Today, on the Morning Update, the subject is one of my two favorite beverages. One is pictured in the featured image of every installment of this program, and the other is beer.

The expression “fight for your rights” is usually associated with socialism. Socialists and statists fought—and still fight—for positive rights, as in FDR’s famous “freedom from want,” which suggests that the people have the right to receive from the state the material conditions necessary for an arbitrarily defined “dignified” life, such as housing, healthcare, education, pension, and various ...

Bipartisan outrage is uncommon these days, so when you see it, you’d best stop and take a look at what it is, who’s selling it, and who or what benefits.

According to a quick look at the most recent calendars from each chamber, Kelly Ayotte has vetoed 30 bills this year.  Let’s suppose for a moment that nobody goes rogue or plays hooky in the Senate.  The votes are there to stick it to her with a 16-8 roll call.  Unfortunately, the House is another ...

One of the things the Trump haters have become obsessed with is calling your president a pedophile. Given the standard rules for Democrats, that means THEY are.
