Tuesday morning’s lead editorial in The Philadelphia Inquirer is a complaint that President Trump is fighting a war on the truth by claiming that the credentialed media often publish #FakeNews, while at the same time publishing, as an ostensibly ‘straight news’ story that is actually a sob story about a convicted murderer who wants to get out of prison.

Should Nikki Floris Be Tried? Let’s Skip the Word “Treason” and Talk About the Felonies
“I’m basically running a shadow government across the FBI at this point.” That is a real, declassified text message, sent by a real, named federal employee — Nikki Floris (also rendered “Flores” in some captions), then Deputy Assistant Director of the FBI’s Counterintelligence Division and, delightfully, the Bureau’s own designated election security lead for 2020. The colleague she sent it to did not respond with alarm. He responded with a smiley face and “you do what you have to do.” Hang in there.
A Gated Community
Polite society expects everyone to be good and punish those who are not good. Good being defined as living a lifestyle where rewards are earned – not entitlements just for being good. Most western nations compel citizens to earn their own way and charitably help those who struggle. However, liberalism has evolved into treating felons almost like visiting dignitaries, to wit: our own taxpayer-financed penal system. We allow those convicted of heinous crimes to luxuriate in an obligation-free, communist-style gated community with air-conditioning access to TV, college degrees and health privileges that even some of our good citizens don’t have.
A Modest Proposal: Instead of Elections? One-Term Jury Duty Appointments
In his “A Modest Proposal,” Jonathan Swift sarcastically proposed that Ireland swallow its children to solve its most pressing problem.
Here I sincerely propose the United States swallow its elections to solve its most pressing problem.
I’m a results-oriented guy. Which means at some point? The fetishization of process should be ended – if the results of the process are awful.
A Retrospective on 2020 Pennsylvania Election Data Analysis
Immediately after the 2020 election, I was fortunate to be in contact with a group of independent analysts and experts in their respective fields, e.g., statistics, mathematics, computer science, etc., who provided early analysis of publicly available election data sets from Edison Research and other sources. Having remained in frequent contact with several of them to this very day (we regularly discuss election fraud news that breaks through the wall of legacy media obfuscation and lies), we have become good virtual friends – a commonplace occurrence these days.
Not Living Behind Enemy Lines, Tale #105: Armed Texas Community Stands Up To Antifa
In 2020, when Antifa came out from Dallas to try to tear down a statue at the old county courthouse in Parker County, Texas, the residents of this area showed up with rifles and shotguns to dissuade them from doing that. The police did not try to stop the residents.
At what point do the media give up on a criminal-loving and police-hating prosecutor?
We have frequently noted The Philadelphia Inquirer’s seemingly unqualified support for the city’s George Soros-sponsored — $1.7 million in 2017 and $1.2 million in 2021 — criminal-loving, police-hating District Attorney, Larry Krasner, but even the Inky has been unable to avoid covering the news about Mr Krasner’s problems. The newspaper said of Mr Krasner, in …
The Optimist’s Guide to the Present: Pineapples Are Involved
The complainers speak in all caps sometimes.
“AMERICA IS FALLING APART,” they often say. “THINGS ARE WORSE NOW THAN EVER BEFORE.”
But just because something was typed in capital letters doesn’t make it true.
The Boasberg boomerang: He inadvertently led Trump to a court that may expedite deportations
Sometimes a swamp critter acts too smart for his own good. And so it goes with the Dishonorable Judge Jimmy the Geek Boasberg, who mocked the Department of Justice in a hearing on March 21, 2025, in which the ACLU claimed that the government violated a previous order by Boasberg not to deport 100 members of the Venezuelan gang TdA.
Yes, we disagree with Democrats, but I never thought that they could be this stupid
It has been said that presidential candidates like to pick vice presidential running mates who will not overshadow them, and such is frequently done by picking running mates who are dumber than them. Yes, I know: I have used that opening line before, and yes, I used it in reference to Governor Tim Walz of …

You in a heap o’ trouble, girl!
There’s a popular internet meme that we used to think a lack of information made people stupid, but nope, it wasn’t that! We have a wealth of information at our fingertips, but stupid people are still stupid. Public school teachers are supposed to be educated, with at least a baccalaureate degree, and frequently an expectation …

Former Acting DHS Secretary Chad Wolf discusses the White House’s new guidance allowing I.C.E. agents to resume traffic stops if at least one agent is wearing a body camera following recent fatal shootings on ‘America Reports.’
Canucks can get Trump Derangement Syndrome, too!
Our great neighbor to the north is a virtual paradise, or so they would have us believe. Free health care, though you have to wait in months-long lines, strict gun control, way better airports than some of the ones Americans have, Air Canada rather than Delta or United, beautiful, wide-open vistas, across their frozen fruited …
Date Rape Self-Defense Tactic
The “Date Rape Offense Tactic” is an alternative to physically resisting a potential rapist. Screaming, sans nearby saviors, can lead the attacker to punch, choke or otherwise harm you. Facing the prospect of being raped – it’s better to be mentally prepared than have no plan at all.

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo wasn’t really concerned about legality until it seemed like he would get caught!
The credentialed media rarely tell us outright lies, but sometimes you have to look pretty closely to find the parts they don’t want for you to know. From this morning’s Philadelphia Inquirer:
Getting ‘legal status’ in America is harder than most people think. Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was killed by ICE before he could.
A resident of the U.S. for 35 years, the construction worker was fatally shot by ICE agents while still trying to navigate the nation’s arcane immigration system.
