When President Trump responded to criticism about his use of Twitter, he said “I wouldn’t be where I am today without it.” That struck me as very true. The President owes his success to his ability to speak directly and informally to the American people, without the heavy filter of the news media. Those who […]
The Supreme Court has taken up a case from Washington state on “faithless electors,” that is, electors who pledge to vote for somebody then vote for somebody else. Many states have laws against doing that, and prescribe fines for going rogue. The case is about whether states are permitted to do that. In order to […]
With Time magazine naming 16 year-old Greta Thunberg as their ‘Person of the Year,’ one has to wonder what that means in a world dominated by political correctness and Leftist ideology. Greta is an autistic Swedish child who has been programmed by her parents to promote a children’s crusade against climate change. Never mind that […]
In his famous “Thriller” music video, Michael Jackson said, “I’m not like other guys.” I thank God that President Trump is not like other Republicans. It truly amazes me that many high profile conservatives and Republicans still wish Trump would dial-it-back, don’t be so confrontational and behave more presidential. I feel like saying, “Are you […]
In Donald Trump’s conversation with Ukraine’s president Zelensky on July 25, he asked Zelensky to look into corruption in Ukraine. The issue was corruption, not Hunter Biden. If the corruption had involved somebody named Natty Bumpo, and Trump asked Zelensky to look into it, nobody would have had a second thought about it. Because it […]
Nancy Pelosi was an outspoken opponent of impeaching Donald Trump from day one. She knew it would represent a catastrophic misjudgment on the part of her fellow Democrats, would do nothing but energize Trump’s base, and make defeating him in 2020 an impossibility. But she finally got stampeded into going along with this insanity. She […]
“Laughter is better than complaining.” – paraphrasing a paraphrase of “Anger is better than laughter,” which in the King James Version is “Sorrow is better than laughter” (last week’s column) SOMETHING LOST IN THE TRANSLATION? Not to repeat myself, but the English words anger and sorrow meant the same thing in pre-KJV times. The root […]

There is a lot of wiggle-room that was provided to partisan politicians in Robert Mueller’s statement, a statement made of the US Department of Justice even as he refused to voluntarily speak in front of Congress. Of course, that wiggle-room will super-charge the “I see bigfoot” impeachment crowd. But there are a few problems with […]
Do we really want these intolerant, violent mobs and their representatives running America? Who are the “Antifa” mobs? What are they doing to our country? How long will we tolerate them? The Brett Kavanaugh confirmation hearings were their latest excuse for tantrums and intolerance. Dismissing fairness, propriety and due process, they screamed that mere allegations […]
