SHHH! DON'T TELL THEM. Signs that Trump isn't going to win big on Nov. 3rd.
HEH. "Stay home, Biden voters. Stay safe, while you await his inevitable landslide victory."
THE WASHINGTON POST blames 'systemic racism' for the death of George Daniel. Utter bullshit.

[Side note] Also according to the Washington Post "Texas A&M University-Kingsville [is] a small, mostly Latino school known as a pipeline to the NFL." Also utter bullshit - I know, I taught there in the Electrical Engineering Department when it was Texas A&I University. My students weren't 'mostly Latino'.

Go read the whole thing - but keep your BS detector set at to high.
SEN. JOHN KENNEDY [R-LA] calls it like it is.

Sen. Kennedy is a gem to be treasured.
‘LISTEN UP, JACKWAGON’: Sen. Ben Sasse [R-NE] lectures Democrats on civics during Barrett hearing.

Unfortunately he did it at a Schoolhouse Rock! educational level; the Democrats are (at best) kindergarten level.
HAPPY COLUMBUS DAY! Honoring an immigrant entrepreneur who risked it all to change the world.
Yes, it's satire. But as with all good satire, there is an element of truth in it....
THE TIMES, they are a'changing. Even some in the media are beginning to push back.
AND HE THINKS TRUMP WILL LOSE? There has been plenty of winning under Trump.

'Never Trump' Republicans should be kicked out of the party, and never be permitted to return.

From the comments, some principles for a real Republican party:
1. Maximum encouragement of a single national identity. The "melting pot", not the "salad bowl". You're either an American first, or a foreigner.

2. Pride in that national identity. We're Americans. We do Great Things because we are a Great People. Not plaster saints, but more on the side of the angels than the devils.

3. We support true free trade (that means the same rules going both directions) among peer states. Trade with non-peer states (that means the Third World) should be restricted, both to protect our own workers from being undercut (and thus pushed down in earning power) and their industries from not rising beyond making cheap consumer goods.

4. We support a strong national defense. We recognize that the world is a hostile place, and that a superpower cannot indulge in isolationism. However, we also recognize that our power is not adequate to solve all the world's ills. We fight for America's interests, not those of foreign lands.

5. We support laws and regulations that are few in number and clear in wording. The common man should be able to comply with both without hiring a lawyer to pick a safe way through the regulatory minefield.

6. We support leveraging the free market to drive down the cost of government services. This particularly applies to schooling, but can be applied to things such as health insurance as well.

7. We believe in personal liberty. Not "equality". Not "social justice". The freedom to excel, the liberty to do right in the manner that seems wise to you.

8. We believe in personal responsibility. This is the other side of liberty, the requirement to bear responsibility for what you have done. Harm others, and you will face punishment.
I hope to see that party, starting November 4th.
POWERLINE: How politicians lie. The same way as the media - bodly, badly, and easily.
BUT ONLY WOMYN OF A CERTAIN GENDER: Treat women equally by treating them differently.
IT'S TIME
for that one-word change to Nancy Pelosi's obsession.
IT'S GEORGIA, STUPID: Ossoff drops Second Amendment from Senate ad.

And I'm looking to add a shotgun to my collection....
KURT SCHLICHTER: the double-secret Trump handshake.
IT'S NOT 'PACKING THE COURT'; it's 'court reform'.
BUT, ... BUT CORONAVIRUS BAD! Liberal hotspot has seen four times as many deaths from drug overdoses than COVID-19.

Drugs, not so much....
