Climbing out on a limb George Clooney told Biden not to run – Trump slammed Clooney as a ‘disloyal, backstabber, third-rate movie actor’ – added, ‘He’s turned on Crooked Joe like the rats they both are.’ On one side of the table this election we’ve had an old man who, memory slipping at the NATO…

The first time Ronald Reagan ran for president a lot of Democrats voted for him. Those ‘ticket-splitters’ respected their political party but a candidate’s honesty, character, beliefs mattered more to them than his party. Governor Jim Hunt ran for reelection the same year Reagan won and a lot of those same ticket-splitters voted for Hunt…
Read MoreAR-15s and Project 2025
For years, MAGA Republicans have fetishized AR-15s, the weapon Trump’s assailant used. They wear AR-15 lapel pins and pose brandishing the high-powered assault rifles. Now, in an Olympic-worthy feat of mental gymnastics, Trump’s acolytes claim that the AR-15 attack makes Trump and Project 2025 off-limits to campaign criticism. Get real. After Paul Pelosi was brutally…
Read MoreMedia Mania
The political media’s feeding frenzy over President Biden is an extraordinary development in this campaign. Their arrogance will be studied and scrutinized in political, journalistic and academic circles for years.

Since 1968, political parties that changed horses in midstream have ended up drowning. That year, antiwar Democrats forced President Lyndon B. Johnson out of the race. Robert Kennedy ran and was killed. Vice President Hubert Humphrey and Gene McCarthy fought all the way to the convention in Chicago. There, police battered and bloodied protesters in…
Read MoreI’ve Heard Enough
I’ve heard enough from a media lynch mob that obsesses over President Biden’s senior moments and overlooks Trump’s lifetime of lies and crimes. I’ve heard enough from Democrats who would give in to the mob, give up on the President and give Trump and MAGA Republicans a huge psychological victory four months before the election.…

Born in Moscow, Boris Epshteyn came to America when he was 11 years old, settled in New Jersey, became a lawyer, worked on John McCain’s presidential campaign against Obama, worked with Trump – Steve Bannon calls him Trump’s ‘Wartime Consigliere’. After Biden won, Trump charged into a grey area trying to do something no one…

Biden opened the border, plummeted in polls, trailed Trump – about facing got tougher on the border. Next he got hit by backlash coming from angry progressives – holding out an olive branch, straddling the fence, he handed half a million illegal immigrants, who’d married Americans, a way to stay and a pathway to citizenship.…
