Mike Bloomberg slips in left’s big pool of self-importance
Much ado has been made over Democratic presidential candidate Michael Bloomberg's condescending comments about farmers -- you know, the ones where he said in 2016 that he "could teach anybody" to "dig a hole," drop in a seed, cover with dirt, "add water" and voila, "up comes the corn." But really, this is how all Democrats think of conservatives. Published February 18, 2020
Joe Biden knows: South Carolina or bust
Joe Biden isn't exactly putting out the Closed, Gone Fishing sign on his political campaign. But even he's acknowledging, subtly and in not so many words, but entertaining the thought just the same, that his trail to the White House has been less than smooth and that South Carolina may prove the end of the line.

William Barr’s tight spot and the red herring tweet
More than 1,100 ex-Department of Justice officials have signed a petition demanding Attorney General William Barr resign over his handling of the Roger Stone case. This isn't due to a presidential tweet. This was all part and parcel of the Democrats' next political plan. Published February 17, 2020
Sheriff: 16,000 ‘violent criminal aliens’ arrested in first 9 months of 2019
Democrats never do stand on the side of law and order, justice and righteousness, do they? In their minds, if law enforcement suffers physical harm because they're busily apprehending criminals -- well then, it's their own fault for doing the apprehensions. Published February 13, 2020
Democrats’ radicalism shielded by Bernie Sanders’ socialism
Democrats on the campaign trail are about as radical as they come -- about as socialist as they come; make no mistake about it. They get cover for their radicalism from Sen. Bernie Sanders, the open socialist. Published February 11, 2020
Democrats tee up their next impeachment cause
President Donald Trump, as presidents are wont to do, fired a White House staffer in whom he lost confidence -- namely, Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman. And now the left has its next impeachment cause: witness retaliation. Published February 11, 2020
Karl Marx quoted at Oscars — and it’s not even surprising
We always knew those on the left, particularly the scholarly, intellectual, high-brow elitist of the left, were in love with Karl Marx. And Vladimir Lenin. And Benito Mussolini. And Joseph Stalin. And Che Guevara. And the like. They're just becoming more open about it Published February 10, 2020
‘Christian socialism’ is tyranny
Christian socialism? Make way for the lie. Christianity and socialism cannot coexist and bring freedom to the individual. Moreover, it's not even based on Bible truths. Published February 8, 2020
National Prayer Breakfast reveals a great evil of the left
President Donald Trump created quite a media stir when he stood at the National Prayer Breakfast podium and, in response to keynote speaker Arthur Brooks' call to love thy enemies and leave behind thy contempt, said he saw things a bit differently -- that it was rather difficult to swallow the bitter bites of fabricated impeachment pushes with a simple shrug and "oh well" hug. Well, Trump is right. Love does not mean tolerance of evil. Published February 7, 2020
Democrats at SOTU blew opportunity to unite, heal
Democrats, at the State of the Union, had the perfect opportunity to show their above-the-fray sides and prove that when it comes to politicking, their primary interests are country and Constitution, first; individual citizen second; self, third -- if at all. But they blew it. They showed themselves once again as unworthy of their titles. Published February 6, 2020
Mike Pence on Nancy Pelosi at SOTU: “Wasn’t sure if she was ripping up speech’ or ‘Constitution’
Vice President Mike Pence, on "Fox & Friends," had harsh words for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's speech-ripping State of the Union moment that went like this: It was disrespectful. It was a new low. It was a moment that will probably go down as the time she killed any chance for a Democrat to sit in the leadership seat for years to come. Published February 5, 2020
Nancy Pelosi, in ripping SOTU speech, disdains all America, not just Donald Trump
Make no mistake about it. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's dramatic State of the Union speech-ripping performance wasn't aimed just at the president. It was a show of disdain for all the president's supporters -- for all of patriotic America. For all the deplorables out there she hasn't been able to control and conquer. Published February 5, 2020
‘Cuba sucks’: Reflections on socialism, behind the curtain
A team of Turning Point USA producers took a trip to Cuba to peer behind the glitzy social media photos that show a nation of happy, happy, joy, joy citizens -- and came home to America with a stiff, stern warning for Bernie Sanders' fans and socialist wannabes that went, bluntly, like this: Don't bring the bleak to America. Published February 4, 2020
Bernie Sanders, the socialist POTUS? Better believe it
A couple of decades ago, the idea of a Bernie Sanders socialist as president of the United States was unthinkable. Now, here he stands, chugging up the poll numbers, climbing up the primary ranks, scooping up the millennial love. What's changed? Much, but mostly, morals and faith. Published February 4, 2020
Franklin Graham blasts Pepsi, NFL for ‘sexual exploitation’
Worldwide Christian evangelist Franklin Graham sent out a scathing criticism on Facebook of the NFL's halftime Super Bowl show, accusing the pertinent players of outright "sexual exploitation" of women and children. He's right. Published February 3, 2020
Super Bowl steamy halftime show not amusing
Family friendly has taken a turn toward the pornographic in this country. And apparently, America is loving it. America, minus the parents trying to raise their children with godly values and virtues, is loving it. What happened to class. What happened to talent. What happened to singing without a stripper pole. Published February 3, 2020
Super Bowl Sunday’s sad and seedy sex trafficking side
Not to be a killjoy -- but as San Francisco and Kansas City battle in Miami for Super Bowl LIV's coveted Vince Lombardi Trophy, untold numbers of American girls will be sold at the price of $300 an hour or so to sleazy sex trafficker customers. Welcome to the seedy not-so-underground side of celebrity-size sporting events. Published February 1, 2020
Americans, in nod at growing secular society, say sex work should be legal
Fifty-two percent of participants in a poll from the left-leaning Data for Progress organization say prostitution and other work tied to the sex industry should be legal in America. And drumroll please: the secularization of the country is nearly complete. Published January 31, 2020
Elizabeth Warren’s puzzling legitimacy jab at Chief Justice John Roberts
As far as strategy goes, publicly slapping the face, figuratively speaking, of course, of the guy who's overseeing the process to remove the guy you don't want in the White House anymore doesn't seem, well, smart. Published January 31, 2020
Impeachment trial in a John 16 era
America was built on a foundation of Judeo-Christian principles, rooted on virtues and morals and values taken straight out of the Bible -- and here we are, circa 2020, watching what has to be one of the most vicious take-downs of a president in U.S. history. Biblically speaking, for sure, we're living in John 16 times. Published January 30, 2020
