Minnesota Declares War!
I’ve wondered for years how our next civil war would start. In my wildest dreams, I did not expect the guy who’s highest priority is universal access to feminine hygiene products, to start it.
John Green
Karma Comes for Nicolás Maduro
Well, we got him – Nicolás Maduro that is. Now what do we do with him? How do we deliver justice, with a system which is demonstrably unreliable at the business of “equal justice under law”?
Let’s Not Cede the Asylum to the Lunatics this Year
Only the insane could think that battle victories in the war on drugs and the war on terrorism are bad things. Unfortunately, that is our national dilemma. Lunatics vote too.
Einstein’s Normalcy Gyroscope Is Spinning Down
As the McCarthy communism snipe hunt of the 1950s came to an end, Albert Einstein wrote a hopeful letter to his son. He was amazed that America seemed to have a “gyroscope” (his word), and every time the country seemed on the verge of being consumed by political passions, the country magically returned to normalcy.
California Is as California Does
Happy New Year! We’re closing out another year, so it’s time to take stock of the past, and go out on a limb with a few predictions about the future – with special attention to California.
What Exactly Is “The Resistance” Resisting?
“The Resistance” is highly organized, fully mobilized, and tactically engaged. The commies claim that it’s to “save democracy” from the tyranny of Donald Trump. But that’s about as honest as their claim that men can be women, Palestinians are misunderstood, and morality if relative.
Is Socialism Built into the AI Programming?
As we hand over more control of our lives to soulless machines, I hope the programmers have included a little something to protect humanity from the T-1000 scenario.
Arctic Frost: An Imposter Goes Ice Fishing
Something funny happened before Jack Smith’s coronation as hero of the resistance. Florida District Judge Aileen Cannon ruled that Smith had not been legally appointed, and dismissed the charges against Trump. That raises rather interesting immunity questions.
Trump’s Incivility Towards One is Defense of Another
President Trump understands something that President Bush never did. Civility to one’s enemies, taken too far, becomes betrayal of one’s allies.
The Day I Met Keith Ellison
As the media belatedly notices the Somali taxpayer hustle in the land of 10,000 lakes, it has come to light that the state’s top law enforcement official, AG Ellison, is associated with the thieves.
The Gerrymander War Has Begun
Would you like your congressman to represent your interests? Unfortunately, far too many politicians have other ideas, and they’re using gerrymandering to pursue what THEY want rather than what WE want.
Socialism: A Violation of the 10th Commandment
Of the 10 things God told the Israelites not to do, which no-no is the most socially destructive? I’m not asking which sin is the evilest. I’m asking which sin has been the most demonstrably destructive to human attempts at civilization.
I See a New York Bailout in the Future
Here we go. New York City has decided to go full-on Bolshevik. The citizens of the Big Apple decided they wanted free stuff more than freedom.
Are Elections Still the Path to Good Governance?
f our elections have been corrupted, can we vote our way back into good governance? Trust in elections is critical, because a peaceful transfer of power depends on broad acceptance of election results. Yet trust is slipping, because there is ample reason to remain suspicious.
Our Civil War Just Went Hot
A couple of years ago I started pondering: What will the last straw be? What will launch us into our next bloody civil war – national choice by violence? It was a really stupid thought experiment – based on the wrong premise.
Is Political Engagement a Moral Imperative for the Faithful?
Most churches loath getting involved in politics – and not only because it jeopardizes their tax-exempt status. They understandably prefer to focus their efforts on matters of the soul rather than of the body.
How About No Kings in the Judiciary?
Last month we experienced a weekend of protest. Apparently, the protesters don’t want America to be ruled by kings. But the protesters seemed unconcerned about unelected government officials who are acting more like kings every day — our federal judges.
Congress Can Do More Than Impeach Judges
Wouldn’t it be fun to watch the televised testimony of Judge Boasberg as he asserts his 5th amendment right against self-incrimination, or has more memory recall problems than Joe Biden before his afternoon nap?
Chuck Schumer Follows Joe Biden into the Dustbin of History
The commies, who are the ideological soul of the Democrat party, demanded war with MAGA. Devoted worker bee Chucky Schumer gave the collective what he thought they wanted. Only now the commies are sharpening their knives and debating who will get to shiv Chucky first.
Lawfare vs. law enforcement and Trump vs. Biden
The Dems are absolutely freaking out about the investigations and indictments of everyone involved in telling us we don’t get to elect who we want. In one of the most brazen examples of projection I have ever seen, the Dems are accusing President Trump of trying to be a king.
