If you judged Donald Trump by nothing other than his first-term accomplishments, he would deserve to win in a 50-state landslide. He accomplished an awful lot in his first term: 1) The Pre-Corona Economy: Corona would have smashed the economy no matter who was in charge. Before that? It was doing fantastic. More than four […]

The title sounds overly dramatic, doesn’t it? After all, when the Democrats got rid of the filibuster for Executive Branch nominees and judicial candidates, it wasn’t majorly disruptive. It also didn’t seem to be a big deal when Mitch McConnell dropped the rule for Supreme Court Justices in 2017. What is the difference? Well, first […]

I am not woke. Not at all. I don’t disrespect the flag, the anthem, or respect the people that do. If you do disrespect our country, I don’t care what your business or your cause is because you and it can go straight to Hell. Also, don’t add insult to injury by disrespecting the flag […]

“There ain’t no such thing as a free lunch.” — Robert Heinlein Conservatives are all about reality and liberals are all about Santa Claus. Nary a day passes when liberals don’t demand that something else is provided to them for “free.” After ignoring conservatives that pleaded with them not to lockdown the economy over the […]

Increasingly, the United States is not a unified country, a moral country, or a country that continues to do the things that made us successful in the first place. Many Americans who love this country are deeply concerned about the direction we’re going in – and they should be. This is why you are starting […]

“We have now sunk to a depth at which restatement of the obvious is the first duty of intelligent men.”  —  George Orwell “I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.” — By Evelyn Beatrice Hall, but often attributed to Voltaire “The belief that one’s […]

Over the last few days in cities across America, we have seen rampaging mobs of loot, burn & vandalize buildings while they beat law-abiding citizens that get in their way. Unbelievably, the response by the governments and police in many cities where this is going on could best be described as timid, weak and indifferent. […]

In the beginning, when we didn’t know as much as we do now, it’s easy to see how lockdowns might have seemed to make a certain kind of sense in a handful of places. After all, we thought the virus could have a fatality rate as high as 3 or 4% and Italian hospitals were […]

Have you heard the news? The Minneapolis City Council has voted UNANIMOUSLY to disband the city’s police department. Now some of you reactionary, non-woke conservatives may think that’s a terrible idea. After all, part of Minneapolis already looks like a war zone and that’s WITH the police on the job. If this is what Minneapolis […]

“To be free is better than to be unfree always. Any politician who suggests the opposite should be treated as suspect.” — Margaret Thatcher “If there is ever a fascist takeover in America, it will come not in the form of storm troopers kicking down doors but with lawyers and social workers saying. ‘I’m from […]

Long story short, Ahmaud Arbery was in a neighborhood in Georgia. Apparently, he walked into an empty house under construction and looked around and then was shortly thereafter seen running down the street. Was he jogging? Was he running for some other reason? We don’t know for sure, but some local geniuses, one of whom […]

When the Coronavirus outbreak started in the US, there were two hotspots. Washington on the West Coast and New York on the East Coast. Some people have speculated that Washingon actually had the Coronavirus months before the rest of the country and it had spread in the wild there. Whatever the case may be, that […]

I’ve been a voracious reader since I was a small child and I’ve read more than 2,000 books in my life. Self-help, psychology, horror, fantasy, history, health, longevity, biographies, politics, fiction, business – I’ve ripped through numerous books in all those categories. Consuming all those books had a lot of benefits including the fact that […]

1) Our government lacks basic competence, even in comparison to other governments: Everyone with half a brain knows that comparing the private sector to the government is like comparing flying cross country to driving cross country. That being said, if you are driving cross country, you’re much better off driving a new BMW than a […]

Although I’m definitely in the, “Don’t ask God to make your life easier, ask Him to make you stronger” camp, it seemed worthwhile in our victimhood obsessed society to give some perspective on a post that caught my eye: Why is it so competitive just to exist? I’ve applied to 300+ places in my city […]

If you go to the Grand Canyon, you may be surprised to find that it’s split between a more regulated, safer “government” side with guardrails and an “Indian” side, where you can walk right up to the edge with no impediments. If you’re a tourist, I’d say the Indian side is more fun. It’s also […]

Let’s get this out of the way. OF COURSE, Donald Trump shouldn’t have asked the Ukraine to investigate his political opponent while holding up their aid. It was obviously wrong to do for the same reason it would have been improper for Barack Obama to lift sanctions on Iran in exchange for a Falafel chain […]

“Because, for all the good news being published today, here are some other surprising statistics: in the United States, symptoms of depression and anxiety are on an eighty-year upswing among young people and a twenty-year upswing among the adult population. Not only are people experiencing depression in greater numbers, but they’re experiencing it at earlier […]

1) Everything we need to know about global warming can be learned from a 16-year-old girl with Asperger’s and a famously ignorant former bartender who was just elected to Congress. 2) Of all the people we could have influencing children in our society, it makes the most sense to have drag queens reading to kids in libraries. […]

The Democrat front runner Elizabeth Warren has a lot of bad ideas. Fortunately, most of them, like decriminalizing crossing the border illegally or making assault rifles illegal will have legions of people who refute them. But, her wealth tax is a little different. After all, when you start talking about putting a 2% wealth tax […]

Joe Biden has been the front runner in the Democratic primary from the time he got into the race until recently. However, Biden has always been gaffe-prone, has never inspired passion and doesn’t seem to have any message other than “vote for me because I am electable.” As the primary has gone on, the activist […]

The most noteworthy thing about the global warming “debate” these days is how little of it has anything to do with rationality or science. In that respect, Greta Thunberg is the perfect spokesperson for her side of the debate. She’s a 16-year-old girl with Asperger’s who is depressed, obsessive-compulsive and has selective mutism. Rather notably, […]

From George Washington to Donald Trump, there have been 45 American presidents and out of all the elections they have participated in, there have only been five times where the popular vote did not agree with the electoral college. However, because two of those elections have occurred within the last 20 years (Trump vs. Clinton, […]

When Beto O’Rourke ran for the Senate against Ted Cruz in 2018, he very explicitly said that he had no intentions of trying to grab anyone’s guns: “If you purchased that AR-15, if you own it, keep it. Continue to use it responsibly… If you own a gun, keep that gun. Nobody wants to take […]

Liberals have fallen in love with the idea of censoring people they disagree with via shouting them down, political correctness, violently attacking them in the streets, or denying them a platform to speak. This is profoundly unhealthy, un-American, and bad for the country. Conservatives seem to understand this, but liberals have lost sight of this […]
