Back in 2017, the establishment was able to convince themselves President Trump was a one-of-a-kind defect in American politics that they could correct somehow, but that illusion will be shattered should he win again. If former President Donald Trump prevails next week, his victory will result in a political contradiction of the highest possible order. … Continue reading The crazy contradictions of a Trump victory

This Fourth of July, the sound you hear might be progressive heads exploding instead of fireworks
Yes, it’s been a good week for conservatives, one of the best I can remember since Trump was elected in 2016, and we have much to celebrate tomorrow. We should not, however, gloat too much or get too cocky. Teddy Roosevelt’s political kaleidoscope changes fast, in ways we cannot possibly predict. At the risk of… Continue reading This Fourth of July, the sound you hear might be progressive heads exploding instead of fireworks
Wait, I thought the Supreme Court was just a bunch of partisan hacks in black robes
Despite the naysayers, the Supreme Court continues to demonstrate a rare independence of thought in our polarized age, issuing several decisions just this month that featured shifting coalitions of conservative and liberal Justices, completely defying any simple categorization as partisan. Progressives, along with some conservatives, have taken up trashing the Supreme Court and recommending all… Continue reading Wait, I thought the Supreme Court was just a bunch of partisan hacks in black robes
Trump’s intentionally salacious trials, from Stormy Daniels testimony to the FBI staging lurid photos
Stormy Daniels tells the court she spanked a former President with a rolled up magazine that had his photo on the cover before insisting she can speak to dead people while the FBI admits to staging the legal equivalent of pornography with a sensational photo of altered classified documents. While the media has been obsessed… Continue reading Trump’s intentionally salacious trials, from Stormy Daniels testimony to the FBI staging lurid photos
Free speech, the Supreme Court, and the closed loop conspiracy of supposed misinformation experts
The government funds left-leaning experts who pretend to be independent arbiters of the truth, then takes the findings from the people they are paying, and pressures or even sometimes extorts companies to censor content at their bidding. The Supreme Court, unfortunately, might continue to allow it. Last week, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in… Continue reading Free speech, the Supreme Court, and the closed loop conspiracy of supposed misinformation experts
Biden’s best political move is to preemptively pardon Trump
The average voter understands that democracy requires the ability to support a candidate of their choosing and using “lawfare” as a means to bankrupt or jail a candidate is fundamentally undemocratic. There is, however, a way to square this political circle. It’ll never happen for more reasons than I count, but President Joe Biden’s best… Continue reading Biden’s best political move is to preemptively pardon Trump
Trump can’t lose for winning
Following a unanimous ruling in the Supreme Court, we’re in a brave new world of completely backwards reasoning and it will not be long before someone insists we need to cancel the election entirely to save democracy. Under anything resembling normal circumstances, a unanimous decision from the Supreme Court, that is a ruling that has… Continue reading Trump can’t lose for winning
Fairly and unfairly evaluating Trump’s immunity claims
Last week, the reasonable outcome was for the Supreme Court to reject the case entirely. This week it’s to reject even the narrow question the Court proposed ignoring the obvious importance to the future of the country. Is it any wonder few pay any attention to the experts any longer? Last Thursday, the Supreme Court… Continue reading Fairly and unfairly evaluating Trump’s immunity claims
Democrats are planning an insurrection of their own, apparently
Congressional Democrats are actively considering blocking the certification of the election results in the event of a Trump victory, the very same thing they claim makes him and his fellow Republicans insurrectionists, demonstrating once again that Democracy is whatever they say it is at the moment. To hear Democrats and their allies in the mainstream… Continue reading Democrats are planning an insurrection of their own, apparently
2024 might make 2020 seem like an ordinary year
2024 will be defined by a confluence of events most of which remain completely unpredictable, far more so than most years in modern memory. Call it the quantum mechanics or Schrödinger’s cat of years, where we will not know what happens until the waveforms collapse into history. 2020 was considered an extraordinary dumpster fire of… Continue reading 2024 might make 2020 seem like an ordinary year
