The world’s only one man media empire
Democrats and the mainstream media repeatedly warn that democracy itself is in peril, under attacks not seen since the Civil War, while simultaneously pushing to demolish key pillars of our system of government included but not limited to the filibuster, the Electoral College, and the composition of the Supreme Court. It’s almost like democracy means… Continue reading One year after January 6, the protection of democracy is all the rage, but what sort of democracy do Democrats have in mind?
Coronavirus cases have spiked to the highest levels ever seen, but quarantine and testing requirements have been loosened, and future guidance now has to balance the need for a functioning economy, society, and what people in general will tolerate. Once upon a time, people that said the same were accused of having blood on their… Continue reading President Biden has completely failed to shut down the virus, yet some in the media have decided that’s a good thing as the medical establishment completely rewrites the rules for political reasons
We must reject the rampant exercise of never before used authority in the name of public safety. The executive doesn’t have the power to mandate whatever it wants, much less arrest and imprison people for failing to comply with their latest whims. It’s time to demand legislatures return to voting on any new executive authority… Continue reading In 2022, let the free market and elected legislatures take the lead in addressing the pandemic
Vaccine mandates and the fight for freedom, Critical Race Theory, transgender sports, the continuing crime wave, Russia, China, and inflation all made headlines this year, but are likely to continue as hot topics with long reaching consequences into 2022 and beyond. No one knows the future, but each of these topics might change the world.… Continue reading 2022: Five things to watch for next year
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
