“I wish he was {expletive} dead.” That new era of unity didn’t last very long. A now-fired Nebraska Democratic party official links healthcare reform to last week’s Alexandria shooting, and there’s audio. Oddly enough, you have to dig … [Read More...]

The shortsightedness of “Denounce and Preserve”
The response to Senators Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, Ron Johnson, and Mike Lee’s statement over “Obamacare Light” or Better Care Reconciliation Act of 2017 or McConnellcare or whatever you want to call it has been cynical, at best. AP suggested it was … [Read More...]

The Qatar Crisis and the Absurd Saudi Ultimatum
The Saudis and their allies have presented Qatar with a maximalist set of demands that seem designed to be rejected: Saudi Arabia and its allies presented Qatar with a list of demands to end a three-week diplomatic crisis that has roiled the Gulf, the Associated Press reported. The 13-point list includes shutting the Al-Jazeera TV […]
Refusing An American Childhood
Meet the new neighbors (JKom/Shutterstock) Hey everybody, I’m not posting so much right now because I’m at a classical education conference, and gave two talks today. Tomorrow I should have a couple of good interviews up, though. Just wanted to let you know that I’m fine. It’s touching (seriously) when some of you will see […]
Just what we don’t need: Obamacare-lite
The GOP Senate’s version of what is ostensibly an Obamacare repeal and replace bill is nothing more than Obamacarelite. While it eliminates the Obamacare coverage mandate – which was an unconscionable and unconstitutional (despite SCOTUS’s ruling to the contrary) provision for control – it keeps in place large government subsidies for people and insurance companies. […]
Losing your Ossoff
How many times will the Democrats fall on their faces before they learn that bad candidates can — and will — overcome nearly any advantage? Last year, the angry old lady the Democratic Party chose to carry their banner into the 2016 presidential fray told America, during a nationally televised debate no less, that she […]
Killing the City Won’t Save the Small Town
The urban-rural divide in this country is real and growing. The economic recovery from the Great Recession has been largely limited to a handful of metropolitan areas, especially the Boston-Washington corridor and the Pacific Coast. Cities like San Francisco, New York, and Boston continue to set records for housing costs, according to The Economist, while […]
GA-06: Hey Democrats, you wasted $30 million for your guy to barely break 48 percent
The special election in Georgia’s sixth congressional district is over. It was insanely expensive, the most expensive in U.S. history for a House race. Close to $50 million was spent on his duel between Democrat Jon Ossoff and Republican Karen Handel. The end result was Handel winning 52/48 in this Peach State beatdown. Ossoff had […]
Should we really start spending over $400M each just to launch military rockets?
Who’s up for a fresh round of the always popular game, guess how the government is wasting your money now? Sometimes the quiz questions involve boring old stories about $30,000 toilet seats or $100K hammers. Those are fun, of course, but they don’t really add up to a hill of beans compared to what the […]
Pelosi to critics: Let’s face it, I’m an “astute leader” and “master legislator”
This plays like a cross between Captain Queeg talking about the missing strawberries and Ron Burgundy talking about how his apartment smells of mahogany. How often do you see a 77-year-old forced to make the case publicly that they shouldn’t be fired from a job after years of terrible performance? The answer, I guess: “Very […]
Trump’s desire for more law enforcement is “surreal” on the Left
The #RESIST! Trump movement generates all sorts of opposition to various initiatives proposed by the President, many of which I can understand, even if I don’t agree with them. Some people don’t like his emphasis on reducing illegal immigration because they don’t think it’s a problem. Others don’t want to see him reduce the size […]
Sure, let’s chat about Jared Kushner’s security clearance
Allahpundit recently called him the world’s most powerful man. (If a strangely silent one for some reason.) Depending on how you sort through the mountain of White House announcements, press releases, nameless sources and wild-eyed speculation, he may control up to half of the government. He’s Jared Kushner, a guy leading a fairly charmed life […]
