Everybody knows that Democrats are in a pickle, which I suppose is better than outright rotting. At least pickles are being preserved for later consumption. Even without all the doubt about Trump’s policies and the unrelenting attacks on the president by the media and his opponents–who include almost every major culturally significant figure in the...
I can only assume this is an indictment of blue state governance in general. In one place where it happened, you hear about such things often with an overwhelmed and officially castrated police force trying ineffectually, if at all, to keep the mayhem as contained as possible. Risking life and limb on the scene while...
If Democrats and the New York Times really want to correct their “cultural rejection,” Donald Trump just handed them a golden opportunity. Will Gavin Newsom take it? It’s not as if Newsom can’t recognize the moment. Ever since Donald Trump won election to a second term as president, Newsom has tied himself in knots to...
I dunno. Maybe stop trying to impose radical cultural notions on voters who keep insisting on rejecting them? Maybe start with Latinx and move outward? Just a thought! Anyway, first one has to accept the obvious, and neither Democrats nor the New York Times have gotten to that stage on the Kübler-Ross process. In fact,...
A lot of people I know, coming from the upper-crust of the educated class, are deeply disturbed that President Trump’s administration is picking a fight with Harvard over its civil rights violations and cooperation with China’s government. Unfortunately, while few of these people would deny that Harvard has made a few “mistakes” in dealing with...
A Christian group in Seattle held a concert and prayer meeting in a Seattle park. They had a permit, were totally peaceful, and gathered together to pray for the end of alphabet ideology harming children. Nobody was masked, there was no hate speech, and the goal was to call on Jesus and all good people...
Oh, this is ghastly. And Lord almighty – what a classic British police statement. Police are responding to an incident near the Liverpool Football Club parade after a car collided with several pedestrians. The incident happened as thousands of fans lined the streets of the city to celebrate Liverpool’s Premier League title victory. A police...
Actions, we know, have consequences. And a committed Marxist’s cold-blooded murder of two Israeli embassy staffers in Washington, D.C. Wednesday night was the natural and inevitable consequence of a conscientious, yearslong campaign to dehumanize Jews and otherize all supporters of the world’s only Jewish state. Seriously, what...
Others and I have been referring to the years-long campaign to convince Americans that Joe Biden actually WAS President of the United States as a cover-up. I think that is wrong, although a great way to limit the damage to anybody outside the Biden inner circle. As long as the media and the Establishment can...
Is this yet another version of the Hamas Hokey Pokey? Or has the threat of a popular uprising in Gaza convinced Hamas to look for the least humiliating option short of Götterdämmerung? Maybe both? Hamas has agreed to a Gaza ceasefire proposal it attributed to US special envoy Steve Witkoff for a Gaza ceasefire, a...
Dear Jake Tapper, You co-wrote a new book in which you brazenly accuse the Biden administration of orchestrating a “cover-up” to conceal the former president’s cognitive decline. But you were complicit. You played a major role. Why did Democrats and media co-conspirators, like...
Ah, these Mondays. These Memorial Day Mondays. Honoring the sacrifice of so many and remembering what conflicts, large and small, have cost us in the nation’s blood and treasure. There are so many beautiful places of honor where many of them now rest. NAS Pensacola has a National Cemetery. When we first moved here, it...
Now that Texas and South Carolina have passed school choice bills, parents will be able to choose the best school for their kids in 17 states. Why not all states? After all, competition improves services. The Post Office couldn’t...
This morning’s Gospel reading is John 14:23–29: Jesus said to his disciples: “Whoever loves me will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our dwelling with him. Whoever does not love me does not keep my words; yet the word you hear is not mine...
Here’s an economics lesson that belongs in the textbooks. Student loan debt soared to more than $1.5 trillion during the Biden presidency, and the response by Washington was to “forgive” hundreds of billions of these unpaid loans by deadbeat borrowers and let the taxpayers pick up the...
