President Biden, press conferences, and the media

We've passed the 50 day mark of the Biden presidency ("America Held Hostage") and the new president has yet to hold a press conference. His past 15 predecessors all held at least one in their first 33 days in office. There's a lot of speculation on the political right about why Biden is sticking to […]

Ill-served by the media

We're being ill-served by the media. Despite the oft-repeated chest-thumping that "Democracy Dies in Darkness," or "Speaking Truth to Power," the majority of the mainstream media is suffering from both Trump Derangement Syndrome—the inclination to take any claim which puts Donald Trump in a bad light as automatically true—and simply lazy reporting. That was the […]

The Migrant Caravan and Reparations

The latest news is that the migrant caravan from Central America, currently stalled in Tijuana, marched to the U.S. consulate there and demanded either entrance to the United States, or a $50,000 per person in reparations for them to go home. This makes me think that most of the migrants are of French extraction: De Gaulle […]

Shutting Down the Government

We're doing the shutting down the government thing again? President Trump met today in the White House with Democrat leaders Rep. Nancy Pelosi and Sen. Chuck Schumer to talk about the president's priorities and the long and short of it came down to this: If Congress (one-half of which will be run by the Democrats) […]

I told you so

I hate to say I told you so, but I told you so. I told you Donald Trump couldn't be trusted. I told you he was a showman. A salesman who sold only one product: himself. Even his most die-hard supporters are coming to the realization that maybe they were wrong about the longtime Democratic […]

DACA, the law, and doing the right thing

Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA as it is more popularly known, will be winding down in six months (maybe) and the media and the American left (but I repeat myself) are in full-blown meltdown mode. A brief history of DACA: After years of claiming (accurately) that the constitution prohibited him from making something […]

What Obama wrought

It was never really up for debate that President Obama's immigration executive orders turning "prosecutorial discretion" into amnesty for 5 million illegal aliens was unconstitutional. After all, Obama himself said for several years that he couldn't do what he just did because he lacked the power. He said it in public. More than 20 times. […]

About Arizona

I wanted to get around to writing a little about Monday’s before all hell breaks loose tomorrow morning with the Obamacare decision. As those of you who watch the news regularly know, the Supreme Court ruled that while Arizona law enforcement officials could inquire as to the immigration status of people they have stopped for […]

Howard Kurtz: Spectacularly dishonest

As a follow up on the post immediately below this one, Washington Post media writer Howard Kurtz takes on the Journo-list scandal and includes this line: But there is no getting around the fact that some of these messages, culled from the members-only discussion group Journolist, are embarrassing. They show liberal commentators appearing to cooperate […]

Something to ponder

In all likelihood, in the coming weeks the Justice Department will announce that they are suing to overturn Arizona’s illegal immigration law. One of the arguments that the department will almost certainly put forward is that Arizona’s law usurps federal authority with regard to immigration law. Hold that thought in your head for a moment.
