Superman and how much Hollywood truly hates us
While many of us are wondering when Superman became an immigrant, given that he’s a fictional alien from another planet with almost godlike powers and is not usually associated with either border policy or migrant workers, Hollywood once again reveals that they have nothing but contempt for half the country or more. Once upon a… Continue reading Superman and how much Hollywood truly hates us
A Big, Beautiful Peace Deal in the Middle East?
While it remains to be seen if a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, Syria joining the Abraham Accords, and even a group of sheikhs in the West Bank, will come to fruition, clearly something has changed radically in the region over the past six months and just as clearly, that something is President Trump. Shortly… Continue reading A Big, Beautiful Peace Deal in the Middle East?
The strike on Iran, the importance of historical context, and the use of overwhelming force
We have reason to be concerned about the risks of unintended consequences, but we shouldn’t ignore the historical context either, pretending like most Democrats and much of the mainstream media that this conflict somehow sprung into existence with Israel’s air campaign barely ten days ago. There is no doubt that President Donald Trump’s decision to… Continue reading The strike on Iran, the importance of historical context, and the use of overwhelming force
Trump’s electoral triumph is even more astounding than previously thought, or so says the New York Times
For years, the media has assumed that demography is destiny, that a more diversified country would lead to an ascendant Democrat Party while reducing Republicans to an ineffectual rump. President Trump has proven them completely, catastrophically wrong, doing what they would have said was impossible. After President Donald Trump’s stunning victory last year, I described… Continue reading Trump’s electoral triumph is even more astounding than previously thought, or so says the New York Times
Trump triumphs in the Middle East, completely upending decades of failed foreign policy and securing billions in new deals
“In recent years, far too many American presidents have been afflicted with the notion that it’s our job to look into the souls of foreign leaders and use US policy to dispense justice for their sins…I believe it is God’s job to sit in judgment; my job, to defend America and to promote the fundamental… Continue reading Trump triumphs in the Middle East, completely upending decades of failed foreign policy and securing billions in new deals
Why Democrats and progressives can’t be taken seriously under any circumstances
The great majority of what Democrats claim today, the issues they suddenly consider of the utmost importance, were either ignored or outright lied about throughout recent history beginning with the mental capabilities of President Biden himself, what we might consider the original sin from which all loss of credibility flows. While the opposition party opposes… Continue reading Why Democrats and progressives can’t be taken seriously under any circumstances
Tariffs, our selective amnesia, and the total failure of American imagination
Those who are convinced we cannot make things in America anymore have conveniently forgotten the recent history of the pandemic, where we invented a new vaccine, produced hundreds of millions of doses along with hundreds of thousands of ventilators and millions of other medical devices in a few months. There are plenty of reasons… Continue reading Tariffs, our selective amnesia, and the total failure of American imagination
Reminder: President Obama cut spending over 4% in 2012 and 2013, but the world didn’t end, despite claims we were heading over the cliff without brakes
While you wouldn’t know it from the collective outrage visited upon us daily, between 2011 and 2013, total federal spending fell from $3.6 trillion to $3.45 trillion, but then as now, many predicted disasters that simply didn’t happen. As is so often the case in our increasingly absurdist times, the conventional wisdom holds that all… Continue reading Reminder: President Obama cut spending over 4% in 2012 and 2013, but the world didn’t end, despite claims we were heading over the cliff without brakes
