I started this article on Monday, and by Monday afternoon, Eric Swalwell was no longer a member of Congress. Even though he tried in vain to proclaim his innocence, his political career was finally over. I am sure I am not the only person who wanted to give him the boot to get him out … Read more
I take umbrage with the idea of taxes as an investment. Given the opportunity, even the two-faced Dems spouting nonsense about our patriotic duty to let the government rob us would put their money into something else. Even just your own pocket is likely to produce better results in both the short and long term … Read more
Today on the Morning Update, an NBC snap poll of primary voters from both parties produced some interesting and amusing results. The Pope and Stephen Colbert were more popular than anything else on the list, while the Democrat Party was only slightly better than people’s opinion of Iran. Now available on Spotify Watch on the … Read more
One way to grasp the essence of Politics Without Politicians (by Hélène Landemore) is to view it as the polar opposite to Hans-Hermann Hoppe’s Democracy: The God That Failed. Hoppe thinks that democracy is a mistake: Hélène Landemore—a professor of political science at Yale University—thinks we do not have enough of it. What we call “democracy” today, in … Read more
Abigail Spanberger, the newly elected Governor of Virginia, was the Democrats’ choice to deliver the rebuttal to President Donald Trump’s State of the Union speech. Her short speech that attacked the President and labeled him a liar was as disingenuous as her campaign for Governor. She campaigned as a moderate and became a progressive the … Read more
Democrats have flirted with the idea of blaming Republicans for soaring electricity prices. Massachusetts wrecking ball Maura Healey gave it a whirl, but she wasn’t the best poster girl for the campaign. Her energy priorities haven’t just spiked electric rates; they are economically untenable. There isn’t enough money in all of New England to achieve … Read more
Recently, I drove through my hometown of Wallingford. At our one and only stoplight, a group had gathered at the four corners in protest of Trump. I assume anyone willing to give up a Saturday to hold up a sign in protest of something feels strongly about what they are protesting. I was in a … Read more
Perhaps certain words stick out to me more, but once again, while driving through my hometown, I observed dozens of peaceful protesters gathered in opposition to the democratically elected president, Donald Trump. As I have seen elsewhere, a couple of signs protesters were holding read “Save Democracy.” Others warned that our American democracy is under … Read more
Regarding Proglodyte tantrums over federal agents enforcing federal law. If we follow the modern left-wing definition of ‘militia,’ which ought to apply to left-wing domains in particular, they think it means the National Guard. They can’t shut up about it. It is a foundation of their civilian disarmament rhetoric. And not to put too fine … Read more
Another episode of the reality television series, “Schumer Shutdown,” just dropped. Senate Republican Leader John Thune offered an exchange. A promised scheduled vote on the Obamacare subsidy that Dems are using to hold the government hostage in exchange for opening the government on the clean CR. Pass the CR, and we’ll set a hard date … Read more
Dems Got Crimaliens, Beta Males in Girls Sports, Neutering Children, and what …Treason? Democrats stopped protecting ‘Democracy’ years ago and have long since worked diligently to undermine it while claiming to be its champion. This will sound familiar to minorities and women. Students, too, and not just in urban districts. Education and Democracy, viewed from … Read more
In the United States of America, mid 2020s, a clear practice that has been developed over the past decades is running into the reality of modern technology. This is the practice of manufacturing democracy. Mainly developed in Washington, DC, the manufacturing of democracy is an old technique that was important when developments in current events, … Read more
David Hogg is something of a Kardashian in Democrat circles. He’s famous for being famous for shouting and fist-waving after the Parkland shootings. A student of the school at the time, though, like Sandy Cortez, was neither present nor in danger. Hogg, to his credit, did not pretend to cry at the fence line, but … Read more
According to V.I. Lenin, the Supreme Soviet leader, “…socialism is impossible without democracy,” averred Lenin in his Collected Works (Vol. 23), “because: (1) the proletariat cannot perform the socialist revolution unless it prepares for it by the struggle for democracy; (2) victorious socialism cannot consolidate its victory and bring humanity to the withering away of … Read more
How the hell can we defeat this communist presence when most Americans don’t even know the form of government that they live under? Over the past fifty years, the bipartisan refrain that America is a democracy has increased in frequency and intensity. Given that truth can never be totally silenced, the more inquisitive among us … Read more
In the years leading up to the 2024 presidential election, the Democrats and establishment Republicans who wanted to see Joe Biden, and later Kamala Harris, remain in office went all in on one overarching narrative above all: that Donald Trump represented an existential threat to American democracy. Biden’s team and their allies in politics and … Read more
With the advent of representative democracy over a century ago in most of the West, the popular belief was that the “rule of the few” would be relegated to the dustbin of history. This never happened, of course, as has become clearer to the “many” over the decades. Indeed, the ruling Western oligarchy has become more visible … Read more
I came across this yesterday and have played it a few times already. After all, I am SICK and TIRED of the Democrats saying that all of us (Conservatives, Conservatarians, Libertarians – you know, anyone NOT them) are “anti-Democracy.” Well, they’re correct! I hate “Our Democracy.” Most of you already know why – we were … Read more
An undecided Pennsylvania voter named Kim said she voted for Donald Trump because she perceives the media as a graver “threat to democracy.”
Though it may feel like it for many of us, who knows where we rank among the most uncertain times in human history? Many civilizations have faced enormous levels of hostility and strife, our own as well during the Civil War, however the alarmist bells are clanging on both sides making essentially the same claim … Read more
