Biden’s ‘uncommitted’ voter problem bodes darkly for Israel

President Biden sailed to victory in the Michigan primary, winning more than 80 percent of the vote. But 13 percent of what should have been his support chose instead to vote "uncommitted." Why?

State Department is woke, woker, wokest

Yay, Team Biden. It really doesn't get any weaker when the very agency tasked with protecting America's security interests is more concerned with coddling the feelings of rainbow-dyed-haired losers who dress in furry cat costumes and live in mommy's basement. Published February 28, 2024

All eyes are on Rafah, the border area of Gaza and Egypt, where a million Palestinians have huddled to escape the war between Israeli's military and Hamas terrorists, but Egypt's not letting most cross and America's putting the onus for their safety on Benjamin Netanyahu. And tensions are rising, rising, rising. Published February 27, 2024

Harvard leads in Ivy League’s pitiful race to the bottom

The once-fine Harvard University has become a school of disrepute. So, too, most all of the Ivy Leagues. Who wants to send their kids to an Ivy League anymore? The schools are plagued by antisemites, dotted with plagiarists and dominated by leftist loons. Published February 27, 2024

Wise Jr., as he walked home from school. Border control, border control, border control -- it's the border, stupid. Published February 16, 2024

Biden goes low and trolls Super Bowl MAGAs

President Biden, amid the fanfare of Super Bowl Sunday, sent on social media a troll-like image of himself with "Dark Brandon" laser beam eyes beneath the phrase "Just like we drew it up" -- an apparent mock at MAGA conservatives who wondered if pop star Taylor Swift was a plant to swing 2024 elections.

Bold & Blunt: Demonic days bring fog of daze

It's time for Christians to cast off their fears, toss aside their doubts, clear up the clouds from their eyes, and jump feet first into the fires of today's politically hot camps. It's no coincidence that as Americans grow more secular, America grows its government. Published February 8, 2024
