Dictator Biden’s Anti-Dictator Constitutional Amendment

Dictator Biden’s Anti-Dictator Constitutional Amendment

by | Aug 5, 2024 | , ,

Twenty years ago, I jokingly proposed a constitutional amendment to require the U.S. government to obey the Constitution. President Biden has one-upped me with his proposal for a “No One is Above the Law” constitutional amendment. But Biden would have been more honest if he labeled his pitch the “No One is Above the Law Except Me” amendment. The “No One is Above the Law” constitutional fix is as big a sham as the KamalaFlauge expunging of Vice President Harris’ political history. In the same week that Biden trumpeted his proposed amendment, he announced new schemes to avoid complying with...

Biden’s Blather and American Democracy Gone Awry

Biden’s Blather and American Democracy Gone Awry

by | Jul 23, 2024 | ,

Since late 2020, President Joe Biden has invoked “the will of the people” dozens of times to sanctify his power, including arbitrary decrees that were illegal or unconstitutional. Biden’s invocations did not prevent his re-election campaign from being terminated behind closed doors on Sunday by Democratic Party donors and leaders. Though Biden is being shoved off stage, the “will of the people” will continue to be invoked to raze limits on presidential power and trample the Bill of Rights. Biden’s rhetorical machinations reflect a wrong path taken long ago by American politicians regarding...

Tariffs Are Bipartisan Enemies of Freedom

Tariffs Are Bipartisan Enemies of Freedom

by | Jul 17, 2024 | ,

President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump both portray tariffs as magic wands to create national prosperity. Trump is calling for a 10% across-the-board tariff on imports, while Biden is imposing selective tariffs that he portrays as miracle cures for any economic malaise. But tariffs have always been and always will be an enemy to prosperity and individual freedom. The U.S. tariff code is the accumulated junk heap of centuries of political payoffs and kickbacks. In 1790, the Tariff Code consisted of a single sheet of rates posted at U.S. Custom Houses; now, our tariff code...

COVID Tyranny and Merle Haggard’s Forgotten Warning

COVID Tyranny and Merle Haggard’s Forgotten Warning

by | Jul 1, 2024 |

Since the start of the COVID pandemic, many Americans have been appalled at the tidal wave of dictatorial and futile decrees that sought to vanquish a virus. Even more shocking was the craven response by many citizens who believed that groveling to officialdom was the only way to survive. But there were warning signs of the collapse of American support for freedom long before the Wuhan Institute pocketed U.S. tax dollars to concoct its first coronavirus. “Is the best of the free life behind us now?” Merle Haggard asked in a haunting 1982 country music hit song. Nine years earlier, Haggard...

Will Trump Learn from Bump Stock Battering?

Will Trump Learn from Bump Stock Battering?

by | Jun 18, 2024 | , ,

The Supreme Court last Friday struck down one of the most controversial gun control edicts in recent years. The ruling on bump stocks is being widely hailed as a victory for an expansive reading of the Second Amendment. But it is also a stark rebuke to Donald Trump’s dictatorial tendencies and his Presidential Magic Felony Wand. On October 1, 2017, Stephen Paddock fired hundreds of rounds from his window in the Mandalay Bay hotel in Las Vegas into a crowd attending a country music concert below. Sixty people were killed, and more than four-hundred wounded. Paddock was using a bump stock, an...

Politicians Will Always Be Damn Rascals

Politicians Will Always Be Damn Rascals

by | Jun 10, 2024 | ,

Former President Donald Trump was recently convicted by a New York jury after prosecutors claimed he was guilty of “hoodwinking” voters in the 2016 election by paying to cover up his boinking of a beefy porn star. Manhattan prosecutor Alvin Bragg proclaimed that Trump was guilty of taking steps with “the end of keeping information away from the electorate.” Cue the casino scene from the movie Casablanca, with the French officer lamenting that he was “shocked, shocked” to find gambling on the premises. Lying is practically the job description for politicians. Economist John Burnheim, in his...

Forced Busing: Biggest DEI Debacle in U.S. History

Forced Busing: Biggest DEI Debacle in U.S. History

by | May 30, 2024 |

President Joe Biden seeks to boost government school spending to close the achievement gap between white and black students. According to the Biden administration, disparities in student test scores justify further government intervention. But Biden ignores how previous government education decrees ravaged Americans’ freedom and domestic tranquility. In a speech earlier this month, Biden touted the 70th anniversary of the Supreme Court decision on Brown v. Board of Education. That decision ruled that “separate but equal” systems that intentionally segregated students by race violated the...

Biden’s Sham Snickers Salvation Shtick

Biden’s Sham Snickers Salvation Shtick

by | May 20, 2024 | , ,

In 1896, Democratic Party presidential candidate William Jennings Bryan made a famous pro-inflation speech, proclaiming "you shall not crucify mankind upon a cross of gold" (and stable prices). In 2024, President Joe Biden is campaigning for re-election by denouncing corporations for crucifying consumers on a grocery store rack of Snickers bars. According to Biden, “shrinkflation”—adjusting for inflation by selling smaller products for the same price—is a worse crime than anything his administration inflicted on the American people.  And Snickers bars are Exhibit #1 of corporate perfidy in...
