Stuck on Nazi stupid

Democrats and their media allies have decided that President Trump is, at least for now, untouchable, having already survived the onslaught and prospered, but for some reason they believe the same overheated rhetoric, rhetoric that clearly devalues the Holocaust as they claim others are doing, will take down Elon Musk.  If you needed any more… Continue reading Stuck on Nazi stupid

If only Democrats had a time machine, they could go back and defeat President-elect Donald Trump or could they?

Between Trump’s sentencing, Biden claiming he could win the election, and the release of the Special Counsel report, it’s like we’re stuck in a time loop, repeating the same thing and expecting a difficult result, or progressives are hoping for a time machine to go back and replay events to generate a different result. As… Continue reading If only Democrats had a time machine, they could go back and defeat President-elect Donald Trump or could they?

Dungeons & Dragons can’t stop doubling down on woke in a small lesson for those who think the war is over

For whatever reason, there is something deep in the modern psyche that has been corrupted and cannot bring itself to accept the past as it was, that greatness has always been tinged with things we come to regret, that progress isn’t perfect, and that people never will be.  While much of corporate America was busy… Continue reading Dungeons & Dragons can’t stop doubling down on woke in a small lesson for those who think the war is over

Trump in Paris and a presidential transition unlike any other

When Trump first entered office in 2017, he was a political neophyte, but his challenge was even starker with seemingly no awareness that a resistance in the very body he was supposed to lead would soon be actively plotting against him. By now, everyone knows that President-elect Donald Trump is only the second Chief Executive… Continue reading Trump in Paris and a presidential transition unlike any other

King Lear and the primal genius of Kenneth Branagh

It’s a credit to Shakespeare’s genius that he was able to craft one of the greatest plays ever written from such an unbelievable beginning, but it’s also his genius that the opening is the very heart of it all. Despite his protestations, Lear has broken one of the bonds that protects civilization from the lawlessness… Continue reading King Lear and the primal genius of Kenneth Branagh

Trump’s brilliantly subversive Cabinet picks and the scandal that should be currently engulfing FEMA

The insistence that President Trump’s primary goal is to take some kind of vengeance on his enemies is only possible if you ignore a mounting body of evidence that all isn’t well with the government, particularly at the leadership level. Shortly before the election, Republicans accused the Biden-Harris administration of political discrimination after two devastating… Continue reading Trump’s brilliantly subversive Cabinet picks and the scandal that should be currently engulfing FEMA

The Washington Post’s endorsement “scandal” says a lot more about progressives than anything else

Inherent in the outrage is the idea that media outlets exist to advance their progressive view of the world, prioritizing their beliefs and preferences above all others.  Progressives have whipped themselves into a frenzy over The Washington Post’s decision not to endorse a candidate for president this year or, assuming they stick to it, any… Continue reading The Washington Post’s endorsement “scandal” says a lot more about progressives than anything else

Harris has nothing on Trump and everyone knows it

While former President Donald Trump might not prevail next week, we can say with surety that the hope, the joy, the vibes, the brat, and everything else that was supposed to propel Vice President Kamala Harris to victory has faded, to be replaced by what can best be summarized as Orange Man Bad. Rather incredibly… Continue reading Harris has nothing on Trump and everyone knows it

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

Modern capitalism, John D. Rockefeller, and the lies of the 1619 Project revisited

Rockefeller himself was an unlikely business tycoon, born into a relatively poor family in upstate New York on July 8, 1839.  His mother was the daughter of a local minister.  His father was effectively a con artist, who had multiple identities and sold fake cures for cancer and other maladies.  Still, he changed the world… Continue reading Modern capitalism, John D. Rockefeller, and the lies of the 1619 Project revisited
