Andrew Lloyd Webber emerges as post-coronavirus freedom fighter

World-renowned composer Andrew Lloyd Webber has a coronavirus-tied message for his U.K. government that goes like this: Back the freak off. All Americans should be so bold, both now and in the future -- in the future, as leftists continue to exploit COVID for political gain.

Condoleezza Rice for president!

Condoleezza Rice said yes, America's history is filled with acts and occasions and instances of racism, but it's a disservice to truth to therefore say all of America is racist, and all of America's governing documents are inherently racist. Madam President some day?

Biden has some ‘splainin’ to do about Fauci

President Biden, on the heels of the revealing emails that cast Anthony Fauci as deceptive on the coronavirus, said he is still "very confident" in the good doctor. Why? On what does he base that confidence? As for the rest of America, we want answers.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez exploits own grandmother

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Twitter slammed the former president, Donald Trump, for failing to provide money to her Hurricane Maria-victimized and ailing grandmother, whom she now says is being forced to live in subpar housing. Thine, not mine: It's the socialist way.

COVID-19 vaccine status a private affair

Remember the days when personal medical and health decisions stayed personal? The coronavirus has changed all that. Fear and ignorance driven by a politically exploitative class of political exploiters have changed all that.

Americans grow ‘very dissatisfied’ with nation’s morals

It's no coincidence that at the same time America is growing increasing dissatisfied with the moral drift of the nation that many other polls and surveys show the citizenry is growing much more secular, that the churches are growing silent, that the pews are remaining empty.

Trump Train only grows stronger in face of attacks

The more the RINOs, the more the Democrats, the more the haters in the elitist camps and leftist camps and globalist camps attack Donald Trump, the more the people of America rally around the former president. It's like a Newton's Law thing.

States’ rights to the rescue

In Founding Fathers' days, it was the Federalists versus the Anti-Federalists. In Joe Biden's presidential days, it's the radical environmentalists versus the state treasurers. And watch and wait: If states stand strong, they'll get the win on this one.

Legal battles are brewing over forced COVID-19 vaccines

Rutgers University may think it's taking the high ground by mandating returning students either get the coronavirus vaccine or get out. But class action to the rescue. Angry Americans fighting to keep in place their basic rights of informed consent have a tough law firm in their corner. Good.

Joe Biden, executively ordering America’s way to fascism

Joe Biden has just used his presidential perch to order the nation's companies to obey and abide by strict government regulations tied to environmentalism and climate change. He's just used his presidential powers to order an end to America's free markets. To America's freedoms.

Marjorie Taylor Greene blasts another whiny communist: Robert Reich

Robert Reich doesn't call himself a communist; he thinks of himself as a social justice warrior, fighting for the people. But that's what all communists say about their communist selves, especially the intellectual class of communists to which Reich belongs.

Time to take back control of your health choices from Big Brother

So what if Jane Free and Joe Liberty down the street choose not to wear masks or get vaccinated? You're protected. You're good to go. Carry on. Move on. Even more: Mind your own business. Because after all, in America, health care is a personal choice.

Anthony Fauci plummets in polls

Anthony Fauci, the face of pandemic policy for more than a year, is losing luster with voters -- meaning, losing the ability to influence how voters live their lives. And it's about time.

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot is a raging racist

Imagine if President Donald Trump, while in the White House, told the pool of press people that for his two-year in-office anniversary, he was going to grant special one-on-one interviews -- but only to Caucasians. That's what Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot, a black Democrat, just did.

Bill Gates crumbles on his own smug immorality

The Founding Fathers warned us that a nation without a people guided by a moral compass from above would crumble in a morass of decadence, deception and other cultural declines, bringing with it the political world and the limited government system. Witness Bill Gates.
