COVID-19 great for growing billionaire pockets
Thanks to COVID-19 shutdowns, America's middle class may be suffering -- American small business owners may be gasping for last breaths, limping on their last legs -- but the billionaire class is making out like a bandit. Published June 18, 2020
Joe Biden buoyed by fake polls, false reporting
Joe Biden, pure and simple, is being buoyed by fake polls, fake headlines and false reporting. No wonder Americans don't trust the media to report the truth. Published June 18, 2020
Civil war looms, statistics and survey say
Almost a third of U.S. voters believe a civil war is on its way -- a bleak commentary on the growing tensions around the country due to coronavirus shutdowns and police policies that have manifested in destruction and defacement of historical monuments and memorials, anarchist takeovers of city streets and riotous uprisings.

Donald Trump to Michael Savage: ‘This will be rigged election’ if Dems have way
President Donald Trump told talk radio's Michael Savage that if Democrats have their way, the November election will be "rigged," and that it's up to courts and citizens to stave off leftist pressures for massive mail-in voting. Democrats have indeed been on a tear to use the coronavirus as justification for launching mail-in voting rights. Published June 16, 2020
Doctors drop ball, prove why they’re untrustworthy on COVID-19
Apparently, doctors have dropped the ball. They've been so busily fighting COVID-19, and telling a nation, nay a world, how to best fight COVID-19, that they've taken their eyes off other diseases. And now children are dying, or predicted to die, because of their incompetence. Published June 16, 2020
Trump haters stupidly seize on #RampGate as next drum to beat
The left wants to harp on President Donald Trump's physical fitness? Not Joe Biden's? Not Joe Biden in his basement, propped and steadied by God knows how many helpful hands beyond the camera lens as he stumbles and bumbles through one question after another? The left embarrasses itself. Published June 15, 2020
Seattle anarchists and their lunatic fringe list of demands
These are not your peace-talking, peaceful-walking Martin Luther King, Jr., protesters. These are armed rebels, bent on toppling societal structures in order to usher in a new nation, one where chaos rules, lawlessness leads and anger feeds. And their list of demands only underscores their lunatic ways. Published June 12, 2020
Joe Biden is Barack Obama’s real-life ‘Pajama Boy’
Here's a thought: If you can campaign for president of the United States from the comfort of your own home, while wearing pajamas -- you're doing it wrong. Joe Biden might want to take a memo on that. Published June 11, 2020
Seattle’s ‘autonomous zone’ is ‘Mad Max’ movie mayhem come alive
In the late 1970s, a series of action movies starring Mel Gibson showed what life in Australia would be like when the inmates, so to speak, take over the asylum and societal standards of behavior utterly collapse, and motorcycle gang members with zero moral bearings are unleashed on the public. That's Seattle, circa 2020. Published June 11, 2020
And like that, America’s history is scrubbed
The left is on a rampage right now, busily tearing down any semblance of American history from America's public eye. Sadly, they appear to be winning. Published June 11, 2020
Contact tracing is here, and it’s even more frightening than imagined
Never mind former President Ronald Reagan's warning of the most terrifying words in the English language -- "I'm from the government, and I'm here to help." The contact tracer's is far worse: I'm from the government and I'm here to quarantine you. Published June 10, 2020
Sen. Josh Hawley and his righteous stand for religious rights
Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley petitioned the Justice Department to launch a civil rights investigation into governors who use the coronavirus as a lynchpin to keep worshippers home. In short, he wants to know: How come Black Lives Matter can fill the streets, but church-goers have to stay home? Good question. Published June 10, 2020
God’s winnowing of America
Sane people are surveying America and wondering, what's happened to this country? Call this God's winnowing of America -- a time when He takes a look at His people, decides He doesn't like what He sees and allows for a time of great testing to separate the good from evil, the worthwhile from worthless, the usable from unusable. Published June 9, 2020
Militarizing police was a mistake
Peer past the madness of Antifa thuggery and all the bricks being thrown through storefront windows right now and the fact is police have needed reform for some time. Even from a very pro-police, pro-law and order perspective, the fact is: Police have most definitely needed reform. Published June 8, 2020
Socialists, with George Floyd, get their anti-police wedge
George Floyd isn't just a black man who tragically died at the hands of a white police officer. He's become the tool by which socialists, communists, anarchists can topple our nation's police forces, thereby toppling our nation's system of law and order. Published June 8, 2020
Democrats know their time grows short
Liberty University president Jerry Falwell Jr., in a recent interview, said Democrats are making it easy for GOP-ers this November -- that a conservative sweep, due to COVID-19 crackdown madness and George Floyd-inspired out-of-control rioting, is in the works and too bad, so sad, but that's the way the liberal cookie crumbles. He's right. Published June 6, 2020
Democrats, party of lawlessness, press to collapse police
Eighteen state attorneys general -- Democrats, of course -- have petitioned Congress for "explicit authority" to investigate local police departments for evidence of abusive and unconstitutional action. Mark this moment as an official calendar day of Democrats' quest to collapse the law and order around the country. Published June 5, 2020
George Floyd doesn’t a ‘systemic racism’ make
George Floyd, by video accounts, died a horrific, even murderously minded death at the hands of an uncaring police officer who locked his black victim against the pavement for several painful minutes, knee on neck, as the life seeped from his body. But that doesn't mean all police hate blacks. Published June 4, 2020
Drew Brees takes patriotic, righteous — lonely — stand for America
Drew Brees needs support. It's the last chance to save a U.S. pastime from devolving into a pot of anti-American vitriol where police are painted as enemies, the country is painted as inherently racist, the Constitution is pounded as unjust, and the game -- remember the game? -- is just another platform to air political grievances.

Chief Justice John Roberts and his tortured church logic
Supreme Court Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. had a chance to make a stand for America's founding, for America's notions of limited government, for the concept of rights in this country coming from God, not government -- and he blew it. Big time. Published June 4, 2020
