Polls Are Becoming the New Word Salads

“There’s a new poll out today.” Those words used to capture the attention of those who like to chew over politics. But things appear to be spiraling out of control this election season. If you’ve stopped picking up calls on your mobile phone, you may be the only person not to be polled this election year. That, of course, is a wild exaggeration, but somehow the plethora of polls makes it feel this way. Read More …

Biden’s Executive Order – Backdoor to Gun Control or Campaign Event?

President Joe Biden signed an executive order on Thursday, September 26, to put a stop to gun violence and heal the trauma it has caused in America – a task much easier said than done. The president and his intended successor, Vice President Kamala Harris, said at the signing that it’s time for universal background checks, red flag laws, and another ban on so-called assault weapons.

Such is the state of modern American political partisanship that people who are, or were, in positions of power and influence say things that are both hilariously out of touch with reality and startlingly dangerous. Take America’s national security community, for example, which is a major component of the Deep State – or, if one prefers a less conspiratorial term, the administrative state. Fifty-one Intelligence Community (IC) officials and former officials already beclowned themselves attempting to deny the veracity of Hunter Biden’s infamous laptop. Now the bureaucrats are at it again, with 741 former high-ranking national security officials signing off on a statement endorsing Kamala Harris for president. Read More …

Trump’s Campaign Gambit: Rewriting the Rule Book

The 2024 presidential election campaign is shaping up to be anything but normal. Put aside for a moment that the GOP contender is technically a non-incumbent incumbent and that the Democrat hopeful has not won a single primary vote. What yet remains is the most bizarre electoral contest in modern history in which all things that were once held true are now – at best – highly debatable. Read More …
