Russia
No U.S. military will fight in Ukraine, but we will fight at home. It will not be a missile attack — not even the overreaching Vladimir Putin is that nuts. More likely he will launch a cyber attack against our infrastructure. The power grid is — astonishingly — vulnerable. So is air
Democracy
I have long called myself a disloyal Democrat because I can’t go along with every nugget of insanity that flows from the far left edge of the party, which seems to be steering the ship, or at least plotting its course. By the far left, I specifically mean the
Journalism
At this time of year, columnists and essayists have a choice of three hackneyed traditional topics to write about -- year in review, predictions, resolutions. They’ve been done to death. Always a trail-blazer, I am going to combine all three. I expect Loyal Readers will be able to recognize
Christmas
Merry Christmas! Really? With Omicron raging, backing up Delta, with homicides exploding, authoritarianism gaining ground here and there, our racial crisis still unresolved, with its parallel effect — woke notions that merit and math are racist. Yes, even with that. Not for families who have lost a loved one, but that
Immigration
Even if moderate Democrats won’t admit it -- because they may not even know it -- the facts speak loud and clear: the Democratic Party leadership wants Open Borders. Fact: Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas ordered no enforcement against illegal immigrants who are not violent criminals, or
Culture
Long ago -- when Halloween was for kids, not infantile adults — costumes were home-made, at least in my low-income South Bronx neighborhood. No one had money for store-bought costumes, had they existed. At most you could get a cardboard face mask — a witch or a goblin or a ghoul or
Joe Biden
The “Fuck Joe Biden” chant, that began at some college football games, it was reported, has transitioned to the NFL, heard at the Titans-Jets game. Newsweek also reported the chant, adding it has been heard in bars and music venues. It’s also on YouTube. Hmmm. Another problem for NFL
Joe Biden
When it comes to his illegal immigration policies -- the chief reason I could not vote for him -- President Joe Biden is either a drooling idiot or a clandestine operative for Open Borders. And while Open Borders may sound good to some, it is a poison pill. Don’t
Joe Biden
About now, with the U.S. out of Afghanistan, some Bidenite is filing nomination papers for the Nobel Peace Prize. And if Joe Biden were Black, he’d win. Barack Obama won with no peace achievements, just a bunch of promises, some kept, some not. Kept: He pulled troops out
Joe Biden
Despite Americans’ fabulously short memories, Joe Biden’s presidency is riding on his ability to do what he sort-of promised by August 31. And that was, unquestionably, the evacuation of all Americans who want to leave the hellhole of Afghanistan, plus the desire to rescue Afghans a) who worked with
Joe Biden
President Joe Biden stepped on the booby trap that collapsed Afghanistan in on itself, but the trap had been set by his predecessor, President Donald J. Trump. The author of The Art of the Deal (assuming he wrote it himself) set the trap by “dealing” with the religious fanatical Taliban,
Racism
Do Democrats understand how much they hurt themselves when they say it’s racist to want to have people present photo ID in order to vote? A recent Monmouth University poll, consistent with earlier polls, reported that an overwhelming 80% of Americans support presenting photo ID in order to be
