Kurt Schlichter: The Democrats’ “Biden is FDR and not just a desiccated, pervy old weirdo” dreams have died. Their dreams of five trillion in handouts to bums and donors have died. Their dreams of enshrining their ability to cheat in elections have died. The Democrats can’t even shatter norms, like the filibuster, competently. So much fail in so little time.

Trump vs DeSantis: Advantage DeSantis
Kurt Schlichter: I did Twitter poll on Trump v. DeSantis, which is unscientific yet still more scientific than the people telling you to wear a face thing. My previous one in June had Trump 45.7%, DeSantis 50.1% and others 4.1%. This week’s poll wasTrump 33.4%, DeSantis 59.7%.
Australia Is a Mess, But Who Cares?
The former prison island has reverted back to one, not only for those who haven’t gotten the shot, but even for those who have. The elected officials there are quite vocal about what they’re willing to do to anyone who won’t obey.
The Best Path Forward for Omicron: Let It Rip
Instead of doling out free Covid-19 tests willy-nilly and encouraging everyone to test and avoid one another, we should be discouraging mass testing and eschewing any and all arbitrary restrictions on public gatherings. Leading red states such as Texas and Florida should lead the way by restricting the mass availability of testing for all but the vulnerable and immunocompromised.
We Need to Make It Harder to Vote
Derek Hunter: If you’re not willing to stand in line for a bit, go home. I don’t care how you would’ve voted, the world doesn’t have to cater to you. End early voting, end no excuse absentee voting, require photo IDs from everyone. Hire more poll workers and open more polling places, but make voting a conscious decision requiring effort, not an afterthought..
If Your Insurrection Lasts Longer Than 4 Hours, Consult Your Doctor
Jan. 6 only lasted 3 hours, 1 shy of how long you’re supposed to wait before consulting your doctor if Viagra works too well. January 20, 2017, never stopped, spending the ensuing years rolling across the country bringing death and destruction that continue to this day. You can see why Democrats wouldn’t want to commemorate that, and why Republicans absolutely should.
Hey Dems, We Got Your Election Reforms Right Here
Kurt Schlichter: Dems seek to make it easier for lazy and stupid people to vote. This is perfectly reasonable, considering that the indolent and idiotic make up key components of the Democrat coalition. Further, they want to flood the system with unaccountable votes in order to allow themselves to cheat. In this way, they can steal wins…
The 50 Worst Journalists of 2021 (Part 1)
Includes Savannah Guthrie, Ian Millhiser, David Frump, Anderson Cooper and Lester Holt.
Can Biden Order You to Be Sterilized?
Could some future president, given the environmental threat to our planet that some scientists believe is driven by population growth, order that every American who has had two or more children get these two shots?
There’s a Reason Dems Are Terrified of DeSantis
He’s Donald Trump without the personal baggage and significantly better political and personnel instincts. He needs to be destroyed the same way Texas Governor Gregg Abbott and South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem were destroyed– because compared to ANY Democrat, but especially the senile figurehead in the White House and his wildly unpopular, grating side-kick they’d easily crush any of them.
The Tide Is Turning in Freedom’s Favor
Kurt Schlichter: In a few years, it is entirely possible that we will see that December 2021 was the high-water mark of the great progressive coup, when leftists reached out for the brass ring, but their soft, girlish hands were too weak to grasp it. It is likely all downhill for them from here, though that is not entirely clear to us right now.
How Is Bill Clinton Not in Prison After Maxwell Guilty Verdict?
Given the jury’s findings, questions are being raised about a lack of consequences for the men who benefitted from Maxwell’s behavior. Former President Bill Clinton was one of them and visited Epstein’s private island, where much of the abuse took place, multiple times.
Don’t Shut Down Sports Again for Covid
Let the games go on; give a citizenry starving for a modicum of normalcy to return to their lives something to rally around. Sports at its best can be a unifying phenomenon.
America’s Christmas Present Is the Death of the Dems’ Dream
Kurt Schlichter: If you survey the charred ruins of the progressives’ hopes and dreams, you will need to have a heart of stone not to burst into hysterical laughter at their pain. They were so close, so very close, and their heart’s desire was ripped from them by a senator from a sane state who had zero desire to commit ritual, political suicide to please the brother-curious likes of Ilhan Omar.
Inflation Devastation for the Dems
The people who rule you and who hate you love this. Inflation is a punishment for you existing. You should not be driving – free people drive. Nor should you be eating food you like – that’s a prerogative of free people too. To deny you the ability to do these things is part of the point. You must be conditioned to accept less, to take what you are given – by them. You know, your masters.
There Is No Secret Plan to Fight Covid
Ronna McDaniel: Tragically, more Americans have died from Covid-19 on Biden’s watch than in all of 2020—and the year isn’t even over. While the death toll rises, workers and businesses are struggling because of Biden’s policies —despite his promise to beat the virus without jeopardizing the economy.
Tell the Establishment “No Intervention in Ukraine”
Kurt Schlichter: What do the krauts do when a flurry of hypersonics turns Ramstein airbase into a smoking wasteland? The strudel munchers are going to be terrified and whoever just replaced Merkel is going to tell us we can’t fight from German territory anymore – watch it happen.
Men Make the Best Women
When it comes to sports, men make the best women. When it comes to life, for most of us women make the best women, but whatever you’re into is up to you. However, no matter how insistent leftists get, reality is not dependent upon your belief in it.
The Woke-Off to Replace Chris Cuomo
CNN has uniquely positioned itself to have a deep bench of people willing to say dumb things with a straight face. The king, of course, is Jim Acosta…The former White House correspondent now demoted to weekend host has been waiting his whole life for this moment. No one has burned more calories spewing stupid to a willing audience than Jim.
CNN Managed to Finally Do Right in Firing Cuomo and Still Managed to Get So Much Wrong
CNN in general, and Brian Stelter in particular, love to hurl accusations at Fox News for supposedly lacking media propriety. Yet all the while we have learned they were engaging in the very actions they claim to deplore, and they defended and hid the realities when the violations came to light.
Radical Environmentalism Poses Grave Threat to True Conservation Efforts
Take raging wildfires out West. A lack of forest management, due to preservationist policies, has led to the destruction of nearly 20 percent of sequoia trees in the last two years. That’s unconscionable.
Why Most People Shrug Off Omicron
Kurt Schlichter: The total failure of our establishment to earn our trust over the last two years of this pandemic made it inevitable that a huge number of people, at best, don’t care, and at worst think it’s a calculated lie designed to prolong this nonsense. The Covidians are positively turgid over the idea of more mandates, more lockdowns, more masks, and more viro-fascism.
The Real Issue with the Chris Cuomo Scandal Is CNN
The permissiveness shown to the likes of Cuomo and Jeffrey Toobin this year means the coverage they provide is impacted. When CNN’s media reporter Brian Stelter and others try to impugn Fox News over journalistic ethics, their calls are impotent considering the integrity damage they have self-inflicted. Instead of addressing the problem and dealing with Cuomo’s actions, he is allowed to stay in place, and as a result, so is CNN’s diminished import.
Progressives Are Lucky to Have Kyrsten Sinema
The left despises her obstructionist views that do not allow the Biden administration, and the Democrats, to get everything they want. But anyone who has ever listened to her speeches knows that Sinema has always been “Independent, like Arizona.”
