MLB ‘Cancels’ Itself
Now Cancel Culture even has canceled baseball. Major League Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred moved this year’s All-Star Game from Atlanta to a location yet to be determined. My suggestion: Pyongyang.

As a U.S. Army veteran, I’m disgusted by how the Biden regime is politicizing the U.S. military. It’s breaching the sharp delineation between civilian and military essential in a free country.
The Pentagon, backed by the lying media, is carpet-bombing Tucker Carlson, one of the few actual journalists left. He pointed out sending pregnant women into combat maybe isn’t such a great tactic
Promoting his new book, “How to Prevent a Climate Disaster,” in his blog Bill Gates answers a common question about wiping out good-paying jobs for the middle class. His title: “Don’t forget about coal miners and cement makers on the way to zero emissions.”
You’re probably read some things about Rush Limbaugh, who died on February 17 at age 70. I hope you’ll indulge a little perspective from someone in the conservative commentary business from Rush’s beginning as a national figure until now. In 1987, President Reagan got rid of the unfair Fairness Doctrine, which mandated “equal time” for political commentary on TV and radio. That especially hurt conservatives. The first to benefit from the action was Rush, who moved in 1988 from a Sacramento gig to New York City and national broadcasting. But he always kept references to his California days in his...
The Trump Show Trial coincided with my finishing Stephen Kotkin’s “Stalin: The Paradoxes of Power.” The monumental book ends with two events: Stalin deciding that Marxist principles dictated finally collectivizing agriculture, which led to 7 million deaths in the Holodomor. And the Shakhty Trial of mine workers, which Uncle Joe – as American liberals lovingly called him – used to shock any objectors to collectivization into submission.
In 1945, a decorated artillery officer in the Red Army wrote a letter ridiculing “the mustachioed one,” Stalin. He was arrested by the secret police and given a long sentence in the Gulag. That was Solzhenitsyn. Last week Douglass Mackey was arrested for making jokes during the 2016 election. He went under the nom de comedy Ricky Vaughn, after the character played by Charlie Sheen in Major League,”the 1989 baseball spoof. Tyrannies don’t like comedy. Vaughn’s alleged crime was putting up on Twitter suggestions that Hillary Clinton supporters could vote for her by tweeting to a specific number. Only an...
With the ongoing repression by the Democratic Party-Silicon Valley-Mainstream Media Axis, some of my friends are worried America will become a tyranny, with no free speech. We could have some rough times, but in the end freedom will prevail.
America’s Rancid Ruling Elite keep showing themselves a gang of fools who might get us all nuked. Consider the events of the past week, over the election, the protests and the demands for impeaching Trump – again. Does anyone consider the foreign policy implications of it all, especially with Russia?
America zooms – or Zooms – into 2021 the laughingstock of the world. The global Guarantor of Democracy, bombing foreign lands with allegedly faulty elections at the drop of a parasol, continues limping toward a January 5 dual election for U.S. Senators from Georgia, a January 6 possible validation or invalidation of the presidential election by Congress and a January 20 inauguration of somebody who might have won the November 3 election.
If BidenHarris make it into the White House, we’ll see the full restoration of the MIC: the Military Industrial Complex, as Ike called it. The latest appointment is Gen. Lloyd Austin, who aced out the expected pick, Michele Flournoy. Not surprisingly, the Woke Media are turning this into an “intersectional” battle: If confirmed, Austin would become the first black SecDef, while Flourney would have been the first woman to hold the post. But both are tied into the MIC
