In recent posts, I have addressed the left’s false accusations that the Republican Party is dismantling democracy, properly attributing their remarks and refuting their charges.
I once believed that the issue of democracy was going to be the Democrat Party’s mantra going into the midterms, as every spokesperson on the left appeared to have his or her talking points.… read more

The left is running out of time, and they know it. With about 180 days remaining until the midterm elections, and 64 percent of Americans believing the country is on the wrong track, they cannot decide on messaging, except for the need to distract from inflation, the price of food, goods and gasoline.… read more

I have to begin with President Biden, who refused to condemn the intimidation threats voiced on the left against Supreme Court justices, and chose instead to cast blame on supporters of Make America Great Again.
“This MAGA crowd is really the most extreme political organization that’s existed in recent American history,” he said, suggesting that next, LGBTQ kids wouldn’t be allowed in classrooms with other kids.… read more

I have devoted considerable space writing about the elusiveness of accountability; how those in high places are not held accountable for their actions.
Most recently, I repeated my demand that Hillary Clinton be held accountable for the four Americans who died during the Benghazi raid and added President Biden’s botched withdrawal of Afghanistan that resulted in the death of 13 service man and women, and the injuries of a hundred more.… read more

The “Nimbys” of the Hamptons
Surely, you’ve heard of the Hamptons, the summer playground of the rich and famous. They work on Wall Street and in Hollywood and own homes of $10 million plus or drop $100,000-a-month for a plush rental, some big names, but many you wouldn’t recognize.
“There’s so much money now its nauseating,” a longtime homeowner there told a reporter for Vanity Fair.… read more

“The lesson learned from 2020 may well be that there’s also a danger of suppressing accurate and relevant stories,” wrote Richard Lempert of Arlington, Virginia to the editor of the Washington Post.
How perceptive, I thought, as I read Lempert’s comment, written in response to the Post’s editorial, “The Hunter Biden story is an opportunity for a reckoning,” but regretfully he didn’t stop there.… read more

Surely, you recall former President Trump’s high priority of cutting costly, over-reaching regulations with his policy of eliminating two regulations for every new one.
President Biden is not only reviewing those Obama-era regulations killed by Trump, “new regulations are being rolled out at such an extreme rate that it difficult to keep up,” Paul Bedard reports in the Washington Examiner.… read more

There’s a quote again circulating the Internet said to be a translation into English from a newspaper in the Czech Republic that I have been unable to authenticate, but I thought I would share excerpts with you because, whoever wrote it, abroad or here at home, it’s on the mark.… read more
Commentary
The Democrat Party is known for its identity politics and have labeled Republicans as “racists,” “misogynists,” “nationalists,” and “white supremacists,” among others.
Worried about their own label as “liberals,” that conjured up a negative connotation, they began referring to themselves as “progressives,” supposedly more favorably looked upon as a group with a belief in improving the environment, conditions of life and a duty to take care of economic and social affairs.… read more
