Jul 29, 2024 – Oh, I gotcha now, don't I?I'm not pulling your leg, either.It's the start of a new week in America after a rock 'em, sock 'em a couple of political shock-to-the-system weeks, iced by the French just pooping all over DaVinci, the New Testament, and every Christian on Earth.Crazytown.The last thing...

Jul 29, 2024 – This is so classically Panhandle sleazy - I can't stand it.Now, I will admit to knowing all the players personally, having helped out the GOP locally since McCain's campaign, then ran the county team (which was...me) for Rubio's original guerilla senate campaign and, by the time of Trump's election, social-climbed...

Jul 29, 2024 – There's a lot to unpack here. Most of the origins of what's unfolding now are self-induced misery, including some related breaking news happening in the United Kingdom, even as I am trying to get this post put together.The two main problems that are blatantly obvious and completely ignored through all...

Jul 26, 2024 – I think we all had a pretty fair inkling that things in Paris during the Olympics were going to be spicy. Considering how the French street demonstrations go anytime their Left, anarchists, unions, or [Beege adds:] their hefty Islamic immigrant population melts down in a tantrum, we would be perfectly...

Jul 26, 2024 – Things are grim in the automotive industry right now.First off, there's a reason I didn't put this story under my usual #Bidenomics Update, even though it has many components that are attributable to the brilliant Biden economic machinations that have brought us so many of our current difficulties. Not to...

Jul 26, 2024 – The effort to rehabilitate Kamala Harris is not the only memory holing being done on the Democratic side. And by "Democratic side," I'm not referring to their compliant press or media toadies or fawning mouthpieces in Hollywood on TikTok.No, nope, nyet.The official Democratic Party is utterly beclowning itself, pretending what...

Jul 30, 2024 – UNEXPECTEDLYThere's that "U" word, and no one is more surprised than Olaf Scholz and his Green cultists.The Germans had such hopes for eking out a teensy gain this quarter. Output in Europe's biggest economy contracted by 0.1 percent compared with the previous three months, federal statistics office Destatis said, after expanding...

Aug 9, 2024 – As you can imagine, given my widely varied interests, I get a pretty weird assortment of daily newsletters every morning when I open my Gmail. Some of them come several times a day, and I can't keep up with the inflow, so I'd normally delete them after a quick glance...

Aug 9, 2024 – It's kind of wild to feel more worried about your kid's well-being when he's stationed in England than when he was in Bagram or Djibouti.At least in either of those two places, he could still say anything he wanted, defend himself immediately, and shoot back if he had to.But being...

Aug 9, 2024 – I am a little behind the curve and late to the party on the brouhaha happening over Harley-Davidson. It seems their chairman, president and CEO since 2020, a fellow named Jochen Zeitz, is a fervent DEI enthusiast. Many of his initiatives at the company have only recently come to light...

Jul 30, 2024 – Let's just set the bottom line here before we go any further. As of February's state budget planning for 2024-25, the formerly golden paradise on the West Coast of the United States known as California is in a financial chasm (aka deficit) of something approaching seventy-three billion - with a...

Jul 31, 2024 – You thought it had slipped my mind in all the chaos and to-do, right?Hah! Fat chance.Two weeks ago, Green fever dreams began washing ashore in chunks and shards on the pristine beaches of Nantucket Island after the catastrophic failure of a brand new offshore wind turbine blade. And it was only...

Aug 1, 2024 – WHUTTruly, this is how you have to react when first you read this headline.California lawmakers debate sending local health inspectors inside immigration facilitiesHow is there a debate about something like this? I'm really curious. The California Department of Health inspects private nursing homes. Local health departments inspect restaurants. The state Department...

Aug 1, 2024 – Welp. It was a downer of a day on Wall Street, and the luster has started to wear thin on Jerome Powell's silver dome. Analysts and traders are seriously concerned that the Fed's waited too long to loosen its grip, and we're gonna be coming in with a thump vice...

Aug 8, 2024 – Ah, Chicago. As if it didn't have its own, self-inflicted miseries to deal with, right?But I'm figuring we ain't seen nothing yet, because, in eleven or so days, the Democrats and all their rowdy friends are coming to town.HO, boy.A town that has this guy for a mayor. The guy...

Aug 7, 2024 – The "aw shucks" Governor Tim Walz, a regular next-door guy who fixes cars on YouTube, got tapped by VP Cackles yesterday, as you all are by now totally aware.The fact that moon-faced, pleasant Minnesotan demeanor and jovial, bonhomie public delivery masks a stone-cold socialist doesn't hurt the guy one bit....

Aug 8, 2024 – I mean, sincerely - God bless this guy. It's nice to have bazillions of dollars and enjoy them for the rest of your life. But to take that kind of money, fearlessly make more doing amazing things and then risk it all - every business, your own freedom in some instances...

Aug 14, 2024 – Part of the Herculean job of remaking Kamala Harris into a figurehead resembling a marginally rational human being is pretending that she was never part of the administration that proudly gave us #Bidenomics. And when I say proudly, I mean just that - they thought it was the greatest thing...

Aug 14, 2024 – This has everyone wondering. Everyone saw our commander-in-chief snoozing on the beach in Delaware over the weekend. It's not like anything was going on...well, any more than the usual "Does WWIII start this weekend or next?" duck-under-the-desk chaos the Biden-Harris regime has put us through since almost the very first day...

Aug 14, 2024 – So, there I was, messaging with Ebola a few minutes ago. I'd found this completely whack (to me anyway) story about parking problems and scofflaws at a "major" British airport. rather than pay to park, Ebola tells me it's a time-honored tradition (also in Germany, he says) to stuff your...

Aug 1, 2024 – This is obviously a story near and dear to my mean Marine Corps green heart, and I sure remember being torqued about the event when it happened this past May.The two people whom the Marine Corps prevented from breaking onto an installation in Virginia on May 3 were Jordanian nationals,...

Jul 31, 2024 – Gosh. I have not forsaken my vow not to watch any of it, but as I have been keeping up with the follies and lollies on X and in news briefs, I have to say the French have certainly covered themselves in, well, not glory.I, being of little personal physical...

Jul 31, 2024 – So former President Trump did what only he does best today and walked into the proverbial "lion's den" at the National Association of Black Journalists conference. It was by invitation - they also issued one to his opponent, whoever it was at the time and now isn't - but Trump...

Aug 7, 2024 – I have long given up on any attempt to rationalize, less mind understand, the liberal-minded and progressives in the female half (or so) of the population of humans occupying our formerly "civilized" world.They always faintly annoyed me. I think it was more the smug air of self-important do-goodyness that surrounded...

Aug 7, 2024 – GAWDThird-world police states are great, aren't they?And I'm not the least bit concerned that my kid has just moved to a welcoming place like the United Kingdom at all, am I?Not at all, not at all.I've heard summers in England are delightful.Warm, village bon-fiery sort of welcoming.Liverpool is burning 🔥pic.twitter.com/UB1gWvXXJq—...
