I love it when Donald Trump makes the media talking heads explode. If you believed their hyperventilating reaction to this week’s masterful press conference at Mar-a-Lago, the United States Navy was getting warships out of mothballs in preparation for a little gunboat diplomacy in Greenland and the Panama Canal. And it wasn’t only in the […]
As my wife Christina and I started to walk back from the fireworks in our small north-east Florida town early on New Year’s Eve, she gently steered me up onto the sidewalk. “I don’t think we should be walking in the street,” she said. “Not with all these people.” We had discussed many times the […]
Today we learned that Bill Gates is the latest of the Deep State billionaires to beg an invitation to Mar-a-Lago to meet with President-elect Donald Trump. For sure, he has a scheme to sell the once and future president. US government support for vaccinations in Africa, or some other pet project of the Gates Foundation? […]
With Donald Trump as our de facto president, the next thirty days have become an extended waiting game. We are seeing this play out in Congress with the squabbling over the continuing resolution, the debt ceiling, and a possible government shutdown. And we are seeing this in trouble spots around the globe. The Ukraine war […]
You can say a lot of things, most of them unpleasant, about former Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad. But you can’t say he didn’t have a nose for coffee. He knew what was coming once the Syrian rebel fighters took Aleppo, more than 200 miles to the north. He flew to Moscow the next day, on […]
Politics abhors a vacuum. And international politics mocks simpletons. As I watched Jake Sullivan perform the “full Ginsberg” of Sunday morning talk shows this week, I couldn’t help thinking how utterly outclassed the Biden national security team has shown itself to be these past four years. Little Jake was taken aback by the lightning advance […]
“O give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; for his steadfast love endures forever!” — Pilgrims’ Psalm:107:1 That’s the beginning of what often gets called the “Pilgrims’ psalm,” because the psalmist goes on to describe a remnant of Israel who “went down to the sea in ships,” were buffeted by storms, cried out […]
Having just returned from two weeks harvesting olives in the south of France, I am astonished at the change of tone on the Democrat cable news networks. From Trump the dictator, and Hitler-Trump, it’s now, well, we blew the election by failing to understand that most Americans just wanted lower gas prices and a little […]
Before I get to Trump and his cabinet nominees, let me share the good news: the olive harvest is in! Just over 100 kilograms, four days work, the olives good quality, mostly black, but one crate of “caillons” that look like cherries. Took them to the press today, will know the quality of the oil […]
Ouf! (as the French would say), we’ve got our country back. Praise the Lord for answered prayers. Among the first to congratulate Donald Trump on his resounding re-election victory was Vladimir Putin. This is normal and it is healthy. Putin has always wanted two things — and not much more, actually — from U.S. leaders: a […]
If you haven’t already voted, please read this — and then VOTE. If you have already voted, please share widely using this link. The column below, from today’s American Thinker, has been adapted from my latest book, The Iran House, which includes the documents of the Biden treason in the appendix. Yours in freedom. The Iran Deal […]
Keep America Weak. I can think of many slogans to describe the Biden-Harris administration, but that one sums it up. The next president will inherit a United States vastly weaker and less influential than the one Biden and Harris were bequeathed in January 2021. Just days before the election – on Halloween, to be exact […]
Democrats are in disarray and openly talking about losing the election in November. After Kamala Harris’s disastrous appearance at a CNN Town Hall on Wednesday, even the network’s hyper-partisan Dana Bash said that if her job that night was to close the deal with voters, she wasn’t sure she accomplished it. Kamala stumbled when questioned […]
Joe Biden hopped aboard Air Force One on Thursday heading to Berlin, where he met with European leaders for what will be the last time of his presidency. He is now the lamest of lame ducks. Topic A was Ukraine — or was it Trump? For by now, the two have become interchangeable in the […]
Here’s a name you probably aren’t hearing every day: Viktor Orban, Hungary’s “right-wing” prime minister. To the Euro-effetes, he is one of the unwashed. A Euro-deplorable, if you will. So after he gave his introductory speech on Wednesday as Hungary assumes the rotating European presidency, he was trashed by European Commission president Ursula von […]
