The world’s only one man media empire
President Biden’s signature progressive legislation fails to attract the 50 votes required for passage in the Senate after months of negotiations. Progressives are furious, but they should’ve seen this coming all along when the bill was built on gimmicks and cheap accounting tricks with no central message or purpose. Incredibly, it seems they are only… Continue reading Build Back Better bites the dust, for now at least
Vox calls for a “break” from capitalism to focus on mental health issues along with a complete restructuring of work in general, presuming we’d all be better off sitting at home complaining about our plight. Fortunately, a progressive philosopher still recognizes the dignity of work and believes it could be the answer to Democrat struggles… Continue reading It’s official: Some progressives don’t think we should actually work for a living, fortunately they’re counterbalanced by others who still believe in the dignity of a day’s pay
Democrats, the mainstream media, and even some Republicans remain obsessed with the January 6 riots, even as their fevered fantasies of a coordinated, armed insurrection have been revealed as completely false. They’re now resorting to doctoring text messages and lying about it to keep the story alive, desperate to go after Trump one more time… Continue reading Yes, conservatives almost universally condemned the January 6th riots, despite lies to the contrary
Mr. Smollett lied to the police and fanned the simmering flames of racial resentment, but many progressives think he’s not to blame. Instead, it’s the justice system itself or perhaps local politics in Cook County, anything but the man who perpetrated the crime. Last week, Jussie Smollet was convicted by a jury of his peers… Continue reading Jussie Smollett: Reactions reveal a warped vision of social justice writ large
As Russian troops mass on the Ukrainian border in advance of an expected invasion next year, President Biden believes economic sanctions alone can deter the threat, but Europe is so heavily dependent on Russian oil it’s difficult to see how that would be effective. In the meantime, China is threatening Taiwan and strengthening ties to… Continue reading The Russia problem is really a China problem, and there is no easy fix after decades of failure
A brand new kind of smash and grab robberies sweeps California and elsewhere while violent crime is on the rise across almost the entire country, resulting in thousands of more deaths than less than two years ago, but some progressives deny it’s even happening, pushing ahead with a plan to empty federal prisons, and others… Continue reading Progressives remain in deep denial about the current crime wave
The passing of a political giant is a great time for introspection. The most important question facing America today is why Democrats have abandoned virtually every single position they held just 25 years ago when Bob Dole ran for the Presidency against William Jefferson Clinton. Today, the would hate Clinton for the middle name alone.… Continue reading Remembering Bob Dole and the halcyon days when Democrats were still sane
A reportedly mild strain of the virus first reported in South Africa prompts a press conference over a single case in the US, a full on media freak out including recommendations for a near-perpetual virus traffic light warning system, and another round of justifications for vaccine mandates that have already been struck down by the… Continue reading Omicron: The new coronavirus strain brings out the crazy
Controversy is already swirling around a Supreme Court that could overturn Roe v. Wade and make abortion a state by state issue. The decision might hinge on the esoteric legal terms, holdings and dictum. Conceivably, there is a middle way where abortion is a right that can be regulated by the states, if only we… Continue reading Abortion: Can the Supreme Court find a middle way on the always controversial issue?
Twitter’s new CEO isn’t concerned about free speech and plans to restrict content sharing, Facebook is clamoring for government regulation in the name of public safety, and there are increasing calls to break up Big Tech, but is any of this necessary when illegal activity is already illegal? Otherwise, our focus should be the First… Continue reading A common sense, conservative approach to social media regulation rooted in the First Amendment
