Trump Derangement Syndrome Reaches Terminal Stage as Democrats Seethe

Are you tired of all this winning yet? If you were on X (née Twitter) Friday, you could see Democrats raging vehemently (and ignorantly) against the Virginia Supreme Court decision, which held that last month’s referendum to redraw the Commonwealth’s congressional districts violated the Virginia constitution. When I traveled to Louisa County for a “Vote […]

Justice Thomas Concurs

The reaction of Democrats to the Supreme Court’s decision in Louisiana v. Callais reminded me of General Sherman who, in proposing his 1864 “March to the Sea,” vowed the he would “make Georgia howl.” On TV and social media Wednesday, the howling from Democrats was deranged and incessant. From a conservative perspective, these reactions were […]

The Ivy League Is Decadent and Depraved

Very seldom do I use the same headline twice in one week, but seldom does an idea as monstrously bad as Samuel Monyn’s attract my attention. To summarize as succinctly as possible, Moyn’s argument is this: “Old people have too much stuff. We should kill them and steal their stuff.” Have I exaggerated for the […]

SPLC’s Clayton Bigsby Moment

There is a lot of irony in the federal grand jury indictment of the Southern Poverty Law Center on 11 counts including wire fraud. About 30 years ago, it was explained to me why the SPLC’s “hate watch” racket exists — i.e., that Morris Dees had taken the mailing list of donors to the 1972 […]
