“SQUISHES” is the term Kurt Schlichter used to appropriately describe the Republican senators who have decided not to run for office again, in his Townhall piece, “The GOP Squishes Retire.”
Perhaps your children or grandchildren have a Squish or more that they play with; they are spongy toys that come in shapes, including odd characters and animals.… read more

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.
I am sure there were Biden supporters who were pumped. … read more

IN SEARCH OF OUR SOUL – When Joe Biden launched his bid for the presidency in 2019, he said, “we are in a battle for the soul of the nation,” as he drifted off into a bit of mumbo jumbo about ending the “divisiveness that has marked the last four years.”… read more

Having had it up to here with things I see happening in our country, on February 9, 2021 I wrote, “Stop the world, I want to get off,” but the world won’t stop and neither does the nonsense.
We have the cancel culture working overtime to discover wrongs from our past.… read more

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

Get used to it. Trumpism is here to stay, whether the 45th president decides to run for reelection in 2024 or not.
The principles of Trumpism really aren’t new, it just took Donald Trump to salvage them from a feckless establishment Republican Party.
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

While I had hoped former President Trump wouldn’t name names of those RINOs of the House and Senate, who disappointingly joined the left by repeating his supposed incitement of supporters on January 6, 2021, he levelled a full-throated rebuke of them.
And he continued to talk about his reelection being stolen, while emphasizing the need to promote voter integrity in the states.… read more

As expected, over the past few days we have seen little honest coverage of the Conservative Political Action Committee (CPAC) meeting in Orlando, Florida. But hold on to your MAGA caps, you are about to be hit with a barrage of anti-Trump stories interpreting what the former president had to say as CPAC’s premier closer on Sunday
“You can see the headlines,” writes John Daniel Davidson in his piece, “Prepare for a Deluge of Dishonest CPAC Coverage,” in The Federalist, suggesting, “The Ten Craziest Things Said at CPAC.”… read more

How often do we hear the pundits rhetorically ask prior to a major speech, ‘what does he have to say?’
They may be asking it because the speech is being given at a critical point in time – for the president or the country, because of the audience, or for some other esoteric reason.… read more

In yesterday’s blog post, I wrote of the vindictive nature of President Biden, who is systematically reversing the programs of President Trump that have given us leadership in energy. In this continuation, I discuss other reversals that are taking us backward.
As I noted, I’m certainly not advocating rioting in the streets, but I wonder just how much of President Biden’s outrageous actions we can tolerate.… read more
