The world’s only one man media empire
Previously, Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanagh’s hearings in September 2018 were a high, or perhaps, I should say, low water mark in this regard, but we have to give the good Senators credit for outdoing themselves at least. Over the past several decades, Senate confirmation hearings have transformed from staid, boring, if-not-banal formalities into a… Continue reading Advise and consent or rave and rant? There was no decency or sanity to be had at the Senate’s confirmation hearings
Whether you love him or hate him, President Trump is far more than a politician, having become a cultural figure that represents perhaps better than anyone else the key issues of our time, and his retaking the Presidency marks a clear before and after. When President Joe Biden was set to take office in 2021,… Continue reading Washington will never be the same…
We should condemn those who would make sport of anyone’s suffering for any reason, but in a world where everything is political, there is nothing wrong with stating your opinion on what led to the destruction and what could have done better once it was unleashed. The fires in Los Angeles have prompted a range… Continue reading The LA fires and the reality that not all politics is bad, though not all arguments are equal
If it was up to me, health insurance companies would not continue to exist in their current form, but blaming them for all our healthcare woes is like blaming the doctor for giving you a bad diagnosis. Sometimes, the bearer of bad news is just the bearer of bad news. The cold blooded killing of… Continue reading Americans on both sides remain deeply confused about healthcare
The silly season ended yesterday, but the only way she can win is to hope it continues through the election. Those hailing her meteoric ascension should do well to remember that meteors don’t rise. They fall to Earth, either disappearing in a flash in the atmosphere or causing havoc down below. Perhaps the most stunning… Continue reading Everyone knows Vice President Kamala Harris is awful, just like President Joe Biden before her
Sherry won’t abandon her mother, and the speaker is either stuck with the three of them jammed into the same small car, or he can move on, hoping to catch the eye of one of those “girls melting on the beach,” but the Vice President doesn’t have that option when it comes to casting off… Continue reading Biden’s “Sherry Darling” moment at the DNC because Governor Walz is such a Springsteen fan
Everyone knows Vice President Harris is awful. It’s why talk about whether President Biden should withdraw from the race included an aside about what to do with her. Is it possible she could be passed over somehow? Instead, she had to be completely remade, downright deified, the same way Biden was before her. As I… Continue reading The batshit crazy coronation of Kamala Harris is history repeating itself as farce
The new Republican Party seeks to shift the balance of our interests shifts from abstract American ideals to the practical impact on every day Americans, America as a country like any other, with her own interests, rather than as some easily manipulated metaphor for democracy or human progress. The same way we can rarely tell… Continue reading JD Vance and the Republicans’ ideological revolution
President Clinton isn’t quite a Republican by today’s standards, but he’s much closer to one than the current Democrat Party, and if Democrats still held his positions, or anything like them, there would be broad bipartisan support for any number of major reforms that would benefit the entire country. In yet another common refrain, the… Continue reading Bill Clinton and who the radicals really are
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?
