Liberal-leaning media outlets love Republican turncoats like Liz Cheney. They will lionize them to the end while ignoring lifelong loyal liberal Democrats.
Who Are You Going to Believe, the Media or Someone Who Actually Knows?
•
The media says the Russian economy is collapsing. I just spent two weeks in Russia and there was absolutely no sign of that. Stores were bustling. Unemployment was low. I came home and told the truth but nobody cares.
Voter Suppression? You’re Soaking in It
•
Democrats rightly criticize Republicans for efforts to suppress the Democratic vote. But both parties suppress third parties like the Greens and Libertarians. If you doubt that, look for the third parties next time you cast a ballot. Any country with just two parties can’t reasonably call itself a democracy.
Who Can Tell the Difference?
•
Democrats complain, correctly, that Republicans are trying to subvert democracy with voter suppression and other tactics. But what democracy are they trying to subvert? Both parties are far more similar than anyone would like to admit, meaning that there isn’t really a true choice at the ballot box in the first place.
We Are All Connected
•
Ecocide is everywhere you look. Even if you’re a big fan of nature, watching beautiful animals on television on television shows that encourage conservation contributes to killing those animals and, eventually, ourselves.
Kamala Harris: Human Repellent
•
Kamala Harris has consistently suffered from very low approval and likability ratings since becoming vice president after her very lackluster primary campaign. Whether her ability to connect with voters was hampered by Biden’s unwillingness to give her something important to do or not, the fact is, people just don’t like her.Kamala Harris has consistently suffered from very low approval and likability ratings since becoming vice president after her very lackluster primary campaign.

You Shall Know Us by Our Priorities
•
You can tell a society’s political priorities by how it spends money. It would cost an estimated $10 billion a year in order to eliminate homelessness in the United States. Instead, the United States recently sent $40 billion to Ukraine.
The Democracy We Deserve
•
A lot can and will change between now and 2024, but currently the frontrunners for the Democratic and Republican nominations are the same exact septuagenarians who ran last time. And one of them is about to become an octogenarian. Whatever else the United States is, it’s not a great example for the rest of the world. Either, or both of these guys, could easily die on the campaign trail.
I’m Going to Need a Little Bit of That Money Back
•
Republicans oppose abortion rights in Congress, but Democrats have the chance to codify abortion into federal law when Obama had a 60-vote supermajority in the US Senate. He chose not to do so, saying that it was a low priority. He also made it a low priority to push through his supreme court pick, Merrick Garland, because he assumed that Hillary Clinton would beat Trump.
