Are we witnessing “The Battle for Minneapolis” as The New Yorker claimed or “Our Gettysburg Moment” as The Bulwark had it, or are progressives simply so far gone they see no danger in taunting men they described as poorly trained thugs with guns? To hear Democrats and their progressive allies tell it, President Donald Trump’s… Continue reading Either progressives truly think this is a war or they have officially lost their minds

Democrats in Minnesota and elsewhere desperately need a lesson in the nature of power
Contrary to the conventional wisdom, President Trump cannot simply allow his political adversaries to dictate his actions. No President has ever done so, and none ever will. Full disclosure: I wrote most of this post before the second ICE shooting left a man dead in Minneapolis less than a month after the first on Saturday… Continue reading Democrats in Minnesota and elsewhere desperately need a lesson in the nature of power
Democrats against democracy
By almost any definition, democracies are based on the government implementing the will of the people as expressed in elections, but the people have spoken and suddenly, that will must be denied by any means necessary. In the history of American politics, few things were more clear than President Donald Trump’s pledge to conduct mass… Continue reading Democrats against democracy
Violence is rarely a good strategy, but it’s even worse when facing President Trump
While politics ain’t beanbag as they say, if you are going to go so hardcore that you demand blood and insist people get shot for the cause, you better be sure it’s going to work. Earlier this week, I opined that the Democrat’s political strategy was to foment violence and it was the only leverage… Continue reading Violence is rarely a good strategy, but it’s even worse when facing President Trump
Violence is the Democrat strategy and their only hope for leverage
Last summer, Democrats called for blood and began training “warriors” to resist ICE. Last week, there was yet another tragic instance of actual blood, blood that was immediately seized upon as leverage to enact their preferred policy of ending deportations. In our system of government, the minority party generally seeks leverage to influence events. Lacking… Continue reading Violence is the Democrat strategy and their only hope for leverage
Democrats can’t handle the truth on illegal orders
“If you look at popular culture, like, you watch, you know, A Few Good Men, like we have plenty of examples since World War II, in Vietnam, where people were told to follow illegal orders, and they did it, and they were prosecuted for it,” Senator Elissa Slotkin thinks she’s Tom Cruise confronting Jack Nicholson.… Continue reading Democrats can’t handle the truth on illegal orders
The new Democrat nullification movement
Rather than accept that the federal government supersedes the states when operating within the sphere of its enumerative powers, the claim then and now was that states could pick and choose which laws they would follow and enforce. In the lead up to the Civil War, slaveholding states embraced the idea that they could nullify… Continue reading The new Democrat nullification movement
No, the world didn’t begin on January 20 when President Trump retook office
We have two choices when the Democrats and the media assert President Donald Trump’s actions are unprecedented in anything other than the pace, volume, and effectiveness. 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
Inside every American is a fascist waiting to come out
There’s an old expression that one man’s terrorist is another’s freedom fighter, but today, we might update it to one man’s defender of democracy is another’s fascist. There’s an old expression that one man’s terrorist is another’s freedom fighter, but today, especially in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s shocking killing last week, we might update… Continue reading Inside every American is a fascist waiting to come out
Democrats demand people get shot to protect child labor on pot farms
“At town halls in their districts and in one-on-one meetings with constituents and activists,” Axios reported after speaking to more than two dozen Democrats in the House of Representatives, “Democratic members of Congress are facing a growing thrum of demands to break the rules, fight dirty — and not be afraid to get hurt.” Last… Continue reading Democrats demand people get shot to protect child labor on pot farms
