Democrats and their ‘double standards’ on guns
Republican Sen. John Kennedy blasted Democrats for having a "double standard" on guns that goes like this: "If a bad guy shoots a cop, it's the gun's problem; if a cop shoots a bad guy, it's the cop's fault," he said. Great point. The "double standard" goes even deeper, though. Published March 24, 2021
Donald Trump’s brilliant America First social media move
Donald Trump could run for president of the United States for a second term. And who knows, maybe he will. But the better, more beneficial, even brilliant move is the one he's making -- to blow up social media with a new platform. Published March 23, 2021
Anthony Fauci, gag, to be memorialized in kids’ book
Anthony Fauci is going to be featured in a new children's book from Simon & Schuster called, "Dr. Fauci: How a Boy from Brooklyn Became America's Doctor." Gag. A better title? "Anthony Fauci: How a Boy Went From Brooklyn to Bust, in One Deception-Filled COVID-19 Year." Published March 22, 2021
Bill Maher rips ‘Stalinesque’ leftists — no doubt, risking his own cancellation
Bill Maher, host of "Real Time," ripped into the "Stalinesque" cancel culture and woke "brats" of the media, going so far as to tell his Democratic guest, former Sen. Heidi Heitkamp, who tried to blame Republicans, that she was largely wrong -- that the cancel culture was more a thing of the left. Published March 22, 2021
Xavier Becerra, America’s new socialist-in-chief for COVID-19 crackdowns
Xavier Becerra was not "hired" to be the head of the Health and Human Services Department for his medical knowledge. He couldn't be; he has no medical background. Rather, he was brought to that position to be the federal government's pitbull for COVID-19 policy. Published March 20, 2021
Mike Pompeo reminds: ‘1,327 days’
Move over, James Brennan. Stay quiet, Mitt Romney. Stick to Netflix and Bruce Springsteen podcasts Barack Obama. This is how you do a Twitter feed as a former high-ranking member of government. "1,327 days," tweeted Mike Pompeo, secretary of State for President Donald Trump. Published March 19, 2021
Rand Paul gets gold star for taking on Anthony Fauci
In the world of COVID-19, it's the medical bureaucrats who've emerged as the voices who can never be questioned -- and that's a constitutional travesty, pure and simple. America is indeed paying a civil rights' price. So thank goodness for Sen. Rand Paul. Published March 19, 2021
Joe Biden could stop the border breach if he wanted
President Biden is facing a crisis situation at the border, with a reported 13,000 -- and growing -- number of unaccompanied minors in federal custody. And he could stop it. But he won't. He won't even agree that 13,000 unaccompanied children at the border is a crisis. Published March 18, 2021
George Soros, Open Society in hot water in Myanmar
Myanmar reported a staffer affiliated with the Open Society Foundations has been detained on allegations of financial misconduct. This is what happens when billionaire meddlers like George Soros meddle with other nations' governments: They risk angering other nations' governments. Published March 17, 2021
Joe Biden — stop the presses! — to hold news conference
President Biden, through his press secretary Jen Psaki, announced he is going to hold a new conference on, ba dum dum, dum, March 25. The fact this makes national news as an event to promote is an underscore of the weakness of this president. Published March 17, 2021
Democrats on warpath to crumble America
Executive order after executive order. Open borders. Gun control. Trillion dollar stimulus giveaways on top of multitrillion-dollar debt. Now tax hikes? At this rate, by the end of the year, America as we know it will be no more. America the free? Try America like Venezuela. Published March 16, 2021
Joe Biden has created a border mess
President Joe Biden told wanna-be border crossers to wait a bit -- don't come just yet -- and with that, opened the doors wide for border crossers. It's the caveat that counted most. To the masses, the message was: Don't worry; you'll get in. Eventually, you'll get in. Published March 15, 2021
Joe Biden swings into socialist gear with huge tax hike plan
Somebody's got to pay for all this $1.9 trillion and then some stimulus that's being handed to Americans as a means of keeping them home, away from work. Safe from that nasty 99% recovery-rated coronavirus. Right? Published March 15, 2021
Americans may finally be corona-weary
A Morning Consult poll found that for the first time in a year, when the coronavirus hit, more Americans than not feel comfortable eating at a restaurant, inside, at a table, seated among friends and strangers both. America may finally be hitting the stage called corona-weary. Published March 6, 2021
Dr. Seuss censorship sets impossible standard
If Dr. Seuss is the standard by which all authors are to be judged, make way for the book burnings. And bring lots of firewood. Because if Dr. Seuss and his cartoonish characters can't pass the anti-racism muster of the faces of the left, how can Mark Twain's "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn?" Published March 4, 2021
Democrats stage COVID-19 ‘rescue’ that’s less rescue, more boondoggle
The name of the bill is H.R. 1319, the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021. But scroll the text, tabulate the figures, and it's plain to see the measure is far less for the rescue of the coronavirus-beaten people and far more for the political socialist ambitions of the Democrats.

Nancy Pelosi throws Andrew Cuomo under bus
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi dropped a bit of a bombshell on Sunday with a statement that said the sexual harassment accusations against Gov. Andrew Cuomo are "credible" and worthy of investigation. Tire, meet Cuomo's face. Published March 1, 2021
Black Lives Matter disturbingly mum on donors
Black Lives Matter -- the foundation -- raked in more than $90 million in donations in 2020, proving itself to be a major player in the political world then, now and, with Democrats holding all the positions of D.C. power, likely into the foreseeable future. So why the secrecy on donors? Published February 25, 2021
Naomi Wolf: Too little, too late — too disingenuous
Much ado is being made about ex-Clinton adviser and Joe Biden voter Naomi Wolf's explosive warning on Fox about the turning of this nation into a "totalitarian state" -- and it's not about nothing. But why doesn't the left ever heed the warnings before the 12th hour approaches? Published February 24, 2021
Military gives clues of experimental nature of COVID-19 vaccine
Get the coronavirus vaccination -- it's safe, it's effective, it's the way back to pre-pandemic normalcy. Those are the lines; these are the arguments. But consider this. If the coronavirus vaccines were all that safe and secure, then why isn't the military mandating it for troops? Published February 23, 2021
