Good morning, kids. Thursday and all I have to say is fuck the entire GOP to hell. It’s easy to hate the Democrats, and I use that term advisedly since the members of that party are about as far removed from the concept of democracy as one can possibly imagine. Repulsive, repugnant and hateful as…
Good morning, kids. Wednesday and I guess the theme for today, and probably every day, is the usual suspects pissing on our backs and telling us it’s raining. The latest example of this is so-called “journalist” Martha Raddatz, who looks like she’s wearing a knockoff of Rashida Taliban’s coelacanth face mask belching up this madness: In…
We need serious men and women if we are to salvage what is left of our republic. People with plans to revamp our broken and corrupt voting systems; people who understand the existential danger of a “woke” military; people who see the border crisis as it is…an invasion; people who will defend free speech against…
Good morning, kids. I’m feeling a bit schizophrenic today. I mean, for a while now, I’ve been more or less resigned to the fact that I’ve joined the camp that thinks it’s time to move on from Donald Trump as the standard-bearer for 2024. Completely discounting the unhinged Never-Trumpers whose attacks are based solely on…
Good morning, kids, and a Happy Hanukkah to all. It’s a holiday that celebrates an actual historic event in Jewish history, a victory over tyranny and the miracle of the light that burned for eight days. Now more than ever, let’s hope it’s a metaphor for deliverance and better days ahead. Meanwhile, darkness abounds wherever…
Orwell (yup…him again!) famously wrote about language and its ability to manipulate the political and social spheres. In his essay called Politics And The English Language*, he said: If thought corrupt language, language can corrupt thought Are we not seeing exactly that today? The butchering of the greatest language on earth, by people intent upon…
Good morning kids. The weekend is here and honestly, I am loathe to even cover Donald Trump’s “big announcement” from yesterday. Whether you believe he jumped the shark or, as Andrea Widburg notes it’s a clever way to fundraise in a way that allows donors to remain anonymous and not get doxxed, the optics IMHO are, to…
Good morning kids. The statement “I love humanity. I hate people,” has been attributed to various individuals, yet I distinctly remember it as coming from Robert Moses. Fitting, since Moses was essentially the unelected emperor of New York City for nearly 40 years, and would doubtless fit right in with the global reset crowd in…
The manipulation of the language by the hard left is one of their greatest skills, and the conservative opposition to it is weak and ineffectual. We tend to accept their torturing of the language by allowing it into common usage without challenge, or at most some half-hearted attempts at correcting the etymological record. But the…
Good morning kids. Wednesday and regarding the Sam Bankman-Fried editorial from yesterday, wherein I asserted that no way does Scam Bank-Fraud face prosecution, it looks as if I stand corrected. Sort of. Bankman-Fried faces up to 115 years in prison if convicted of the following crimes: – Count One: Conspiracy to Commit Wire Fraud on Customers;…
