President Trump’s admirable address to the United Nations
Trump’s superb speech at the United Nations asserted American sovereignty, defended American security, and straightforwardly attacked America’s enemies. I loath the United Nations. It’s a forum that gives a ridiculous amount of power to tin-pot tyrants, especially of the Muslim variety, and that exists in large part to destroy Israel

Trump retweets “Hillary hit by a golf ball” meme and it serves her right
Hillary Clinton’s sore loser behavior is a direct attack on American democracy. Trump’s tweeting a golf ball meme is an appropriate and mild response. The media arm of the Democrat party, also known as the mainstream media, is in an uproar because President Trump retweeted a very funny gif that

The Bookworm Beat 8-30-17 — the illustrated edition and open thread
Posters for my illustrated edition have been hard to find lately, as smart people get worn down by media malevolence. What I can find, though, is great!

“Shut up,” he said; or a political discussion with a Progressive
A Progressive who’s losing ground in a political discussion always has one go-to debating tactic — silencing the opposition This one’s short: PROGRESSIVE: Trump is a dangerous authoritarian. ME: Name one authoritarian thing he’s done. PROGRESSIVE: That’s not what we’re talking about. You’re changing the subject. ME: You said, “Trump

Talking to a German reveals Leftism’s cognitive dissonance
Cognitive dissonance is the struggle to hold simultaneously entirely conflicting thoughts. This is what Leftists must do when they contemplate Trump. I spoke this morning with a friend who lives in Germany. Unsolicited, the friend (who assumed, as Leftists always do, given my socio-economic status, that I am a Leftist

Fisking a risible argument that Leftists, not conservatives, are reality-based
After explaining how the Left invented a detachment from reality, Kurt Andersen makes the laughable argument that the Left, not the Right, is reality-based. A Leftist friend of mine told me that novelist Kurt Andersen’s article in The Atlantic, entitled How America Lost Its Mind : The nation’s current post-truth

President Trump — like Churchill, the indispensable man
The upcoming Winston Churchill biopic reminds us that a nation’s elite tend to have nothing but disdain for an indispensable man — a man such as Trump. I tend to be leery of biopics because I hate having my history filtered through Hollywood. It always grates on me when I

With Trump’s presidency, unfalsifiable Progressive delusions thrive
The banal news that Donald Trump Jr tried to get dirt on Hillary exposes Progressive delusions as a collective dementia unresponsive to actual facts. In 1848, Charles Mackay published Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds. The preface to his first edition explains the idea behind the

Just a lot of little things — nice things — for a Sunday
The demands on my time over the last few days, which have seen me taking care of family, helping out friends, and working on What Business Thinks, left me with no time for blogging. I’m still busy with all three things, so I thought I’d entertain you by compiling a

Your opinion, please, about Trump’s Mika tweet, which riled Progs & GOPers
Does Trump’s Mika tweet mean he’s gone too far or has this crazy fox raised a distraction that allows him to take care of other business? Opinions, please. This morning, Progressives and and stalwart #NeverTrumpers were outraged because of Trump’s Mika tweet: I heard poorly rated @Morning_Joe speaks badly of me (don’t

Bookworm Beat 6/14/17 — Never give a Leftist an opening
The past week has reinforced one of the most important rules in life and politics: Never give a Leftist an opening. Block him at every turn or you lose. Never give a Leftist an opening about Israel. As I mentioned earlier, I had the pleasure of attending the 14th Annual

Paris Accord: I am so savoring Leftist tears and hysteria
With the Paris Accord gone, is there a greater pleasure than watching the tears and hysteria on the Left as they face their perceived climate doom? I don’t need to read the New York Times article. I simply adore the picture: A true leader looks at the lemmings around him

Paris Accord: Trump’s brilliant speech explaining why we’re out of it
With his brilliant speech explaining why the U.S. is walking away from the Paris Accord, Donald Trump has joined the ranks of America’s greatest presidents. (The speech begins at the 1 hour, 4 minute mark.) I wrote a letter to the President: Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Not just
