Trump, the affordability scam, and the truth that we buy too much junk

Progressives ignored high prices for years, mocked those who worried about inflation, and for decades have waged a war on consumerism, but suddenly, we’re supposed to believe the American Dream is measured in cheap plastic dolls. Over the past several weeks, President Donald Trump has been heavily criticized from the left and some on the… Continue reading Trump, the affordability scam, and the truth that we buy too much junk

Reminder: Democrats have called for massive disruption for decades and can’t possibly be taken seriously now

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

Reminder: President Obama cut spending over 4% in 2012 and 2013, but the world didn’t end, despite claims we were heading over the cliff without brakes

While you wouldn’t know it from the collective outrage visited upon us daily, between 2011 and 2013, total federal spending fell from $3.6 trillion to $3.45 trillion, but then as now, many predicted disasters that simply didn’t happen.  As is so often the case in our increasingly absurdist times, the conventional wisdom holds that all… Continue reading Reminder: President Obama cut spending over 4% in 2012 and 2013, but the world didn’t end, despite claims we were heading over the cliff without brakes

Station Eleven, Hamlet, and the importance of the stories we tell each other and ourselves

HBO Max’s Station Eleven could’ve been a standard post-apocalyptic drama, but the introduction of a traveling caravan of actors who perform Shakespeare after the world ends, transforms the show into a story about stories.  Their importance, their interpretation, how they are shared and how they change over time, something made apparent in the very first… Continue reading Station Eleven, Hamlet, and the importance of the stories we tell each other and ourselves

Biden: 1,000,000 dead, send lawyers, guns, and money, the shit has hit the fan

This week the United States is expected to pass the tragic milestone of 1,000,000 deaths attributed to the coronavirus, but both the President’s reaction and the media’s coverage are radically different than when Trump was in office.  Back then, the President had “blood on his hands” for 400,000 deaths and Biden was our savior.  Now,… Continue reading Biden: 1,000,000 dead, send lawyers, guns, and money, the shit has hit the fan

The pandemic is over, Fauci told me so, or did he?

Confusion reigns supreme as Dr. Fauci declares the pandemic over one day, and reverses course the next.  The face of the coronavirus fight also declines to attend an event in Washington because of his personal risk, while we learn a leading physician influencer is a total fraud.  Could anything better represent the pandemic in its… Continue reading The pandemic is over, Fauci told me so, or did he?
