Biden and Harris demand peace in the Middle East despite a string of victories that might actually secure it, while seeking total victory in Ukraine even as Russia continues to flaunt their growing power

Previously, I had opined that just when you thought the Biden-Harris foreign policy couldn’t get any worse it does.  I followed that up by claiming that we’re an impotent bystander in world affairs, but somehow they have managed to continue to reach depths previously thought unreachable. Earlier this week, Secretary of State Antony Blinken made… Continue reading Biden and Harris demand peace in the Middle East despite a string of victories that might actually secure it, while seeking total victory in Ukraine even as Russia continues to flaunt their growing power

Is Trump really only in it for himself?

The events of this summer make it clear President Trump is risking his very life to run, coming within less than an inch of having his head blown off on national television.  What selfish, self-interested person would voluntarily lay their lives on the line any time they appear in public?  With two weeks to go… Continue reading Is Trump really only in it for himself?

A Ferrari in every driveway and a Rolex on every wrist

In the real world, everyone instinctively knows this is impossible, that you cannot subsidize your way to rich, all while embracing the Toyota and Timex equivalent.  Why?  To the extent Vice President Kamala Harris has an economic policy, it can perhaps best be summarized as a continuation of President Joe Biden’s subsidize everything approach, where… Continue reading A Ferrari in every driveway and a Rolex on every wrist

Reminder: Democrats lead an unprecedented assault on freedom and democracy during the pandemic

Strangely, the entire issue seems to have disappeared from the public consciousness, an event so traumatic, we’ve suppressed the memory of forced lockdowns, masking, school closures, and more, save to criticize President Trump’s economic record by cherry picking a period during which we effectively committed economic suicide. One of the many ironies of the 2024… Continue reading Reminder: Democrats lead an unprecedented assault on freedom and democracy during the pandemic

A civil debate, but not for the reasons many think

In a wise strategic decision for both campaigns, Governor Walz focused almost exclusively on former President Trump’s unfitness for office and Senator Vance presented a calm, compelling, and rational case for President Trump without the usual bombast. Much has been made of the fact that Tuesday’s Vice Presidential debate between Senator JD Vance and Governor… Continue reading A civil debate, but not for the reasons many think

Biden and Harris have turned the United States into an incompetent bystander in world affairs 

Much of the recent focus has been on Israel for obvious reasons, but no one listens to us anymore. From Iran to Russia to China to even potentially close allies like India, we watch as the world burns and global power realigns. Last week, Israel shocked the world by executing a massive aerial bombardment on… Continue reading Biden and Harris have turned the United States into an incompetent bystander in world affairs 

Biden’s foreign policy is so bad, even CNN can barely spin it anymore

The President appeared before the UN General Assembly to brag about himself and lie about a peace plan for the Middle East that his own Administration has scrapped. Even worse, the Administration admits that despite months of effort, there is no Plan B and no way forward from here to end the bloodshed. It’s official: … Continue reading Biden’s foreign policy is so bad, even CNN can barely spin it anymore

Donald Trump and the law of diminishing returns

As pundits ponder the resiliency of a former President they despise, they’d do well to consider that people become dulled to controversies, real and imagined,  and the accompanying rhetoric, causing both to lose their potency.  There are few politicians, especially in recent memory, who have been denigrated as aggressively and hyperbolically as President Trump.  Lately,… Continue reading Donald Trump and the law of diminishing returns

Trump: Dead or alive, you’re coming with me, so says the establishment

Conceivably, we might have given them the benefit of the doubt the first time around, applying the old adage about fooling me once and fooling me twice, but the second? After the second assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump in as many months, it’s become all-too clear that the establishment, which includes the Secret… Continue reading Trump: Dead or alive, you’re coming with me, so says the establishment

From cat ladies to eating cats, a presidential election like no other in microcosm

While the raging debates over cats – first childless cat ladies and now whether or not Haitian migrants are actually eating felines in Springfield, OH - might seem small on the surface, the ferocity reveals much more fundamental issues underneath. Six months ago, if you were to suggest that the presidential election would be dominated… Continue reading From cat ladies to eating cats, a presidential election like no other in microcosm
