By R. Cort Kirkwood In a long X post that went viral again this week, hedge-fund tycoon Bill Ackman wrote that President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, and the Democratic Party are trying to destroy America. The longtime Democrat contributor listed 33 “actions and policies” that shattered his confidence in the party. Indeed, he wrote, those policies and actions are so...
By R. Cort Kirkwood Tren de Aragua, the Venezuelan Biden “migrant” gang that has established a beachhead in the United States, took over four apartment complexes in San Antonio, Texas. Able to do so only because President Joe Biden imported it, the gang is operating not only Texas, but also Colorado, Illinois, and New York. The latest exposé by the Daily Mail paints a frightening...
By Wayne Allensworth The vibe of this presidential election is different. Something’s in the air, the almost tangible sensation of a seismic political shift. This election does not fit the pattern that the usual suspects expect or anticipate. The political realignment that began with 2016 is playing out with the neocons returning to the leftist fold from whence they came, with many of the most...
By Wayne Allensworth America is quickly shifting from being a high trust society with lots of “social capital” to a condition much more common around the world, one in which ordinary people don’t trust institutions, don’t trust the government, and increasingly don’t trust one another. Professor Robert Putnam, author of Bowling Alone, reluctantly concluded that some time ago. In an atomized, hyper...
By R. Cort Kirkwood Read the full article at the New American: Excerpt: Nearly 650,000 illegal-alien criminals are roaming American streets, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has confessed. In a letter to GOP U.S. Representative Tony Gonzales of Texas, ICE reported that almost 450,000 are convicted criminals, while another nearly 227,000 are criminal suspects. More than 13,000 are...
By Wayne Allensworth Bill and Shirley Allensworth Houston, Texas 1953 I recall the time and circumstances in which I knew once and for all I couldn’t go home again. It was 1992. We were back in Houston for Christmas. My wife and I took walks in the morning and passed still remaining landmarks that had taken on the air of museum exhibits. Or ruins. The post office. The old grocery store, now a...
By Wayne Allensworth If I had only one reason to vote for Trump-Vance in November, this would be enough: Kamala Harris voted against requiring doctors to render aid to babies born alive after a “botched” abortion. That alone tells us all we need to know about her and what her party has become. The “abortion van” outside the DNC only confirmed the ghoulishness of the ghastly, and, yes...
By Wayne Allensworth I recently finished reading J.D. Vance’s memoir, Hillbilly Elegy. The takeaways from that reading include: Vance’s rejection of fatalistic hopelessness. Hopelessness is pervasive among Vance’s people, and many have fallen into drug addiction, which has spurred on the collapse of the family. Encouraged by grandparents who expended so much of their lives and energy raising...
By Wayne Allensworth Ann Coulter, no fan of former President Donald Trump, says that she will nevertheless vote for him in November. What tipped the balance in his favor after Coulter said she had considered not voting at all? Trump’s choice of J.D. Vance as his running mate. If Trump had been true to past form and chosen Nicky Haley, Coulter would have sat this one out. But Vance is different...
By Wayne Allensworth I’m trying to keep my head above water in the flood of information about recent events spurting out of mass media, including social media, and here are some thoughts that have crossed my mind: Judging by what the investigation into the Trump assassination attempt has come up with so far — that Thomas Matthew Crooks was a loner, was bullied at school, posted a creepy message...
