Widespread Lying about Trump’s Speech
NRO: Senator Tammy Duckworth says that, during his address at Mount Rushmore on Friday, President Trump “spent all his time talking about dead traitors.” This is a flat-out lie. It is entirely untrue. It is invented from whole cloth. You can read the speech here and see for yourself. It was a magnificent speech as…

President Trump’s Mount Rushmore Speech
Roger Kimball appreciates its magnificence and writes about it brilliantly: The president was especially strong in challenging what is perhaps the most obnoxious manifestation of our petulant antinomianism—that species of politically correct intolerance that has come to be called “cancel culture.” In essence, cancel culture is the malignant inversion of liberalism’s defining virtues, openness and…

What Can a Sane individual Do in the Present Political Situation?
This is a repost from last November. Given how fast things are unraveling, what I wrote then sounds a bit lame now. Still, I think my suggestions are sound. They are things I do. Whether you should do them is your call. ………………………. What can an individual do? Not much, but here are some suggestions.…

Bernie the Buffoon’s Borscht Belt Bushwa
We will hear it no more. His is the last spasm of state-side socialism that speaks its name plain. The coming brew will be of the stealth-ideological variety. Comrade Bernie has bowed out to make way for Biden the Senile. Long ago, my friends, in the fabulous and far-off days of Camelot and for some…

Nancy Pelosi and other Corona Meltdowns
Victor Davis Hanson lays into Nancy Pelosi with severity, but with justice: Nancy Pelosi: Gone are the mythologies that Nancy Pelosi was a pragmatic liberal voice of reason among the otherwise polarizing American Left, honed after years of paying her dues to the Democratic Party, as the mother of five dutifully ascended the party’s cursus…

Anthony Flood Reviews David Horowitz, Dark Agenda: The War to Destroy Christian America
Excerpts: Cultural Marxism is but the latest form of the cultural cancer now metastasizing throughout the body politic. (Marxism-Leninism was only the deadliest form, not the first, but even today old-fashioned Communism does not lack adherents.)

Break Contact with Political Opponents?
Should one break off contact with those whose social and political views one finds abhorrent? Let me mention one bad reason for not breaking off contact.
