TRUMP URGES SUPPORTERS – During a prime-time Tuesday telephone interview on Fox News Channel with Maria Bartiromo, former President Trump urged Americans to get vaccinated to help fight the Covid pandemic. “I would recommend it,” especially urging those “who don’t want to get it … a lot of those people voted for me.”… read more

COMMENTARY: Radical Left Proposes Federal Takeover of Elections with Drastic Changes that Threaten Democracy with HR 1

FOR THE PEOPLE ACT – That’s the public relations title the crafty progressives on the left have assigned to HR 1, a bill that would change our election process on a massive scale never before attempted.  It’s also referred to as the “voting rights” bill; who wouldn’t support that?

I had intended comment on HR 1 for days, but it was an ad in the leftist Arizona Republic newspaper this morning that triggered this commentary. … read more

COMMENTARY: Sen. Cotton is No ‘Squish’ … Racism in Higher Education … Prager on Education … and the ‘Armed Insurrection’ That Wasn’t

FLASHBACK – In my last blog post I wrote of weak-kneed senators, unwilling to fight for Republican values, referred to as “squishes” by Kurt Schlichter in Townhall.  Well, Sen. Tom Cotton is no squish.

Despite the fact that Vanita Gupta, Biden’s nominee for associate attorney general, is certain to be confirmed, Cotton confronted her over her earlier comment that “there is not an institution in this country that isn’t suffering from institutional racism.”… read more

Biden’s Pathetic First Prime-Time Address to the Nation

Commentary

PATHETIC – That’s the word I believe best describes President Biden’s TV appearance Thursday night.  On one hand, there were those who had high expectations on the one-year anniversary of the pandemic.  On the other hand, there were those with mixed expectations.

Commentary

WELCOME NEWS – A dozen members of the 150-member Republican Study Committee met last week with former Vice President Mike Pence to hash out conservative priorities for the party with some internal division as to who will lead it, according to Susan Ferrechio of the Washington Examiner.

In discussions on the agenda going forward, they indicated it would center on the usual GOP issues – national defense, anti-abortion policies and election security – it would center on advocating and defending the Trump administration record.… read more

Trump or No Trump, Trumpism is Here to Stay

Commentary

Get used to it.  Trumpism is here to stay, whether the 45th president decides to run for reelection in 2024 or not.

I touched on the key elements of Trumpism in my March 1, 2021 blog, in which I recounted Trump’s CPAC speech when he said that liked it, but didn’t come up with it originally.… read more
