George Soros, 89, is still on a quest to destroy America

George Soros is 89, but by gosh, before he dies, he's going to see to the internal destruction of America. How else to listen to his words in Davos, Switzerland, track his funding of American political races and pay attention to what he says about President Donald Trump, capitalism, and the leftist causes he backs and conclude otherwise?

Celebrity Joe Rogan, who's capitalized on America's capitalistic system with successes as a comedian, actor and podcast host, said he'd probably vote for Sen.

Adam Schiff’s media fawners cross journalistic lines

In the minds of Republicans, truth-tellers and, um, sane people, Rep. Adam Schiff is the liar, liar, pants on fire guy who's taken his bloviating lying self from the House into the Senate, to orchestrate another theatrical performance of Get Trump. But with so many members of the media carrying his water, he's proving unstoppable. Published January 23, 2020

Steven Mnuchin puts Greta Thunberg in her place

It's not that children don't have the right to have their opinions. It's just that children who speak on matters of which they're largely ignorant and completely unschooled shouldn't expect to order sovereign countries around and tell U.S. leaders what to do and dictate radical policies to the world.

One of Iran's lawmakers, Ahmad Hamzeh, said in a session of his country's parliament that he'll pay $3 million to anyone who can kill President Donald Trump.

Capitalism unfairly branded as doing ‘more harm than good’

A new survey of people around the world finds that capitalism is being seen as doing "more harm than good." But if truth be told, it's capitalism and only capitalism that takes into account the wickedness of human hearts -- the natural failings of humans -- and works within that reality to lift individuals and whole nations from poverty.

Eminem calling for gun control akin to terrorist preaching on peace

Eminem, also known as one rap world's most violently, vulgar lyricists -- and whitest -- just dropped a surprise new album on the music community, accompanied by a video in which he makes a plea for gun control.

Socialists are coming for your children

Socialists are coming for your school-age children -- and that's no hyperbole. In a post on its website, the Democratic Socialists of America writes, "Why Socialists Should Become Teachers."

Democrats: Killing patriotism, one child at a time

In the years between the Greatest Generation and now, the values that made America great -- the individual call to duty, honor, faith, family, country -- have been, in the minds and hands of millennials, tossed to the wayside. That's according to a Pew survey that found youth don't see America as the greatest country in the world. Published January 14, 2020
