RAPHAEL WARNOCK, a Senator … if that prospect isn’t scary enough for you, how would you like to pick up the phone and hear, “Hello, Georgia. This is Michelle Obama …” followed by a plea for you to vote for him in the January 5, 2021 runoff election?
That’s the same Michelle Obama who, in August 2020, while admitting that she was suffering from a “low-grade depression” over the actions of the Trump administration, and claimed that “white America” acts like black women don’t exist.… read more

For most of us, those predictions of the end of the world as we know it, began with Al Gore’s 2006 warning that “unless drastic measures were taken, the world would reach a point of no return in 10 years.”

As Joe Biden continues to select members of his administration in the White House and the Cabinet, I recall his commitment that they would look like the country. He has already claimed that his initial nominees already constitute “the most diverse Cabinet in American history.”

DONOHUE’S REVENGE – In my September 6, 2020 piece, “Why We Elected A Businessman,” I wrote how President Trump refused a seat at our negotiations by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. For decades, former administrations allowed the Chamber to write trade agreement language.

Commentary
Much has been written about Joe Biden’s first speech; from Wall Street Journal columnist William McGurn’s fawning reference to it as “Lincolnesque … exactly what the country needed to hear,” to Daily Wire Ben Shapiro’s remark that he “found the speech so pollyannish in its call for reconciliation as to be risible.”… read more

On August 13, 2020, Pew Research released its findings on issues respondents considered “very important” to their vote in the 2020 presidential election. Climate change ranked 12th out of 13 issues, led by the economy.
On November 12, 2020, while votes were still being counted in a number of states, Brooks Hays at UPI wrote that “Even if global greenhouse gas emissions are reduced to zero by the end of the year, new research out of Norway suggests Earth’s climate will, after a brief decline in global temperatures, continue to warm through at least 2500.” … read more
OH, OH, UNCLE JOE, the radicals on the left are laying down a marker for your campaign, according to Politico.
Black Lives Matter, organized labor, and those members of the House “Squad,” have their own plan for 2021, called the “People’s Charter” of the Working Families Party. What happened to the Democrat Party? … read more
I’M NOT CONVINCED that Maine Sen. Susan Collins will vote against confirmation of President Trump’s nomination to replace Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
Yes, I read her position statement against a vote prior to the election, but I recall her thoughtful consideration of Justice Kavanaugh during his confirmation process when she was thought to be a “no” vote.… read more
THE SUPREME COURT NOMINATION gives even more meaning to the belief that this coming election will be the most important in modern day political history.
