MacDonald: Trade “War”

Thu, 2025-07-24 11:00 +0000
Elites, from pundits to economists, are at a loss to explain how that pig Donald Trump could be so damn lucky. There’s no way he knows more about business, trade, or global economies than they do, yet he continues to run circles around them. They predict doom from tariffs, trade wars, and economic misery, but ... Read more

Thu, 2025-07-24 02:00 +0000
By Oliver Bateman – RealClearWire Looking back at the 2024 election, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro might want to send Tim Walz a thank-you note.

MacDonald: ‘Grok Calls for “Complete Ban” of Bill Nye

Wed, 2025-07-23 21:00 +0000
Bill Nye, the “I pretended to be a scientist on TV” guy, continues to garner media attention regarding weather events because he’s a trained parrot. When he says the right words he gets a cracker. Other than installing early flood warning systems in flood-prone areas, Nye said the only way prevent similar tragedies in the ... Read more

Cline: Do Advocates for Total Government Dependency Have Any Limiting Principles?

Wed, 2025-07-23 18:00 +0000
“I find more and more that dependency from [upon] the will of others is always some diminution of human happiness, principally to a man accustom’d to follow his own will uncontrolled.”  – Jan Ingenhousz to Ben Franklin, 1777 During the two weeks since Americans celebrated the 249th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, political discourse in ...

Midweek Memes

Wed, 2025-07-23 14:00 +0000

The plaintiff, Yaakov “Jake” Abuhav, a local resident who represented himself without an attorney, attended that meeting and, like others, could not make out what ... Read more

Mac Donald: Local Ambulance Service Issue Just Got Serious

Wed, 2025-07-23 11:00 +0000
Last December, we reported on an emergency meeting in Warren, New Hampshire, to discuss the extortion payment being demanded by a local private ambulance service covering Warren and Wenworth.

MacDonald: Vermont Faceplants With Woke Anniversary Logo

Tue, 2025-07-22 21:00 +0000
America isn’t the only one celebrating its 250th anniversary. It’s Vermont’s birthday, and to properly mark and market the occasion, they made a series of mistakes that ended with the uninspiring crap featured above. “Governor Phil Scott created the Vermont 250th Anniversary Commission through Executive Order in December 2020.” From a press release following the Executive order. ...

Underwood: The ConVal Decision Missed the Big Picture

Tue, 2025-07-22 18:00 +0000
Mark Twain is supposed to have said, “Never argue with an idiot, they will only drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.”   That’s how I feel about the New Hampshire Supreme Court’s decision on the ConVal case (and the Claremont cases, for that matter). Their reasoning is hard to follow, ... Read more

MacDonald: Will Dems Riot Over Chicago Man “Kidnapped” by ICE after Judge Released Him?

Tue, 2025-07-22 16:00 +0000
This is another story Democrats can get behind. Maybe not “riot-level” behind, but Mexican National Luis Mendoza-Gonzalez was just living his best illegal alien life in America when ICE came and kidnapped him! Why would immigration and customs enforcement scoop up this everyday non-citizen illegal entrant and confine them against his will? In April, local ... Read more

Cardello: Mamdani Heads To Uganda As Some Hope He Does Not Return

The election day for the Mayor of New York City is less than four months away, yet the newly elected Democratic candidate has left for a one-month hiatus in Uganda.

Why Hollywood Smile Mexico Starts in the Lab, Not the Chair

Tue, 2025-07-22 13:48 +0000
When people hear the phrase Hollywood Smile Mexico, visions of sparkling white veneers and flawless alignment often come to mind. But behind every head-turning smile is a lab—a space of design, engineering, and meticulous artistry.

MacDonald: As Sandy’s Squad Shrivels, Hogg Can’t Get His Started

Tue, 2025-07-22 11:00 +0000
Sandy Cortez and David Hogg are like the Democrat Party’s Ken and Barbie. Vapid Communist fashion statements with deep-pocketed Marxist supporters. Cortez pissed off leadership early and often, knowing her BU “educated” backside could warm that seat indefinitely while her detractors got old and died. She supported radical left-wingers who have since begun to fall ... Read more

Tue, 2025-07-22 02:00 +0000
(Associated News Service) Left-leaning nonprofits receive taxpayer dollars in three key ways—through government contracts and grants, indirectly through government unions, and through taxpayer-funded union time—Daily Signal Senior Editor Tyler O’Neil told a House panel Tuesday.  “Federal employees in a union give part of their taxpayer-funded paychecks to the union, ostensibly for representation in bargaining for perks like ...

Robert F Kennedy Jr. is a lifelong Democrat who carried all of their baggage, at least until recently. He parted ways on vaccine mandates and a range of public health concerns that got him the sort of harassment reserved for folks like Donald Trump. Trump embraced his commitment to public health and put him where ... Read more

Opinion: The American Left Is A Very  Real Existential Threat

Mon, 2025-07-21 18:00 +0000
Since the 1990s, federal agencies and the media have fed Americans a steady diet of panic about shadowy “right-wing militias” — usually ex-military guys obsessed with guns and ready to wage war against the government at a moment’s notice. The panic went into overdrive after January 6th, 2021. But now, in a staggering act of ... Read more
