This morning, February 28, I awoke to the news that the United States and Israel had initiated military strikes on Iran. My initial reactions were mixed. The attack on Iran was no surprise. We had expected it for some days. I understood why Trump believed it to be necessary, but armed conflict should always a […]
Before the 2020 Presidential election radio-host Dennis Prager described the difficult choice facing the American voter. He pictured the voter walking down a corridor and finding two doors. One door had a warning sign saying “Danger! Lions and tigers.” The second door said “Danger! Lions and tigers possible.” Naturally, Prager urged voters to enter the […]
In a recent post I compared DonaldTrump to Jonathan Swift’s Gulliver. Never was the comparison more apt than during Tuesday evening’s State of the Union address. Trump appeared as a giant, his Democrat opponents ressembled a horde of leaderless, confused Lilliputians.
President Trump delivered the State of the Union message last night. I thought it to be an excellent speech, not a great speech. To me it appeared a bit too calculated and contrived to pump up my emotions, but he kept me awake (quite an accmplishment for one of my age), and he continued to […]
CHRISTIAN NATIONALISM In recent months I have received several articles and comments on the subject of Christian nationalism. There are those who seem to perceive it as a severe threat to America democracy. I believe these fears are very much overblown. What is Christian nationalism? Most American Christians are patriotic citizens. They believe that God […]
I thought Marco Rubio’s speech at the European Security Conference was brilliant. He eloquently stated many of the thoughts I’ve tried to express in the eight years I have published this blog. Rubio’s principal theme was that Europe and America must band together to protect our most precious heritage. That heritage is Western Civilization and […]
In a comment on my recent blog post on immigration, Dabir Dalton wrote that “Perception and Optics are king,” M. Dalton is absolutely correct. The Trump administration gets bad coverage from a very hostile and often dishonest legacy media. It must fight especially hard to change the general public’s view and create a positive image […]
The Democratic Party and their allies in the mainstream media appear to have taken the high ground in the battle over immigration. Their marked success in this area has given them a powerful tool that they hope to exploit in the 2026 midterm elections. In the meantime, the Republicans are relying on anticipated explosive economic […]
President Trump has stepped in it again. He has called down the wrath and indignation of both Democrats and Republicans for his recent portrayal of Barack Obama and Michelle as apes. It occurred in a political meme appearing on Truth Social, and immediately there were cries of racism. This morning, February 7, I had an […]
ICE is getting a bad press. Perhaps they deserve it, but I’m not so sure. Certainly they need a better public relations team. I question ICE tactics in Minneapolis. But much of the problem springs from an uncooperative attitude on the part of local leaders. I hope that things will change now that Holman has […]
