As the Seuss Saga plays itself out, we are seeing that while the left can win the first battle, the right can win the war. 

Labor unions have historically been the bulwark against socialism and communism, and history may repeat itself if Republicans seize the moment.

Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) has released an 80-page report, “Beat China: Targeted Decoupling and the Economic Long War,” which, along with other key documents, could serve as a guide for Americans as they think about how to compete with China. 

Tech savvy activists bursting with new ideas can change electioneering just as surely as the GameStop Redditors have changed investing.

The simple genius of Stacey Abrams’ strategy is that it’s all about the numbers. Strip away the hoopla of campaigning, and the only thing that matters is getting people registered and getting them to vote—in person, by mail, whatever it takes.

The Republican romance with Big Tech didn’t work out as planned. The Big Techsters, confident of kneejerk Republican support for low taxes and deregulation, were free to follow their bliss on avant-garde woke social issues. In other words, the GOP was safeguarding Big Tech, while the Techsters, taking Republicans for granted, acted like good Democrats.  

On the Menu  There’s an old joke: If you’re not at the table, you’re on the menu.  That is, if you aren’t a player in the process, then you’re the one being played.  Just in the last three months, Americans

The Democrats have invested a lot of time, money, and computer-smarts into shaping the political battlefield, and Republicans must catch up.

In the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic, we are seeing power-hypocrisy, as politicians and plutocrats live one way, while telling everyone else to live another way.

The Operation Warp Speed vaccine has shown that the “Can Do” spirit of America’s World War II victory is still with us. At least in the healthcare sector, America Has Been Made Great Again.

There was once a Democrat Congressman and a Democrat aide who spied for a communist country, and a Democrat president who took action.

The irony of Obama is that for all his “Yes, we can” rhetoric, he was content to say, “No, we can’t.” In this, he fit Machiavelli’s definition of the fox-like politician who is shrewd enough to avoid traps. And while the life of a fox might be long, it is unlikely to be consequential because the ability to avoid traps is not the test of greatness.

It’s not Democrats’ first choice to go criticizing other Democrats—they’d rather, of course, be blasting Republicans—and yet the disappointment of the 2020 election has convinced them that they had better speak up.

The confirmation of Justice Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court is an historic victory for the conservative movement and the crowning achievement of decades of political organizing by social and judicial conservatives. Those who wish to see more victories should study the planning that went into achieving this one.

As we wait for the wheels of justice to do their proper grinding, we might look back on former Vice President Joe Biden’s record, which sheds light on his long-standing association with crony capitalism.

Drastic turns can, and do, happen at any time, and yet now, in October 2020, as so many eyes are glued to political events, we realize how much effect they can have.  

The Founders were fully familiar with vote fraud and electoral distortion, which is as old as democracy itself — and they had a plan to deal with it: the Electoral College.

We see a seven-step Democratic strategy emerge to win the election by unleashing chaos in our voting system, violence in our streets, and a legal fight that could lead all the way to highest court in the land, which is currently missing a member.

It’s likely that if the Democrats were to win this November and were actually to propose a court-packing bill, they would, soon enough, suffer the same sort of cold reaction that FDR’s bill suffered back in 1937.

We’re having an election over rioting, violence—and law and order. On August 25, CNN’s Don Lemon said of the riot issue, “It is the only thing right now that is sticking.”

On the front page of the August 24 edition of The Washington Post, the headline was, “More than 500,000 mail ballots were rejected in the primaries. That could make the difference in battleground states this fall.” 

The fact is, Joe Biden is going to have to speak for himself on the key issue of keeping the streets of America safe. And that’s a reality that threatens to really bite the Democrats over the next ten weeks. 

Californians could desalinate sea water, put out fires, and spur a rural renaissance. Or they could keep doing what AOC and the greens want.

The Democratic Party’s presumptive vice presidential nominee Kamala Harris is the ultimate San Francisco Democrat, representing the “woke” left-libertarianism of a place where everything is tolerated except for conservatism and where Silicon Valley’s plutocrats are free to enrich themselves insulated from the deplorable riffraff they despise.

Male Democrat presidential nominees haven’t always done a good job of vetting their female vice presidential choices.

A look back in U.S. history tells us just how much can change when a president is suddenly replaced by a vice president.

In a new documentary on his life, work, and struggles, legendary political and media warrior Roger Ailes gets the chance to respond to his critics in his own voice.

Bill Barr’s July 17 speech to the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Museum in Grand Rapids, MI, will be seen as both prescient and influential about U.S.-China relations in the years to come—no matter who’s president. 

As we know, the police are under constant attack.  Just on July 13, a cop in Bothell, Washington, was shot and killed by a gunman during a traffic stop.

It was with wonder-weapons that we won World War II. And it’s with medical wonder-weapons that we’ll win World War Virus.

It shouldn’t have to get to this point, but here it goes: We need a written pledge to protect our statues and monuments. That is, a written document for politicians to sign, if they wish, pledging to protect public order and the dignity of our society.

Every Fourth of July commemorates a great moment in American history, and yet not every Fourth of July comes at a happy time for the country.  And this Fourth is one of those unhappy ones. 

If Trump campaigners are truly in it to win it, they will have to start defining Joe Biden—and doing it in a most tangible way, so that Americans can truly get a sense of what an actual Biden presidency would be like.

The would-be statue-topplers know little or nothing about Andrew Jackson, the war hero who defended the nation with courage and resolve.

It seems that virtually all the groups on the political spectrum—conservatives, libertarians, liberals, and progressives—are converging together to crush police unions. And that’s a shame, because the rights of policemen and women, as workers, should be fully defended.

The people in the streets creating riotous unrest are in the news, they are making news, and as such, we know exactly who they are.
