‘I’m Reluctant to Comment on Another Person’s Sexuality, But …’

  That headline from the Washington Times reports a remarkable interview that Mayor Pete Buttigieg gave Kirsten Power, in which the 2020 Democratic presidential candidate said: “I’m reluctant to comment on another person’s faith, but I would say it is hard to look at this president’s actions and believe that they’re the actions of somebody […]

Democrats Are Self-Destructing

  One of the things I can’t understand about #NeverTrump Republicans is how they fail to see the strategic wisdom of rallying in support of our unusually divisive President.
