Political stunts are generally stupid – and performed by people desperate for attention who want to change the subject. The planning meetings usually involve panic and a mad scramble for ideas, any ideas. This is what a frenzied group of people (in over their heads) thinks will work.
Earlier this week President Joe Biden took a trip to Virginia, and while there – of all things – he used the appearance to liken the GOP Gubernatorial Candidate Glenn Youngkin to Jan. 6 rioters, to lie about Republicans supporting "book bans," and to attempt to goad former President Donald Trump into coming to Virginia. All Joe Biden wants to talk about these days is one person , and it isn't Joe Biden.
It's open enrollment season for Medicare, and Local TV Stations and Cable Networks are flooded with ads for various insurance supplements sold aging celebrities like quarterback Joe Namath. Notice the use of certain words, and how they also are used by politicians to dupe people into believing they are not getting what they "deserve" because "the rich" are not paying their "fair share" in taxes.
The Democrats have put up a candidate for Seattle City Attorney so insane that a #WalkAway “Back the Blue” Republican is widely expected to win the race next month.
The worst inflation in 30 years – that seems ready to soon match Jimmy Carter’s 1970-era levels?
Democrats tell Republicans and conservatives they can not impose their beliefs through government – but they themselves have no problem imposing misinterpretations of Scripture (and even non-beliefs) through government and judicial fiat. Now, Kamala Harris – currently in the witness protection program as "Czar" of restoring our Southern Border – has sent a video to 300 Black churches in Virginia to influence the governor's election there.
As I have noted repeatedly, liberalism and leftism have virtually nothing in common. In fact, leftism is the enemy of liberalism — as a handful of liberals such as former New York Times writer Bari Weiss, former Young Turk Dave Rubin, and others have come to recognize.
By its very nature, cancel culture is joyless and lifeless. It is built on negativity, criticism, and fault-finding. In the long term, it cannot be sustained.
For some reason, Members of Congress, President Biden, and the IRS are increasingly concerned that you're committing tax fraud – so they want your banks to throw you against the wall. Commonly called Terry stops or "stop-and-frisk," became routine in New York City in the 1990s. Now Democrats intend to deploy them to your bank account. We are all suspects now.
Cancel culture has reared its ugly head once again, and this time in a new and unprecedented way. The latest example? A lecture by a physicist at MIT was canceled NOT FOR reasons having to do with the subject matter or its scientific content, but because of the politically incorrect views on diversity of the scientist scheduled to give the lecture.
I don’t want anyone telling me how to live my life. So honestly, if the country split up I wouldn’t miss anything that "The Left" brings to the table. Since Biden & the Democrats are headed in that direction anyway, we might as well just do it – Better to have a planned break up than be blindsided and bathed in violence, right?
The beauty of the “Let’s Go, Brandon” meme sweeping the nation is not only how it captures the utter contempt that America has for our president – who's currently polling about as well as Michael Moore would among Golden Corral managers – but how it captures what is either unbelievable cluelessness among the media, or unbelievable mendacity.
In the years running up to the 2020 Election, I posited that the Democrat Party was doing all it could to keep their mob angry, but only to a certain point. Now their objective has changed… slightly. Democrats appear to be doing all they can to provoke violence against their own. Anything – absolutely anything – for the cause.
Only a little more than half of the current world's 7 billion people are citizens of fully consensual governments. That lucky 50 percent alone enjoys constitutionally protected freedoms. Most are also Western. Or at least they reside in nations that have become "Westernized."
I'm one of the few white conservatives in America who grew up in a majority-black urban city and attended an all-black middle school and all-black high school. So, I grew up with an understanding and appreciation of Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. and his extraordinary ideas and strategies – in particular, civil disobedience.
There’s something satisfying about seeing Democrat Liberals in a Slap Fight with each other – you just want to grab up a bowl of popcorn, pop some brews and egg them on. We’ll see more and more battles between the unsatiated elements of the Democrat coalition, and as conservatives, we just need stay out of it. Let them pummel each other. Let them rip each other apart. Let them fight!
We still don't know even half of what's in the two massive spending bills circulating through Congress – because as Rep. Richard Neal, the head of the House Committee writing the bills admits, we want to "hold off on the (details of the bill) until we're at the altar." By this he means the same thing Nancy Pelosi said before ObamaCare's vote some 10 years ago: We'll read the bill after we pass it.
There are generally three types of politicians. The first is the AOC type. The second consists of those who get into office and then compromise with the other side, the John Kasich types. The third get a lot done in line with their principles, usually quietly so they can get more done without being noticed. Arizona AG Mark Brnovich is the third type.
Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman, Gen. Mark Milley, is a disgrace to his uniform. If he had any integrity, he’d resign. The top military advisor to the President of the United States pledged to an enemy of our country, to an enemy of freedom, that he'd tip him off should the United States, for whatever reason, attack China. Milley intentionally put U.S. Troops in jeopardy. That’s treason.
George W. Bush reaffirmed his status as garbage last week, for those few cons still in doubt.
