The world’s only one man media empire
Our failure in Afghanistan is the result of policy goals that could never be achieved and lies to cover up our failure to achieve them. Unfortunately, this pattern isn’t limited to the Middle East. It infects just about everything, from our response to coronavirus to climate change, we’re always planning to do the impossible, then… Continue reading Afghanistan: Lofty dreams and outright lies, the wreckage of neoconservatism and its lessons for our entire approach to government
Twenty years, four Presidents, thousands of lives, tens of thousands of injuries, and trillions of dollars later, the vaunted Afghan Army refuses to take the field and the entire country falls in barely a month. There’s no shortage of blame to go around when our entire strategy was based on a steady stream of lies...… Continue reading Afghanistan: Don’t look now, but we just lost another war on Biden’s watch
Apparently, the bipartisan effort is hostage to a secondary, entirely partisan effort, and changes to the partisan effort, even by the party pushing that same partisan effort, undermine the bipartisan one. Are you following? If you care about democratic norms, this is your moment... It was finally infrastructure week in Washington, DC when 19 clueless… Continue reading The Infrastructure Scam: Clueless Republicans and increasingly radical Democrats make for a toxic mix
The Emmy Winning Governor resigns over accusations of sexual harassment, but despite ranking second in the country in deaths and a scandal over nursing homes, is still lauded by President Biden and others, even as liberals start to rewrite history and claim they knew he was a creep all along. How the mighty have fallen: … Continue reading Cuomo: We hardly knew ye, except we did and that was more than enough
As government, universities, and private employers implement vaccine mandates and some municipalities require vaccines for entry to restaurants and gyms, it’s worth considering the applicable legal standards and how this would actually work in practice when some two thirds of minority groups will no longer be allowed to eat out. Is this the America you… Continue reading Mandates, passports, restaurant requirements, and more: Making life “extremely” difficult for the unvaccinated
President Biden extends the moratorium on evictions with the full knowledge he has exceeded his Constitutional authority. As Democrat politicians praise the move along with much of the media, whatever happened to all the concern about democratic norms and unchecked executive power? This is the exact crisis they warned about happening right before their eyes...… Continue reading Constitutional Crisis: Has the long awaited event finally arrived?
Vice President Kamala Harris releases a long awaited strategy to address the “root causes” of the surge on the border, but a closer look at the document and the complete lack of details reveals they don’t plan to do anything at all that hasn’t been tried for 50 years. Alas, it’s the same situation with… Continue reading The root cause canard on the border and elsewhere
Second quarter GDP numbers miss projections by as much as 30%, but Biden claims he’s getting America back on track. Meanwhile, back in the real world a challenging job market, epic inflation, and the end of a moratorium on evictions might be taking the bloom off this rose before it’s even picked. Last week, President… Continue reading Biden’s victory lap on the economy is about as convincing as his victory lap on coronavirus
What are the facts behind the uptick in cases, vaccination rates, and breakthrough infections for those already vaccinated? If you’ve been paying attention for the past 16 months, it probably won’t surprise you to learn we’re being lied to again, told an incomplete narrative for political purposes. Republican refusal to vaccinate against coronavirus is literally… Continue reading The mask mandate is back and Republicans are to blame, at least according to the mainstream media, the Biden Administration, and supposed health experts
CNN suddenly discovers that being President is hard and likely to get harder. Who knew? Unfortunately for Americans, President Biden is suffering from an array of largely self-inflicted wounds, from the border to international relations. The solution is simple: Govern how he promised on the campaign and stop pretending to be some radical progressive.… Continue reading Poor, poor, pitiful Biden?
