Regular readers know that from time to time it becomes necessary for me to go through my stack of stuff … information I save to share with you when I take a break from single-subject posts. After taking a hiatus to host family visitors, it’s an opportune time to scan the stack.… read more

During the 2020 presidential campaign, then candidate Joe Biden told voters that the choice between him and Donald Trump was between the lawful and the lawless. He called for voters to “support the rule of law, our Constitution.”
Six months into his presidency, Biden openly flouted the Constitution with a knowingly invalid extension of the eviction moratorium, written to keep border crossers out of the U.S.… read more

Just as I respond to opposing opinions, I like to occasionally call your attention to other writers who agree with me.
Checking my archives in each of the first three months of this year, I devoted space to the subject of responsibility and accountability, usually in disgust of leaders, military and civilian, who failed to accept either.… read more

In my August 28, 2022 post, I took you through a timeline from President Biden’s inaugural day “unifier” speech, in which he called for “stopping the shouting and lowering the temperature” of the rhetoric, and his current attack on supporters of former President Trump as extremists and semi-fascists.
That’s just one of several reversals we’ve seen in Biden since he campaigned and won the presidency, watching him move from a moderate to the radical progressive left in just eight months.… read more

When former football star Herschel Walker, a Republican candidate for Senate in Georgia, began attacking his opponent, Raphael Warnock, as one “who only cares about making a better life for himself, not the people of Georgia,” I decided to look into it.
People talk about wanting fresh talent and term limits on those who have made millions in Congress, yet Walker is one of those GOP candidates being rapped as unelectable due to his inexperience.… read more

Joe Biden was elected to be the great unifier and his inaugural address was billed as his “Unity Speech.” Let’s go back to that day.
“On this January day, my whole soul is in this: Bringing America together, uniting our people, uniting our nation. And I ask every American to join me in this cause. … read more

Regular readers of this blog know that I contend that Donald Trump’s loss in the 2020 election was the result of deep state suppression of Biden family corruption in the weeks leading up to election day. The election was rigged, but not by wide-spread voter fraud as the former president often insists.… read more

The saying – “the chickens have come home to roost” – with its meaning that bad things done in the past have come back to bite you in the ass – fits all too well with President Biden’s decision to forgive college loans.
In 2010, when I was living in Texas, writing op-eds published in several newspapers, I recall a critical piece I wrote when then President Obama signed legislation overhauling the student loan program.… read more

For years, activists on the left have attempted to scare us with climate change tales that predicted the end of the world as we know it. It was so serious that we were told that we needed to sacrifice our energy independence by supplanting fossil fuels with renewable energy sources like wind and solar.… read more
