The New Meaning of “Totalitarian”

T

Last night, at his televised townhall meeting, Joe Biden announced his belief that 8 year olds have the right to change their sex and that the governments of Poland and Hungary, elected by the majority of the Polish and Hungarian people to support the conservative, Christian values that have marked their history since the beginning of those nations, are “totalitarian.” For such as...

Emails: Biden Lied On Biz Dealings With Son

E

Now we have the evidence. Not that we didn’t know before. Of course Joe Biden and his son, Hunter, discussed the latter’s biz dealings in Ukraine. Burisma employed Hunter Biden, an unqualified drug addict. Ukraine was investigating Burisma. Joe Biden forced Ukraine to fire the prosecutor to protect his son’s company. Then, when President Trump tried to get to the bottom of it...

Joe Biden’s Polish Joke

J

Earlier this year, Joe Biden gave a lengthy interview to The New York Times, a venue as friendly toward Biden as Sean Hannity is to Donald Trump. In the course of this interview, Biden offered the following observation: Well, look what’s happened.

A bit of good news: David Suchet is going to be knighted. His portrayal of Hercule Poirot was, simply, extraordinary. Not only was it unforgettable, it was profoundly good, as Suchet highlighted the best aspects of the character. Suchet’s Poirot is not a fussy egomaniac or eccentric genius, but a man whose unfailing courtesy blends seamlessly with an overarching kindness, decency, and...

The Night They Drove Old Pelham Down

T

By Joshua Emmett Doggrell John Pelham was born in a house four miles from my driveway in my hometown of Anniston, Alabama, about sixty miles northeast of Birmingham. The site of the house (which burned down many years ago) is probably three miles as the crow flies, and only a rock throw from the church where my family and I worship on Sundays. The site features an historical marker, and a century...

The Media Rules And We Deplorables

T

By R. Cort Kirkwood Years ago, The New York Times’s public editor admitted his paper is incorrigibly leftist, but dusting off that confession only partly explains what happened when the media became an open advocate for the Democrat Party with the rise of Barack Hussein Obama, and subsequently, the candidacy of Hillary Clinton. What has occurred since Clinton lost, and this campaign season...
