hose who seek the presidency have many reasons for doing so, but anyone who seeks the nation’s highest office hopes to make his mark as a leader of our free republic. For some presidents, the times provide less difficult challenges to surmount, and history little notes their tenure; for other unfortunate souls, events overwhelm them, […]
n Washington, D.C.’s Lafayette Square during the Left’s latest attempt to create “Year Zero” by erasing American history, the less-than-peaceful protestors endeavored to create a “Black House Autonomous Zone” (BHAZ). As is their destructive wont, they defaced St. John’s Episcopal Church and a statue of President Andrew Jackson. Before they could topple the statue of […]
s 2020 nears its midpoint, some people believe the year couldn’t get any more insane than it has in this summer of America’s discontent. These people are called optimists and they are mistaken. For there is a method to 2020’s madness. A grim recap of current events reveals the nature of the problem, and why […]
he Good Senator (R-USA) was held in high esteem by the GOP. While some party members thought the Good Senator epitomized the swampy corporate elite that worships the false god of Globalism, these detractors proved to be a minority bloc, ultimately not difficult to overcome. The objective consensus held the Good Senator to be a […]
n the taxpayer-funded, cushy corridors of leftist academe, the radically chic proselytizers of hatred smugly define their concept of “White Privilege”: If you don’t need to care about a societal problem, it is because of your white privilege. (The shorthand for “White privilege” is simply “privilege,” because 1619.) By pouring this racist tenet of cultural […]
irst, pandemic policymakers averred masks weren’t useful in stopping the spread of COVID-19. Now, these authoritarians in government, health care, and the media are demanding citizens wear masks. What gives? Throughout this COVID-19 pandemic, by their own admissions and actions, the pandemic policymakers have been wrong. Egregious and injuriously errant models regarding mortality and hospitalizations; […]
n a blockbuster first, B.S. News virtuously presents a public service announcement, because never have the stakes been greater for your betters. During the COVID-19 pandemic governmental lockdowns, it is easy to forget the victims of another governmental fiat. But U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) can never forget these victims. Thanks to the Speaker’s […]
scar Wilde once observed, “fox hunting is the unspeakable in pursuit of the inedible.” This explains, in part, why fox hunting has been banned in England since 2004. Yet, this ban has not ended the fox’s peril. Illegal poaching abounds; and within the statute itself are exemptions for legal fox hunting. One of these exemptions […]
hen dealing with politicians, the less logical the statement or action, the more political the statement or action. This truism is notably evident as we contend with the pandemic of COVID-19 and its attendant pandemic of illogic. For example, Governors Andrew Cuomo (D-N.Y.), Gretchen Whitmer (D-Mich.), and Gavin Newsom (D-Calif.), have instituted continuing lockdowns—some of […]
n July 1, 1967, The Times of London published an article by its editor, William Rees-Mogg, titled “Who Breaks a Butterfly upon a Wheel?” The editorial decried the severe sentence handed out to the Rolling Stones’ frontman, (now Sir) Michael Philip Jagger, for a minor drug infraction. Rees-Mogg’s editorial turned public opinion in the rock […]
mmured in Michigan on a prison gin gray overcast day, a thought occurred: What if they’re wrong? I am not talking about the dissenters to “lockdown” measures or those protesters demanding the restoration of their liberty and the resuscitation of their livelihoods. We know the consequences these contrarians to the conventional wisdom already confront, because […]
t the onset of the novel coronavirus pandemic, the public was willing to give the benefit of the doubt to the appropriate medical, public health, and government authorities. The public trusted these pandemic policymakers would use solid scientific evidence as the basis to implement the reasonable measures needed to “flatten the curve” and protect the […]
ear Mr. President: Communist China is a strategic threat and presents a rival model of governance to the United States and liberal democracies throughout the world. It is a challenge we must meet and surmount, for the world is watching and awaiting the outcome. Unlike many of your predecessors, you have commenced confronting this threat, […]
re U.S.-based media companies and journalists deliberately pushing Communist China’s propaganda and disinformation about COVID-19 to protect their Chinese media partners and profits? Regrettably, it wouldn’t be the first time American media entities served as willing dupes for America’s strategic enemies. In 1931, New York Times reporter Walter Duranty wrote a series of articles praising […]
n this pandemic, we have multiple and daily reminders about why the corporate-leftist media ranks the lowest in the public’s esteem and confidence—hubris, ignorance, irresponsibility, duplicity, fearmongering, and an abject lack of self-awareness are but a few. For the press, this abysmal reality has been quantified statistically by a recent Gallup poll, wherein “only the […]
ith every passing moment, nations are establishing precedents for how to contain and ultimately stop a global pandemic. Because the novel coronavirus apparently originated in Wuhan and was immediately covered up by the Chinese Communist Party, the health and welfare of the Chinese people and all other affected populations have suffered from this lethal malfeasance. […]
hile attending CPAC last month as part of the John Batchelor Show’s panel, “Everything You Didn’t Know About Russia-gate But Were Afraid to Ask,” I had a chance to duck into the main room to catch part of a performance of “FBI Lovebirds: UnderCovers.” Produced by conservative filmmaker Phelim McAleer, the play revolves around the […]
n the days before the tolerant Left wanted Republicans and populists re-educated and/or eradicated, a moderate Democratic friend of mine who held a deep-blue district was engaged in a hotly contested primary against a far-Left opponent. Empathizing, I said, “I know there’s nothing I can do, but . . . ” “There is,” she smiled. […]
