Would-Be Dictator

sunbeam April 18, 2020 Comments Off

Abuse of power was one of the charges that the Democrats tried to hang around PDJT’s neck during their faux impeachment. The COVID-19 crisis has allowed the American public to see just how many politicians in positions of power become tinpot dictators and worse. It has not been pretty.

Some governors, mayors and law enforcement have become tyrants. This sudden ability to control all aspects of the lives of others has allowed their inner totalitarianism to come out. Most, but not all, are Democrats. Most are Democrats because those who would abuse power gravitate to the Democratic Party. As Democrats, they know that it is unlikely that they will ever be held accountable for their abuses.

Schumer Unhinged

sunbeam March 6, 2020 Comments Off

Most of the left has been driven insane by President Trump’s election. As many people are aware, PDJT’s ongoing successes has created a new mental condition known as Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS). TDS is the acute onset of mental derangement in otherwise normal people in reaction to the policies and the presidency of Donald John Trump. TDS makes it extremely difficult for a person afflicted to act in the manner of a normal, rational person.

Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Senate Minority Leader, has now demonstrated to the entire world that he is afflicted with this mental condition. Schumer has lost any sense of good judgment. On Wednesday outside the Supreme Court at a rally in favor of murdering unborn children, Schumer was reduced to shouting out threats against the justices of the Supreme Court. How can this be the action of a normal, rational person? Has Chuck Schumer lost his mind? You be the judge.

Epic Fail In Richmond

sunbeam January 21, 2020 Comments Off

If you checked in with any fake news outlet last week, then you know that January 20^th was going to be “Chaos in Richmond.” Carnage was on the menu since “extremists” were going to descend on the Virginia state capitol and protest.

MSM had hyped the second amendment protest event as a massive assembly of “right wing militia groups.” Hoping to inflame racial tensions around the MLK holiday, the MSM reported that “white separatists” and neo Nazis would be squaring-off against Virginia law enforcement.

Further hyping the “clear and present danger” Governor Ralph “Blackface” Northam declared a temporary state of emergency ahead of the rally. The left and their media allies were determined to set the narrative that having so many people who support the Second Amendment in one place could only lead to death and destruction.

Booker Whiffs

sunbeam November 22, 2019 Comments Off

With all of the impeachment hoax nonsense going on, many people undoubtedly missed the most recent debate among Democratic Presidential contenders. Not that there was a lot to miss. And the ratings continue to decline.

However, there are always a few noteworthy items in forum like this. One that stood out was Cory Booker’s answer to a question on Hong Kong. The question was an absolute softball but Booker completely whiffed in his answer. His answer makes one pause and wonder if Booker somehow owes the Chinese Communists for something.

The transcript from NBC of the exchange.

Does The Media Lead The Coup?

sunbeam November 8, 2019 Comments Off

Media bias in 2019 is more flagrant and destructive than in 2016. And 2016 saw outright bias in the media like we in America had rarely if ever seen before. 24/7 it is literally “Orange Man Bad” reporting. Surveys of reporting in the MSM show that 92% of the reporting on PDJT is negative. This highly negative reporting is about a President who, at this point in his Presidency, has done more for the American people than the last four Presidents did over their entire Presidencies combined.

Where are the positive stories about this?

Critics of the media who call out this obvious bias, are often mocked or dismissed. The media try to make perfectly sane people with a valid theory or gripe look like they are crazy or some kind of right-wing conspiracy nuts. We have seen this over and over again in interviews in the MSM with Trump defenders.

Jake Tapper is notorious for doing this. There’s simply no way that every person Tapper interviews who supports PDJT deserves to be mocked and treated like a criminal. On the other side of coin, does every person who opposes PDJT deserve softball questions and to be treated with kid gloves?

Hong Kong vs The Democrats

sunbeam November 2, 2019 Comments Off

After five long months of unrest in Hong Kong, what do the protesters really want? Many have said they are protesting for democracy. To “Free Hong Kong.” To “Liberate Hong Kong.” But what does that really mean?

To better understand what Hong Kongers want, one just has to look at the flags they are carrying to their protests.

When Will Oberlin College Own Up To Its Mistakes?

sunbeam July 2, 2019 Comments Off

Oberlin College continues to play the victim card. After the massive $11 million compensatory and $33 million punitive damage verdicts (later reduced to $25 million under Ohio tort reform caps) against it for defaming Gibson’s Bakery and its owners, Oberlin College should have looked at its own conduct in nearly destroying a 135-year-old family business. One would think a unanimous verdict and a large punitive damage award would cause some reflection on the college’s part in the hopes of rectifying clearly immoral and illegal conduct.

One would be wrong, of course. From the moment the initial verdict was handed down by the jury, Oberlin College has attempted to portray itself as the victim. The college says that it was held liable for the speech of its students.

William Jacobson, who writes for Legal Insurrection, represented the only national media outlet to be present throughout the trial. The day the verdict was handed down he predicted that the college would not take responsibility and he was right.

Xi Jinping To Visit North Korea

As noted yesterday, Asia, specifically China, is providing some interesting bits of news this week. On Sunday some 2 million Hong Kongers protested in the streets over China’s attempt to subvert their rights within their legal justice system. Carrie Lam, Hong Kong’s chief executive officer, may have been the target of their immediate anger. However, clearly China is their concern.

The heavy-handed response by Lam, rubber bullets and tear gas, against protesters who were peaceful has brought at least silent condemnation from most of the civilized world. This was no UC-Berkley protest. There were no fires in the streets. There were no broken windows. There was no looting. Emergency vehicles that needed to get through were allowed to pass. There were more than 70 injuries from the police response.

Hong Kong On Fire

sunbeam June 17, 2019 Comments Off

An interesting dynamic is playing out in Hong Kong. Protests broke out a week ago over a proposed law that Carrie Lam, Hong Kong’s first female chief executive, supports. The law would allow extradition of Hong Kongers to mainland China.

Please note the use of the term Hong Kongers. Although mostly descended from ethnic Chinese, the vast majority of the residents of Hong Kong do not consider themselves to be Chinese. Hong Kong has had long experience (150 years) with Western rule-of-law concepts. Additionally over 3 million people fled communist China in 1949 to the safety and freedom of Hong Kong. Hong Kongers are not conditioned culturally, as many of those on the mainland are, to the acceptance of totalitarian forms of governance.
