Statist tyranny writ large: “The right of a government to appropriate private property for public use, usually with compensation to the owner.”
On this Thanksgiving weekend (like EVERY minute of our lives), the blessings of being American remain firmly obvious to the honest and rational. However difficult personal or economic circumstances may be, this bustling free marketplace of goods, services and ideas provides each one of us the opportunity to work, to create, to earn, to...

In a very long, wide-ranging conversation, New York Jewish Liberal David Samuels and California Catholic Conservative Angelo Codevilla engage in the ultimate bull session about American politics and the perks & perils of American power. Through it all runs Codevilla’s recurring (and convincing) worldview of an insatiably power-hungry Elite that exists solely to control...

Is the time far off when the majority of American Jews change course and fully embrace America (and Israel) in all the rich variety and freedom it has bestowed upon them and to which they have contributed a disproportionate share here and worldwide? To do so, they must cast off the chains of their...

Breathes there a Conservative who has not had to deal with the hatred and irrationality of a Leftist friend, neighbor or relative when confronted with the choice of individual liberty vs. one-size-fits-all, Big Gov collectivism? So entrenched are millions in the dark hoaxes of Global Warming (planet extinction) and Identity Politics (permanent civil war)...

10/5/19: Surprise, surprise. Solar plants increase pollution. A little problem about the chicken and egg: one needs energy to operate these “energy-savers.” ORIGINAL POST 9/22/19: Hoax Folks, Installment #1173. Cynical Liberal/Leftist loons now run the entire Democratic Party with the eager cooperation of a willfully ignorant electorate. No lie is too outlandish or ridiculous...

As the Dem Party 2020 wannabes continue to scramble over one another for the most insane, impossible $MultiTrillion promises to the masses, one can only wonder what has happened to the electorate they’re wooing: Green New Deals that outlaw the fossil fuel energy that runs our modern world; Universal Guaranteed Income/weekly checks from Uncle...

Being Conservative has its challenges. Confronted by today’s Prog Leftists with the inevitable “How can you be a Conservative?! How can you support Donald Trump?!”, the question is really a statement of “settled” science: “If you’re not a Prog, you’re a racist/homophobe/xenophobe/sexist cretin. The simplest response is the rational one: objective reality aka...

Guilt-free, proud Americans (known in some parts as “conservatives”) gratefully celebrate the myriad benefits that come our way daily: work, money, property, security, comfort, free association, mobility, choices, choices, choices. Those bitter scolds on the Left feel free to deplore and bash this very same country and its bounty while still taking full advantage...

The Obama legacy is one of the Democratic Party hurtling toward a one-party, totalitarian America. Welcome to the U.S.S.A…unless. Trump appears to be the one obstacle in their way: can-do street smarts vs. “progressive” street walking, pandering, trawling for the bitterly entitled, perpetually disgruntled voter here, there, anywhere. The Marx-inspired Party of lawlessness, erasure...

We grow impatient for a reckoning. We are sick of being on permanent trial for the dual offenses of breathing and not voting for Barack or Hillary. Sadly, even now with Trump “pardoned” for the cooked-up Russian Collusion crime he didn’t commit, he and all realistic Conservatives know they cannot enjoy the luxury...
