WILSON: Corporate crime fraud by healthcare companies and banks

By George Wilson, contributing columnist | From time to time you hear Republican office holders and seekers speak in generalities about excessive government regulations.

Recently, I have been keeping track on some of these corporate transgressions and will do so in the future.

WILSON: Can voters see through smokescreen of campaign for president?

By George Wilson, contributing columnist | The Dallas Morning News broke with more than 75 years of tradition to endorse a Democrat for president, choosing Hillary Clinton over Donald Trump.

The Dallas Morning News’ editorial page is very, very conservative. It hasn’t endorsed a Democrat for president since Franklin Delano Roosevelt in 1940. But a recent editorial went on to savage Trump:

Look for this to continue in the days ahead with talk radio, Fox news and “Trump tweets.”
