Who is Tim Walz?
If you stay up on the news, no doubt you’ve heard enough about this radical progressive, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, selected to be Vice President Harris’ running mate, but I thought I would pass along a few comments you may not have heard.
First, be aware that Walz truly may not have been Harris’ choice. … read more
Commentary
With all of the foolish concern over former President Trump’s remark that he would be dictator on Day One only to secure the border and begin drilling again, Americans seem to have forgotten the consequential order of the Biden-Harris administration’s Day One, an all-of-government approach to advance diversity, equity and inclusion across the federal government.… read more

“What about Lyndon Johnson?”
Those were the words of ABC’s Rachel Scott as she interrupted former President Trump, who was stating that he “was the best president for blacks since Abraham Lincoln, during the National Association of Black Journalists’ convention on July 31, 2024.
Commentary
Watching Vice President Harris flip flop her way in the early stage of her latest campaign for president, I was reminded of a popular 1950s and 1960s Sunday night primetime game show of the 1950s and 60s called “What’s My Line?”
It was Republican vice-presidential candidate J. D. Vance’s reference to Harris as a “Chameleon” that reminded me of the show.… read more
Commentary
For the past three years President Biden has repeatedly lied about former President Trump’s remarks about the August 14, 2017 neo-Nazi riot in Charlottesville, Virginia.
He even misquoted Trump in his 2019 video while announcing his decision to run for president, wanting us to believe that Trump’s remarks motivated him to run for president.… read more

In my last blog edition, I touched on the subject of lies in politics, in which I included President Biden’s big lie about climate change, with his claim that his spending bill, the largest expenditure ever made by the federal government to slow global warming, provides $555 billion for programs that could significantly curb fossil fuel emissions.… read more
Commentary
After the failed assassination attempt on former President Trump, we just knew President Biden’s plea for “the need to lower the temperature in our politics,” as he called for “a cooling down of heated political rhetoric,” were just words.
Two days later NBC aired a taped of Lester Holt questioning Biden about his choice of words that could have fueled the shooting.… read more
Commentary
The flurry of appearances by Vice President Harris this week, putting the spotlight on her, not President Biden, are intended to grease the skids for her so to speak leading up to the DNC convention, where she will become the official candidate.
While these appearances have been orchestrated to give her more exposure beyond the previous short news clips showing her as an unserious candidate making silly remarks followed by laughter, they have given Republicans an opening to reveal the real Kamala.… read more
Commentary
After a breakfast earlier this week, a friend commented on the sheer volume of political news of late, knowing of course that as a political commentator I am in the thick of it.
We didn’t know of President Biden’s decision to drop out of the race at the time.… read more

“What a revoltin development this is.” – William Bendix (aka Chester A. Riley)
It’s almost like an episode from the 1940s radio program and the 1950s television series, Life of Riley. Chester used to concoct a scheme to get a raise in pay or a supervisory position at the Cunningham Aircraft Plant, only to fail due to a miscalculation, and as the program ended, we would hear the quivery voice of Chester burst out with “what a revoltin development this is.”… read more
