The deadly Wuhan Coronavirus, dubbed “2019-nCoV” by the World Health Organization (WHO), is spreading farther and faster than the SARS virus (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome) did at a similar point in its outbreak, although this corona virus’ lethality rate is still lower than for SARS at around 4% so far. The…
There were literally thousands of qualified Trump supporters eager to join his administration, yet, those responsible for personnel decisions decided to retain Obama employees or hire NeverTrumpers, who, collectively, either resisted or actively undermined Trump and his America First agenda. The consequences of that neglect are now playing out in…
For some time now — most notably demonstrated by writing a book on the subject, Hold Texas, Hold the Nation: Victory or Death — I have been sounding the rallying cry that the Democrats have their sights on the Lone Star State. I have written numerous op-eds on the subject and…
The federal government knows a lot of troubling things about two prominent American Islamist organizations. Curiously, the same federal government continues to seek out partnerships with those same radical organizations and even awards them taxpayer-funded grant money. Last summer, the Commerce Department severed a partnership with the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR)…
According to the recently published “Afghanistan Papers,” for over eighteen years, U.S. civilian and military leaders have been simultaneously clueless and deceptive. “We were devoid of a fundamental understanding of Afghanistan — we didn’t know what we were doing,” said Douglas Lute, a three-star Army general who served as the White House’s…
Welcome to the week where, for the third time in US history, we shall have a presidential impeachment. If you are not a student of American history, the previous times were that of Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton. The most recent, Bill Clinton, had to do with lying under oath,…

“A system of licensing and registration is the perfect device to deny gun ownership to the bourgeoisie.” (USSR Communist leader Vladimir Ilyich Lenin) “On the morrow of each conflict I gave the categorical order to confiscate the largest possible number of weapons of every sort and kind.” (Italian Fascist Dictator…
Yes, I know many of us have been focused on the one “I” word, Iran. But, if there is anything we have come to learn about the progressive socialist left, they do the “Kansas City Shuffle” very well. That song is from the soundtrack of the movie “Lucky Number Slevin,”…
Their countries wanted them dead because of their ideas. You’ve probably heard of one – Jamal Khashoggi. His 2018 murder inside a Saudi Arabian consulate in Turkey sparked international outrage and front page headlines. Khashoggi was a Washington Post columnist, and his brutal killing at the hands of Saudi government agents naturally sparked anger and a vociferous defense…
The answer is exemplified by the 1980 to 1988 Iran-Iraq War, where we allow, even encourage, the fanatics to kill each other, given their seemingly insatiable appetite for internecine warfare, preferably, without an American presence. It is a foreign policy based, not on altruism or quaint notions of “breaking the cycle…
Well, I guess y’all can surmise from the topic of this missive the identity of this week’s recipient of our Old School Patriot “Stuck on Stupid Saturday” recognition. Yes, our first of the new year, 2020, “Stuck on Stupid Saturday (SOSS)” award goes to the Ayatollah Khamenei, supreme leader of…
