Speaking to American Men: If Vice President Al Gore’s attempt to portray himself as an Alpha male in 2000 is any indication, history repeats itself, though sometimes it’s always a farce

Christian TwisteLeave a comment

As Democrats pour $20 million into an effort to “study the syntax, language and content that gains attention and virality in the spaces” male voters frequent, remember that 25 years ago, a Presidential candidate attempted to rebrand himself in a similar way to laughable results. Way back in 1999, Presidential candidate and sitting Vice President… Continue reading Speaking to American Men: If Vice President Al Gore’s attempt to portray himself as an Alpha male in 2000 is any indication, history repeats itself, though sometimes it’s always a farce

Trump’s electoral triumph is even more astounding than previously thought, or so says the New York Times

Christian TwisteLeave a comment

For years, the media has assumed that demography is destiny, that a more diversified country would lead to an ascendant Democrat Party while reducing Republicans to an ineffectual rump.  President Trump has proven them completely, catastrophically wrong, doing what they would have said was impossible. After President Donald Trump’s stunning victory last year, I described… Continue reading Trump’s electoral triumph is even more astounding than previously thought, or so says the New York Times

The media is only getting what’s coming after losing a nine year war against the most powerful man in the known universe

Christian TwisteLeave a comment

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

A Ferrari in every driveway and a Rolex on every wrist

Christian TwisteLeave a comment

In the real world, everyone instinctively knows this is impossible, that you cannot subsidize your way to rich, all while embracing the Toyota and Timex equivalent.  Why?  To the extent Vice President Kamala Harris has an economic policy, it can perhaps best be summarized as a continuation of President Joe Biden’s subsidize everything approach, where… Continue reading A Ferrari in every driveway and a Rolex on every wrist

JD Vance, Cat Ladies, and an Anatomy of a Fake Scandal

Christian TwisteLeave a comment

Everyone had a “cat lady” on their block as a child.  The house you crept past for fear of getting yelled at for no reason, the one you’d dread should a stray ball land on her lawn, the door you ran from should it open.  No one, and I mean no one wanted that person… Continue reading JD Vance, Cat Ladies, and an Anatomy of a Fake Scandal

Assassination attempts are inevitable, piss poor security is to blame rather than rhetoric

Christian TwisteLeave a comment

Former President Donald Trump is not the first leader to be targeted, nor will he be the last.  As long as there have been politicians, or leaders of any kind, there have been those who seek to kill them for reasons of every kind. As we begin to internalize and rationalize the heinous events of… Continue reading Assassination attempts are inevitable, piss poor security is to blame rather than rhetoric

Oppenheimer and the “whitewashing” of the Japanese in World War II

Christian TwisteLeave a comment

In truth, the Japanese were the aggressors, responsible for millions of deaths and uncounted war crimes.  They aspired to be the very colonialist, imperial power that progressives claim to loathe, but the ironclad rules of intersectionality make them the victim when the United States is involved. Earlier this month, the Oscar winning film Oppenheimer premiered… Continue reading Oppenheimer and the “whitewashing” of the Japanese in World War II

Time is the only tell whether Trump can continue defying the odds, but by now, no one should bet against him and love him or hate him, all of us have the proverbial front row seat to history in the making. Earlier this week, former President Donald Trump won the Iowa Caucuses so convincingly that… Continue reading Trump’s immunity to the laws of political gravity and legal exposure, potentially

Palestine, Hamas, Israel, and antisemitism: Good faith is hard to find

Christian TwisteLeave a comment

Remember when the Tea Party movement that formed under President Barack Obama was maligned as a racist haven for white supremacy by many of the same people who are now studiously avoiding a discussion of the rampant antisemitism in their midst? In principle, it is possible to be a supporter of Palestine without being an… Continue reading Palestine, Hamas, Israel, and antisemitism: Good faith is hard to find

White saviors, the progressive preference for fantasy over reality, and the reality that they secretly want black people to suffer

Christian Twiste3 Comments

An almost 15-year old controversy over the Academy Award winning film, The Blind Side, is thrust back into the spotlight, proving once and for all that no good deed goes unpunished for progressives, and helping others through good works only counts if you are of the right race. We should all agree that modern storytellers… Continue reading White saviors, the progressive preference for fantasy over reality, and the reality that they secretly want black people to suffer
