Limiting Roe After 48 Years in Hell
America is supposed to be a republic with democratic elements. The republic part, such as the electoral college, the Senate and Supreme Court, limits the excesses of democracy. The democratic element is that, if the people really want something over a reasonable period of time, they’re supposed to get it.
Fire All the Generals
Long ago when Trump first took office, I advised him on Fleming Foundation to fire all his generals. Including the admirals. Instead, he packed them into his administration: Gen. Mattis, Gen. Kelly, Gen. McMaster. The only good one, Gen. Flynn, got railroaded by Trump’s own “Justice” Department, then later exonerated.

ZIRPing the Middle Class
While Joe Biden’s fading consciousness was playing puppetmaster to the other six of the G7 supposedly prosperous democratic nations, as he waited to jockey with Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin – his own country was coming apart.
Trump as Goldstein
In “1984,” Emmanuel Goldstein is the Enemy of the State necessary to bring cohesion to the totalitarian regime. The Two Minutes Hate directs society’s rage against the exiled traitor. Goldstein now is aiding Oceania’s current enemy – Eastasia or Eurasia, depending on the day – with whom we always have been at war.
Purging Liz Cheney
Trump continues to clarify our politics. The latest flap involves Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyoming. The Elites are upset the GOP in the House is purging her from her perch as the third-ranking House Republican.
