JD Vance, Cat Ladies, and an Anatomy of a Fake Scandal

Everyone had a “cat lady” on their block as a child.  The house you crept past for fear of getting yelled at for no reason, the one you’d dread should a stray ball land on her lawn, the door you ran from should it open.  No one, and I mean no one wanted that person… Continue reading JD Vance, Cat Ladies, and an Anatomy of a Fake Scandal

Progressives want less people to save the planet

Celebrating the declining birthrate as some of have done will not save the planet. It will lead to less human fulfillment, less innovation, a lower standard of living, more loneliness, and a world that most would not want to live in. For years, if not decades, conservatives have suspected that progressives simply don’t like people. … Continue reading Progressives want less people to save the planet

Israel: The stain of abstaining at the UN pleases no one

If the President thinks this is a genocide, say it and demand a change in course.  If he thinks it’s a just war, but he has a better idea how to fight it, say it. Voting present simply isn’t an option anymore. Earlier this week, the United Nations Security Council passed a resolution calling for… Continue reading Israel: The stain of abstaining at the UN pleases no one

Why is anyone surprised the UN’s Palestinian Relief Agency is crawling with terrorists and President Biden is doing nothing about it?

The UNRWA has a long history of flirting with if not outright supporting terrorism, which is one of the reasons former President Trump cut off funding in 2018. Otherwise, the UN itself was chartered primarily to allow Soviet Russia to influence world affairs, making it a cesspool in 1945 and an even worse cesspool today. Last… Continue reading Why is anyone surprised the UN’s Palestinian Relief Agency is crawling with terrorists and President Biden is doing nothing about it?

Israel: Ceasefires, humanitarian pauses, and related absurdities including when President Biden will be asked to condemn his own party

The New York Times effectively calls for Hamas to apologize on national TV, world governmental bodies have no interest in justice and no means to deal with Hamas, the Biden Administration wants to pause the fighting to resupply the enemy, and no one in the mainstream media wants to talk about the antisemitism rampant in… Continue reading Israel: Ceasefires, humanitarian pauses, and related absurdities including when President Biden will be asked to condemn his own party

Israel: Get ready for the progressive backlash to go mainstream

The over/under could be as little as a week, when all our claims of unity with Israel go up in the smoke.  Whatever President Biden may say today, he hasn’t the stomach to oppose key members of his party, his movement, and a global government apparatus that has long ago decided Israel is to blame. … Continue reading Israel: Get ready for the progressive backlash to go mainstream

I am woman, watch me be demeaned and ultimately erased

A former collegiate athlete speaking out about her experience competing with biological men is demeaned and barricaded in a bathroom while female-specific brands shower a trans woman who acts like a pixie with endorsements.  Suddenly, it seems like women no longer fit into the cultural equation. “Yeah, you fucking trans-phobic bitch,” an unknown woman screamed… Continue reading I am woman, watch me be demeaned and ultimately erased

Democracy has no meaning anymore

The legal, lawful, and democratic expulsion of two lawmakers for willingly disrupting the proceedings of every other lawmaker in the Tennessee House Chamber can only be transformed into a threat to democracy if the word itself has no meaning anymore. “We called for you all to ban assault weapons, and you respond with an assault… Continue reading Democracy has no meaning anymore

Donald Trump and the ever present specter of political violence

The former President earned the ire of both progressives and moderate conservatives for stating the obvious that his indictment on seven-year old charges would cause “potential death & destruction,” but pointing out the truth should never be out of bounds, nor has it ever been in our history. Last week, former President Donald Trump earned… Continue reading Donald Trump and the ever present specter of political violence

Twitter, Elon Musk, and the 2022 technology crash

Twitter’s pending collapse is greatly exaggerated even after a large number of staff members quit, but the social media platform is not alone in the chaos plaguing Silicon Valley.  Facebook, Amazon, and others are all experiencing massive layoffs, crumbling stock prices, and shrinking or non-existent profits.  The progressive gravy train is rapidly coming to an… Continue reading Twitter, Elon Musk, and the 2022 technology crash
