Either they truly believe the world began on January 20, 2025, or they think you are stupid enough to believe so yourself. To hear Democrats, progressives, and their allies… Continue reading No, the world didn’t begin on January 20 when President Trump retook office
The media and social media is in an uproar about the government shutdown, handicapping which party will prevail while the parties themselves play the usual blame game even as it is unclear the average person has noticed a thing so far. As the Associated Press characterized it on Friday morning, “Hopes for a quick end… Continue reading If a government shuts down in the forest over healthcare and illegal aliens…
Partisans can and will spin any argument they want, but the question is which ones the people in the middle actually respond to and the Republicans currently lead Democrats on the vast majority of issues.

While we do not yet know who assassinated conservative activist and Turning Point USA… Continue reading The progressive heart of darkness
