Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
Here’s a down-and-dirty Bookworm Beat that’s still replete with things to entertain and inform. I’d meant to blog more today, as well as to clean my office, but I had a sick dog and that took both my time and my attention. All is well with the dog — it’s

For 100 years, the Wilson Doctrine defined American foreign policy, whether applied affirmatively or, under Obama, negatively. Trump is changing all that. When the Great War (now known as World War I) erupted in 1914, dragging Europe from the pinnacle of civilization into an abyss of mindless killing, President Woodrow

Thanks to my Facebook feed, I have a front row seat for the Leftist world view, which is occasionally amusing and invariably somewhat frightening. One of the useful things about my Facebook feed is the plethora of posts educating me about the Leftist world view. My feed means that, unlike

When it comes to Donald Trump, Obama-appointed judges are inventing new legal standards unrelated to the Constitution, statutes, cases, or even facts. Progressives are very excited that a federal judge in Kentucky has held that Trump can be sued for inciting violence. Perfectly illustrating this excitement is a WaPo analysis

The real Obama legacy is a toxic administrative statute, a corrupt judiciary, the end of the Rule of Law, and a world that is unstable and very dangerous. With only 1,392 days left in the Trump presidency, we’re already being told that, because Obamacare has not yet been repealed, Trump’s

While the rule of law is not completely dead, it’s dead enough to justify the title for this quick round up of today’s lawless news. The latest federal opinions would bar President Trump from ever again issuing an executive order. William Jacobson, of Legal Insurrection, has looked beyond the obvious

Progressives deny the Deep State, even as they boast about its accomplishments. So who’s really delusional when talking about the Deep State? Progressives call conservatives delusional for worrying about a Deep State, while at the same time boasting about the Deep State’s accomplishments. While fealty to Left-wing ideas is a

The evidence points to the Obama administration wiretapping Trump and the best denial Obama’s friends can make is that Obama, personally, did nothing wrong. A few days ago, I blogged that, we were in completely new territory in America: Barack Obama, the outgoing president, had used his last few months

Contrary to the weight of American history, Barack Obama has set himself up as a government in exile. It’s time to expose him to the American people. Ace nails it, describing Obama’s changes to national security policy so as to destroy Trump as being akin to Voldemort seeding the world

James Brosnahan, the man who represented American Taliban John Walker Lindh, happily awaits the time when America’s intelligence community destroys Trump. The Marin Independence Journal (as in Marin County, the uber-Leftist, hyper-affluent community north of San Francisco), reports on a talk that James Brosnahan gave to the Marin County Trial

Can you smell something a bit Apocalyptic in the air? Things are getting fraught as the Left pushes the social and political system closer to the edge. Our we at end times? I’ve got a few well-written, fact-laden posts to share with you here, all of which are quite worried

The new phrase is “fourth branch of government,” referring to the Progressive bureaucracy fighting exile. It’s time to fight back. The administrative state is not the fourth branch of government. When I said “interesting times,” I meant it. We all knew that our government had gotten too big and we voted for

I’d read about Ashley Judd having recited to the vulgar women assembled before her in a poem that Nina Donovan, a 19-year-old from Tennessee had written. I’d also read that the poem was exceedingly vulgar and went low, very low, in its attacks on Donald Trump, even to the point

I don’t know how long the sale will last, but if you go to Amazon now, you can get Amity Shlaes’s Calvin Coolidge biography for only $1.99. Considering what a good writer and thinker Shlaes is, I immediately acted on that deal. I’m heading on a trip soon, so it

To begin, a reminder that, because patriots of old were willing to spend an unusually cold Christmas day in 1776 crossing an ice-filled river, hiking on freezing country roads, and fighting, all while ill-clothed and ill-shod, America got the best Christmas gift of all: LIBERTY. And now back to our
