Confessions of a Conservative Atheist
The world’s only one man media empire
Despite the Democrat’s big win and the hyperbolic claims every election cycle that this is the most important in history, not much will change over the next two years if recent history is any indication. Whether you call it a “thumping” like President George W. Bush in 2006 or a “shellacking” like Barack Obama in… Continue reading The most inconsequential midterm election since 2010, and the pending return of the pen and the phone
You can vote to punish the President if you want, but be careful you don’t end up punishing yourself as well. For obvious reasons, Democrats and their enablers in the mainstream media are desperate to frame the midterm elections, just two weeks from today, as a referendum on President Donald Trump’s time in office to… Continue reading Elections aren’t referendums
If mainstream party members fail to act, Democrat Senate candidates and eventually the 2028 Presidential nominee will be in the bizarre position of being asked whether they support abolishing their own positions in the government. As far as political platforms go, the Democratic Socialists of America’s “Workers Deserve More” is radical almost beyond description to… Continue reading The Democratic Socialists of America want to abolish the Senate, the Supreme Court, and the Presidency, but where are the Democrat Champions of Democracy?
While the conventional wisdom holds that the Republicans have become increasingly extreme, the Democrats keeping picking proud socialists to be their standard bearers, some of the most radical politicians in history on a major party ticket. For at least a decade, the conventional wisdom has held that the Republican Party has become increasingly extreme, moving… Continue reading The Democratic Socialists of America are devouring the Democrat Party, who are the real radicals now?
I’ve long maintained that politics is the pursuit of power, but it’s not everyday that politicians so clearly demand changing the rules of the game to suit their needs and democracy without rules isn’t democracy at all. Less than two weeks ago, Democrats were giddy that Virginia voters narrowly supported a referendum for a supposedly… Continue reading Reminder: Democracy continues to be whatever Democrats claim at the moment and that just happens to be what will make them more powerful
At this point, the only thing I really want to see is an end to the self-righteous sanctimony and an open admission that the gerrymander wars are what politics is always about, power, plain and simple. Last week Virginia upended the midterms by narrowly passing a referendum to the state constitution that allows for a… Continue reading Why I don’t give a crap about the gerrymander wars
The ceasefire is shaky, but we know this: After what everyone said wouldn’t happen, magically happened, they still concluded that what happened was bad, all without missing a beat. It’s impossible to capture the insanity that President Donald Trump’s detractors attempted to pass off as wisdom over the past five weeks in a single post,… Continue reading Trump, Iran, and the art of the impossible deal
Last year, Democrats put the country through the longest shutdown in history and have precisely nothing to show for it. The situation is even worse for them right now, but Trump Derangement and the constant belief that this time things will be different, is a sad yet powerful thing. Though the ink is barely dry… Continue reading Don’t look now, but Democrats are picking yet another funding battle they will lose
It’s hard to believe we are less than six months from the targeted assassination of Charlie Kirk. Back then, turning down the rhetoric was all the rage, but now everyone loves the smell of napalm in the morning. “I love the smell of napalm in the morning,” exclaims Lieutenant Bill Kilgore in Apocalypse Now as… Continue reading Progressives go full Apocalypse Now
As a general rule, at least some policies are going to have a neutral impact if only because they are ineffective, not everything is going to be illegal or unconstitutional, and the worst possible political and other outcome isn’t going to happen in every situation. While it’s traditional for the opposition party to oppose, I… Continue reading The Orange Man Bad Theory of Everything
