  • How to Hold Your Breath for 3 Minutes

    Reading Time: 4 minutesRemember when you were a kid? All the weird challenges and contests you’d wage with your friends? There’s a good chance that breath-holding was one of them. Who can hold their breath the longest, right? I was always good at this when I was young, but I’m not that young anymore. I’m 53, but I […]

  • Unprotected Sects

    Reading Time: 3 minutesThe television activists at CNN look like college seniors who learned upon returning from winter break that credit requirements for graduation were just upped from 120 hours to 180 hours. And there ain’t grandfathering! Diehard NeverTrumpers attack Trump supporters on social media like bitter, divorcing spouses locked in a pitched custody battle. And there ain’t […]

  • American Steel

    Reading Time: 1 minutesI know people, and you probably do too, who are out of work from the United Steel Granite City (aka Granite City Steel) closure. It’s disheartening and depressing for people who worked hard all those years, thrown into the street because of bad trade deals and stifling regulations. But President Trump has ordered the Keystone […]

  • The Donald becomes The President

    Ok, so, a few quick comments about Trump’s inaugural speech. It was simple, direct, unpretentious, even pithy in its restatement of those themes he campaigned upon, which, given his reputation, is all the more striking, as he apparently waved off the s…

  • Black Lives Don’t Matter to American Liberals

    Reading Time: 1 minutesPresident Trump (who, by the way, has accomplished more in two days than Obama did in eight years) saw Chicago’s horrific crime statistics and warned the mayor and the governor to get to work or he’ll fix it himself. Seventy-five percent of murder victims in Chicago are black. Immediately, leftists, who apparently enjoy all the […]

  • Terrible Day for NeverTrump—Great Day for the Constitution

    Reading Time: 4 minutesOne way to summarize Donald Trump’s first business day in office is to say he followed through on many, many campaign promises. Another way to look at it is that Trump slaughtered NeverTrump. Both explanations are accurate, but one is the cause, the other the effect. First, you know I pay very little attention to […]

  • Sean Spicer and the White House Press Corp Proved Me 100% Right

    Reading Time: 1 minutesIt’s great to be right. Yesterday I told you that White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer played the White House press corps by telling the truth. But the press corps and many Americans have a psychosis that literally replaces some words with other words. It’s not dyslexia. It’s far worse because it’s selective. In this […]

  • How to Spot Journalism’s Psychosis

    Reading Time: 3 minutesWhen your brain automatically alters perceptions, there’s something wrong with you. Reporters have this psychosis. Journalists. They have very bad ADHD it seems. They can’t pay attention. Like kids with ADHD. Chuck Todd and everybody at Business Insider should probably take Ritalin or something. Reporters are also narcissists. No one goes into journalism unless they […]

  • Breaking: San Antonio Mall Shooting: One Dead, Six Wounded, Armed Citizen Shot Murderer

    Reading Time: 1 minutesOne dead, three shot in San Antonio, Texas Sunday afternoon about 3:30 p.m. Two others transported to hospitals with other medical conditions. San Antonio Police Chief reports on fatal shooting at San Antonio’s Rolling Oaks Mall: Robbery: Two men robbed a Kay Jewelers store One Dead: a good Samaritan who tried to apprehend the two […]
