BUSTING ANOTHER MEDIA MYTH: Contrary to legacy media claims, political violence has always been a specialty of the Left, not the Right.

RANDOM THOUGHT: Since the Democratic party and its progressive sycophants have shown a propensity to rename/create new names for normal well known/well understood things, I've decided to try renaming myself.

WELCOME TO YOUR CHILDRENS' NEW WORLD: Progressive regression and the new medievalism.

THE BABYLON BEE IS REPORTING NEWS AGAIN: "State Of Massachusetts Declared Incompetent By Reason Of Insanity."

GOODER AND HARDER, CALIFORNIA: Will the last business out of California please turn off the Greta-approved eco-lights?

JACK DUNPHY: There is none so blind as those who will not see.

KURT SCHLICHTER: The Washington Post embarrasses itself trying to embarrass me.

1+1 = WHATEVER THEY NEED IT TO BE: Democrats can't do simple math.

501(c)(3)s NGOs NEED TO BE REINED IN SHARPLY, or just abolished. I prefer abolished; I doubt that anything that's been sucking the government teat for as long as they have can be effectively reined in.
