If you want to make the world a better place, start with the funny face in the mirror. It’s no different for nation states. If you want a better world, start with the stupid country you’re living in. It’s great to shoot for the stars – but pick the low hanging fruit on the way up! Yes, I mix metaphors for a living. Okay, so let’s get the easy stuff out of the way. There is no energy crisis. There … Continue reading “Fixing America”

Yes. Oh, details again? So, what do you think would happen if the US disappeared tomorrow? Forget the cataclysmic stuff from a suddenly missing continent – if the US could safely just move to Mars what would happen? Okay, okay, after the shock wore off. The four contenders for ‘next super power’ are: the EU, India, China and Russia. No, you missed the ride so you can’t move to the US. Who do you want for your next world dominating … Continue reading “Is America Important to the World?”

Nope. See y’all next… You guys are really into details aren’t you? Okay, from the top. Trump is a businessman and a deal maker. He might not like a given policy but he’s not going to sacrifice all the assets just to dump the policy. If he were going to do stupid stuff like that he’d have pulled out of Afghanistan as disastrously as Biden did. Trump isn’t going to miss a good opportunity for a deal. So yes, he’s … Continue reading “Will Trump Destroy Ukraine?”

Isn’t it amazing that all the prosecutors in the various Trump indictments need to set trial dates right in the middle of the critical part of the primaries? It’s not like Trump needs to campaign or anything. I will grant that his current massive lead against DeSantis may indicate less urgency for getting the Republican nomination. Thing is, the primaries do more than merely determine the nominees. The primary campaigns are also important for the general election. Isn’t it mighty … Continue reading “Democrat Election Interference is Happening and the Democrats are Still Losing”

In case you somehow missed it, the January 6 they are referring to occurred on January 6, 2021. Now, I’m no legal genius or even an attorney but seems to me that it doesn’t take THREE YEARS to simply bring an indictment. Unless, of course, you’re deliberately dragging out the process for political purposes. You know, like interfering in the electoral process by damaging the frontrunner’s reputation and keeping him constantly busy in court instead of on the campaign trail. … Continue reading “Indictment 3.0: How to Destroy DOJ Credibility in Three Easy Steps”

I know, I know, everyone says something is going to collapse and nothing seems to ever actually collapse. I mean, besides Sri Lanka. Y’all are probably convinced nothing is going to ever get around to collapsing. That’s the trouble with politics. It has its own time scale. Things are moving pretty quickly of late but that just means that stuff is happening over months and years instead of decades. Political collapses are glacial until they abruptly join the Indianapolis 500. … Continue reading “End of the Uniparty”

Seriously, Dude, what did you expect? Well, whatever, you now have a choice. Keep fighting a losing battle and damage your political prospects for 2028 or bow out graciously and become Trump’s biggest supporter. Stop looking at me like that! I told you NOT to run against Trump. Get mad at the idiots that egged you on, not me. Look, polls are crap, but they shouldn’t be double digits apart if you have any real chance. There shouldn’t be any … Continue reading “Dear Ron, Told You So!”

Virtue signaling is the stupidest thing since bell bottoms for men. But our leftist friends don’t seem to let that bother them so here we are. SIGH! Here’s a little bit of law school for ya – you cannot legally purchase stolen goods. If it was stolen, it remains the property of the person it was stolen from no matter how much you paid for it. There are all kinds of messy situations where it is very hard or impossible … Continue reading “Hey, Ben and Jerry’s! Give Back the Land You Stole!”

WOO HOO!!!!! On June 29, 2023 in STUDENTS FOR FAIR ADMISSIONS, INC. v. PRESIDENT AND FELLOWS OF HARVARD COLLEGE the United States Supreme Court reset the game. The United States has changed. Affirmative Action has suffered a death blow. The country will never be the same. It will be better. Yes, I’m well aware the Court didn’t strike Affirmative Action down completely and there is much left to fight. But the monster’s legs have been cut out from beneath it. … Continue reading “Affirmative Reaction”

It’s not like the word salad coming out of the Left means anything anyway. The whole ‘white guilt’ thing was past its expiration date. Besides being cringy as all get out it made no historic sense at all. A white man’s life expectancy in the interior of Africa in the Nineteenth Century was shorter than the life expectancy of a black man brought to the Caribbean, one year and three years respectively. Hint: Whites had help. Should modern Africans pay … Continue reading “Istaphobes Don’t Care Anymore”
