Axios has a scoop: the Biden administration is exploring options to recognize a Palestinian state unilaterally, fundamentally changing the balance of power in the immediate region. Think about that for a moment: it would be the single greatest victory in the history of using terrorism to shift the political balance of power in history. In […]
Alternate histories are always speculative, so I cannot prove my assertion. But let’s face it, most rational people know–even if they won’t admit it–that Biden has been extraordinarily weak when it comes to foreign policy. Even in Ukraine, where he has the best claim to being assertive in his foreign policy, Biden’s evident weakness in […]
Last month I wrote about an ongoing debate over what had been dubbed the “vibecession.” The basic idea is that as inflation came down to more manageable levels people’s feelings about the economy (as measured in polls and consumer confidence indicators) didn’t seem to be improving much. It was as if consumer sentiment had become […]
It’s kind of interesting watching the dynamics play out on a national stage right now, and – even though I finally busted outta this joint for a little break – I was still watching the returns from Iowa up at Brother Bingley’s house. My governor vs the 800 pound gorilla and whoever the mincing miss […]
Jonathan Chait has a lengthy piece at New York magazine arguing that it’s not the right that is about to reelect Donald Trump so much as it is the progressive left. Of course he doesn’t mean that leftists are suddenly going to switch parties and pull the lever for Trump. What he does mean is […]
Beege has a piece about the utter failure of the Biden Administration to deal with the Houthis essentially shutting down shipping in the Red Sea. The level of incompetence displayed by the Biden Administration is almost beyond parody. It’s like our entire executive branch of government has created a script by cribbing from Veep and […]
Philadelphia’s “Welcome Park” sits on the location of William Penn’s home in that city – known as the Slate Roof House. The park is literally named for the vessel that brought the colonial Quaker to the site of what became Philadelphia, the good ship Welcome. Penn, as hopefully most people know, would go on to […]
This makes sense to me. If you want to “defend democracy,” the best and perhaps only way is to prevent anybody who disagrees with you from going before the voters. 81% of Democrats Want Trump Banned from Ballot: Pollhttps://t.co/4yUbGUcOcn — Washington Free Beacon (@FreeBeacon) January 8, 2024 If you think about it, the fact that […]
Lloyd Austin was in the hospital for days; apparently, nobody knew. He was in intensive care and is still hospitalized. He was unable to perform his duties for much of that time, suggesting he was drugged or unconscious. His Deputy, who apparently was “ready” to serve in his stead, was on vacation out of the […]
If you look at the current polls, for what they are worth, Donald Trump is ahead of Joe Biden. Biden’s pitch to change the minds of those who think Trump is the superior choice? “You suck.” New: Biden looks to put Jan. 6 at the center of his re-elect message, making it his Charlottesville of […]
