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.

Omicron: The new coronavirus strain brings out the crazy
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
Abortion: Can the Supreme Court find a middle way on the always controversial issue?
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?
A common sense, conservative approach to social media regulation rooted in the First Amendment
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
The Ahmaud Arbery verdict reveals the genius of American justice and the continued insanity of progressives
Two different trials, two claims of self-defense, and two completely different verdicts demonstrate how the jury system works in America, combining clear legal standards, the right of the accused to mount a defense, and a decision by a jury of their peers. Justice in America isn’t nearly as rare as progressives think... Last Wednesday, three… Continue reading The Ahmaud Arbery verdict reveals the genius of American justice and the continued insanity of progressives
Progressives take aim at “white reasoning,” but its enshrinement in our justice system is something we should all be thankful for
The howls of outrage from progressives after the Rittenhouse verdict are rapidly transforming into calls to dismantle the bedrock of the judicial system, from the instructions to juries to the nature of self-defense. Meanwhile, 80 thugs in ski masks rob malls in San Francisco, and the experts object to calling it “looting.” “A belief may… Continue reading Progressives take aim at “white reasoning,” but its enshrinement in our justice system is something we should all be thankful for
Rittenhouse reactions and the left’s new found right to retreat
An acquittal in a local case involving exclusively white males is cited as proof of the country’s inherent white supremacy and the need to completely abolish our current system of government. The left also discovers a new right of retreat: If you are attacked, you must first try to escape to their satisfaction prior to… Continue reading Rittenhouse reactions and the left’s new found right to retreat
The Biden Administration doesn’t care what you think, and they don’t even try to hide it anymore
From inflation to the border with the pandemic and the fate of Americans held overseas in between, President Biden’s words and actions make clear he doesn’t really care what you think or the challenges you are facing. The radical progressive agenda is paramount no matter what, but fortunately Americans are starting to notice. Earlier this… Continue reading The Biden Administration doesn’t care what you think, and they don’t even try to hide it anymore
Biden’s approval rating sucks for obvious reasons that aren’t likely to change
The pandemic continues and unexpected new crises have cropped up, from halfway around the world, to the border, even into your dining room. There’s nothing normal about America less than a year into the Biden presidency, and almost nothing in the entire world has changed for the better. It’s a miracle Biden’s approval ratings aren’t… Continue reading Biden’s approval rating sucks for obvious reasons that aren’t likely to change
Infrastructure: Key provisions and mandates that could yield poisonous fruit in the future
There’s a pilot program to track every mile and tax you for the privilege, a mandate to detect drunk driving and presumably stop your car, perhaps lock you up, a billion for “racist” infrastructure and other equity carve outs. This is infrastructure according to Congress and the President. There’s no vision, no plan, just dollars… Continue reading Infrastructure: Key provisions and mandates that could yield poisonous fruit in the future
