R.I.P., Republican Establishment

Cause of death? Trump Derangement Syndrome: By later this evening, Liz Cheney will lose her Wyoming Congressional seat and, in the eyes of the Beltway pundit and media class, ascend to a heroic political martyrdom for the ages. For the partisan press, it’s an alluring story: nearly alone in her party, Cheney was willing to […]

Biden Was Wrong, Kirby Was Right: Albuquerque Muslim Murders Were Not — NOT — Motivated by ‘Hate’

My brother Kirby has a keen sense of probability.

The basic idea behind New York’s misguided 2019 “bail reform” law was that it was racist to keep suspects locked up before trial unless they […]

Despite the Media’s Deranged Obsession, Not Everything Is About Trump
