It was one of the most rank, absurd, and disingenuous political moves I’ve ever seen. Joe Biden for years has supported the Hyde Amendment, which bars the use of federal funds to pay for most abortions. The current Democratic base, of course, would never abide such a thing, and basically all the other candidates oppose… Continue Reading
As of now, I am in control here, in the White House

Video || Cory Booker Ecstatically Dancing at a Purim Party in 1993
The Washington Post has an interesting piece today about how Cory Booker became close friends with a Hasidic rabbi during the early 1990s while he was Booker was studying at Oxford. Booker, while remaining a Christian, became co-president of a Jewish group on campus. The two had a close friendship for two decades until falling… Continue Reading
Sanders Backed a communist party During the 1980s
Some Republicans want Bernie Sanders to be the nominee, thinking he will be easily beatable. But what if he manages to win? We already know that weird things happen. Bernie Sanders is a hard lefty. We don’t know to what extent the extremist views he holds today are hiding even more extremist views he doesn’t… Continue Reading
Gillibrand: I Wouldn’t Detain Anybody at All
Yes, actually, let’s just release everybody into the country. And then have another amnesty in ten years. Also, let’s start advertising in Latin America: Come to the United States, tell a judge you’ll show up when you’re supposed to, and then forget about it. Well, I guess, not too much different than what we’ve got… Continue Reading
Video || Beto O’Rourke Forced to Do Self-Criticism
Man, it must be tough to be a white guy in the Democratic Party running for president. I’ve even seen Pete Buttigieg, who’s a white married gay man, accused of being “privileged.” Whatever you think of homosexuality or gay marriage, I don’t think it’s particularly easy being gay. Anyway, this below is painful to watch,… Continue Reading
Socialism? Why Not? These 2020 Dems Already Have Mountains of Cash
According to the Washington Examiner: The 2020 Democratic field is running hard to the left as the Democratic Party celebrates socialism. But several of the candidates can well afford taking down capitalism at this point, because they’re already multimillionaires and have incomes in the top 1 percent. Former Reps. Beto O’Rourke and John Delaney, Sen.… Continue Reading
Pro-Trump PAC Releases “Creepy Joe” Ad
What does this say to me? It says the Trump people think Biden is going to run and they want to try to blow him up on the launchpad. That is, they’re afraid of him. Continue Reading
Soaring Democratic 2020 Candidate Pete Buttigieg’s Dad was a Marxist
Well, he wouldn’t be the first president raised by Marxists. Know what I mean? Pete Buttigieg presents himself as a “capitalist.” His policies, while not exactly Marxist, would be an assault on capitalism, like those of most members of the 2020 field. Meantime, Buttigieg has raised $7 million and was third in a recent Iowa… Continue Reading
Democrats Give Up on Impeachment
Looks like they’re stuck with President Trump until at least January 2021. According to the Washington Post, which reported the following, no doubt with great sadness: House Democrats conceded Monday that the possibility of impeachment proceedings against President Trump is over, at least for now — marking a dramatic retreat in the wake of the… Continue Reading
Trump Can Now Ride the Mueller Report Straight to Reelection
From a piece I have running Monday on the NBC News website: The news that special counsel Robert Mueller found no proof that the Trump campaign colluded with Russia is much worse for Democrats than it appears. Because the vehicle for destroying President Donald Trump has crashed so spectacularly that Trump will reconstruct it into the campaign bus that… Continue Reading
Economic Models Point to Trump Landslide
Trump landslide? Huh? It could happen. The bottom line is that things are going well. And the current situation is not like that faced by George H.W. Bush in 1992, when people were ready for a change — President Trump will have only been in office for less than four years on Election Day. If… Continue Reading
New Top Bernie Sanders Aide Applauded Venezuela’s Chavez
Many people don’t fully appreciate what’s going on here. Bernie looks sort of benign, like a cranky Jewish grandpa from Brooklyn. But what he is, is a hard-core socialist. Ironic that the media believe democracy is imperiled by Donald Trump while they think an extremist from the left who honeymooned in the Soviet Union will… Continue Reading
