When your belief in your electoral chances wanes, impeachment morphs from a constitutional response to high crimes and misdemeanors to a panic button in anticipation of four more years.

No One’s Calling the Lowly Robert Mueller a Boy Scout Now
Mueller’s team, however, were loath to pursue the honorable course. Their partisan bias compelled them to gratuitously add — after taking eight full paragraphs to explain why they didn’t conclude that Trump had obstructed justice — that they nonetheless would “not exonerate him.” This is the cheapest of cheap shots. It is obviously a cowardly attempt to damage the President with innuendo.
Mueller the Boy Scout
Ben Stein: Those of us raised to be skeptical of the media/leftist axis since the successful media coup against Richard Nixon in Watergate saw right through the whole thing. Watergate was media hysteria over basically nothing. So was the Trump/Russia collusion, as we saw it and heard it. The whole thing was cooked up by a leftist cabal within the deep state and the media followed and then led like the baying hounds they are.
Democrats Need Trump
Opposition to him is the only thing effectively uniting them.
It’s Time to Protect Trump
Ben Stein: I voted for him because he’s one hundred percent pro-life. Because he is pro-Israel. Above all because he’s pro-America, all the way.
Don’t Count Trump Out on N. Korea Yet
Many commentators in the liberal press are gloating that Donald Trump walked out of the Hanoi summit with North Korea leader Kim Jong Un empty-handed…What these articles really show is that most of the commentators are unqualified to sit in judgment of President Trump’s negotiating strategy.
The Mythical Rise in White Supremacist Violence
The evidence of pervasive white supremacist violence is pretty thin, if you allow for the number of random crazies that appear in any particular ethnic community. You won’t get the Democrats to admit this, of course. They need the black vote, so they will do and say just about anything.
The US Is the Most Accepting and Diverse Society on Earth
It is a blatant lie that racism and anti-Semitism are on a dramatic rise. The Big Lie is stirred by a cynical Democrat Left that has found pay-dirt, solid gold, in dividing voters into neat pockets of identity-politics constituencies
An Open Letter to Nick Sandmann, the Covington Kid
Dear Nick…It now is some ten days since you unintentionally became famous, and you blessedly no longer are the news outside Covington. But I write to tell you that you are not forgotten for many of us whom you made proud. That includes me, an Orthodox Rabbi.
The Conservative Coward Caucus Betrayed Trump on the Shutdown
The keyboard commandos on Twitter argued that Trump had become a “cuck” for the elite in Washington. In fact, Trump behaved as any real man would have in a similar situation: faced with a lose-lose scenario, Trump opted to go out on his own terms; to make the best of a terrible situation. That’s stoicism, not cowardice.
Pelosi and the Caucus of Crazy
Less than a month after regaining their majority in the House of Representatives, the Democrats have already demonstrated why they can no longer be trusted with power. They are so in thrall to their special interest financiers and extremist base that they can’t accept a compromise favored by 70 percent of the voters on the government shutdown.
Why Not a Conservative Woman President?
It’s one more thing for the New York Times to worry about.
Keep the Government Closed for Two Years
Dov Fischer: I don’t know about you, but I am enjoying the 25% Government shutdown. I really am. This is the closest we ever may come to demonstrating how much of our Government is wasteful, unnecessary, duplicative, and pointless.
The Divine Right of Democrats to Drool
Thus, like so many angry children, nothing less than Donald Trump’s head on a platter will mollify the Democrats. It doesn’t matter to this bumptious brood that someone has to produce at least a plausible case proving his guilt of the “crimes and misdemeanors” without which no majority in the House of Representatives will try to impeach the President.
There Are Many Dumb Arguments Against “the Wall”
As the President and others have pointed out, most Democrats supported the idea and have voted for legislation that included funding for the construction of some sort of physical barrier. Their policy pirouette on this common sense measure has thus led to some truly comical claims.
Where’s the Beef, Mueller?
The Mueller investigation remains a “collusion” probe without any collusion. For all of the media’s heavy breathing about Thursday’s news of a Michael Cohen guilty plea, it doesn’t get Mueller any closer to the stated goal of his investigation.
Cindy Hyde-Smith and the Media Lynch Mob
The media have found plenty of space for a 1975 photo in Hyde-Smith’s high school year book, her visit to a Mississippi historical site, and a semi-audible video in which she allegedly discusses voter suppression.
Democrat Losers: Undignified and Dangerous
What do Al Gore, Hillary Clinton, Stacey Abrams, and Bill Nelson have in common? Each asked the voters for important positions of leadership and promptly proved themselves unworthy of those offices when the answer was “No.”
