The most shocking thing about the recent news story that flatulent Russiagate hoaxer and American-nuking enthusiast Rep. Eric Swalwell was caught intertwined with a Chinese honey pot is...well, actually nothing about it is shocking. This is totally on-brand for the Dems and especially this particular clown. It’s not clear how far he got with this Democrat-diddling doxie, but the best case for Swalwell is that he was a fool who couldn’t see how unlikely it was for a DC 8 (and real world 5) to want anything to do with him other than as a mark. The worst case is...

Here are six highlights and lowlights of the negotiations and what they mean now, as the negotiations reach their conclusion. Principle #1: Build strong relationships ahead of time. During negotiations, understand what your counterpart cares about.... First, the UK government should have formed durable alliances in Europe much earlier; this kind of advance relationship building is one key to successful negotiations. The last-minute shuttle diplomacy proved to be too little, too late. Second, the EU failed to put itself in the UK’s shoes (another negotiation principle). Had they been even somewhat flexible over freedom of movement, they might have been...

“People who cannot be reasoned with can only be fought.” It’s an age-old truth, one good people ignore at their own peril. It too often is ignored, though, since good people are mostly reasonable and, in accordance with man’s nature, engage in projection. They thus assume that others are as reasonable as they are. It’s reasonable to assume that mentioning right now the futility of reasoning with the Left is motivated by the election. It’s also, in my case, untrue. I’ve for decades recognized that devout leftists, emotion-driven and vice-ridden, operate by occultist Aleister Crowley’s “principle,” “Do what thou wilt...

Facebook’s Zuckerberg is entitled to sell his stock. And has in the past. But the timing of this latest sale interests me. According to AOL, Facebook‘s chief exec Mark Zuckerberg has sold nearly $280 million worth of company stock in the past month — his first sales of the year. Zuckerberg began offloading shares on November 9, and he’s now generating nearly $12.10 million every day on average by selling his Facebook stock. The sales come at the tail end of a comparatively average year for Facebook stock. The social media giant’s share price has risen 37% in 2020, while...

The only hope for these people, other than to stop being godless, is for the USA to be the role model for our European children. Saving freedom in the USA not only saves freedom in the USA, but...

New York State Assembly Democrats are mulling an array of new and higher taxes on the rich as well as legalization of mobile sports betting and marijuana to address a fiscal crisis fueled by the coronavirus pandemic. The lawmakers discussed raising taxes to close a projected massive budget deficit next year during a grim, private remote meeting held all-day on Wednesday. “If there was an idea to raise money, it was discussed today,” Assembly Education Committee Chairman Michael Benedetto (D-Bronx) told The Post afterward “Everything was discussed at great length.” The tax talk session comes as the New York City...

Global warming is threatening London's historic Highgate Cemetery, an overgrown oasis housing graves of notable figures from Karl Marx to pop star George Michael, its custodians say. Concerned at rampant fungi, freak storms and shifting graves, the cemetery's custodians are now seeking expert help to ensure its survival. The hillside cemetery has graves of famous figures including the novelist George Eliot and "The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy" author Douglas Adams. It is still being used for burials. The British pop singer George Michael, who died in 2016, has an unmarked grave there, according to his family's wishes. Chief gardener...

U.S. Senate hopeful Rev. Raphael Warnock reportedly was arrested 18 years ago for “hindering and obstructing” a police investigation into suspected child abuse at a summer camp in Maryland that Warnock’s church at the time was the operator of. Warnock, a Democrat seeking the seat of Georgia Sen. Kelly Loeffler in a Jan. 5 runoff election against the Republican, was “extremely uncooperative and disruptive” during questioning of camp counselors by police investigators, according to records of the incident obtained by the Washington Free Beacon. Although all names from the report are redacted, it refers to “the reverends,” who were identified...

Now that the media is looking for tips and clues, how about this one? Groot (Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot) and Fatass (Illinois Governor J. B. "Jabba" Pritzker) have shut down restaurants and bars, but opened up the airport bars full-throttle. I traveled in to Midway a couple of days ago, the bars that line the aisle down Concourse B were PACKED with maskless drinkers eating and drinking. I counted 70 people, all indoors, all dining, all drinking (did I mention indoors?) and not a one with a mask on. This is so much Groot's "For thee! Not for me!" approach....

“Wise men lay up knowledge: but the mouth of the foolish is near destruction . . . He is in the way of life that keepeth instruction: but he that refuseth reproof erreth” (Proverbs 10:14, 17).

Former Ohio Gov. John Kasich said Wednesday on CNN’s “Cuomo Prime Time” that Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and the 17 state attorneys general who supported his lawsuit to contest the presidential election results of four battleground states were “morally and ethically bankrupt.”
