MACDONALD: The Public Ed Industrial Complex Wants Failure

2 hours 6 min ago

Is public education broken? That depends on whether you think the goal was to redirect private resources to create knowledgeable citizens capable of self-education and self-rule. That was never its purpose, though we must confess that at least a few of the kiddies walked out the other end at least able to read and think ... Read more

MACDONALD: Trump Eyes Mexican Cartels For “Kinetic” Affection

Wed, 2025-11-05 22:00 +0000

A few weeks back, I hinted that Mexico might want to negotiate a pause with the drug cartels if it didn’t want to get Venezuela’d. US strikes on alleged cartel drug boats are a not-so-subtle message. That rhetorical war on drugs thing the US Government had been laundering money through for decades, only to have ... Read more

OPINION: The Defund The Police Movement’s Origin

Wed, 2025-11-05 19:00 +0000

Most people think the left’s obsession with “racial justice” in policing started with George Floyd. It didn’t. That was just the match thrown on an already blazing bonfire that really started to take shape many years ago. The groundwork for dismantling America’s criminal justice system was laid over a decade earlier, back in 2010, with ... Read more

LEMISKA: Who’s Really Responsible for the Shutdown? Just Listen to the Democrats

Wed, 2025-11-05 15:00 +0000

Yes, of course you already know who’s responsible for the government shutdown. As a lifelong Democrat, there’s no doubt in your mind that Trump and the Republicans caused the shutdown and all the hardships that come with it. If, on the other hand, your politics lean conservative, you’re certain the Schumer shutdown is just another ... Read more

MACDONALD: VA Takes Three Steps Back

Wed, 2025-11-05 10:00 +0000

We all assumed that Veterans Affairs under Trump would improve, and in some respects, it has. They are handling more claims, and in September, they made some noise about approving third-party care for 12 months (for thirty types of care) instead of 6 or 3, but something changed. My contacts tell me that the VA ... Read more

Imani: When Will the People See True Accountability?

Wed, 2025-11-05 03:00 +0000

Without a doubt, everyday Americans are increasingly challenging the uneven hand of political accountability.  They observe a system that appears to pursue accountability with an ironclad imbalance of justice, leaving one side largely untouched while the other bears the brunt of investigations and prosecutions.  This sentiment has intensified in recent months as calls grow louder for action ...

MACDONALD: The Fraud We Elected Trump to Fix

Tue, 2025-11-04 22:00 +0000

As you contemplate the complication of the Schumer shutdown, don’t forget that there were millions of illegals tapping the EBT system for food and fun—at least 1.5 million. According to the USDA, the noncitizens include “lawful permanent residents, refugees, asylees, those granted a stay of deportation, and undocumented individuals… Undocumented individuals are not eligible to receive SNAP ...

CARING CORRUPTED: THE KILLING NURSES OF THE THIRTIES from Nazi Germany enlightened my narrative of the COVID death march. This video, responding to my headlined OP-ED COVID CARNAGE, dated October 26, 2025,  stirred deep thought about human nature’s desire to seek the most gain at the cost of the least amount of pain.

MACDONALD: And They Call Us Fascists

Tue, 2025-11-04 17:00 +0000

I’m not sure how many readers remember Heavy Metal (the cartoon art mag, not the music). They released an eponymously named movie in 1981, which I recall liking. In one scene, someone in charge of something tells the hero, Den, that he “must steal the Loc-Nar from the Queen in order to save Katherine.” I ... Read more

Patriots, the storm has broken.  For nine years, the Deep State cabal led by Barack Obama have slithered in the shadows, peddling their Russia hoax like a venomous serpent to poison the well of American democracy.  But now director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has hurled the thunderbolt of truth, declassifying ironclad documents that lay bare the ...

Today, on the morning update, we’ve got more SNAP fraud news you can share out there in the trenches of social media, including how Dems could have easily funded SNAP separately from the CR, but like paying our military, they just don’t want to.

[re: Patrick Hynes (Sununu can deliver GOP seat in the Senate, Union Leader, October 25)] John E. Sununu is the epitome of the Washington elite. I don’t care how many long-term Senators in D.C. have endorsed Sununu, some of whom are members of a particular bureaucratic institution known as “the swamp”. They stick like glue ... Read more

Everyone except the Democrats is frustrated by the Senate impasse that is keeping our government shut down. This situation is not one where negotiation will lead to a resolution.

MACDONALD: Escape From New York!

Mon, 2025-11-03 22:00 +0000

New York’s likely election of Zohran Mamdani to the mayor’s office offers a lesson —and not just to New Yorkers. The rise of Marxist, totalitarian socialists into positions of power has a similar effect across the world and throughout time. It is the template of modern civilization. Those who can leave do, taking their intellectual ... Read more
