Senate Majority leader Chuck Schumer has vilified fellow Democrats Manchin and Sinema for failing to support their party’s efforts to alter the protocols of filibuster. As the Democrats do not have the 60 votes necessary to bypass those protocols, Republican Senators have been able to thwart key pieces of legislation such as Biden’s Build Back …

The “Big Lie”
Over and over and over again I have read and watched smirking, condescending references from Leftist commentators to the “big lie” believed by the gullible followers of Donald Trump that the 2020 election was stolen from him. Life is complicated. Trump is hardly my ideal politician though if I were an American citizen forced to …
Here in Canada, it’s their way or the doorway!
In an article of Jan. 15 in the National Post, Barbara Kay dealt with the status of discourse, or perhaps I should say lack of discourse, allowed in Canada today on the issue of its Residential Schools and our alleged “genocide” of Indigenous Culture if not the people themselves. She in no way implies our …

Double-Think once Again!
In referring to the mid-term elections of 2022, elections in which the polls show Democrats are likely to get slaughtered, Biden stated in his press conference a couple of days ago that he could not vouch for their legitimacy. To quote him verbatim, he said: “The increase in the prospect of being illegitimate is in …
A Brief Postscript…..
In my last blog I discussed the impact of the “progressive” approach to matters of Law and Order. Unfortunately it is almost impossible to keep up with the daily flow of evidence suggesting the utter failure of that approach. This past Thursday, California Gov. Gavin Newsom was filmed helping others clean up the thousands of …
Imagine she was your Daughter!
On Thurs., Jan. 13, a young Black male walked into an upscale L.A. furniture store where Brianna Kupfer was working alone and stabbed her to death. It was that simple. In a subsequent interview her father, Todd, while sobbing intermittently, blamed his beautiful 24 year old daughter’s death on “progressive” initiatives across the States, and …
Where do we go from here?
As a measure against “systemic racism,” Sunrise Park Middle School in White Bear Lake, Minnesota, announced in the fall of last year that it will basically do everything in its power not to fail students, allowing them to rewrite sub- standard exams and assignments and indeed exonerating them when those assignments are handed in late …
How do they Sleep at Night?
On Oct. 4 Democratic Senator Kyrsten Sinema was followed into a bathroom at Arizona State U. by a bunch of Leftist radicals who proceeded to harangue her as she used the facility, all the while filming the proceedings. She is loathed by most in her party for her refusal, along with fellow Democrat Joe Manchin, …
We Reap what we Sow
The following illustrates the moral climate produced by those mindlessly celebrating “inclusiveness” at the expense of all other human qualities. On Jan. 9 in East Harlem, a young Black male, Winston Glynn, needlessly killed 19 year old Kristal Bayron-Nieves, the unarmed cashier at a Burger King he was attempting to rob. Willing to answer his …
Sanctimonious Fascism
Nineteenth Century abolitionist Frederick Douglas railed against the tyranny of his era’s version of political correctness, stating: “Liberty is meaningless when the right to utter one’s thoughts and opinions has ceased to exist. That, of all rights, is the dread of tyrants. It is the right which they first of all strike down.” Yet it …
