The world’s only one man media empire
Believe it or not, the Constitution appears to demand that even a convicted murderer elected President must have their charges dismissed, otherwise the fate of the free world is in the hands of a single judge and twelve members of a jury that are necessarily subservient to the supreme law of the land. The American… Continue reading Trump’s sentencing and a lesson in how American democracy is supposed to work
Lying about the mental state of the President and failing to discharge duties related to that mental state are both conspiracies against the United States, punishable by law, but accountability beyond jettisoning the perpetrators into political oblivion will be hard to come by. Conservatives have long been convinced that President Joe Biden’s cognitive decline… Continue reading Don’t look now, but the year is ending with the biggest political scandal in the history and no one seems to care
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
After the counting is done and the music stops, you still have only one life to live, one country to live in, and one world to share with both those who agree and those who disagree.

I believe I’ve passed the ageOf consciousness and… Continue reading Today is a good day to remember your Billy Joel, for life goes on no matter who was wrong or right
Back in 2017, the establishment was able to convince themselves President Trump was a one-of-a-kind defect in American politics that they could correct somehow, but that illusion will be shattered should he win again. If former President Donald Trump prevails next week, his victory will result in a political contradiction of the highest possible order. … Continue reading The crazy contradictions of a Trump victory
The reason even Special Counsel Jack Smith acknowledged at least some of the former President’s actions were official is because elections are essentially political and it has been a democratic norm since the dawn of the Republic that political actions are not criminal. The Supreme Court, fortunately, seems to realize this and is likely to… Continue reading The media is shocked to discover that the Supreme Court cares about more than Donald Trump
A homeowner can’t sell their house because a squatter has moved in and is renting the place out on his own. Another couple purchases a house for $2 million, but can’t move in because a caretaker claims to have an agreement with a dead man. Meanwhile, the state plans to seize President Trump’s properties simply… Continue reading Surprise, you don’t own your home or business in New York at least
The budget is an out of control beast, but this isn’t the first time elevated spending combined with massive inflation to threaten the economy. The Constitution gives the President the tools today as it did in the 1920s. All that’s missing is the will to do it the Coolidge way, cutting everywhere you can and… Continue reading Taming the budget the Calvin Coolidge way
We cannot say for sure if he is enraged, defiant, determined, or some combination of all three and more, but we can say that this is not a man who is going to walk quietly into obscurity, either in prison or otherwise, and likely with good reason given the underlying issues at play. Last week,… Continue reading Trump, the mugshot seen around the world, and progressive blather about the rule of law
The legal, lawful, and democratic expulsion of two lawmakers for willingly disrupting the proceedings of every other lawmaker in the Tennessee House Chamber can only be transformed into a threat to democracy if the word itself has no meaning anymore. “We called for you all to ban assault weapons, and you respond with an assault… Continue reading Democracy has no meaning anymore
