Kurt Schlichter, Now the leftist scolds are trying to crash our Halloween party with a long list of instructions and commands we’re expected to follow in order to PC-up our Samhain. Most of this nonsense is couched in terms of forbidding “cultural appropriation,” which essentially means demanding everyone remain in the narrow box of intersectional
Keely Sharp, The same Congressman who introduced four articles of impeachment earlier this month is now, once again, calling for the president’s impeachment. Democrats are getting a little giddy in their attempt to impeach President Trump (over absolutely nothing) because they do not like him. Sorry to be the one to tell you, but Trump
Kurt Schlichter, All human institutions are essentially a reboot of high school, and within the political scene the Never Trumpers are convinced that they are the cool kids despite being the chess club of American politics. No, they aren’t the cool kids. They’re geeks, they haven’t won a tournament in years and, more importantly, they’re

Michael Reagan, Houston is trying to dry itself out and recover from the historic floods of Hurricane Harvey. It will take years and unknown billions of dollars.

David Horowitz and Matthew Vadum, After helping to elect Donald Trump and pilot his White House through the turbulence of its first seven months, Stephen K. Bannon has left the administration and returned to Breitbart News, the conservative online news giant he captained before joining Trump a year ago. What distinguishes Steve Bannon from other
Sheena Sharma, Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer. It took me years to understand the depth of this trite-as-ever quote. Most of the time, we’re incapable of comprehending certain philosophies until we’ve endured them firsthand.

Kurt Schlichter, I took a week off from the milieu of political insanity to go out amongst the normals and chalk up another huge trial victory, and when I got back I was stunned - stunned! - to find that a consensus had formed that Nazis are bad. Beforehand, I had no idea where the
Kurt Schlichter, A woman gave birth the other day, and the liberal media squeed in delight, which is weird – usually the media only cares about babies in the context of waxing them in the womb. Plus, don’t the sacraments of the Weird Weather Religion deem babies bad for Mother Earth, just like pets? Yeah,
Kurt Schlichter, The New York contingent of plotters gathered in the Times building so they could use the company’s considerable communications resources to monitor the coup. In Washington, the plotters were spread out – the State Department, the FBI headquarters (the new Director was under arrest and his Obama holdout deputies were overseeing the arrest
