Have you noticed – I’m sure you have – that Donald Trump constantly deals in superlatives? Positive ones and negative ones. People he is talking up are “fantastic”, “incredible”, etc. And people he is talking down are “failed”, “losers”, etc. There’s no in-between. Speaking this way destroys his credibility, because it...

I love that sarcastic line – which I first saw used by the late, great (though we often disagreed) columnist, Harriet Van Horne. But I don’t recall ever using it for anything I had good feelings about. And, believe me, this isn’t going to be the first time. From Lemor Abrams’ article for CBS News – Los Angeles: Davis Imam Apologizes After Fiery Sermon Draws...
NOTE: This blog keeps changing, because the reports keep changing. Here is the latest version: Anthony Scaramucci has resigned from – or possibly been fired from – his position as White House Communications Chief , less than two weeks after being introduced as the holder of that position and just a few days after his profanity-laden comments about Reince Priebus and Steve...
Broward County, Florida. A hotbed of Democrat politics. And nary an instance of voter fraud, right? Uh…. Excerpted from Larry Barszewski’s illuminating, and telling, article in the Orlando Sun-Sentinel: Broward County could have thousands of ineligible voters on its rolls, increasing the risk of voter fraud, because its election officials don’t do enough to keep the lists...
With a major tip of my imaginary hat to the folks at newsbusters.org… …here are are two more links to articles written by their staff and published today that explain the above title fully: CNN’s Zakaria: Trump Won Because of Bigots: Alex Xenos CNN’s Stelter Offers No Pushback as Brinkley Loses Mind, Links Trump to Franco and Mussolini: Curtis Houck Is this at all atypical...
The reason for that title? Watch this video, pulled from WISN-Chicago’s website – it should be self-explanatory. Gee golly gosh. You scream out that someone sucks, and then insult him a second time when he’s within range…and – can you believe it – the guy you’re insulting takes offense. I love that line “I remained calm, and said I was...
Today, we have two quotes of the day. The first’s comes to us from Rep. Ron DeSantis (R-FL). It concerns the huge – and growing – awan scandal – which mainstream media, displaying a level of absurdity that even they will soon be ashamed of – continue trying to bury. Says Rep. DeSantis: “In addition to the criminal case that is now underway, Congress needs to get...
Former Venezuelan President, nicolas maduro, has done it. By “virtue” (odd word to use here) of a sham election, which members of opposition parties boycotted, and as few as 9% of the people actually voted in, maduras has summarily removed the National Assembly (Venezuelan congress) and replaced it with a “Constituent Assembly” – comprised 100% of members selected...
Apropos of nothing political… I would like thank the driver of that red sports car, with the license ROKAGES, for passing me on the right and coming within a foot or less of clipping my car (he would have if I didn’t brake) while fitting himself between me and the car in front of him in the middle lane – at a speed I would estimate at about 20 -25MPH over the speed...
From Mary Claire Jalonick’s article for the Associated Press, via ABC News: Clinton lost, but Republicans still want to investigate her Democrat Hillary Clinton lost the 2016 election to President Donald Trump, but some Republicans in Congress are intensifying their calls to investigate her and other Obama administration officials. Can someone show me the statute which says that if a...
The awan scandal – it grows by the minute. Read this excerpt from the latest article by Andrew McCarthy, writing for National Review, and see for yourself: Over the years, family members were paid millions of dollars, and there are allegations of fraud, property theft, and potential swiping of information to which they had access on the House IT network. The entire story merits attention...
Trust me when I tell you I do not want the United States involved in a war of any kind. But North Korea’s lunatic-in-charge, kim jung-un, is deperately trying to force us into one. And he might succeed. From Jon Lockett’s article at London’s Daily Sun: Senior military sources in Washington have reportedly claimed Pentagon officials have laid out plans to obliterate a nuclear...
Nope. He did not. But look at how fast some Trump haters jumped all over the false claim – even if the most basic checking would show it was not true. From Tom Blumer’s article at newsbusters.org: In a since-deleted tweet, an aide to Washington State Democratic Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal claimed that President Donald Trump had ignored a “child in (a) wheelchair” who...
That was some operation James Comey was running. Excerpted from Sara A. Carter’s article at circa.com: The FBI’s top lawyer is allegedly under investigation for purportedly leaking classified material featured in a Reuters report last year that disclosed a top-secret U.S. surveillance program built by Yahoo Inc, according to several government officials with knowledge of the...
Not so long ago, I thought the Trump/Russia “collusion” story – a no- evidence invention of Democrat strategists which is being treated as major news every day, while the Clinton people’s fully-evidenced collusion with Ukrainian nationals is buried – was the single most blatant demonstration of media bias I have seen in recent years. But, although it remains a...
