By almost any definition, democracies are based on the government implementing the will of the people as expressed in elections, but the people have spoken and suddenly, that will must be denied by any means necessary. In the history of American politics, few things were more clear than President Donald Trump’s pledge to conduct mass… Continue reading Democrats against democracy

Violence is rarely a good strategy, but it’s even worse when facing President Trump
While politics ain’t beanbag as they say, if you are going to go so hardcore that you demand blood and insist people get shot for the cause, you better be sure it’s going to work. Earlier this week, I opined that the Democrat’s political strategy was to foment violence and it was the only leverage… Continue reading Violence is rarely a good strategy, but it’s even worse when facing President Trump
Violence is the Democrat strategy and their only hope for leverage
Last summer, Democrats called for blood and began training “warriors” to resist ICE. Last week, there was yet another tragic instance of actual blood, blood that was immediately seized upon as leverage to enact their preferred policy of ending deportations. In our system of government, the minority party generally seeks leverage to influence events. Lacking… Continue reading Violence is the Democrat strategy and their only hope for leverage
The Monroe Doctrine is more important than ever, disavowing it in 2013 was a tragic mistake
Our adversaries have only gotten more emboldened since Senator John Kerry declared the doctrine dead, making it difficult to see how announcing the United States would no longer oppose foreign meddling in Latin America didn’t encourage them to meddle even more. On December 2, 1823, President James Monroe, only the fifth person to occupy the… Continue reading The Monroe Doctrine is more important than ever, disavowing it in 2013 was a tragic mistake
Trump, the affordability scam, and the truth that we buy too much junk
Progressives ignored high prices for years, mocked those who worried about inflation, and for decades have waged a war on consumerism, but suddenly, we’re supposed to believe the American Dream is measured in cheap plastic dolls. Over the past several weeks, President Donald Trump has been heavily criticized from the left and some on the… Continue reading Trump, the affordability scam, and the truth that we buy too much junk
Reminder: The Constitution doesn’t actually mention tariffs and the Supreme Court ruled in 1928 that the power can be delegated to the President
Rather than looking at the Constitution, the history, the law, and the facts, many automatically assume President Trump will not prevail at the Supreme Court or anything else, but what else is new? Last week, Supreme Court pundits and watchers were convinced the Justices were set to overturn President Trump’s global tariff policy because several… Continue reading Reminder: The Constitution doesn’t actually mention tariffs and the Supreme Court ruled in 1928 that the power can be delegated to the President
No, endless subsidies do not make healthcare or anything else more affordable
If the government were to subsidize Ferraris for a year, that doesn’t mean the cost of a Ferrari will go up when the subsidies expire. It means the amount of money given to you to purchase a Ferrari went down. If there is a healthcare deal to be had, it cannot simply be to expand… Continue reading No, endless subsidies do not make healthcare or anything else more affordable
Is it time to nuke the filibuster from orbit and let partisan politics sort it out?
Should a minority party be able to shutter the government and by their own admission, cause widespread suffering because of a tool some have claimed is a relic of slavery, especially when the nature of that tool has changed dramatically? Generally speaking, I am a fan of the filibuster. While the mainstream media and President… Continue reading Is it time to nuke the filibuster from orbit and let partisan politics sort it out?
No, the world didn’t begin on January 20 when President Trump retook office
We have two choices when the Democrats and the media assert President Donald Trump’s actions are unprecedented in anything other than the pace, volume, and effectiveness. Either they truly believe the world began on January 20, 2025, or they think you are stupid enough to believe so yourself. To hear Democrats, progressives, and their allies… Continue reading No, the world didn’t begin on January 20 when President Trump retook office
Progressives’ delusions are increasingly at odds with voters’ reality
Partisans can and will spin any argument they want, but the question is which ones the people in the middle actually respond to and the Republicans currently lead Democrats on the vast majority of issues. While it has long been said conservatives and progressives live in two different worlds, the real question is which reality… Continue reading Progressives’ delusions are increasingly at odds with voters’ reality
