The Real Problem with Biden’s Age

The Real Problem with Biden’s Age

by | Aug 1, 2024 |

I was only a little surprised by Biden’s debate performance, and on first glance thought it just mediocre, certainly not cause for a crisis. But that’s because I consume too much alternate media, and had seen the endless string of viral clips of Biden falling down the main stairs of Air Force One (and being reassigned to the shorter crew stairs in response.) I’ve seen the memes and loops of his many gaffes, and the awkwardly long pauses where Joe just drifted off when he is no longer next to...

When Presidents Kill

When Presidents Kill

by | Aug 1, 2024 |

Sometime before he withdrew from the presidential race, President Joe Biden secretly reaffirmed his own self-willed and self-created authority to kill persons in other countries, so long as the CIA and its military counterparts have “near certainty” that the target of the homicide is a member of a terrorist organization. That standard was concocted by the George W. Bush administration in 2002. There is no “near certainty” standard in the law, as the phrase is oxymoronic and defies a rational...

Israel Sure Looks Like It Wants To Prevent Peace And Start A New War

Israel Sure Looks Like It Wants To Prevent Peace And Start A New War

by | Jul 31, 2024 |

Israel has been on another assassination spree, killing Hamas political leader Ismael Haniyeh on Wednesday with an airstrike while he was in Tehran for the swearing in of the new Iranian president. Israel also claims to have killed Hezbollah commander Fuad Shukr in an airstrike on Beirut on Tuesday evening. Iran and Lebanon will now have to decide how to respond to these incendiary aggressions. Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has promised “harsh...

The Right to Not Be Lied To: Making the Case for Truth in Politics

The Right to Not Be Lied To: Making the Case for Truth in Politics

by | Jul 31, 2024 |

Q: “How can you tell if a politician is lying?”A: “When his lips are moving.” The First Amendment assures us of a right to free speech. It does not, unfortunately, explicitly assure us of a right to not be lied to by our government and its various officials. Any hope of holding government officials accountable for their lies rests with the political process, in the voting booths and through the impeachment process, which themselves have become so ineffective as to offer little real hope of...

Is There a Risk that Kamala Harris Might ‘Go Soft’ on Foreign Policy?

Is There a Risk that Kamala Harris Might ‘Go Soft’ on Foreign Policy?

Extraordinary Times: Biden renounces his election bid via in the slimmest of Sunday afternoon postings; retreats into a silence which finally is broken by a “long farewell” pronounced from the Oval Office. Biden’s staff didn’t hear of his renunciation until a minute before his letter was posted. Then the internet was struck down by CrowdStrike, and the head of the US Secret Service gives an account of the Trump assassination attempt that leaves both sides of the aisle in...

Supreme Court Takes Two Steps Forward, One Step Back.

Supreme Court Takes Two Steps Forward, One Step Back.

by | Jul 29, 2024 |

We can all probably agree that this has been one of the strangest Julys in memory. From the attempt on Trump’s Life to the Republican National Convention to the bizarre “coup” against Biden in the Democratic Party. With all this, it’s easy to forget some truly momentous events that happened this month. For example, the Supreme Court recently handed down three decisions of particular interest to defenders of individual liberty and limited, constitutional government. In two of these cases, the...

New York – According to Britain’s esteemed medical journal, The Lancet, 186,000 Palestinian adults and children have so far been killed or died of disease in Gaza. Nearly 600 Palestinians have been killed on the Israeli-occupied West Bank. 10,000 Palestinians languish in Israeli prisons. The official Arab death toll to date is 39,670, including more than 15,000 children. Close to 80,000 Palestinians have been wounded. Israel says 1,139 Israelis were killed. Half of Gaza’s homes have been...

Biden’s parting deluge of deceit deserves damning

Biden’s parting deluge of deceit deserves damning

by | Jul 26, 2024 |

 In a mere 11 minutes on Wednesday night, President Biden settled any doubts about whether he was fit for another four years of the presidency. Uncle Joe wrestled with the teleprompter like a slacker high school boy blindsided by trigonometry questions on the math SAT test. By the end of the Bidens brief spiel, most judges declared that the teleprompter had won by technical knockout. A few weeks ago, Biden declared that it would take “the Lord Almighty” to get him to end his re-election...

Is the GOP Improving on Foreign Policy?

JD Vance has been critical of U.S. funding of the war in Ukraine, but is that simply because he'd rather fund other countries with the money? Daniel McAdams of the Ron Paul Institute for Peace and Prosperity joins me for an overview of where the Republican Party is going on foreign policy

War Criminal Benjamin Netanyahu Addresses the US Congress

War Criminal Benjamin Netanyahu Addresses the US Congress

by | Jul 26, 2024 |

To my surprise, last Thursday morning there was relatively little coverage of the address to the US Congress delivered by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu last Wednesday afternoon apart from a critical opinion piece that appeared in the New York Times regarding Israel’s war on the Palestinians. The article, by Megan K. Stack, asserted that “History will cast Mr. Netanyahu’s visit in deservedly ugly tones. He’s not a guest we should aspire to host, but he...

Clearly the Republican Party has rallied around its nominee, former President Donald Trump. But that does not mean there is unity within the party when it comes to policy, particularly foreign policy. Trump was rolled once. Will it happen again?CrossTalking with Daniel McAdams, Larry Johnson, and Tom Luongo.

It’s Time to Rethink the U.S.-Israel ‘Special Relationship’

It’s Time to Rethink the U.S.-Israel ‘Special Relationship’

by | Jul 25, 2024 |

As Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu faces a joint session of Congress, Washington must finally face reality: its emphatic embrace of Israel’s war in Gaza is not advancing U.S. interests or promoting regional stability—to say nothing of the immense human toll. In fact, it is doing the opposite. So long as Washington refuses to change course, the U.S. will continue to confront major problems that are the product of its own policies. Netanyahu remains wedded to the...

The Democratic party rigged the primary process for Biden

The Democratic party rigged the primary process for Biden

by | Jul 25, 2024 |

I ran for president twice in 2004 and 2008, in an attempt to truly protect and defend the Constitution by ending perpetual war, stopping government intrusion into Americans’ private lives, and transforming America’s role in the world so that we would have the capacity for a true domestic agenda of national prosperity.    I understand the tactics of the DNC and their media counterparts. I understand how they attempt total control of the nomination process, and...

Call it Censorship: A Court Rules Against Former ‘Disinformation Czar’ Nina Jankowicz

Call it Censorship: A Court Rules Against Former ‘Disinformation Czar’ Nina Jankowicz

by | Jul 25, 2024 |

Below is my column in the New York Post on the ruling against Nina Jankowicz in her defamation case. It turns out that calling opposing views defamation is no better than calling them disinformation. Here is the column: For free speech advocates, there are few images more chilling than that of Nina Jankowicz singing her now-infamous tune as “the Mary Poppins of Disinformation.” The woman who would become known as the “Disinformation Czar” sang a cheerful TikTok parody of...

Freedom’s Extinction

Freedom’s Extinction

by | Jul 25, 2024 |

“Freedom is always just one generation away from extinction.”-- Ronald Reagan (1911-2004) In December 1776, just six months after the Declaration of Independence had been signed and a year and a half into the Revolutionary War, Thomas Paine sensed a desperation throughout the colonies. It prompted him to write a candid and now iconic essay entitled “The American Crisis,” which began with the famous line “These are the times that try men’s souls.” He made a similar argument as Ronald Reagan...

Congressional Incompetence in Its Trump-Shooting Investigation

Congressional Incompetence in Its Trump-Shooting Investigation

by | Jul 24, 2024 |

Members of Congress are besides themselves over the testimony of Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle regarding the near-assassination of former president Trump. They are upset that Cheatle was unable to provide them with adequate explanations as to what appears to be incompetence at best and willful blindness, conscious indifference, or complicity at worst on the part of the Secret Service. But if incompetence is the right explanation, it is matched by the incompetence of Congress in its...
