Fair Warnings With A Smile

Yes, the speech certainly had some dark moments. But for all the Progressives clutching their collective pearls, a thought:  you did this. You did this when you used US domestic and foreign intelligence services to surveil the first Donald Trump campaign and to try to hamstring his first administration.  You did this when you enlisted …

Suicide by Fracture

In the early morning hours of January 1, 2025, a Texan named Shamsud-Din Jabbar drove his truck around a police car blocking access to the French Quarter in New Orleans, mowed down dozens of late-night revelers, crashed into a portable crane, emerged from the truck and started shooting passersby.  He was immediately confronted by police, …

Joe’s Dangerous Pardonpalooza

In addition to his title as The Worst President in Modern History – and when you top both Jimmy Carter and Warren G. Harding, that’s a real accomplishment – Joe now has another title:  the Prince of Pardons, the King of Commutations, the Reliever-of-Responsibility-in-Chief. Fifteen hundred so far, and counting.  The highlights include a civic …

Donald Whiffs an Easy One

It wasn’t like Vice-President Harris’ strategy was hard to predict:  vague promises instead of policies, including a boodle of money taken from others to pour over favored groups;  multiple scare attacks on the abortion front; half-truths and outright lies.  It was a risky strategy, because an opponent could use a recitation of fact to shoot …

Selected, Not Elected

Remember “Selected, not elected?”  Yes, the election of 2000, …

Pay No Attention to that Man Behind the Podium

Show Me the Man, I’ll Show You the Crime

So another of former president Trump’s show trials began Monday.  In question is the “hush money” he purportedly paid to porn star Stormy Daniels.  Let’s have a look at what we know. Nevertheless, Alvin Bragg has Donald Trump in court – and off the campaign trail, which was really the whole purpose. And, despite the …

Old Yeller States the Union

Old Yeller was certainly in fine form on Thursday last.  It was a sterling performance: squinty eyes, scowl, jerky mannerisms and the best hey-you-kids-get-off-my-lawn angry old man voice in which to blame Republicans for every problem created by his administration.  Which he did, and facts be damned. It’s now clear why he was so late …
