Looks like the Culture Cold War just got hot. Does Bud Light mark the Concord Bridge moment of the Normies’ fight against the Elitists? Is Bud Light’s embrace of transgender the high-water mark of Elite’s roughshod ride over Normal America? Or just a quick Prague Spring to be stamped down by the Elite’s commanding heights? Hard to say. Either way, the battle has been joined. And over Bud Light… of all things? Revolutions spark over the weirdest stuff—think…
Forward into the past! Recently, the new redistricted Democrat majorities in Michigan’s House and Senate voted to repeal the state’s 2012 Right to Work law. Democrat Governor Gretchen Whitmer proudly signed the bill. It was a bell-ringing triumph for some of Michigan’s most powerful progressive players, who celebrated after their victory, at that noted hangout for Lansing insiders: DinoTroppo’s. “Three cheers and raise your glasses!” shouted the Stegosaurus. “Hip! Hip!” “Hooray!” the Diplodocus stomped his feet and…
Where have all the liberals gone? Sounds like a plaintive 1960s anti-war song. But for years Americans talked about liberal-this and liberal-that. The Democratic Party was proudly liberal. They were everywhere, but guess what? I’m looking around and I don’t see any. Bloom County, 1982 First let’s get the terms straight. The term “liberal” originally meant something like today’s “libertarian.” In the late 18th, early 19th Centuries, “liberal” meant liberty. Liberal philosophy and government were distinct from the authority…
Insurrection losing steam? For two years the term “January 6th” or J6 has been a scary boogie man. The riot at the Capitol was brand-named the “Insurrection.” The poster child was Jacob Chansley, aka Buffalo Helmet Guy aka QAnon Shaman. Lock him up! Well, the Feds just let the Buffalo Guy roam. Why release him? “Just routine,” the Feds say. However, this immediately follows the dump of J6 footage of the Capitol that day,…
“Hitler’s back!” That’s newsflash. The return of Donald Trump to the forefront of national attention has the expected audience screaming like Tokyo commuters seeing Godzilla out the window. But embedded in the wails is the long-familiar idea: Donald Trump is Hitler. Not just “Hitler-ish” but the bad old Der Fuhrer himself. “But over the last weeks and months, Trump has been channeling Hitler and Mussolini…” from Salon. Of course “channeling Mussolini” is almost an…
I’m interested in possible ties between DEI Dean Tirien Steinbach and the Stanford National Lawyers Guild students who disrupted the talk by Federal Judge Stuart K. Duncan. Did Dean Steinbach collude with the protest group? She showed up with pre-printed, prepared remarks, clearly ready to play a role in the incident. The Stanford Shoutdown was classic Red Guard tactics. We should remember the Maoist Red Guards were not a spontaneous uprising of kids, but a force inspired and directed by…
So Trump’s going to be indicted by the current New York District Attorney, who’s totally a non-partisan servant of the justice system. I’m all over social media and many of my friends are totally giddy. Trump is finally going to be put away forever and the Menace of Our Latest Hitler (as opposed to Yesterday’s Hitler—R.Reagan, G. Bush Sr., G.W. Bush) will be ended with people’s justice served. One nice lady I know has already bought the campaign and…
Talk about bank shots! Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) collapsed and was shut down last week, in the biggest bank failure since the 2008 meltdown. New York based Signature Bank soon followed. What’s going on? Bank-A-Geddon? Margin Call 2? So far it seems the line is being held, and some depositors are getting money. But what happened? Here’s how banks work: Mary deposits money in Bob’s Bank. Bob pays you interest using your money. Bob lends the money you…
So, Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene wants a National Divorce? “We need a national divorce. We need to separate by red states and blue states and shrink the federal government,” the Georgia Republican Greene wrote in a separate tweet on Presidents Day. Say what? “Separate by red states and blue states?” “To avoid a civil war?” Hon, the last divorce caused the Civil War: custody dispute over Fort Sumpter. Separate into what? Different countries? Who gets custody of the armed forces?…
