Disaster in Iowa: The Democratic Party Is Decadent and Depraved

  Last night’s dumpster fire in Iowa, caused by “technical difficulties,” kept me awake past midnight waiting for a result that never came, and I got up this morning and finally filed the story: The way Democrats run their Iowa caucuses is difficult to explain briefly, but the result Monday was clear. Within an hour […]

Pat Buchanan Nails It

You just need to go read this column. Years ago (it was around the time of the Iraq War, as I recall), William F. Buckley Jr. wrote a column in which he declared that it was no longer possible to defend Patrick J. Buchanan against accusations of anti-Semitism. Buckley’s mastery of forensic method is not […]

Black Woman’s Presidential Campaign Rejected by Racist Sexist Democrats

  Why do Democrats hate black women? Kamala Harris ended her presidential campaign on Tuesday after months of failing to lift her candidacy from the bottom of the field — a premature departure for a California senator once heralded as a top-tier contender for the nomination.

Jenean Hampton, and polls indicate a surprising tight race in a state that Trump won by a landslide in 2016. Liberals view Bevin’s problems as […]

Trouble for the Anti-White, Anti-Male, Anti-Heterosexual, Anti-American Party

Identity politics is organized hatred, and the problem with the Democratic Party is that they have become a party that is unequivocally against the interests of a majority of Americans: “Despite demographic trends that continue to favor the Democrats, and despite Trump’s unpopularity among wide swathes of the electorate, it will still be difficult for […]

The Loser Derby

Stephen Kruiser: “There is no personality lurking over there that is going to lay waste to the field by providing a fighting alternative. They pretended they loved Biden because he was the most electable, but now the two raving socialists are raking in all of the money in what could be the Mother of All […]

2020: White Votes Matter

Ace of Spades calls attention to an analysis of white working-class voters and what happens if this demographic shifts farther toward Trump in 2020, which seems quite likely if, say, Elizabeth Warren gets the nomination.
