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
They used to say country over party. Perhaps, we should put the future over politics, and rather than behaving like craven fools politicians should lead. If you’ve been looking for an issue that finally unites Republicans and Democrats, liberals and conservatives alike, opposition to so-called AI datacenters might be it. As the Associated Press characterized… Continue reading The datacenter delusion
The sight, however symbolic, of the Arab Nations joining traditional European, North American, and Asian allies along with their long term adversary Israel in a joint mission would be something no one has ever seen before, perhaps as important as Teddy Roosevelt’s Great White Fleet was way back in 1907. Last week, the media was… Continue reading The Trump Armada
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
Progressives are betting entirely on hatred of the President and a disaster of any kind, but what if that disaster never occurs? While it is normal for the opposition party to oppose, I don’t think many would argue that opposition to President Trump is on an entirely different level than anything we have seen… Continue reading Democrats are all in against President Trump, but they might find themselves boxed in later this year
Why they seem to believe they can simultaneously slander him and expect him to treat them as partners in government remains a mystery that flies in the face of political history and human nature. Earlier this week, Democrats were outraged at President Donald Trump for two reasons, one completely inconsequential, the other quite consequential, nicely… Continue reading Democrats can’t have it both ways on President Trump, simultaneously smearing him and demanding he treat them with something less than the contempt they themselves reek
Senator Bernie Sanders prefers private jets to flying coach for the people and the heir to the Hyatt fortune is now a frontrunner in the new resistance while Democrats outraise and outspend their Republican counterparts from shady big donors. It seems some billionaires and associated luxuries are more equal than others. Last week, democratic socialist… Continue reading This revolution requires private jets and billionaire backers, apparently
Does anyone remember Elon Musk’s supposed Nazi salute? Or when planes were supposedly falling out of they sky in other countries because of President Trump? How about claims the entire government was about to collapse and people were going to die? If President Joe Biden presided over the Era of Perpetual Bailouts, we can confidently… Continue reading The Era of Perpetual Outrage
To combat climate change, there was almost no part of your life Democrats and their progressives allies didn’t want to disrupt, from the car you drive to the house you live in to the food you eat, but somehow, this was all good and great, the height of enlightened thinking and if you weren’t completely… Continue reading Reminder: Democrats have called for massive disruption for decades and can’t possibly be taken seriously now
For better or worse, one of the most significant cultural shifts since the counterculture revolution has been our collective tolerance of risk, and we should not tolerate any activity that violates the current societal norms around safety and public behavior. At the risk of stating the obvious typing away at a keyboard in front of… Continue reading The fine line between protests and terrorism in the era of safety and security
