America’s last truly free market

All anybody needs to know about a free economy is alive and well thanks to social media flea markets, such as Facebook Marketplace. While procrastinating every morning, I review this site looking at cars, lakefront homes and a wide variety of highly entertaining items people are trying to hock. Facebook Marketplace offers a hands-on lesson…

What are we conserving?

When my friend David French — New York Times columnist, pro-life evangelical, and lifelong conservative — announced that he would be voting for Kamala Harris, it was like dropping a Porterhouse steak amid a pride of lions. The Dispatch’s Jonah Goldberg wrote a rebuttal, asserting, among other things, that “endorsements trigger an instinctual desire to…

Kamala: Account for money spent before raising taxes

The Democrats at their national convention boldly said that they laid out “A Vision for America.” And – I am not making this up – their opening speech was by Stevie Wonder.  Instead of issues, they kept pushing this “joy” thing. It was unquantifiable and a diversion from their record, but the press ran with…

Thank goodness the Democrat Party’s magic act in Chicago is finally over.

Harris’ economic ideas are failed socialist panderings

On the opening night of the Democratic National Convention, Joe Biden was given the not-so-prime-time slot, 11:30 p.m. Monday night, for his speech. This was not the slot where one would put a president whom Pelosi and other Dems say deserves to be mounted on Mount Rushmore. Speaking of mounting things, Bill Clinton was scheduled…

Trump is getting worse. Will the media notice?

Donald Trump’s campaign is in a fierce tailspin as his failed attacks on Kamala Harris haven’t been able to slow down her growing popularity. “It’s very clear the former president is unraveling. He’s having a complete meltdown,” Ashley Etienne, a former Joe Biden staffer and political advisor, said during a recent segment on Anderson Cooper’s…

The man’s man vs. the man child

If Kamala Harris becomes the first woman president, her first accomplishment could well have already happened — elevating and honoring the positive side of masculinity. Tim Walz, whose politics are to the left of most Americans and certainly most swing voters, has been welcomed not as a box-checking, progressive pick, but as a Midwestern dad…
