While it is not a hard and fast editorial rule, the unspoken ‘Grok policy when referring to the party of Democrats is to call it the Democrat party. They don’t like it, but that’s not why we do it.

The polls change almost daily, based on who is asking the questions and how they’re phrased. And the polls are “samples”, usually no more than a couple of thousand people in a country where over 200 … Read more
Donald Trump let us down last night. Republicans had such high hopes that Trump would take Kamala Harris out of the Presidential race as he did with Joe Biden. Trump exposed what we all knew about President Biden. Biden came away from their debate as a senile, bumbling man who was being hidden from the … Read more
Elections are safe, they say. Clean as a whistle. No cheating, no foolishness; it’s all on the up and up. Anyone who says otherwise is a conspiracy theorist and probably some right-wing wacko. If that’s true, then Mr. Trump’s promise, if elected, to prosecute election fraud to the fullest extent of the law is a … Read more
The following is commentary from a reader about the Debate: Donald Trump versus ABC News and Kamala Harris. Watching that debate was painful and maddening.

After six weeks of completely hiding from the media, Kamala Harris finally appeared, with the safety valve of her running mate, in a pre-recorded, brief, and totally friendly interview with Dana Bash of CNN. Bash did not press on the most urgent issues, nor did she follow up when Harris either obfuscated or simply refused … Read more
The public is exhausted after a decade of chronic untruth from the left-wing and its media. The 2016 presidential campaign will be long remembered for the false allegation that Donald Trump colluded with the Russians to warp the election.

Amazing! The acting is brilliant, and the American history must be shared with every American from 9 to 99. All of us who lived when Reagan reigned as POTUS know the historical accuracy of this film is remarkable.

It looks like Americans are facing another nail-biting presidential race this year. Pollsters tell us that Trump and Harris are virtually neck-and-neck. This should not be a close election. Just a few weeks ago, President Joe Biden was the presumptive Democrat nominee, but it was clear that he couldn’t win reelection. Kamala Harris was even … Read more
If you don’t encourage children to question sexuality, which they barely if at all, understand, you’ll find they don’t. Oh, look, you’ve cured it. This applies to teachers, educators, staff, therapists (who know better), coaches, and other parents. As I wrote here, the best thing you can do for a child is Children who have … Read more

One prominent example relates to an August decision by a federal judge that could, … Read more
Food prices are climbing, but soon will soar — inflation is ensured due to recent massive spending. As Americans are pushed to consume artificial meat as a solution to the alleged environmental impact of cow farts, the government seeks to expand its techno-monitoring, in the name of “health and safety,” by requiring the RFID chipping of all livestock. The argument is … Read more
