Politics and Military Service

Tim Walz exaggerated his military rank and decided not to deploy to Iraq with the unit he once helped lead. He made up combat experience. JD Vance called him out, leaning back onto his own record as a Marine deployed to bloody Anbar province during the Iraq War and actual experience outside the wire. It’s […]

Anti-Democratic Dem Manipulators Strike Again (and Again)

The Democrats continue to run to course — manipulating — most recently, Joe Biden out of the presidential race. Their history for the last decade has been one of manipulation and dirty tricks, false promises and anti-democratic actions. They campaign claiming Trump is out to destroy democracy when at the same time can’t seem to […]

Biden’s Immigration Obsession Floods U.S. with Migrants, Kamala with Troubles

Immigration ranks as one of the top three issues affecting voter opinion (Biden’s age was number 1, immigration number 2, and inflation/economy in third place.) There’s little more Biden can do about number 1, and little he seems to want to do about number 3, but on immigration Joe will leave quite a record for […]

The Real Problem with Biden’s Age

I was only a little surprised by Biden’s debate performance, and on first glance thought it just mediocre, certainly not cause for a crisis. But that’s because I consume too much alternate media, and had seen the endless string of viral clips of Biden falling down the main stairs of Air Force One (and being […]

The One About Biden’s Age

The big problem for Joe Biden is two problems: the first is about his age and ability to be president and the second, getting around the fact the White House, abetted by the MSM, has been lying for years ago about the first problem. Some 85 percent of voters think Biden is too old to […]

Can the President Now Kill Americans?

Never mind the Supreme Court and immunity, he’s had the power to kill an American citizen since 2010. Justice Sotomayor, in her dissent from the majority decison in Trump v. United States to grant the president immunity from criminal prosecution for official acts he commits while in office, wrote: “The long-term consequences of today’s decison […]

SCOTUS via Fischer Frees Trump from J6 Charges?

This is how lawfare works. The Supreme Court on June 28 likely exonerated 350 of 351 defendants, rebuking Biden’s Department of Justice for abusing an existing law to go after January 6 participants and turn them into felons. You wanna guess who the one last defendant still in trouble is? (JUDE: Some draw from here.) […]

Trump Wants Free Green Cards for Every College Grad

In a move which both is self-defeating and which exposes the fundamental problem with America’s immigration system, Donald Trump proposed “automatically” giving green cards to foreign nationals who graduate from a U.S. college. A Trump spokesperson clarified the offer to include both two-year and junior colleges, and to include every foreign student except those who […]

Misdirection! Hunter Biden Conviction Hides the Real Crimes

Misdirection. That’s what you call it when a magician distracts you from looking at the real point of interest, waving his right hand in the air vigorously while his left slips the selected card into his jacket pocket. You’re fooled, but you’re satisfied. You even play along. Well, if you like magical misdirection, you must […]

Biden’s Southern Border Political Sleight-of-Hand

Joe Biden is playing voters for suckers. He thinks he can snap up their votes with some sleight-of-hand new policy on the southern border. This all comes cynically as the border is emerging as a major issue in the campaign for president; only 28 percent of voters approve of Biden’s handling of the matter so […]
