Since nobody else takes The Washington Post seriously anymore, the newspaper of record for The Swamp has had to pick up the slack and take itself even more seriously.

Trump’s Winning 2020 Slogan Should Be “I’m Not a Socialist”
This socialism-in-America thing is getting out of control — and what’s emerging as a contributing factor is that even the media pundits who detest socialism aren’t hitting the nail on the head on why socialism, why all socialism’s johnny-come-lately candidates in the Democratic Party, should take a hike.
Good News for the GOP as Hispanic Support for Trump Rises
A recent Harvard/Harris poll recorded a 10-point spike in Hispanic support for Trump. It hasn’t received much attention from the mainstream media…Coming in the midst of the nationwide controversy over children and families at the U.S.-Mexico border, it suggests that Hispanics may not be the entrenched liberal voting constituency that Democrats so often imagine.
What’s Not to Like About Trump’s Policies?
Cal Thomas: Retirees with their 401k accounts and other investments must be happy…Low unemployment figures for African Americans and Hispanics (President Trump claims they are the lowest in history “because of my policies,” even though black unemployment had been on a years-long downward trend when he assumed office) nonetheless have fueled a hiring boom.
Santa Barbara’s Proposed Ban on Straws Really Sucks
Given the clear and present existential threat these plastic straws pose to all of humankind, it was only prudent that the City Council of Santa Barbara pass a law threatening jail time for bloodthirsty straw merchants who insist upon peddling these vile weapons against humanity.
How Trump Manipulates Putin
The reality is that Trump, who is a results oriented businessperson and not a seasoned politician, was continuing a very tricky and personally costly negotiation. The goal of every president who has met with Russian leaders is to prevent war, limit aggression and ultimately improve relations.
Hillary and Harvey: How America Averted a Disaster
A year and a half after the fact, we are seeing photographs of Hillary and Bill Clinton at a cozy dinner just weeks after her failed presidential campaign, with accused serial rapist Harvey Weinstein. Having powerful friends like the Clintons is a reminder of not only how someone as disgusting as Mr. Weinstein remained in power, but why people were afraid to act against him.
Cohen’s Tape Latest Silver Bullet to Finally Sink Trump (It Won’t)
You would think, at some point, these people would eventually get tired.
Democrats Go Too Far with Their Complaints
Liberals and the Democratic Party never know when to stop. Going too far with their complaints has been the folly that exposes their concerns as fever dreams. Opportunistic outrage is their drug, and like all addictions it takes over and ruins everything for them.
Stumbling into Hellfire in Helsinki (Anti)
Trump arrived in Helsinki confident that he could wing it, and he couldn’t. Perhaps it was divine providence that protected America from Hillary Clinton. Trump is still considerably better than a President Clinton 2.0. But the Donald is pushing it.
This Is No NATO for Deadbeats
The Europeans wrote the book on how to be successful deadbeats. We got another demonstration of that at the NATO summit this week in Brussels. Some of the chief practitioners of the art of welshing on a debt take a fulsome pride in their deadbeat pedigree.
Europe Is Waking Up to the Threat
Much of Europe was asleep, or in denial, when the Nazis took power and began rebuilding their military in violation of the Versailles Treaty that brought World War I to an end. Now, after years of virtually unlimited migration from predominately North African and other Muslim regions, some European nations are awakening to what this could mean for their countries and are responding, hoping it’s not too late.
Happy Fourth: The Wolves Are Inside the Gate
Where once upon a time Americans as a whole fought to cast off the chains of dictatorial governance, today’s youth — whether outright ignorant, willfully blind or completely unconcerned about historical truths — are busily engaged in putting us back in bondage.
Democrats’ 1968 Rerun Will Have a November Like Last
Call it the summer of ‘68. Rioters in the streets. Communists on the ballot. Radical leftists threaten to kidnap, rape and torture political enemies.
The Democrats Flirt with an Old Socialist Fantasy
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez isn’t trying to slip into office as a socialist in disguise. She’s serving up the real socialist dish…Flirtations can be fun, but the Democrats should be wary. Dreams can become nightmares, and they’re always costly.
A New Civil War Is Already Upon Us
The once-serious political party known as “Democrats” has been hijacked by lawless lunatics who have been sowing discontent and fomenting violence for years now. Just ask all the families of police officers in America who have been executed over the past four or five years by militants inspired by the so-called “Black Lives Matter” movement.
Maxine Waters Advances a Liberal Strategy with Her Call for Mob Action
With the appalling news of the past few weeks of mobs attempting to harass and intimidate President Trump’s female Cabinet members and staff, the inclination is to believe that this remarkable behavior, so antithetical to American values, is the result of a lack of leadership in the Democratic Party.
Bigotry Returns to Virginia
Cal Thomas: As a longtime resident of Virginia, I am well aware of its sordid history when it comes to slavery, racism and discrimination…What happened last week to White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders at the Red Hen restaurant brought back memories of those unpleasant days, except in this case it wasn’t race, but ideology that led to Ms. Sanders and her party being expelled from the establishment.
Democrats Are in a Lather Over the Good News
The immigrant children are safe, sleeping in clean bunks and eating better than most of them ever had in Central America. They’re getting American medical care and for most of them, the first appointment with a dentist in their lives. Their “ordeal” is separation from their parents, and that’s always painful for a child. But they’re not at Auschwitz.
Rich Conservatives Must Wrest Control from Liberal Media and Entertainment Messengers
Hollywood and entertainment have long been the unacknowledged propaganda arm of the liberal cause, but now it is completely out in the open. The Democratic National Committee and Democratic members of Congress are with a Hollywood “Strike Force” to try and win the midterm elections and defeat the hated President Trump in 2020.
Is California Too Much of a Good Thing?
Cutting Texas down to size is always a good thing to do, and if we have to carve up California to do it, well, that’s life. The current popular notion in California would divide the Golden State into three new states, something that could be no longer be called Golden but perhaps Plastic, Pewter and Brass.
Boy Scouts Fall on Tough, Moral-Compass Times
They’re not only open to girls — they’re not only open to LGBTQs. But apparently, the pressure’s on and the once-upon-a-time biblically based group could actually open doors to atheists and agnostics. This is where a cracked door to special rights leads — to a floodgate of special rights’ demands.
Panic Time at Camp Mueller
If this is June, it must be time to indict Paul Manafort again. The clock is ticking, and the tic-tocs are getting louder.
California’s New Water Restrictions Send Residents Fleeing to Saner States
As the state rations the water of the average of family, making it impossible for everyone to shower and wash clothes, let alone use water to wash the dishes, and perform any myriad of other efforts to keep a home clean and a family healthy, it’s the state itself and its crumbling infrastructure that is the biggest waster of water.
