Kamala Harris and the ‘Fashy Thing’
In the film “Men in Black,” a pen-like device causes people to forget everything they have seen and heard. Actor Will Smith calls it a “flashy thing.”
It appears the media and Democrats are metaphorically using a similar device, hoping voters will forget everything Vice President Kamala Harris has said and done in the past – even the ...Read more
It Fits Well. All the President’s Men…Are Weird
“Weird.” It’s the new Democratic talking point being used to describe former President Donald Trump and his newly minted running mate, Ohio Sen. JD Vance.
It was first used by Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz in the wake of newly-...Read more
Bibi Netanyahu: Profile in Courage
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed this past week, at the invitation of House Speaker Mike Johnson, a joint session of Congress.
The prime minister's job that night was to make clear to the Congress, to the nation and to the world the "what" and "why" of Israel's operation in Gaza, following the murderous attack by Hamas ...Read more
America's Airpower Is at Risk
In July 2014, I wrote a column that included this troubling paragraph: "With a few teeth-clenching exceptions (the Korean War's MiG Alley battles), since 1944, American land, sea and air forces have enjoyed the military and diplomatic benefits of U.S. air superiority. Unfortunately, in 2014 there are strong indications that America's air ...Read more
Kamala Harris' Fairness Issue
Monday night, Vice President Kamala Harris boosters launched a "White Dudes for Harris" Zoom rally and fundraiser, rushing to plug a glaring hole in the candidate's support: men.
Former President Donald Trump leads Harris 47 to 39 among male voters nationwide, in the latest Economist/You Gov poll. He's 16 points ahead with male voters in ...Read more
A Sit-Down With RFK Jr.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. won applause at the Libertarian presidential convention by criticizing government lockdowns and deficit spending, and saying America shouldn't police the world. It made me want to interview him. This month, I did. He said intelligent things about America's growing debt: "President Trump said that he was going to balance the...Read more
When San Francisco Was Not Liberal
"She is a San Francisco liberal."
That is how Republican Sen. Tom Cotton of Arkansas -- who graduated from Harvard and Harvard Law School -- described Vice President Kamala Harris in an interview on CNN last week.
That description of San Francisco may make sense now, but there was a time when it did not.
When President Dwight D. Eisenhower ...Read more
Kamala Harris, Candidate of Myth
So, Kamala Harris is the new Democratic candidate for president.
And, we've been told, she is incredible.
Not merely serviceable, a middle innings relief pitcher brought in when your starter suddenly implodes in the third inning. She is the Mariano Rivera of politics. She's lights-out. She's charismatic, fascinating, quick on her feet...Read more
Harris Cultivates Media Allies in Off-the-Record Schmoozefests!
It's funny how journalists admit Vice President Kamala Harris is getting a media honeymoon, and then deny it means anything. Ben Smith at Semafor sent an email noting "Republican fury" at the gushy pro-Kamala bias and claiming, "But who are we, and Republicans, kidding? I wish we had that kind of power. The news media can't make and break ...Read more
Olympic opening ceremony critics missed some golden opportunities
PARIS – Viewers around the world have suddenly taken an interest in French history as a result of being shocked or offended by the Olympic Games opening ceremony.
But seeing something bizarre and wondering what the creator was thinking is the whole point of art. It’s what curious people do all the time during visits to galleries or museums....Read more
What Vance Gets Right Even When He's Wrong
Donald Trump is the most entertaining man in politics. J.D. Vance may be the most interesting.
During the Republican National Convention, Sen. Vance made his debut on the national political stage. He accepted the vice presidential nomination and shared his rags-to-riches story.
He was raised in the small, poor town of Middletown, Ohio. His ...Read more
On Kamala Harris' Role, Media Cross Border Into Outright Lies
Facts are facts, even if they make new presidential candidate Kamala Harris look bad. This fact is undeniable, no matter how much dishonest media try to obfuscate it: President Joe Biden appointed the vice president to stem the tide of migrants to the U.S. southern border. Period. No wiggle room.
And the almost inarguable judgment is that she...Read more
The Left Does Not Hate Religion; It Hates Christianity!
I am a Jew, not a Christian. Yet I found loathsome the mockery of the Last Supper -- one of the holiest scenes in the New Testament -- during the opening of the 2024 Olympics in Paris.
In fact, it is actually troubling to constantly read the words, "Many Christians are offended" -- as if only Christians are offended by France's and the ...Read more
Telling the Truth About Gaza and Israel
Last week one of the world’s great orators came to Washington and delivered an address to Congress that was so powerful and so true that a number of Democrat progressives politics/fromtheright/calthomas/s-3348815">Read more
Biden's Rent Control Schemes Will Backfire on Renters -- They Always Do!
It's clear why President Joe Biden desperately wants to bring down housing prices and rent. With mortgage interest rates double what they were when former President Donald Trump took office, mortgage payments have roughly doubled since 2020, and rents are up in many cities by more than 30%.
So much for the dream of homeownership. And just ...Read more
The Choice of Kamala Makes No Sense! It's a Terrible Mistake! But Democrats Have Something Up Their Sleeve! Something Very Evil and Shocking is Coming!
Donald J. Trump is not supposed to be alive. It's literally a miracle that President Trump is still standing. There was clearly a conspiracy by the highest levels of government, the deep state, D.C. swamp and Democrats to have him murdered on Saturday, July 13.
Only divine intervention kept their plan from working.
Trump was winning by a ...Read more
The Bloodless Coup of Joe Biden Will Not Work Out Well for Democrats
The Democratic Party ruling class's bloodless coup of their own democratically elected presidential nominee, who also happens to be the nominal sitting president of the United States, is one of the most astonishing political developments of my lifetime. Joe Biden, though clearly physically and mentally impaired, has sought the presidency for ...Read more
By the Way, Kamala Harris Is a Dangerous Authoritarian!
With some hard work, pluck, the right boyfriend and a bit of genetic luck, Kamala Harris has found her way onto the presidential ballot without having to secure a single primary vote. Don't tell me the American Dream is dead.
Sure, Harris is a demagogue who speaks in cringy, swirling, impenetrable platitudes. And sure, according to President ...Read more
Losing (Con)Troll
In 2020, Joe Biden chose Kamala Harris to be his running mate, despite her evisceration of him on a debate stage where she attacked him as perpetuating and collaborating with racists. Biden, at the time, explicitly said he would choose a nonwhite female running mate and had originally flirted with the idea of failed Georgia candidate Stacey ...Read more
We Have One Healthy Party
Within minutes of President Joe Biden's withdrawal from the 2024 race, Sen. Tom Cotton leaped onto X to declare that "Joe Biden succumbed to a coup by Nancy Pelosi, Barack Obama, and Hollywood donors, ignoring millions of Democratic primary votes. Donald Trump took a bullet for democracy."
Radio host Erick Erickson was even more creative, ...Read more
