The world’s only one man media empire
Amid plunging poll numbers, progressives are abandoning the President and the President himself is lashing out. It’s easy to blame this on the myriad crises facing the country, but the real reason is that Biden himself has been on every side of every issue and no one knows who he really is. President Biden’s sinking… Continue reading Nobody likes Biden because nobody knows who he really is
After a Google engineer declares the company’s latest creation is a conscious and sentient machine, The Washington Post claims the Turing Test for Artificial Intelligence is broken, measuring merely deception. Both are incorrect in different ways as Turing’s genius remains applicable and relevant. Last month, The Washington Post proclaimed that Google’s latest natural language software,… Continue reading No, Google’s LaMDA isn’t sentient and didn’t pass the Turing Test
The legendary director’s first great film is a dizzying blend of genres driven by a middle-aged man’s sexual fascination with a teenager. Told in a more straightforward style than much of his later work, the story beneath the surface is one of cultural decline, where villain and victim become increasingly hard to define in an… Continue reading Stanley Kubrick’s Lolita and the collapse of Western Culture
The progressive movement is in turmoil after a string of Supreme Court decisions put power back in the hands of the legislature and protected rights enshrined in the Constitution. The sort of things we used to call democracy with a Big-D, but those old rules no longer apply and now democracy means whatever they claim… Continue reading This Fourth of July, progressives have no idea what democracy is except as a means to get what they want
“Bombshell” testimony that promptly falls apart followed by “legal” analysis that the walls are closing in and President Trump is certain to be charged with some unspeakable crime, stop me if you’ve heard it all before. Regardless, another tired sequel aired just this week in Congress with the same tired stories, only the names have… Continue reading All the Never-Trumpers: We’ve seen this movie many times and it always ends the same
Travelers are bracing for another rough holiday weekend of delayed and canceled flights. Cancellation rates are about four times pre-pandemic levels with many travelers stranded for days. This cannot continue much longer as there’s no point in traveling if your arrival can only be predicted in days instead of hours. People love to travel. Almost… Continue reading The airline industry can’t take much more of this without permanent damage
Progressives take increasingly aggressive aim at the Supreme Court, branding it “illegitimate,” and recommending everything from expanding the number of Justices to ignoring their rulings entirely, but are any of their proposed schemes workable in the real world and what is the best way to proceed when the Court goes astray from your perspective? In… Continue reading What is the proper remedy for an “illegitimate” Supreme Court?
Whatever your opinion on the former President, it’s almost impossible to imagine rulings this momentous before he announced his candidacy seven years ago this month. There was a time before Trump. There is a time after Trump. The ramifications, both good and bad, still remain to be fully seen. Last week, the Supreme Court rocked… Continue reading Love him or hate him, Trump delivered the two most conservative Supreme Court decisions in a generation on back to back days
In principle, a holiday dedicated to honoring America’s long march to freedom is an unequivocally good thing, but in practice progressives and Democrat lawmakers twist it for their present political purposes, haranguing the country and proposing radical policies. At the risk of sounding somewhat retrograde and out of step with the times, I have mixed… Continue reading Juneteenth: The good, the bad, and the ugly
The media has suddenly discovered that President Biden is a rapidly fading old man and some Democrats are claiming he shouldn’t run again in 2024. Of course, Biden’s many problems were evident long before he got into office. Where were they then? Nobody should be surprised that Joe Biden makes an awful President. He’d been… Continue reading Biden supporters should spare us the buyer’s remorse
