Oprah Will Run in 2020 Because All the Other Democratic Candidates Are Even Worse
Kurt Schlicter: Elizabeth Warren wants to keep resisting. Oprah’s secret is her unspoken promise of a return to normalcy, of calm and quiet. But, of course, that’s a lie. Oprah will be an activist liberal and will put a bull’s eye on those of us who refuse to fawn and applaud.
The Virtue-Signaling Anti-Virtue Crowd
Ben Shapiro: Hollywood isn’t doing anything to materially change its culture; it’s simply operating out of fear of public scrutiny. When the spotlight moves on, people in Hollywood will go right back to doing what they’ve been doing for years: exploiting people less powerful than them.
Who Are You Calling a Moron?
Stephen Moore: As my mother would say: If Trump is such an idiot, what does this say about the intelligence quotient of the elites on the left whom he keeps outsmarting?
“Fire and Fury” Will Polarize the Nation

“Fire and Fury” Is Much Ado About Nothing New

Trump Is Still Standing and Standing Tall at That
Michael Brown: Despite calls for his impeachment (and even death), despite claims that he was losing his health, his mind, and his grip, despite an unprecedented media bombardment, and despite his own gaffes and missteps, the president seems stronger than ever, with a sense of momentum entering the new year.
The Democrats Just Discriminated Against Homeschoolers and Children with Disabilities

What JFK and Trump Have in Common
Stephen Moore: In 1963 Kennedy proposed a tax cut that slashed business and individual tax rates by about 30 percent. It’s true that tax rates were a lot higher then (90 percent in some cases) than now. But the philosophy was the same: Lower taxes will get businesses, investors and consumers going again and jump-start a lackluster economy.

The Media’s Democratic Ties
During the Obama Administration, many members of the media floated in and out of the administration and in and out of leftwing blogs and think tanks. They are still around with many of them serving as reporters and their leftwing friends as active members of the Democrats’ “resistance.”

Returning Jihadists Need Prison, Not Shrinks
Rachel Marsden: Anyone who has been involved in overseas terror operations and who seeks to return to the West now that the jihad party is over should go immediately to jail (to await trial), just like in Monopoly: Do not pass Go, do not collect state-sponsored handouts.
Christmas Came Early This Year for Conservatives
Susan Stamper Brown: With unemployment at a 17-year low and the stock market at an all-time high, 2.2 million new jobs created in eleven months, pro-U.S. Constitution judges packing the justice system, and Planned Parenthood under investigation — it’s fair to say Christmas came early this year.

Mainstream Media Doesn’t Deserve Our Respect or Our Trust
Kurt Schlicter: The heroes of our intrepid mainstream media are a motley collection of pompous and obnoxious incompetents, perverts and – at the risk of repeating myself – liberals. In just the last few days we’ve seen how a major media personality got his network to build him a creepy sex lair in his office and watched as a flat-out lie tanked the stock market – well, not really “tanked,” since the Trump Boom is still booming, though the media is loath to report that fact…
NPR and PBS, the Biggest Harassment Hypocrites
Brent Bozell: How deep is the hypocrisy on the left considering it waited decades to hold sexual harassers in its own taxpayer-funded ideological sandboxes accountable? They don’t deserve one more red cent from taxpaying Americans.
