Outright Lying, Flip Flops and Character

Commentary

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

Can Harris Beat Trump? Stay Tuned

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.

Turning Down the Temperature of the Rhetoric is One Thing, But Politics is Politics

Commentary

After publishing yesterday’s edition on the subject of President Biden’s heated rhetoric with a downright dirty personal attack on former President Trump in Detroit, I was encouraged to hear similar commentary in the media.

BIDEN WANTS TO LOWER THE TEMPERAURE ON RHETORIC.

I noted that even the left-leaning New York Times reported the reversal in Biden’s messaging since he began his election campaign. … read more

Biden’s Personal Attack on Trump in Detroit Cannot be Discounted Out of Hand

Commentary

Ironically, prior to the assassination attempt on former President Trump, I had drafted an edition of my blog about President Biden’s sudden shift of personal attacks on Trump.

A DEFIANT TRUMP IS RUSHED OFF THE STAGE TO CROWD CHEERS OF U – S – A

While Trump has been talking about how he was going to make America great again, Biden went to Detroit and other Michigan locations and attacked Trump the man, Trump the convicted felon, Trump the rapist, and Trump the man of multiple bankruptcies. … read more
