Venezuela admits — finally — economic collapse
Venezuela, the country the left had loved to showcase as a good example of what socialism could be -- until it started crashing and burning, that is, and then suddenly, the message from the left was that Venezuela wasn't a socialist nation at all -- has now openly admitted its economy is indeed, crashing and burning. Do tell. Published June 4, 2019
Robert Mueller hits, Robert Mueller runs
In this whole theatrical performance called "Impeach, Impeach, Impeach" that the Democrats have been playing since heir apparent Hillary Clinton went down in flames to Donald Trump, Robert Mueller's special counsel report was the main act. It was to be the a-ha moment to unseat Trump from the White House. But it failed. Miserably. Published June 4, 2019
Twitter’s new ‘Fabula’ fake news finder hints at more anti-conservative bias
Twitter's bought a new fake news finder -- a machine learning tool devised by the London-based Fabula AI, a company co-founded by Imperial College of London scientist Michael Bronstein and by chief technologist Federico Monti. Heads up, conservatives. This may be the next big social media enemy. Published June 3, 2019
Target goes full speed LGBTQ with ‘Love my dads’ shirts for kiddies
Target, the object of long-running Christian group boycott -- because of its opening of bathrooms and dressing rooms to those of both sexes -- is selling "Love my dads" and "Love my moms" shirts. And donating $100,000 to the Gay, Lesbian Straight Education Network. Published June 3, 2019
Birtherism, smirtherism: Jared Kushner stands ground
Newsflash: Jared Kushner defends father-in-law Donald Trump during an interview with Axios that focused, for an eye-rolling bit of time, on the now-president's previous -- i.e., years previous -- questioning of Barack Obama's birth certificate. And all the mentally competent go, umm, how is that a newsflash? Or, in Twitter lingo, WTF. Published June 3, 2019
Democrats are enemies of even Captain Obvious welfare controls
President Donald Trump signed a memorandum that puts teeth into two laws from 1996 requiring the sponsors of those who come to this country legally to pay back welfare benefits they may have used -- laws that have largely gone unenforced. So simple; so Captain Obvious obvious. Published May 25, 2019
U.S. flag fight shows grit of a true patriot
Camping World CEO Marcus Lemonis said he's not going to remove the giant U.S. flag his Gander RV flies proudly at his Statesville, North Carolina, branch no way, no how, no matter how much local authorities fine him. You go, Marcus Lemonis. This is a lesson of principle for fighting patriots -- and just in time for Memorial Day, no less. Published May 24, 2019
Prince George’s despicable sanctuary-loving leaders
Prince George's County, Maryland, has been in the news of late because two male illegal aliens with reported ties to MS-13, along with a female companion, were arrested for the murder of a 14-year-old girl -- a murder that investigators say began with a baseball bat and ended with a machete. Prince George's County is a sanctuary city. Published May 23, 2019
Amazon’s human emotion reader a tad of technological unease
Amazon has a new gadget it's developing that affixes to the wrist and reads human emotions. Hmm. What could possibly go wrong here? It's not that a modern-day mood ring, which is what this smartphone app-in-works seems to be, is in itself a terrible idea. Rather, it's the future potential uses that pose the pitfall.

Abortion a sad asterisk on suffragist anniversary
We're coming 'round the time when women earned the legislative right to vote in America. And it's an interesting time in America because abortion is one of today's most talked-about matters. Is this what suffragists fought to win -- the legislative right to abort on demand? Published May 23, 2019
Gay marriage support dips — but traditionalists need not cheer
Gallup pollsters just found that gay marriage, while still supported by the majority of Americans, is losing a bit of its luster and falling in favor. It's a dip, albeit a small one. What used to come in at 67% favor -- in 2018 -- is now registering at 63%. But the numbers aren't significant enough for traditionalists and Bible-believers to cheer. Published May 22, 2019
Joe Biden, a ‘fool’ whose candidacy makes ‘a cat laugh’
Joe Biden's presidential campaign has drawn the notice of Kim Jong-un -- whose state-run media called him out as a "fool" of such proportions, he could "make a cat laugh." That's at least a little bit funny. Everybody knows cats can be quite persnickety with their humor. Published May 22, 2019
Americans would vote socialist for president, Gallup finds
Nearly half of Americans told Gallup pollsters they'd vote for a socialist candidate for president. Roughly 58% of American adults said they'd vote for an atheist. And 43% said socialism would be a "good thing" for the country, not a "bad thing," Gallup wrote. What the freak, America. Published May 21, 2019
Venezuela’s gas lines of 700— there’s your socialism, folks
Venezuela, over the weekend, saw gas lines that stretched to 700-plus vehicles. There's your socialism, folks. The socialism the left in America so loves to tout Published May 21, 2019
Three ways the soulless left is winning
America was founded on the idea that rights come from God, not government. In order to keep this idea in place -- in order to keep America the dream of the free -- Americans must fight for the right to keep God in the public arena. It's the only way to save America from the socialists, and worse. Published May 21, 2019
Pete Buttigieg’s senseless attack on Fox News shows fear, elitism
Pete Buttigieg went on the attack against Fox News and Fox News news hosts and Fox News television pundits and commentators -- while on Fox News. How gauche. Classless. Democratic, even. But this is just the cries of a left that pines for the days of full media control -- of three big news networks, and that's it. Published May 20, 2019
Democrats can’t spin away murders committed by illegals
A Kenyan citizen who's been living in the United States illegally has now been charged by authorities with the killing at least 11 women. Yet all the Democrats are on board for open borders. Published May 18, 2019
Ilhan Omar’s stuff and nonsense ‘abolish ICE’ talk
Rep. Ilhan Omar called on America to abolish ICE, to quit all deportations -- to basically open U.S. borders wide to all who would cross, friend or enemy, apparently. How did this woman manage to work through her oath of office without giggling? Published May 17, 2019
Greed will sink America
President Donald Trump is pushing to balance out the unfair trade deals, particularly with China, that have harmed America for years -- and businesses and farmers and politicians are biting nails, predicting massively higher prices on consumers. But their short-term selfish way of thinking has to stop. Published May 16, 2019
Beto O’Rourke’s dumber-than-dumb cult of personality branding
Pollster Frank Luntz went on Fox News and said that basically, looking at the numbers, Beto O'Rourke was running the dumbest presidential campaign -- well, ever. There's an understatement, if there ever was one. Published May 15, 2019
