A rarity happens next week: a presidential debate before either party’s convention. Trump probably should not have agreed to the unusual CNN debate this early. If Biden melts down or freezes up, Dems have time to replace him before their official nomination in Chicago. I would have waited, but where there is a camera and…

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…

The court in New York City has spoken. As instructed by the judge in Democrats v. Trump, the kangaroo court gave its verdict. The jury foreman stood up, reached into his pouch, and pulled out 34 guilty verdicts.  It was clearly a White House-involved hit job. The Number 3 guy at the Department of Justice…

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. If you look closely at Biden’s eyes while he stumbles through speeches these days, you can see the “check engine” light flashing. Of course, he felt cornered…

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. But the…

South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem said in her new book that she once shot a dog that kept biting people. The story was met with outrage and is a death blow to her chance of being Donald Trump’s VP.  If Noem has a history of shooting dogs who are “aggressive, erratic and untrainable,” Secret Service…

This week was tax time in the United States. The rest of the world is happy you paid your taxes; so was our weaponized Deep State. So far, your tax dollars have funded the arrest of Trump’s lawyer, advisors, supporters, chief of staff, director of White House National Trade Council, chief strategist and — let’s…

March Madness just ended with Purdue losing big to formidable Connecticut in the championship game. You know how they make up hats and T-shirts before a big game, one with Purdue as the winner and the other Connecticut? Then they ship the losing tee shirts to Third World countries. This year Biden told them just…

P.J. O’Rourke was a friend and mentor. He blurbed my first book, and he was a hero to many of us libertarians who felt humor was an effective way to point out the absurdities of politics and life. He understood economics, free markets, and the value of free people. “If you say a modern celebrity…
