Ok that’s not their headline. But to them this news is so breaking they used their fancy infographic at 8AM CT and haven’t even posted the story to their website yet. The gist of it is this: the GAO is going to report today that the TSA has largely been a waste of money that…
The Rights of “Transgenders” Trump The Rights Of All Others
In our increasingly Kafka-esque country, the right of a high school student who “identifies” as a girl to use the girl’s locker room in his high school is being supported by the Federal Department of Education. Ignoring the insanity of this support, I am embarrassed that I never thought of this scam as a way…

College-level speaking not required at the GOP debates Trump is speaking at a fifth-grade level, according to an analysis of three GOP debates. And Cruz is the only candidate at a high school level.

Limbaugh: Republican Bipartisanship Has One Goal….The Destruction Of Conservatism
I happened to listen to Rush Limbaugh yesterday as he railed against the Republican party and specifically the leadership’s incomprehensible (to him) rush to the left. His rhetorical flourishes aside, he describes the situation accurately, but as I listened, I kept saying to myself (well, yelling it) “Where the fuck have you been?” Limbaugh is…

“This Is How We Wage War. This Is Why We Keep Losing”
John Schindler wrote this excellent article “Bureaucracy Keeps Doing Its Thing” last year, and posted a link to it recently on his Twitter feed. It’s a depressing analysis of the possibly existential damage that the creaking bureaucracy of the Pentagon, aided and abetted by Congress, has done to our ability to win wars. His perspective…
Candidate Appeal: Sanders
Every so often I call back the memories of my stupid youth when I was a liberal (Gun control, welfare, right down the line. Social issues weren’t too huge at the time so I didn’t do much of those.) I ran though the old “If you’re not a liberal by the time you’re 30…” bit…
Trey Gowdy need only ask one question tomorrow of Hillary
Ok, to be fair, one question and depending on the answer one or two follow-ups. There’s been a lot of talk (Screw you Kevin McCarthy) over whether or not this is a political inquiry. To which the answer is: No, except that Hillary made it one by looking out for her political future over the…
