Not All US Muslim Soldiers Are Equal

Bronze Star and Purple Heart recipient Captain Humayun Khan died heroically. But his exceptional courage in Iraq and his Muslim father’s post-Democratic convention histrionics on TV do not erase the security threat posed by killer warriors of Allah infiltrating our troops. Don’t take my word for it. Ask all the forgotten Gold Star moms and […]

Beyond Two Evils

Many people dislike both Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton — for good reason: Both are power-hungry threats to democracy and rule of law. But what can we do? What’s the alternative? Fortunately, one political party wants government to have a little (SET ITAL) less (END ITAL) power. Former governors Gary Johnson and William Weld, the […]

Why Hillary’s candidacy is more ‘historic’ now than in 2008

Among the innumerable flip-flops, course corrections and reinventions that have come to define Hillary Clinton’s three decades in public life, perhaps the most interesting one is her decision in 2016 to go all in as the woman-candidate. In 2008, Clinton downplayed her gender. Mark Penn, her chief strategist in that campaign, had a “FWP” (First […]

What economists call an ability to make “compensating differences” is a valuable tool in everyone’s arsenal. If people are prohibited from doing so, they are always worse off. You say, “Williams, I never heard of compensating differences. What are they?” Jimmy Soul’s 1963 hit song, “If You Wanna Be Happy,” explained the concept of compensating […]

The Tax-Shaming Trap

Hillary Clinton and the media are goading Donald Trump again into releasing his tax returns, suggesting he’s unwilling to pay his “fair share.” Sadly, even a few of Trump’s fellow Republicans are piling on. Their crazy premise: Paying the IRS more than you legally owe makes you a better person. That’s nonsense. Donald Trump is […]

Trump Simply Can’t Stop Himself

This week, Donald Trump decided to step on every rake in a 30-mile radius. Fresh off of Hillary Clinton’s pathetic display of insanely soporific robotics — she really is remarkably lifelike for an evil cyborg sent from the future to kill Sarah Connor — Trump decided to redirect the news cycle. He did so by […]

Lawyer Claims Mom Who Sexually Abused Girl Shouldn’t Be Jailed Because Of Her Shame As A Muslim

Muslims living in the West have become quite skilled at manipulating Western senses of “tolerance.” Europe is crawling with sexual predators from the Middle East and these heinous monsters use the “I’m Muslim” mantra to routinely escape consequences that would land anyone else in prison. In keeping with this ridiculousness, a Muslim woman is claiming […]
