She Started Flirting With Border Police… Then THIS Happened

This Mexican-born Instragram model had a secret, and in efforts to cross the border into the United States undetected, she started to flirt with the patrol officers, but her excessiveness made the officers grow suspicious– then this happened next… When they pulled the model over and searched her Mercedes-Benz, they found $134,000 worth of cocaine […]

Donald Trump and the Three Types of Stupid Mistake

We all make dumb mistakes sometimes. A Scientific American piece entitled “The Psychology of the Breathtakingly Stupid Mistake” makes interesting reading in light of Donald Trump’s recent success. According to researchers, “there are three distinct types of action that bring palm to face”: The first is when a person’s confidence outstrips their skill… [e.g.], when […]

CNN Panel’s ONLY White Guest Calls Beyonce RACIST- Leaves Others Speechless, Then THIS Happens…

Beyonce’s performance at the Super Bowl was shameful, divisive and undoubtedly racist. Still, race relations in America are so tense that even suggesting that the Black Panther-loving singer is racist prompts flagrant disrespect from supposed experts. Check out the video below and consider in how low a regard legitimate discussion is held. A CNN panel […]

Trump’s Lies Don’t Seem to Matter

Complaining about Donald Trump seems to some like sour grapes. I know it appears this way, but it’s not. Sure I say I’m a Cruz guy, but I’m really a Constitution guy. If anyone running was closer to the idea of upholding the Constitution, I would be their guy. It’s not a matter of sour […]

Winners and Losers of the CNN Debate

There were two problems with the CNN debate. First of all, they allowed John Kasich and Ben Carson on the stage even though they are both completely out of it. The other problem was that Wolf Blitzer was pretty clearly favoring Trump and worked very hard to save him from the beating that Rubio and […]

The Tough Choices Of Overseas Intervention

The United States has targeted a lot of rogues and their regimes in recent decades: Muammar Gadhafi, Saddam Hussein, Slobodan Milosevic, Mohamed Farrah Aidid, Manuel Noriega and the Taliban. As a general rule over the last 100 years, any time the U.S. has bombed or intervened and then abruptly left the targeted country, chaos has […]

The Schumer-Biden test

Everyone knows the meaning of the word “hypocrite” and no one can claim absolute constancy when it comes to living a life consistent with one’s stated values. But in this election year, hypocrisy is on full display. It is now being practiced with neither shame nor irony by leading Democrats, who once forcefully argued positions […]

The Twitter Police Target Conservatives

This month, Twitter announced it has a Trust and Safety Council because, as CEO Jack Dorsey tweeted, “Twitter stands for freedom of expression, speaking truth to power, and empowering dialogue. That starts with safety.” Apparently the social media platform’s powerful CEO hasn’t figured out that when you pat yourself on the back for speaking truth […]

An Escalating War on Cash

On February 16th, The Washington Post printed the article, “It’s time to kill the $100 bill.” This came on the heels of a CNNMoney item, the day before, entitled “Death of the 500 euro bill getting closer.” The former cited a recent Harvard Kennedy School working paper, No. 52 by Senior Fellow Peter Sands, concluding […]

How the Affordable Care Act Continues to Fall Short

Of the seven main candidates running for president, only one wants to keep the Affordable Care Act in place: the Democratic kind-of-front-runner Hillary Clinton. Everyone else wants to get rid of it. Most Republicans would replace it by returning health insurance regulation to the states, although they would also lock in much of the ACA’s […]

February Clarifies Both Parties’ Nomination Races

In 2008, Barack Obama’s great victories in February primaries — Georgia, Illinois, Maryland, Virginia and Wisconsin — gave him an unstoppable delegate lead for the Democratic nomination. In 2012, Mitt Romney’s wins in Florida (technically on Jan. 31) and Michigan sent him on his way to the Republican nomination. This year, with the foreshortened schedule, […]
