Confessions of a Conservative Atheist
The world’s only one man media empire
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
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
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…
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
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
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 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
When Trump first entered office in 2017, he was a political neophyte, but his challenge was even starker with seemingly no awareness that a resistance in the very body he was supposed to lead would soon be actively plotting against him. By now, everyone knows that President-elect Donald Trump is only the second Chief Executive… Continue reading Trump in Paris and a presidential transition unlike any other
After blithely accepting an obvious lie with no skepticism at all, even those who are now critical of the President focus their fire primarily on Donald Trump, fearing he may use the same power exactly as he promised on the campaign trail. Personally, I can’t really blame President Joe Biden for pardoning his son Hunter. … Continue reading Hunter’s pardon, pardon power generally, the media’s stupidity, lies, excuses, and penchant for blaming everything on Donald Trump, revisited
For almost a decade now, the mainstream media has widely claimed or at least suggested that once and future President Donald Trump was unelectable for an ever changing variety of reasons, ranging from his lack of appeal and the legal onslaught against him. They were wrong and in many cases, they lied. I can’t be… Continue reading Will progressives ever tire of a media that lies to them repeatedly and treats them like morons?
