There’s an old expression that one man’s terrorist is another’s freedom fighter, but today, we might update it to one man’s defender of democracy is another’s fascist. There’s an old expression that one man’s terrorist is another’s freedom fighter, but today, especially in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s shocking killing last week, we might update… Continue reading Inside every American is a fascist waiting to come out

Trump’s war on the cartels and a tragic lesson from Biden’s failure in Afghanistan
When a strike is successful, arguments about laws, rights, or whatever will be far from persuasive, but these same laws, rights, or whatever exist to determine when someone is guilty of a crime. Four years ago, the military botched a strike on suspected terrorists in Afghanistan and ended up killing ten innocent people. Last week,… Continue reading Trump’s war on the cartels and a tragic lesson from Biden’s failure in Afghanistan
Trump and some hard truths about the piss poor jobs report
Though the President himself warned there would be short term disruption, it doesn’t matter who or what is to blame. It could be tariffs, it could be Trump, it could be that the job fairy is taking a vacation, or a mass delusion that the economy is worse than it is, numbers like this can’t… Continue reading Trump and some hard truths about the piss poor jobs report
You need to be living in a simulation to believe Trump is sick or suddenly died while insisting for years Biden was fit as the proverbial fiddle
How else can you explain last weekend’s progressive delusion that President Trump suddenly died and the truth was being hidden for some unexplained, yet undoubtedly nefarious reason while his predecessor President Biden was healthy as the proverbial horse? While I have never been a fan of so-called scientific theories that claim we are living in… Continue reading You need to be living in a simulation to believe Trump is sick or suddenly died while insisting for years Biden was fit as the proverbial fiddle
Trump, the Bolton raid, and my conservative principles
The real question is whether justice has indeed been blind to the point where these and potentially other actions are fundamentally altering its nature, or has justice been transformed into the raw exercise of power rather than the pursuit of truth and fairness. Last week, critics of President Trump and his supporters on both the… Continue reading Trump, the Bolton raid, and my conservative principles
The self-proclaimed defenders of democracy aren’t defending anything close to what most people consider American democracy
Surely, any pretension of protecting democracy was fatally undermined by a call to rewrite the entire Constitution and related musings on why the military leadership hasn’t done more to undermine the Commander in Chief. Anyone who thinks irony is dead should consider the current progressive positions on the nature of democracy. On one hand, they… Continue reading The self-proclaimed defenders of democracy aren’t defending anything close to what most people consider American democracy
Epstein, redistricting, and what connects two issues voters don’t really care about
They call the summer the silly season for a reason, but perhaps this particular summer is sillier than others as politicians, the media, and political junkies on social media obsess over two very different issues while the American people enjoy their barbecues and vacations. Over the past month, a man who died in 2019 has… Continue reading Epstein, redistricting, and what connects two issues voters don’t really care about
Reminder: Democrats should love tariffs because they have wanted to raise taxes for years
While we might forgive politicians for a little politicking, it’s more than a little ironic for Democrats to abandon a core tenet of their philosophy and pretend higher taxes haven’t been a long term goal. On December 1, 2010, Alan Simpson and Erskine Bowles concluded President Barack Obama’s National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform… Continue reading Reminder: Democrats should love tariffs because they have wanted to raise taxes for years
The progressive war on fun and those who are having it
From endless protests and outrage to personal crying and venting on social media, progressives aren’t having any fun in this political climate, as in so long as President Trump remains in office, and they don’t want you to do so either. It’s no secret that progressives are miserable, veering from outrage to depression with a… Continue reading The progressive war on fun and those who are having it
No, I don’t need some scold’s permission to love boobs and other recent misadventures in thought control, media, and advertising
When was the last time you saw an ad for an automobile featuring a dirty, dinged up car parked in some equally trash strewn and crowded garage, even though that’s what happens to the great majority of cars in the real world? Last week, I noted that the recent controversy over Sydney Sweeney’s appearance in… Continue reading No, I don’t need some scold’s permission to love boobs and other recent misadventures in thought control, media, and advertising
