Almost Every Society Had Slavery, and it Wasn't So Bad in America!
Today people are taught, when it comes to slavery, America was the worst. Virginia Sen. Tim Kaine actually said, "The United States didn't inherit slavery from anybody; we created it." An MSNBC "expert" claims "American slavery was worse because slaves were treated as property."
"That's complete nonsense," replies political...Read more
How Kamala Harris Defines 'Extreme'
Republican Rep. Ann Wagner of Missouri went to the House floor on Jan. 11, 2023, to promote a bill she was sponsoring.
It focused on newborn babies.
"All children should be welcomed with joy and wonder, no matter the circumstances of their birth," she said. "Yet, too many of these sweet little ones are denied the medical care they need to ...Read more
Is Trump Trying to Prod Georgia Voters to Go With Harris?
WASHINGTON -- If you're a Republican, you've been through this drill before -- that moment when a group of establishment Republicans reveal that they are voting for a Democrat because they deem the GOP nominee to be unworthy.
They sign a group statement with a more-in-sorrow-than-in-anger pronouncement that surprises absolutely no one.
And ...Read more
Harris, Walz and the Minnesota Freedom Fund
Kamala Harris announced that her running mate will be Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, who drew national huzzahs in the last few weeks for underlining the Democrat message that J.D. Vance is a major-league weirdo.
Vance congratulated Walz for the gig and lowered the boom: "Tim Walz allowed rioters to burn down Minneapolis in the summer of 2020, and the...Read more
Just Who Is the Real Middle-Class President?
President Joe Biden talked incessantly about his "from the middle class out" economic strategy. Given his record, it would have been more accurate to call it the "middle class down and out" plan. Inflation has eroded away any income gains under Biden's presidency.
Now Vice President Kamala Harris has her own riff on this theme. Her campaign ...Read more
Should America kick out foreign athletes to improve its Olympic chances?
PARIS – Why is legendary U.S. Olympic swimmer, Michael Phelps, cheering like a madman for a French swimmer – particularly one who’s breaking Phelps’ own Olympic records? The answer is eyebrow raising and stirring online debate.
Phelps’ longtime former coach, Bob Bowman, is not just the coach of that same French swimmer, Léon Marchand...Read more
2024 echoes '1984'
The book "1984" is supposed to be a warning. Today's leftists are using it as an instruction manual.
George Orwell's classic novel is set in a dystopian world where Big Brother controls the population through information control and surveillance. See if any of this sounds familiar.
"Doublethink means the power of holding two contradictory ...Read more
Middle America Rattled by Jobs Report
For the past four years, inflation has rattled local small businesses across the country. The inflation rate peaked in 2022, but of course the cost of goods never went back down.
In fact, the prices just kept rising, just not at the same clip they had been rising at the peak.
In short, gas prices, food prices, housing prices, energy...Read more
A Bittersweet Deal That Freed Innocents -- and an Assassin
WASHINGTON -- National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan fought to hold back tears Thursday as he talked about watching President Joe Biden on the phone informing the families of American hostages held in Russia that their loved ones would be free after a prisoner swap. It was a joyous occasion, topped only by the return of the hostages.
It was,...Read more
The Secret Service Makes Me Nervous
In 1962, composer Irving Berlin debuted his final musical, “Mr. President.” The show has a silly little song that contains the lyric "the Secret Service makes me nervous."
I thought of that song after the real Secret Service failed to protect former President Donald Trump at a rally three ...Read more
Mr. President, Now Is the Time to Combine 'No Tax on Tips' with 'No Tax on Social Security for Seniors' for the Greatest One-Two Punch Since Mike Tyson!
I've campaigned for this idea for over five years now. I've written commentaries about it. I've pitched it to politicians. I've screamed from the highest mountains on my TV and radio shows.
And this past Saturday, I made it my No. 1 story on my "America's Top Ten Countdown" show on Real America's Voice TV.
That's something I've never done ...Read more
Yes, We Need a National Conversation on Dating, Family Life and Economics
Wholly unable to defend their actual record on pressing issues such as stagnating wages, soaring inflation, violent crime and mass illegal immigration, the Biden-Harris regime and its fourth-estate stenographers have deflected by ginning up an astroturfed hysteria over a random old TV clip from vice presidential contender J.D. Vance.
The ...Read more
Democrats Promise To Save 'Democracy' by Destroying the Supreme Court
It's difficult to make substantive arguments against the Democrats' Supreme Court "reform" proposal, since everyone knows it's just a cynical ploy to delegitimize both the court and the Constitution.
Ask yourself this: Would any Democrat support the president's court-packing scheme if they believed Republicans would win both Houses and the ...Read more
Washington Post Culture Mavens Go Coconutty Over Kamala
We have officially reached that late period in a presidential campaign where the thoroughly leftist national newspapers turn into partisan rags that coo and gush, this time over Vice President Kamala Harris. Consider the July 31 "Style" section of The Washington Post.
It began with a large color photograph of a Harris impersonator on TikTok ...Read more
The 'White Dudes for Harris' Zoom Call Was Weird!
Monday night's "White Dudes for Harris" Zoom call, with some 90,000 registered to participate, was surely a landmark in political history. Nearly 200 years ago, when the Democratic Party was being formed to elect and reelect Andrew Jackson, the entire American electorate, with exceptions, such as Black New Englanders, property-owning Black New ...Read more
Can This Country Return to Old-School Journalism?
When I worked at the University of Illinois, I had the great good fortune to befriend Ron Yates, who was at the time the dean of the College of Communications (later the College of Media).
Ron is an old-school journalist; he was educated and began his career at a time when the profession was known for serious (sometimes life-threatening) ...Read more
Team Kamala Says She's Tough on the Border. But What's Her History?
WASHINGTON -- Vice President Kamala Harris wants Americans to believe that she is not a progressive. Now that she's heading the Democratic ticket, she's all for securing the border, after all.
For many of us who've known her since the days she served as San Francisco district attorney and California attorney general, that's a tall order. ...Read more
When Presidents Kill
Sometime before he withdrew from the presidential race, President Joe Biden secretly reaffirmed his own self-willed and self-created authority to kill persons in other countries, so long as the CIA and its military counterparts have "near certainty" that the target of the homicide is a member of a terrorist organization. That standard was ...Read more
Joe Biden, an American Hero in His Own Way
President Joe Biden is an American hero in his own way.
To be sure, he is no George Washington, Thomas Jefferson or Abraham Lincoln. But as late Republican Sen. Roman Hruska observed about the U.S. Supreme Court justices, "We can't have all Brandeises and Frankfurters and Cardozos."
Biden withdrew his reelection bid on July 20 not because he...Read more
J.D. Vance and the Bipartisan Itch to Tax Behavior
Republican vice presidential nominee J.D. Vance has been in the news for an old clip of him talking about how the tax code should punish adults without kids. While Vance's proposal probably aims to address demographic concerns, it represents a misguided approach that contradicts fundamental principles of economic freedom and fairness.
And you...Read more
