Greta Thunberg gifted global Davos stage to sell climate nonsense

Greta Thunberg, the teenager who is to environmentalism what young David Hogg is to gun control -- meaning, Exploited Because They're Minors Who Push Far Left Delusions -- made an appearance at the World Economic Forum in Davos to plead, once again, for everyone in the world to stop being so mean to Planet Earth.

Capitalism unfairly branded as doing ‘more harm than good’

A new survey of people around the world finds that capitalism is being seen as doing "more harm than good." But if truth be told, it's capitalism and only capitalism that takes into account the wickedness of human hearts -- the natural failings of humans -- and works within that reality to lift individuals and whole nations from poverty.

Hugh Hewitt — conservatives don’t vote socialist. Ever.

Hugh Hewitt, a conservative radio host and writer, roiled the media cycles just recently when he said he was going to vote in the Virginia primary for socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders. With all due respect to Hewitt, who's written some fine books and advanced some fine patriotic principles -- conservatives don't vote for socialists. Ever. Published January 20, 2020

Christian persecution on rise: North Korea, Muslims to blame

Once again, of the top ten anti-Christian countries of the world, eight slots go to nations with predominantly Islamic populations. And once again, the news of Islam's radical tendencies will very likely fall on deaf Democrat ears. Published January 18, 2020

Eminem calling for gun control akin to terrorist preaching on peace

Eminem, also known as one rap world's most violently, vulgar lyricists -- and whitest -- just dropped a surprise new album on the music community, accompanied by a video in which he makes a plea for gun control. It's hard to take seriously a guy who makes a living off selling violence as a form of art also calling for an end to violence. Published January 17, 2020

Lev Parnas, another Democratic impeachment dud

Much ado has been made by MSNBC and The New York Times and the left and the Democrats about the latest, newest, glitziest, golden boy hoped-for impeachment witness, former Rudy Giuliani business associate Lev Parnas. But this guy is a dud like all the rest. Published January 16, 2020

Socialists are coming for your children

Socialists are coming for your school-age children -- and that's no hyperbole. In a post on its website, the Democratic Socialists of America writes, "Why Socialists Should Become Teachers." This is horrifying. America's children are being targeted by forces who stand in utter opposition to all this country represents. Published January 16, 2020

Bernie Sanders, the patriot: ‘Our job is to build the United Nations’

Oh boy, this is about as far left on foreign policy as a leftist can get -- and no surprise, it's brought to America courtesy of the socialist-slash-democratic-socialist-slash-independent-slash-Democrat, Bernie Sanders. "Our job," he said, at the final Democrat debate in Iowa, broadcast by CNN, "is to build the United Nations." Wow. Published January 14, 2020

Vince Vaughn talks to Donald Trump, and suffocating left goes nuts

Vince Vaughn, Hollywood actor, dared to chat it up with President Donald Trump at the national championship game in New Orleans. And now the left is going nuts. Call it freedom, Democrat style. Another word for it? Suffocating. Published January 14, 2020

Democrats: Killing patriotism, one child at a time

In the years between the Greatest Generation and now, the values that made America great -- the individual call to duty, honor, faith, family, country -- have been, in the minds and hands of millennials, tossed to the wayside. That's according to a Pew survey that found youth don't see America as the greatest country in the world. Published January 14, 2020

Nancy Pelosi gets her revenge: Donald Trump is ‘impeached for life’

In between the insistence on impeachment as a dire national security issue and then the holding of the articles, Nancy Pelosi gave a slight hint into why she's been going gung-ho for so long, so viciously, yet so utterly devoid and defiant of facts, against President Donald Trump: It's personal. It's revenge. It's her way of marking Trump for life. Published January 13, 2020

John Kerry’s delusional diplomacy

John Kerry, former Democratic senator, presidential aspirant and U.S. State Department secretary under Barack Obama, is a heavy pot smoker. He'd have to be to say this: Until President Donald Trump came along, the Iran nuclear deal "was working." Published January 10, 2020

Jody Hice: It’s the God-given that makes us great

Rep. Jody Hice said the most crucial principle to remember about America is that here, in this country, individual rights come from God, not the government, and that deviating from this path leads to cultural degradation, Big Government, socialism and, ultimately, utter governmental and societal collapse. He's right, you know. Published January 9, 2020

Nancy Pelosi endangers U.S. by faulting Trump ‘provocations’ of Iran

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, in a tweet that came on the heels of Iran's launch of a dozen ballistic missiles against U.S.-populated military bases in Iraq, said President Donald Trump should quit poking the Iranian bear. She blamed Trump for Iran's hostilities. This is liberal logic at its worst. It's like a whisper to Iran, hey, you got a friend in me. Published January 8, 2020

Iran vows ‘all out war’ — and U.S. must stand strong

Iran shot off more than a dozen missiles at two military bases in Iraq that house U.S. troops, ratcheting tensions but injuring or killing no one -- and now Iran is warning America: Respond and it's war. Well, isn't that a pot calling the kettle black moment. America, on Iran, must not retreat. Published January 8, 2020

In this frame grab from video posted online, people try to resuscitate victims of a deadly stampede at a funeral procession for a top Iranian general killed in a U.S. airstrike last week, in Kerman, Iran, Tuesday, Jan. 7, 2019. Two Iranian semi-official news agencies reported that the stampede in Kerman that killed dozens of people and injured over 200 others took place in Kerman, the hometown of Revolutionary Guard Gen. Qassem Soleimani, as the procession got underway. (AP Photo)

Soleimani funeral stampede shows savagery of U.S. enemies

Forty died and more than 200 were injured during funeral services for the killed Gen. Qassem Soleimani. Don't know about funerals in your neck of the woods. But typically, in more civilized section, stampedes and angry rallying and loud vows to kill Americans and attack U.S. spots are not part and parcel of the whole funeral procession experience.
