Jack Smith, Democrat-Lawfare Complex Hit Man
The modern Democratic Party operates like a Mafia family. Like the Mob, Democrats have a specific organizational hierarchy. There are the grand bosses who sit atop the entire food chain, such as the Obamas and the Clintons. There are the trusted consiglieres, such as Attorney General Merrick Garland and outside super-lawyer Marc Elias. There ...Read more
No One Is Buying It
No one is buying what Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and the Democratic Party are selling these days.
Earlier this week, on the opening night of the demonic confab in Chicago that Democrats call their national convention, the outgoing commander-in-chief explicitly denied that he was "angry at all those people" who said he should "step down" ...Read more
Republicans Must Make a Laser-Focused, Issues-Based Case to the People
One of my favorite bits of ancient wisdom, which I have quoted many times over the years, is the Chinese military theorist Sun Tzu's adage that a battle is won before it is fought because it is won by choosing the terrain on which it is fought. Accordingly, as I noted in a column a few months ago: "If former President Donald Trump and other ...Read more
Kamala Harris and the Civilizational Jihad of Democratic Street Thuggery
On Jan. 21, 2017, hundreds of thousands of feminists wearing pink "pussyhats" protested the prior day's presidential inauguration of Donald Trump by rampaging throughout Washington, D.C. The "Women's March on Washington," an extension of the riots and protests that shook the capital on Inauguration Day itself, was not exactly a peaceful affair...Read more
Yes, We Need a National Conversation on Dating, Family Life and Economics
Wholly unable to defend their actual record on pressing issues such as stagnating wages, soaring inflation, violent crime and mass illegal immigration, the Biden-Harris regime and its fourth-estate stenographers have deflected by ginning up an astroturfed hysteria over a random old TV clip from vice presidential contender J.D. Vance.
The ...Read more
The Bloodless Coup of Joe Biden Will Not Work Out Well for Democrats
The Democratic Party ruling class's bloodless coup of their own democratically elected presidential nominee, who also happens to be the nominal sitting president of the United States, is one of the most astonishing political developments of my lifetime. Joe Biden, though clearly physically and mentally impaired, has sought the presidency for ...Read more
The Chosen One
I think it was 2019 when I first interacted with Sen. J.D. Vance (R-Ohio). I had just finished my judicial clerkship and begun my career in media. J.D., just a few years older than me, was already a bestselling author and a tech venture capitalist. We were both interested in some of the energetic and ascendant elements of the Trump-era Right, ...Read more
Democrats Only Have Themselves to Blame for Their Joe Biden Mess
It has been two weeks since palpably senile President Joe Biden delivered the single worst performance ever given in a presidential debate, and the fallout continues to tear the Democratic Party asunder.
For two weeks, most of the left-wing corporate media, joined by a small but growing number of elected Democratic officials, have desperately...Read more
They Lied to You
Lying is certainly nothing new in politics. It is said that prostitution is the world's oldest profession, but politics is assuredly the dirtiest -- filthier even than garbageman, mortician or, well, the world's oldest profession itself.
Former President Bill Clinton (while we're on the topic of sexual promiscuity) perjured ...Read more
How Conservatives Can Finally Get Judicial Nominations Right
The current Supreme Court term is not quite over yet, but conservatives have already suffered notable defeats in cases involving Big Tech censorship and free speech, states' lawful ability to proscribe abortion, the ubiquity of the abortion pill (mifepristone), the constitutionality of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the possibility ...Read more
Joe Biden's Executive Amnesty Is Illegal, Unjust and Self-Defeating
During the Constitution ratification debates between the Federalists (who supported ratification) and the Anti-Federalists (who opposed it), one of the most strident areas of disagreement was the extent to which the proposed position of president of the United States was actually an ersatz king. Leading Anti-Federalists thought the new ...Read more
