The Other McCain

Ace Destroys ‘Retard’ AOC

This is so deliciously good I don’t want to spoil its laugh-out-loud awesomeness by attempting to excerpt it. Honestly, I’ve tried to ignore the Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez phenomenon, mainly because there are so many others who daily point out her remarkable stupidity, and it feels like unnecessary dogpiling for me to join in.  

Just Got Off the Phone . . .

. . . with the press spokeswoman for Marianne Williamson’s presidential campaign, to whom I found it necessary to explain: How I managed to pick not one, but two dark-horse candidates (first Herman Cain and then Rick Santorum) who became contenders in the 2012 Republican primary campaign; and I don’t do “gotcha” journalism. I’m not […]

#Marianne2020: Let’s Make This Happen

  Lawrence Person has a roundup on the emerging Democrat 2020 presidential field and, buried deep down in his massive linkfest is the news that Hillary Clinton’s former “spiritual adviser” Marianne Williamson has launched a campaign for president. He links this news article from the Keene (N.H.) Sentinel Source: Hoping to bring “a massive infusion […]

News Media: Our Moral Superiors

  David Sirota is a “journalist” in the same sense that George Stephanopoulos and Chris Matthews are “journalists,” i.e., Democrat political operatives employed by the liberal media. Like all members of the media elite, journalists think of themselves as Our Moral Superiors. They’re better than us, and expect us to be grateful for their tutelage, […]

The $100 Trillion Woman

  Elizabeth Warren wants to spend, spend, spend: Sen. Warren believes she knows the way into Americans’ hearts: Lots of government spending. In her CNN townhall Monday night, Sen. Warren responded to almost every question with a proposed new government program. Over the course of the 80 minute forum, Sen. Warren endorsed Medicare-for-All, slavery reparations, […]

Robert Francis ‘Beto’ O’Rourke

  Shane Ryan is the kind of Democrat who feels that Barack Obama was insufficiently progressive, and he won’t get fooled again: What, exactly, is Beto O’Rourke’s appeal? It’s not policy-oriented, and it’s not identity-based. He’s independently rich, and despite his grab at exoticism by transforming “Robert” into “Beto,” he’s white. As the Vanity Fair […]

One Hundred Trillion Dollars: Zimbabwe, Hyper-Inflation and the ‘Green New Deal’

  You might think $100,000,000,000,000 is a lot of money, but in Zimbabwe’s currency, it was equivalent to 40 cents on the U.S. dollar in 2015. What happened to Zimbabwe is difficult to describe without sounding racist. On the other hand, basically the same thing has happened in Venezuela, so the idiocy that causes hyperinflation […]

Sanders Aide Who Used ‘Dual Allegiance’ Smear Against Jews Is an Illegal Alien

  Interesting developments: A spokeswoman for Bernie Sanders’ presidential campaign apologized Tuesday after questioning whether the “American-Jewish community has a dual allegiance to the state of Israel” — a comment condemned by Jewish leaders across the political spectrum as having anti-Semitic overtones. “In a conversation on Facebook, I used some language that I see now […]
