Topping my current list is New York’s delusional Democrat Governor Andrew Cuomo, who said, “Santa’s going to be very good to me. I can tell. I worked hard this year.”
Tell that to the families of those who lost loved ones in New York’s nursing homes, Governor, because you ordered those facilities to take in Covid-19 patients, while you had more than enough facilities – the Javits Center, the Mercy Ship, and the Samaritan’s Purse field hospital in Central Park – you could have used.… read more
Commentary
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.”
“The Biden appointment process reminds us that diversity in practice is preponderantly political, which is to say, divisive.”… read more

NOTE: On November 25, 2020, I devoted this space to the topic of climate change, ranked 12th out of 13 issues voters considered “very important,” making it a non-issue in my mind. Yet, it is climate change that is getting priority attention by the Biden-Harris team. Biden has named former Sen.… read more
Commentary
The left and Republican anti-Trumpers are arrogantly attacking President Trump for his unwillingness to concede; that he lost and is preventing the Biden-Harris transition to begin.
Susan Rice, described as one of the latest in a group of “bipartisan leaders,” wrote in an op-ed that the president’s refusal is harming national security. … read more
I assume that you have already made up your mind on President Trump long ago; you’ve already voted to reelect him or plan to do so on or before next Tuesday.
I’m obviously not writing this piece to persuade you. I decided that I wanted to review why I believe President Trump will win reelection.… read more
SHORTLY AFTER 9 P.M. MONDAY, after three campaign stops in Pennsylvania throughout the day, our energetic president returned to the White House to introduce his newly confirmed Supreme Court Justice, Amy Coney Barrett, in a Rose Garden ceremony. I thought it was fitting that Justice Clarence Thomas, who survived the confirmation hearings when Joe Biden served on the Senate Judiciary Committee, swore in Barrett.… read more
