidate in 2016.
If history and current polling provide any indication, Democrats appear poised for considerable national gains in the November midterm elections. But overconfidence often breeds hubris, and their blundered effort to shut down the federal government to protect illegal immigrants signaled that Democrats suffer from no shortage of either.
In his Jan. 22 letter, Doug Nusbaum criticizes another letter writer for stating that Barack Obama's accomplishments were generally bad for our country. Mr. Nusbaum then tries to make the case for the opposite by giving some "so-called" facts.

Not only have his policies added over $8 trillion in value to the stock market - in year one of his administration - the economy is roaring and unemployment is at an all-time low.
President Trump is expected to order the release of a controversial secret House Intelligence Committee memo that has become a political lightning rod in the ongoing Russian election meddling probe. Last night, GOP members of the House Intelligence Committee voted over the objection of Democrats to release the classified memo, alleging the FBI and Justice Department misused surveillance laws to monitor a former Trump campaign aide.
But the bill succeeded at putting vulnerable Democrats on the record on that issue, which was one of the Republicans' goals. The GOP is defending its 51-49 majority in the midterm elections.
The news that President Trump sought to fire special counsel Robert Mueller has lent urgency to congressional efforts to pass legislation preventing Trump from ending Mueller's investigation by removing him. Trump's "denial" - "Fake news, folks, fake news" - was every bit as persuasive as his countless other denials of things that proved demonstrably true.
Tom Brady should have known when he included his family in the Facebook documentary that the media and trolls would have something disparaging to say about his picture-perfect life.
