Happy New Year!

One year ago, we wrote that “This year, 2024, will be an eventful one. There can be no about that. While we have no special insights into what will happen, by the end of this year we will know whether there’s hope for the country or whether we decided to go headfirst into the abyss. The stakes are that great.”

Well, now we know.

As we start 2025, there is hope — great hope — for this country. The defeat of Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, lawfare, corporate media, and the rest of the tyrannical left was monumental.

But now the real work begins. The pull of socialism and the desire of tyrants to control our lives remains. The left has been wounded, but not defeated.

We will, with your support, continue to do our part to preserve the blessings of liberty. We will use our journalistic skills and our unwavering commitment to free markets and limited government to dismantle the false claims and outright lies of the left, and showcase the benefits of a free society.

Get ready!

About Issues & Insights

Issues & Insights is run by seasoned journalists who were behind the Pulitzer Prize-winning IBD Editorials page (before it was summarily shut down). Our goal then and now is to bring our decades of combined journalism experience to help readers understand the top issues of the day. I&I is a completely independent operation, beholden to none, but committed to providing cogent, rational, data-driven, fact-based commentary that the nation so desperately needs.
