The Full Trump from Day One

Before the inauguration speech was even over, President Trump declared it was a new Golden Age in America, promised to take back the Panama Canal and reinvigorated the much maligned phrase, Manifest Destiny, this time applying it to our quest to conquer the stars, and he was just getting warmed up. Love him or hate… Continue reading The Full Trump from Day One

Washington will never be the same…

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…

If only Democrats had a time machine, they could go back and defeat President-elect Donald Trump or could they?

Between Trump’s sentencing, Biden claiming he could win the election, and the release of the Special Counsel report, it’s like we’re stuck in a time loop, repeating the same thing and expecting a difficult result, or progressives are hoping for a time machine to go back and replay events to generate a different result. As… Continue reading If only Democrats had a time machine, they could go back and defeat President-elect Donald Trump or could they?

The LA fires and the reality that not all politics is bad, though not all arguments are equal

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

Of course, Mark Zuckerberg caved to President Donald Trump, exactly as he should have

It appears the Facebook mega-billionaire has learned the lessons of John D. Rockefeller’s belligerent reaction to Teddy Roosevelt’s antitrust suit that ultimately dissolved Standard Oil. Teddy Roosevelt is generally considered the first American President to take on and reign in big business in America.  At the time, large corporations were organized into byzantine trusts, essentially… Continue reading Of course, Mark Zuckerberg caved to President Donald Trump, exactly as he should have

2024 could’ve been a hell of a lot worse, but don’t tell the media that…

When you consider the literal and figurative bullets the world dodged on the way to December 31, things could have been much, much worse, almost unimaginably so, but don’t tell our so-called betters that.  They are mired in misery and think you should be too.  Even in conservative circles, 2024 is getting a bad wrap,… Continue reading 2024 could’ve been a hell of a lot worse, but don’t tell the media that…

The H-1B visa debate and the three sides to every story principle

I was reminded of my grandmother over the past week, when an internecine debate bordering on a brawl broke out among supporters of President Donald Trump, despite being an essentially a minor issue concerning some 85,000 visas issued annually, where multiple things can be true simultaneously.   My grandmother used to say that there are… Continue reading The H-1B visa debate and the three sides to every story principle

The Elon Musk Factor shouldn’t be underestimated in Trump’s second term

There has never been a partnership like the world’s most powerful and world’s richest man seemingly attached at the hip, neither of whom can be intimidated by anyone, under any circumstances, and whom the establishment has absolutely no power or control over.   I’ll admit:  The sight of the world’s most powerful and world’s richest… Continue reading The Elon Musk Factor shouldn’t be underestimated in Trump’s second term

Trump’s victory has completely shifted the political and cultural landscape, making him more popular than ever

President Trump has an opportunity to deliver on his promises that he didn’t have in 2016.  The world is watching and more people than ever, from average Americans to world leaders and business tycoons, are rooting for him. If you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em.  The old expression appears to capture a willingness to embrace… Continue reading Trump’s victory has completely shifted the political and cultural landscape, making him more popular than ever

Progressives aren’t morally confused, they don’t have any morals at all any more beyond the pursuit of power

Progressives have been quick to proclaim a not guilty verdict after a man defended passengers on a crowded subway was a travesty of justice while praising the death of the UnitedHealthcare’s CEO, abandoning all pretenses of morals in the process. Earlier this week, CNN’s Scott Jennings held up a piece of paper on Aby Phillip’s… Continue reading Progressives aren’t morally confused, they don’t have any morals at all any more beyond the pursuit of power
