Confessions of a Conservative Atheist
The world’s only one man media empire
As President Trump proceeds with his tariff policy and an appeals court prepares a ruling on whether that policy is lawful in the first place, some are claiming that tariffs fundamentally violate various conservative economic and Constitutional principles. As President Donald Trump proceeds with phase two of his tariff policy and an appeals court prepares… Continue reading Trump, tariffs, and my conservative principles
Contrary to the Court’s seeming belief, the legislature isn’t a powerless body getting beaten bloody by the Executive and in need of a life-saving intervention. If Congress objected to the President’s use of the tariff power, they don’t need to rely on the Courts to enforce their will. They could simply curtail it, revoke… Continue reading Congress, the Courts, and the if you choose not to decide principle
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
The Butterfly Effect encapsulates how small changes in variables lead to big changes in outcome. History is the Butterfly Effect written into human affairs, but it is even harder to untangle than math or physics. Who’d have believed a once and future President making an announcement after coming down a golden escalator would lead to… Continue reading Donald Trump and the greatest, most improbable political story ever told
Why would any rational human being planning a political campaign believe people outside the Democrat bubble are feeling anything resembling joy? This is joy as some kind of mass delusion or projection, a mind virus rather than a serious political movement. Previously, I have opined that describing political matters as joyous or infused with joy… Continue reading This new “politics of joy” is extremely weird
It’s common for political prognosticators, pundits, and amateurs like myself to rely on historical analogs to explain current events and provide some insight into how the future might unfold, but here, after a sitting President has withdrawn himself as candidate a full month after the primary process has been completed, we have none, because nothing… Continue reading Democrats are officially the party of chaos and contempt for democracy
Yes, it’s been a good week for conservatives, one of the best I can remember since Trump was elected in 2016, and we have much to celebrate tomorrow. We should not, however, gloat too much or get too cocky. Teddy Roosevelt’s political kaleidoscope changes fast, in ways we cannot possibly predict. At the risk of… Continue reading This Fourth of July, the sound you hear might be progressive heads exploding instead of fireworks
Every four years, political prognosticators bleed an ocean of digital ink in the lead up to the election cycle’s much ballyhooed presidential debates, only to tell us afterwards that none of it mattered in any event, nor do such things usually matter. Will this time be different? Every four years, political prognosticators bleed an ocean… Continue reading Is the endless blather about the big debate between Biden and Trump a classic much ado about nothing?
The experts shouldn’t be surprised that inflation doesn’t fall in a straight line in a relatively short period as they’ve been claiming. The historical record over the past 800 years is clear: Inflation can take decades, as in tens of years, to revert to the norm. Wall Street was stunned last week because inflation remains… Continue reading About that “stubbornly high” inflation
What are the odds that a man who regularly slurs his words and whose ability to stand trial was questioned by his own Justice Department doesn’t lash out and create a potential viral spectacle after being repeatedly confronted by members of his own party in outright rebellion? Last week, President Biden held a glitzy fundraiser… Continue reading Pro-Palestinian protestors are the real story of “Genocide Joe’s” Presidential Campaign so far
