Donald Trump Fires Back At Rand Paul

Rand Paul slammed Donald Trump as a “fake conservative” in an article at The Journal this week and, naturally, The Donald took to Twitter to slam Paul right back. Rand wrote that Donald Trump is no conservative. “I honestly have no idea what Mr. Trump’s real philosophy is. He was liberal before he was conservative, […]

Jihadis in Syria Being Recruited for Suicide Missions to Blow Up Airliners Over Western Cities

We’ve become fairly cavalier about terrorism, especially since Barack Obama took office, thinking that something like 9/11 will never happen again. But considering what British jihadis in Syria are planning, that could be a deadly mistake. Britons fighting for militant groups in Syria are being targeted to smuggle explosives on to Western airliners and become […]

A Debatable ‘Debate’

The so-called “debates,” among too many Republicans to have a debate, are yet another painful sign of how much words and ideas have degenerated in our times. No one expects these televised sound bites and “gotcha” questions to be anything like the historic Lincoln-Douglas debates on the momentous national issue of slavery. But the mob […]

Establishment Must Quit Obsessing Over Trump

It’s time that the sophisticated analysts who pride themselves in their ability to discern nuance realized that Donald Trump’s popularity and his defenders are more nuanced than most people imagine.

(For the information of my readers, I made a Prager University […]

“Conservatives Furious at Fox, Say Trump Wasn’t Treated Fairly,” read the Newsmax headline Friday. Talk-radio show host Mark Levin told Breitbart News it was “outrageous” that moderator Megyn Kelly questioned Donald Trump about his coarse language — “fat pigs, dogs, slobs” — referring to women. Levin complained it was “a National Enquirer debate, not a […]

Death blow from Megyn Kelly already taking effect on Trump

There is no cure for the Touch of Death, or Dim Mak as it’s known in those cheesy martial arts movies. Legend and comic books tell us that it is a precise and forceful strike, with delayed yet fatal result, sometimes taking days or weeks to do its work. It is subtle, quick, almost unseen, […]

The Strange ‘Black Lives Matter’ Movement

The Black Lives Matter movement is a bizarre new phenomenon that doesn’t make a whole lot of sense. Instead of addressing real issues of racism, the activists focus on a few incidents where a black person has gotten into a deadly confrontation with law enforcement — but where there doesn’t appear to have been any […]
