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

Trump and the truth about his supporters
It’s certainly not because we’re brainwashed. It’s because we like what we see after decades of establishment failure and outright lies about immigration, economics, international relations, and American life. It’s yet another common refrain in media circles: President Trump’s supporters are brainwashed in some fashion, beholden only to what he tells them, and unable to… Continue reading Trump and the truth about his supporters
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
The media provides material support to terrorists and should be investigated under the Patriot Act
Multiple prominent media organizations including The New York Times knew exactly what they were doing when they broadcast Hamas’ claim that Israeli conducted an airstrike on a hospital. Lawyers have been jailed for passing on the communications of clients convicted of terrorism. The media should face the same standard. On October 17, multiple media organizations… Continue reading The media provides material support to terrorists and should be investigated under the Patriot Act
Hawaii, Biden’s “heck of a job,” competence, compassion, and empathy this certainly isn’t
The President is lucky in one regard: He’s not George W. Bush or any other Republican, and so despite showing about as much empathy as Freddy Kreuger does while stalking a victim in a nightmare, he can count on the mainstream media to either ignore his failings entirely or spin them into some kind of… Continue reading Hawaii, Biden’s “heck of a job,” competence, compassion, and empathy this certainly isn’t
An atheist’s case for optimism in the face of oblivion
There might have been a time when existence was so bleak and life so cheap, humanity had little choice except to hope for more, but that period has long passed and developed countries, at least, are world’s of plenty. As an atheist, I’ve been occasionally asked how one copes with the idea that this life… Continue reading An atheist’s case for optimism in the face of oblivion
Trump-haters beware, the revolution will eat its own
From the highs of a jury finding the former President guilty of sexual assault without any evidence to the lows of a Justice Department report that found no evidence and a lot of bias in the Russian collusion investigation, Trump-haters operate under the assumption that the man deserves it no matter what. What will happen… Continue reading Trump-haters beware, the revolution will eat its own
Black white supremacy goes mainstream in less than a month
The killing of Tyre Nichols at the hands of five black police officers is proof enough for progressives that white supremacy is now colorblind, afflicting black as well as white. Policing in its entirety is now a racist endeavor, apparently due to a mind virus of some kind. Earlier this year, progressives expanded the definition… Continue reading Black white supremacy goes mainstream in less than a month
The curious case of Senator Kyrsten Sinema
The Arizona Senator declares her independence from the Democrat Party, claiming partisanship in Washington, DC has run amuck, and yet she expects nothing to change after her announcement. Progressives may have other plans after this curiously inconsequential development. Last week, Arizona Senator Kyrsten Sinema rocked the political world by announcing she was leaving the Democrat… Continue reading The curious case of Senator Kyrsten Sinema
Coronavirus and abortion: Why can’t we be more like Europe?
European countries used to be a beacon for progressives eager to expand social programs and promote “democratic socialism,” but the comparison has fallen out of favor during the pandemic because it’s no longer politically useful. Europe has taken a more reasonable approach to vaccines, including analyzing their real risks, and abortion than American progressives will… Continue reading Coronavirus and abortion: Why can’t we be more like Europe?
