Hey everyone. I'm finally back from a long sabbatical and ready to untangle all the tricky issues of the day. To get me back into the swing of things I figured I would start with an easy topic. Today President Trump has pardoned Dinesh D'Souza. As everyone knows Dinesh was prosecuted for making 20000 dollars... Continue Reading →
Since the start of his Presidency Democrats and some Neocon republicans have been stating that Trump will start World War 3 with his tweets and behavior. This is false and an outright lie. None of the facts around the world geopolitical situation call for a World War. It would even be difficult to imagine the... Continue Reading →
The other day Ben Shapiro analyzed why the GOP has failed to make headway in any of its core issues. He states that the only thing that national populists or in his words "Trumpists" and conservatives have in common is a mutual disdain for the left.
