Don’t Worry, I Haven’t Been Captured by Our Alien Reptilian Overlords … Yet

Because I didn’t post anything Monday, I’m sure some of our readers were worried that the shape-shifting alien Lizard People had gotten me. But no, I was just busy doing other stuff Monday, and I apologize if my silence caused any unnecessary concern. Our nation’s capital is full of troops, barricades and barbed wire for […]

Democrats and the Media (But I Repeat Myself) Are Trying to Destroy America

Yesterday, Ace of Spades linked to an essay that included this: Starting in the second decade of the 1900s, certain Communists began seeing in modernism a potential advertisement for the values of a mass society of industrial workers laboring under the direction of a small group of engineers. In other words, this aesthetic — which […]

How Bad Is Philly? Worse Than Chicago

Yesterday I took notice of the awful crime situation in Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s Chicago, where homicides increased 55% last year.

There must be Blue Dress Proof™. It’s not enough to have a witness and a victim. It’s not enough […]

Can Mere Words Describe How Bad ‘Doctor’ Jill Biden’s Dissertation Really Is?

Having endeavored to read the dissertation for which the wife of the alleged President-elect received a Doctorate of Education, Kyle Smith tries to explain how awful it is: “To call Jill Biden’s dissertation thin gruel is an insult to gruel. . . . The dissertation, Student Retention at the Community College: Meeting Students’ Needs, shimmers […]

Eric Swalwell’s Chinese Honey Trap

When Chinese agent “Christine” Fang first befriended Eric Swalwell, he was just a city councilman in a suburb of Oakland, California. So how did she know to target him specifically? Swalwell challenged incumbent Rep. Pete Stark, who had Obama’s endorsement, in the 2012 Democratic primary. Out of all the local politicians in the San Francisco […]

Why Did the Media Suddenly Decide the Hunter Biden Scandal Is Newsworthy?

Blazing Cat Fur: On Wednesday, Joe Biden’s son, Hunter, admitted learning “that the US attorney’s office in Delaware had advised” his legal counsel that they were investigating his tax affairs. Yet, this was known long before last month’s presidential election, said Fox News host Tucker Carlson, opening the latest edition of “Tucker Carlson Tonight”, and adding […]
