NO-BULL DURHAM

NO-BULL DURHAM

              No-bull Durham. The “Report on Matters Related to Intelligence Activities and Investigations Arising Out of the 2016 Presidential Campaign” is out. “Thriller” it’s not. The Durham Report is three years late, it pulls back from accusations, it’s long on perspective and short on legal accountability. But make no mistake, the Report is a bombshell. In plodding detail, it lays out what happened in 2016 and who did what. It’s all there, in detail. KEY TAKE AWAYS: –There was no…

MIDNIGHT IN AMERICA

MIDNIGHT IN AMERICA

              It was five minutes to midnight in America. I was having a glum drink with my buddy Willie.               “Midnight in America,” he said. “In more ways than one.”               “Lots of ways,” I said.               “I wonder if the US will see another New Year’s Eve.” He took a sip. “Everything’s gone to hell and looks like it’s no way up.”               “Things look bad,” I said. “We have a loser for a President running for reelection, next…

THE GOOD GUY TEST

THE GOOD GUY TEST

                “Are we the baddies?” That’s the famous line from the classic Mitchell and Webb video about two German soldiers on the Eastern Front. Preparing for a Russian attack, one German asks the other “are we the baddies?” You see, their uniforms all have skulls. Now, just wearing an SS uniform should be a clue you’re not the Good Guys, but it’s still a funny bit.                 Question: are you one of the Good Guys?                 Everybody will answer “YES.”…

THE ELITIST-NORMIE WAR

THE ELITIST-NORMIE WAR

                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…

COLD BLOODED FUTURE

COLD BLOODED FUTURE

                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?

WHERE HAVE ALL THE LIBERALS GONE?

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…

BUFFALOED

BUFFALOED

          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,…

DESIGNATED HITLER

DESIGNATED HITLER

​          “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…

Stanford Red Guards-DEI Tie?

Stanford Red Guards-DEI Tie?

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…
