It was quite surprising on Monday to learn that North Korea (the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, DPRK) was put back on the United States’ list of State Sponsored Terrorism by President Trump. But it was surprising for only ONE reason, namely: What the HELL was the DPRK doing OFF that list in the first place??!! North Korea was put
Brief commentary on selected news items: >Recently I posted a short piece to the effect that America was FINALLY catching on to the extreme bias in America’s major media against Donald Trump (Snippets 11/15/17). I was pleased, therefore, to see the results of a new Quinnipiac Poll: FIFTY EIGHT PERCENT of Americans DISAPPROVE of the way America’s media covers President
First off, I should make it clear that I DON’T know whether or not Judge Roy Moore engaged in the sleazy behavior he’s been accused of.

It’s hard to believe that it’s only been a month, but it’s true: the current groundswell of sexual abuse accusations began in early October with a certain Mr. Harvey Weinstein (see my previous post “Have No Shame”, 10/8/17). Since then it seems that half of Hollywood, the music industry, the government and even the sports world have been implicated in
>Although CNN and the NYT are crowing about Democrats taking the Governorships of New Jersey and Virginia, the results of neither race should have been a big surprise to them. Hillary carried both states in November. The surprise would have been if the Democrats lost. Sorry guys, nothing here to write home about. And, keep in mind, that Republicans did
Last week the news coverage of the weaponized automobile massacre (WAM) in New York City by Islamic terrorist Sayfullo Habibullaevic Saipov is yet another example of what major media newscasters in the United States have become: mindless automatons. Despite the fact that Saipov’s attack followed the precise pattern of similar Islamist attacks that have become extremely common in Europe over
It would appear that public life in America moves ahead incredibly fast these days. Since posting my Trump Agenda Update yesterday, new developments now require an update of the update. Of most importance, the Supreme Court dismissed the suit from Hawaii that attempted to block President Trump’s travel ban. It was suspected that the Court might just have elected to
Recently a friend of mine emailed me to ask for an update on America’s political scene as he had been traveling in Europe for a couple of weeks (thanks MEO). I replied with the following brief synopsis. All of the material mentioned below is available online, but I print it here because many of the developments are either not mentioned
