I watched the Patton movie the other night. Again. I love movies, but seldom watch films more than once or twice. But I’ve probably watched Patton well over 20 times. That seems like a lot, until you consider that this movie came out in 1970. So that’s less than once every two or three years. … Read more

The claim is typically framed in long-term terms: that Trump is engaged in a process of dismantling entrenched power, even if the results are not yet … Read more
Americans voted overwhelmingly for change in 2024, handing Donald J. Trump a mandate to drain the swamp, yet, here we are a year into his re-election, with the same D.C. swamp denizens seemingly unscathed, no prosecutions, no accountability for even the violations of 18 U.S. Code S.242 – Deprivation of rights under color of law, … Read more
President Donald Trump and his administration are playing chess while the Liberals are trying to understand Chinese checkers. Trump Derangement Syndrome forces those afflicted to automatically criticize every Trump decision, even if it is obvious that Trump’s call was for the good of all Americans. According to the Left, every one of his cabinet appointments … Read more
It is no secret that the progressive propaganda machine that took over the education industrial complex sees parents as a barrier to their program. Parental rights bills are opposed en masse from the left of the political aisle. Even single moms, the Virgin Marys of their dependency culture, are prohibited from a say in everything … Read more
If hundreds of thousands of ballots in Georgia’s pivotal 2020 election lacked legally required certification, then calling it “secure” was never a matter of opinion; it was demonstrably false. As President Donald J. Trump asserted during and after the 2020 election, the integrity of that contest was not merely a political talking point but a foundational … Read more
Never in my lifetime did I ever think that Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) and I would be on the same ideological side of any issue. When I saw headlines over the weekend that Schultz was praising the Trump action to remove and arrest Nicolas Maduro from Venezuela and relieve the people of Venezuela of decades … Read more
As of January 2026, the streets of Tehran, Isfahan, and Mashhad are alive with a sound the Islamic Republic has spent forty-seven years trying to silence: the roar of a people who no longer fear their oppressors. What began as a localized strike by shopkeepers in Tehran’s Grand Bazaar on December 28, 2025, has transformed … Read more
Overnight, the US military escorted Federal law enforcement into Caracas, Venezuela, to arrest Nicolás Maduro. By all accounts, the effort (mission) was flawless. As to the constitutionality, there will be questions. Maduro has had an arrest warrant out for years, so using the military to protect law enforcement, to collect him, in a foreign nation, … Read more
Harold Hutchison – Daily Caller News Foundation Salem Radio Network host Scott Jennings told “This Week” guest host Jonathan Karl on Sunday that President Donald Trump’s efforts to address illegal immigration represented his “biggest” fulfillment of a campaign promise in 2025.

The Republican championed new National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), represents the “Deep State” in a combination of entrenched interests, committees, lobbies, and bureaucracies that value the continuity of power over innovative strategy and sound reform. It does this by restricting the drawdown of troops stationed overseas, increasing murky foreign entrenchment through legally binding efforts to … Read more
I’m sorry, but I can’t help myself. Democrats dropped a photo of Trump with a bunch of adult women, blocked out their faces, then accused him of getting “caught” in an Epstein photo dump with underage girls. You’ll probably know the details by now—adult women. No Epstein. And Mr. Trump was reported to be a … Read more
This week, on GrokTALK!, I explore the reality of how Democrats made everything unaffordable in Neighboring Vermont with long-time Political Insider, Rob Roper, and why you shouldn’t complain about any effect of Trump’s tariffs without at least looking in the mirror. “Tradition is not the worship of ashes, but the preservation of fire.” – Gustav Mahler … Read more
Many Chronicle readers have taken umbrage at John Bossange’s recitation of alleged statements uttered by President Donald Trump that – Bossange and the original journalists say – demonstrate our Chief Executive is a racist, sexist, bigot. They wonder why VDC even published it. I published Bossange’s commentary because 1) VDC is a free speech forum, not a conservative echo … Read more
Nearly a year into his triumphant second term, Trump stands as a colossus, methodically dismantling the shadowy Deep State that has long strangled the will of the people. What began as a bold mandate from 75 million patriots in 2024 has evolved into a masterclass in executive resolve, yielding historic economic surges, ironclad border security, and a foreign … Read more
Democrats in Congress are still desperate for a win. Any win. Something that will make their base happy. Wait, you mean they aren’t actually using their legislative and oversight powers for good? No chance of that. They need to make sure the rank-and-file proglodytes fill out (and send) all of their mail-in ballots or goose-step … Read more
On November 17th, the UN Security Council endorsed the Trump Peace plan for Gaza. Past Trump rhetoric, called the UN’s central strategy of control – climate change, “a great con job.” His past policy moves against globalism could be summed up as: “Trusting the UN is like ‘trusting a fox in the chicken house.’” Restoring … Read more
In a move that underscores a commitment to transparency and proper presidential authority, President Donald J. Trump announced on November 28, 2025, the nullification of executive orders and other documents issued by the Biden administration that were signed using an autopen without the president’s direct involvement. “I am hereby cancelling all Executive Orders, and anything else that … Read more
This latest action by Representative Sandy Cortez (D-NY) is rich in so many ways and can be scrutinized in as many ways.

The World, at least the USA and mainstream media, was aflutter last week when the Capitalist met the Communist (a self-described Democrat socialist). The expected fireworks never developed, and, instead, mutual respect was seen on TV, which stunned all the pseudo-intellectual commentators that plague our media. I could name the “NAMES” but that would be … Read more
