Although I’m creating this on 9/11, it’s not about 9/11. Our volunteer writers have expressed themselves with passion and moral clarity, so I don’t feel the need to add anything. Instead, I want to discuss how America is a place in which high school and college students—including those in Red States—feel comfortable celebrating and mocking Charlie Kirk’s death.

A young man I know asked a very important question: If we stop people from voting for socialism or Islam, aren’t we violating the entire principle of our Constitution, which is representative democracy? I thought about that a bit and have some ideas

One of the most powerful tactics Democrats have in the upcoming Midterm election is their demoralization campaign. By downplaying or ignoring news about Trump’s success entirely and by skewing polls (see ), they make Republicans, who should be happy warriors, inert blobs. Inert blobs do not vote, which allows angry leftists to win. To resist this, Republicans must focus on Trump’s successes and be there to cheer him on. And one of the main ways you cheer on a politician is to vote for him, for his policies, and for those down-ticket candidates who support those policies. Now is not the...

When I had the opportunity to interview Craig DeRoche, the president and CEO of Family Policy Alliance (“FPA”), a Christian-based political and cultural advocacy organization, I jumped at it. That’s because Craig is someone who, for decades, has been working to keep America a constitutional and moral nation in a very broken time. Craig started in public life serving in the Michigan House of Representatives, eventually becoming Speaker of the House at 34. After leaving elected office and following a battle with substance abuse and a period of incarceration, Craig found God, turned his...

Beginning in the 20th century, and with accelerating ferocity in the 21st, leftists have ensured that America’s colleges and universities have entirely abandoned education. Instead, they are dedicated solely to leftist indoctrination, focusing primarily on intersectional victimhood. This podcast takes you on a quick jaunt through just a few days’ worth of reports about the complete collapse of academia in America—and to the extent that your taxpayer dollars are funding this, you and all other taxpayers are the victims of some serious fraud. These are the articles quoted in the podcast: :...

It’s fun to treat Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez as a joke, given that she frequently says exceptionally foolish things. And ridicule is a very powerful weapon. Nevertheless, it would be a terrible mistake to underestimate just what a formidable political presence she is. She’ll come into the campaign with good looks, a demographic advantage, a recognizable brand, and a crazy-like-a-fox ability to be politically quite clever no matter how stupid she sounds.

Tucker Carlson is rocketing out of control, and it’s time for JD Vance to acknowledge their past friendship, but to say that he can no longer tolerate Tucker’s blatant and unbalanced antisemitism, which Tucker tries to clean up by attacking Israel, the world’s only Jewish nation, rather than Jews directly. Also, why I like Marco Rubio, who’s a real person—and one with a sweet tooth, something to which I can relate.

I had the great pleasure today of interviewing , Founder and President of the , an organization dedicated to helping children in Israel heal from the terrible trauma of the terrorism directed at them, their family, friends, and communities. Our wide-ranging talk discussed how David and his son survived a terrorist attack, the work the fund does, the Muslim terrorism aimed at Israel and Israel’s response, the reason PM Netanyahu had to reject President Trump’s “peace” plan, how real peace comes to Israel, and, lastly, Trump’s relationship with Israel and why it’s good for America.

The new law in Massachusetts allowing abortion to birth is a Moloch law, and AOC’s decision to freeze her eggs is a weird, creepy, anti-woman way of announcing a run for president, but those topics are so obviously awful that they didn’t leave a lot of scope for me. Instead, I wanted to discuss how an unearthed video of Hasan Piker just a few years ago perfectly illustrates the non-black Muslim disdain for blacks. You don’t have to look far for examples, since Muslims ran parts of the African slave trade for 1,200 years, and uncounted millions of Blacks vanished into the Muslim world as...
info_outlineIf listening to Trump irks you, stop listening and start focusing on his accomplishments. Then do the same for the Dem candidates. Then vote for Trump.
When I'm bored, I watch video compilations showing how to do things better. Each video has 20-30 clips showing clever tricks for doing anything better (cleaning, packing, cooking, etc.). The videos are "show and tell," without narration, but with a music soundtrack. These soundtracks are always horrible.
This video, viewed over 270,000,000 times, shows both the useful information and the horrible music.
The bad music doesn't make me avoid the content. Instead, I mute the music.
There’s a point to his seemingly irrelevant anecdote: When NeverTrumpers start wittering on about about Trump's latest bombastic tweet or speech, or another act of boastful puffery, I want to tell them to do as I do with my life-hacking videos: Turn off the sound and just focus on the content -- the content, in this case, being his achievements in office.
It occurred to me that this would be an interesting test to apply as well to the top Democrat candidates, each of whom functions at three different levels: (1) Promises to the base; (2) personal style; and (3) actual accomplishments.
