President Trump, in his bull-in-the-china-shop way, as Christopher Roach calls it, is daring Americans, especially black Americans, to look hard at the declining state of affairs of some of America’s largest cities. As the uproar over his “go back” attack on the Squad seemed to be waning, Trump stirred up the racist chant once more […]
Trump Beats Back a Concerted Campaign of Delegitimization
Politicians, especially presidents, spend much of their time defending their power to govern, rather than governing. President Trump, perhaps among the most unlikely and in some ways weakest of presidents, “has brawled his way to victory over the most concerted delegitimization campaign any president has ever faced,” writes Holman W. Jenkins, Jr. in the WSJ. […]
Ruth Bader Ginsberg Not for Expanding Supreme Court Justices
In an interview this week with NPR, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg told Nina Totenberg that she is not in favor of proposals put forth by some Democratic presidential candidates advocating changing the number of Supreme Court justices. For example, Pete Buttigieg, mayor of South Bend, Indiana, indicates he would increase the number of justices from […]
Was Mueller Actually Involved in the Trump/Russia Investigation?
Did Democrats really believe that Robert Mueller was going to provide them with more ammo to bolster their impeachment inquiry? If they did, it was an extraordinary miscalculation, reports The Federalist’s David Harsanyi: Not only was Mueller often flustered and unprepared to talk about his own report—we now have wonder to what extent he was […]
Propagandists Lies – Why Not Boycott Israel?
Congresswomen Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib, two members of the Democratic Squad, despite wanting to boycott everything Israeli, are taking their act to Israel. In what William McGurn (WSJ) calls “a great gift to Donald Trump,” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is going to let them in. Roger Simon in The Federalist lists some things the […]
The Handout State – Keeping the Needy Needy
The media and the entire Democratic Party, agitated by the House Squad, seem to be having a meltdown over President Trump’s rather inelegant tweet last week: Why don’t they go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came. Then come back and show us how it is done. […]
Racism – Democrats’ Power Tool for Votes?
Would any reasonable person deny that there are racists among us? Or that racial discrimination retards upward mobility? So what is the cause of the current social disparities in the U.S? Jason L. Riley in the WSJ writes, “Evidence of racial bias in the past or the present, does not prove that racism is responsible […]
The Brain Treatment Foundation vs. Progressives
Chris Pratt is famous to many for his roles in NBC’s “Parks and Recreation” and the blockbuster film “Guardians of the Galaxy.” But Mr. Pratt came under fire recently for wearing a t-shirt depicting the Gadsden Flag, a historical flag with meaning that dates back to 1775 during the American Revolution. Don’t Tread on Me […]
President Trump – No Monopoly on Violating Political Norms
Not for a moment should anyone think that President Trump has a monopoly on violating political norms, reports the WSJ. On Tuesday of this week, Speaker Nancy Pelosi violated her own House rules on appropriate speech. Ms. Pelosi, looking for a House resolution to denounce Mr. Trump on his “racist” tweets, offered, “Every single member […]
Donald Trump – “Go Back and then Come Back”
As one editorial put it, President Trump certainly has whacked the beehive. The unnecessary controversy was set off by yet another poorly worded, inelegant Trump tweet: But as Holman Jenkins writes in the WSJ, despite the faux outrage, the media should pay Mr. Trump to tweet. The latest in how easily Trump’s elicits ritualized behavior […]
