What a Great Time to Be President
The die is cast; history’s verdict pends. President Trump will either be a dismal failure or a legendary leader.
Trump’s Goose Isn’t Cooked Yet
In their preemptive exuberance the president’s enemies have begun what amounts almost to a post-mortem on the Trump era. This prematurely fattened goose is cackling too loudly and too soon for several reasons.
Obama and His Gang of Untouchables
In Washington Obama is feared, not loved; no one dares to cross him. It’s the Chicago Way.
Get Your Woke Hands Off My Bookshelf
Adam Ellwanger: Calls to decolonize one’s bookshelf are nothing but a polite (and sometimes not so polite) alternative to book-burning. By restricting what I read, these Jacobins seek to control what I think: they seek to colonize my mind with their values, their prejudices, their ethics. They seek to erase history to control the future. Don’t let them.
The Rebirth of John Bolton
The mustachioed ogre who the Left once wanted tried for war crimes is finally earning the affection of the Trump-hating Beltway establishment that eluded him for years.
America Still Looks Pretty Good from Abroad
If the United States is really as bad as the Left would have us believe, why are people still trying to come here in droves?
Tucker Carlson Matters
Charlie Kirk: Right now, a concerted effort to eliminate Tucker Carlson—his show, his views, his opinions, his advertisers, indeed his very presence in American public life—is being executed with violent precision by a group of very powerful Americans. This is objectively wrong.
Dems, Not Republicans, Protect Dirty Cops
The Trump-related victims of James Comey’s FBI may not be black, they were unfairly targeted nevertheless. It was not race that motivated their persecutors, nor was it any actual suspected wrongdoing. They were targeted because of their political views.
The FBI Bends Its Knee to the Mob
While they were supposed to be on patrol to protect our nation’s capital from looters, a large group from the FBI’s Washington field office encountered a mob. Wearing their FBI insignia…they bent their knees in servitude to the movement sweeping the country…Citizens might have hoped the FBI would take the side of the law against the identitarian mob looting, rioting, and generally plaguing our cities.
Riots Expose Divide Among Potential Trump Successors
Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) is the leading exponent of using strong force against the George Floyd riots; Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.), on the other hand, focused more on police racism. Cotton spoke up for the Silent Majority; Hawley conceded ground to radical left-wing activists.
10 Rules for Postmodern Rioting
Is it deemed more or less evil to wear a mask while hitting a store owner over the head with a two-by-four?
Trump Should Not Rescue Cities Again
Not one drop of Marine blood should be shed on the streets of Minneapolis or Chicago or Los Angeles to save Democrats from themselves yet again.
Whatever Happened to Law and Order?
Softness on crime and hostility to law enforcement became a central defining principle of the liberal elite. This toxic viewpoint bled into other issues, keeping the nation divided in what should have been a time of national reconciliation.
How Covid-19 Threatens Religious Freedom
As the coronavirus crisis unfolds and the 2016 election and post-electoral scandals ooze into the open, God is affronted and false gods disintegrate. The discussion over the opening of churches is generally presented as a public health issue, coupled with a First Amendment freedom of religion argument. But, in many cases, it is an outright assault on the practice of religion generally.
The Real Covid-19 Numbers Should Factor Out Nursing Homes
The oversight of not separating statistics about long term care facilities from the totals has had enormous economic consequences.
We Didn’t Close the Country in 1957-58
A deadly flu was tearing through America during those years. It ended up killing some 116,000 Americans—in a country that, with 170 million people, had about half the population of today’s America…But America in 1957 did not shut down. The National Football League played its games. Elvis Presley kept on wiggling his hips in concerts and TV shows…
Hydroxychloroquine: What Does Trump Have to Lose?
Are critics afraid HCQ will kill the president, or that taking it will kill their narrative that it’s “dangerous”?
PBS Teams Up with Chinese Media to Produce Propaganda Film
PBS, the television network that is primarily funded through taxpayer dollars, is working with a media outlet that is owned by the Chinese government in order to release a propaganda film that portrays China in a positive light. Numerous PBS affiliates…are working with CGTN, the Chinese-owned outlet, on a nationwide premiere of the film “Voices from the Frontline: China’s War on Poverty.”
Is Obama’s Long History of Playing Dirty Finally Catching Up to Him?
The unraveling of the Michael Flynn case and ongoing investigation into Obama’s Justice Department should put an end to the preposterous claim that his administration was “scandal-free.”
Why America’s Extreme Reaction to Coronavirus Was Predictable — And Why It Must End
While there were many possible strategies that could have been employed to mitigate its impact…such ideas were largely ignored. America did what it always seems to do when presented with a threat to the homeland: the most extreme thing possible.
Reopen Society and Shut Down Moral Narcissism
Moral narcissists are helping to make sure America’s COVID-19 lockdown continues in full force, shaming anyone who objects, refuses, questions, or even simply voices concerns or complaints.
In Dealing with Flynn, Comey’s FBI Acted Like KGB
What happened to Flynn is quite simply an atrocity. Everyone responsible should lose their jobs, if Flynn’s lawyers betrayed their client they should be disbarred, and the whole crew of plotters should be hauled off to jail. And Michael Flynn deserves his job back.
The Failed Experiment of Social Distancing
The history of science, sadly, is littered with bad experiments gone horribly wrong. The Great Social Distancing Experiment of 2020, when it is over, will very likely be toward the top of that list.
