Abraham Lincoln’s Thanksgiving Proclamation is the origin of our national holiday that is so quintessentially American. He was spurred on by Sarah Hale, a magazine editor and ardent campaigner for Thanksgiving as a national event. It is a great unifier, so much so that even expatriates will celebrate it as their link to America. I…

Good morning, kids. Happy and blessed Thanksgiving to you and yours. It is sadly ironic that the blessings of togetherness, abundance and in President Washington’s enacting this day as a holiday G-d’s grace in granting us a nation where we can, or at least are supposed to live in freedom, that in years past we…

Good morning, kids. Midweek and with the day before Thanksgiving upon us, the news seems to be getting more dispiriting and disheartening as time goes on. No, I’m not giving up hope that somehow Trump will prevail, but the direct political descendants of those who unleashed Kolyma, Birkenau and the Killing Fields are in the…
The Morning Rant
The genius of American Exceptionalism is the conscious rejection of the glacial pace of change in the Old World. Royalty was royalty; farmers were farmers; shopkeepers were shopkeepers; and there was very little movement between those rigidly defined classes. America was different. We disavowed monarchists; we set the stage for a truly equal society, and…

Good morning, kids. Tuesday and the fallout if you will over Sidney Powell and both her non-official position on the Trump defense team and more crucially the veracity of her claims of election fraud is up front this morning. In the wake of Thursday’s press conference that if nothing else was a giant morale booster…
The Morning Report 11/23/20
Good morning, kids. Monday and the breaking news that came late yesterday is that the Trump legal team has issued a statement distancing itself from Sidney Powell. This comes on the heels of Thursday’s press conference where Powell, along with Rudy Giuiani and Jenna Ellis laid out in broad strokes what they intend to show…
The Insanity Of The Left Is Also Their Strength
The anger and vitriol directed at President Trump by the Left is a natural progression emerging from their classic game plans to subvert and then destroy the West. Saul Alinsky’s rules are clear, and the Left follows them ruthlessly, with focus and intensity that that seems prima facie evidence of their insanity. After all, who…
The Morning Report 11/20/20
Good morning, kids. The weekend is here and the lead story was Team Trump’s press conference yesterday. Rudy Giuliani, Jenna Ellis and most of all Sidney Powell presented, for lack of a better expression their “opening argument” in describing what happened on Election Day and night and the weeks or perhaps even years leading up to…
The Morning Report 11/19/20
Good morning, kids. Thursday and, okay, I’m not going to get excited but it is nice to wake up to some good news in the morning and hopefully it won’t be fleeting. The two Wayne County, Michigan GOP election canvassers who were subjected to naked terroristic threats and intimidation against them and their families are…
The Morning Report 11/18/20
Good morning, kids. Midweek and it serves me right going to bed last night thinking that maybe, just maybe, the good news out of Wayne County, MI was reason to keep hope alive. Instead, I wake up to my guts collapsing and my blood pressure rising. The Board of Canvassers had originally voted 2-2 along party…
