Kamala Harris and Alexandra Ocasia-Cortez are two Democrat women getting a bit of attention but it’s too early to tell where either one will wind up as campaign season rolls around.
It’s hard to imagine Harris becoming the party’s presidential choice after her overwhelming 2024 loss to Donald Trump. While AOC gets an occasional mention as a presidential candidate, a run in the Senate challenging Chuck Schumer in New York is more plausible.… read more

Did you notice that reporters walking among the May Day protesters were unsuccessful in getting a clear answer to that question? Most of them thought it was the thing to do because the May Day Coalition’s social media sites said so: No work. No School. No shopping.
Some didn’t know if they were part of a “no kings” rally, an anti-ICE protest, or a demand for social justice, or climate control.… read more

When I think of how President Trump amassed our military force and ordered strikes on thousands of targets in Iran that not only decimated key miliary sites but took out its leadership, I recalled William Shatner’s opening line describing the mission of the Enterprise in the Star Trek series – “to boldly go where no man has gone before.”… read more
NOTICE: For some time, I have considered making a change in the heading on this blog. I am not a vane person, but the photo of me was taken 12 years ago, when I began publishing my commentaries online, and frankly, I’ve aged.
Without a reasonable photo, I decided to join a lot of the columnists I read regularly, who publish with a caricature of themselves.… read more

Memories. It’s strange how our brain files them away. Embarrassingly, I often forget the name of someone I just met minutes earlier. However, I can recall details of political dirty tricks. The lies, deceit and the bastards behind them as if they happened yesterday.
It was in August of 2017, I wrote about the skullduggery of the far-left Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), and the hate activities of which were identified with the group that is now – nearly 10 years later – finally revealed in an 11-count indictment returned by a federal grand jury in Alabama’s Middle District.… read more

Connecticut has its two Democrat Senators Murphy and Blumenthal, and so does Virginia with Tim Keane and Mark Warner, all afflicted with Trump Derangement Syndrome, always ready to respond negatively to President Trump’s Truth social media messages or executive orders. The leftist news anchors at CNN and MS NOW know who to call for comment.… read more

I’m returning after a brief hiatus to touch on President Trump’s decision to finally end the era of Iran’s nuclear threat and terrorist activities around the world.
While President Trump has unleashed the power of our military, with the help of Netanyahu’s Israeli forces against Iran, to do what decades of past presidents only talked about doing, the pundits are ecstatic.… read more

The accompanying photo appearing in the Wall Street Journal, picturing Taliban security personnel on the Afghanistan-Pakistan border, succeeded in again raising my ire over the Biden administration’s irresponsible withdrawal of Afghanistan.
I’ve written about the chaos at Abbey Gate at Hami Karzai International Airport used for the withdrawal rather than Bagram Air Base, where proper security was possible. … read more

We finally have a president, a Republican president, who is doing what presidents of both parties in recent history failed to do, putting an end to Iranian terror.
“For 47 years, the Iranian regime has chanted ‘Death to America’ and waged and unending campaign of bloodshed and mass murder, targeting the United States, our troops and innocent people in many countries,” said President Trump in announcing a massive strategy to bring Iran’s despicable leadership to their knees.… read more

“I love him. I don’t want to hear nothing you got to say about that racist stuff,” said Forlesia Cook, a black grandmother whose grandson was murdered in Washington DC during his deployment as a member of the National Guard.
It was genuine, coming from someone unaccustomed to public speaking, let alone in the White House with President Trump at her side, and the audience in the East Room of the White House recognizing Black History Month warmly responded as she gave him a kiss on the cheek.… read more
