Show trials amount to faux trials

Even after Trump’s faux trial, Biden’s favorability poll numbers are dropping faster than Hunter Biden’s art prices will when Joe loses the presidency. It turns out most Americans see through using government to go after political adversaries. Enough! A Gallup poll recently found that 77% of Americans are “very dissatisfied” with the way things are…

Trump’s COVID Response Was Worse Than We Remember

Here are Trump’s words from that infamous April 2020 press conference about Covid:“So, supposing we hit the body with a tremendous — whether it’s ultraviolet or just very powerful light. … And then I said, supposing you brought the light inside the body, which you can do either through the skin or in some other…

Which party is the real ‘threat to democracy?’

Biden got confused again in a recent speech. He was distracted by (his handlers said) an “unfamiliar noise.” The only thing that might have been would be applause.

The liberal islands of college campuses continue to disappoint us. The handling of the “Arab Spring Break” protests on elite campuses around the country tells you all you need to know.  This did not happen at my alma mater (or most state colleges), as kids had to get to their jobs after school.

Gaza protests are mirror image of MAGA

Within the past few days, student protesters occupied Hamilton Hall at Columbia University and then were forcibly removed by New York police. I knew that building well when I was an undergrad there in the 1970s. Columbia, like most colleges, tended left. The campus had become notorious in 1968 for its protests. By the time…
