Commentary
As a commentator on the political scene, I find it interesting to read how others view the news and the outlook for the future.
In this edition I thought I would share with you my thoughts on the opinions of two well-known opinion columnists. They claim to be conservative writers.… read more

Last week, when the media was all agog, writing about a feud – an “ugly public feud” noted one paper – between President Trump and Elon Musk, I was making notes as I contemplated that story among others for my next edition.
A week later, while reading those notes, one word – nonsense – and the initials – BS – stood out.… read more

When I selected the accompanying Los Angeles riot photos for this segment, I was reminded of the 2020 photo of CNN National Correspondent Omar Jimenez reporting from Kenosha, Wisconsin, referring to the “mostly peaceful” protests there while fires raged behind him.

Despite my lingering disgust with the left over their weaponization of the justice system to keep Donald Trump in courts during his campaign, I’m conflated on what should be done regarding the Biden cover-up scandal.
At one point, I just wanted to put the Biden era in the rearview mirror and move on with the Trump agenda, but facts continue to dribble out, causing me to have mixed feelings.… read more

With terrorist incidents involving illegal migrants occurring now on nearly daily basis, the estimated 11 million poorly vetted illegals in our country should continue to concern you, but more so, the estimated two million gotaways who skipped our pathetic asylum system and simply disappeared and could be living near you, and should scare the hell out of you.… read more

Both of President Trump’s two weekend speeches, one a commencement address at West Point, the next his Memorial Day remarks at Arlington National Cemetery, had a national security flavor.

After publishing my last edition, in which I opined on the decision by Mary Barra, as CEO of General Motors, to cave to the pressure of the Biden administration and overly commit her company to go all-electric, news of other carmakers to push back on EVs came to light.
While I did mention the drain on funds at Ford as it reported a loss of $130,000 on each EV produced, I have since learned that the bet they made on EVs, with its 2021 investment announcement of $7 billion to establish not one but two new battery plants in Kentucky, was a mistake. … read more

The heading refers to Mary Barra, in her tenth year as the CEO of General Motors, now facing another challenge, which I believe is of her making.

With Silverado trucks, And Equinox EVs,
And Buick Enclaves all in a row.”… read more
