When you consider the literal and figurative bullets the world dodged on the way to December 31, things could have been much, much worse, almost unimaginably so, but don’t tell our so-called betters that. They are mired in misery and think you should be too. Even in conservative circles, 2024 is getting a bad wrap,… Continue reading 2024 could’ve been a hell of a lot worse, but don’t tell the media that…

The media is only getting what’s coming after losing a nine year war against the most powerful man in the known universe
They did whatever they could, however they could, to take Trump out, and they did so in plain view of the public with a plain purpose in mind. They lost, but now we’re supposed to feel sorry for them, so sorry that they failed to achieve the goal and the person they persecuted, relentlessly, maliciously,… Continue reading The media is only getting what’s coming after losing a nine year war against the most powerful man in the known universe
Donald Trump and the law of diminishing returns
As pundits ponder the resiliency of a former President they despise, they’d do well to consider that people become dulled to controversies, real and imagined, and the accompanying rhetoric, causing both to lose their potency. There are few politicians, especially in recent memory, who have been denigrated as aggressively and hyperbolically as President Trump. Lately,… Continue reading Donald Trump and the law of diminishing returns
Winston Churchill and our modern fetish with ankle-biting
Last week, Tucker Carlson interviewed a historian who claimed the legendary Prime Minister was the chief villain in World War II, more responsible for the war than Hitler. Previously, progressives condemned him as a racist retrograde, nor is Churchill alone. The incessant need to continually re-evaluate the past infects both the left and increasingly the… Continue reading Winston Churchill and our modern fetish with ankle-biting
Let them eat joy
One narrative holds that Vice President Kamala Harris has created the most joyous, transcendent election campaign since President Barack Obama in less than three weeks. Another is that she has done absolutely nothing except garner larger crowds, read someone else’s scripts, and pose for the cameras. Like magic, the media has settled on a new… Continue reading Let them eat joy
Trump, Teddy Roosevelt, and the nature of an unstoppable force
Saturday’s heinous events will not prompt his detractors to reconsider, but to the average American, it seems sure to be a defining moment, one that allows President Trump to transcend the political box Democrats, some Republicans, and the mainstream media have tried to imprison him in for nine years. On October 14, 1912, former President… Continue reading Trump, Teddy Roosevelt, and the nature of an unstoppable force
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
Progressives want less people to save the planet
Celebrating the declining birthrate as some of have done will not save the planet. It will lead to less human fulfillment, less innovation, a lower standard of living, more loneliness, and a world that most would not want to live in. For years, if not decades, conservatives have suspected that progressives simply don’t like people. … Continue reading Progressives want less people to save the planet
Israel: The stain of abstaining at the UN pleases no one
If the President thinks this is a genocide, say it and demand a change in course. If he thinks it’s a just war, but he has a better idea how to fight it, say it. Voting present simply isn’t an option anymore. Earlier this week, the United Nations Security Council passed a resolution calling for… Continue reading Israel: The stain of abstaining at the UN pleases no one
Bill Clinton and who the radicals really are
President Clinton isn’t quite a Republican by today’s standards, but he’s much closer to one than the current Democrat Party, and if Democrats still held his positions, or anything like them, there would be broad bipartisan support for any number of major reforms that would benefit the entire country. In yet another common refrain, the… Continue reading Bill Clinton and who the radicals really are
