The TrigglyPuff Party: How Democrats Created Insane ‘Social Justice’ Mobs

  Commenting on the irrational female rage unleashed by the Kavanaugh confirmation circus, Stephen Green remarks: “The Democrats have worked hard to lock down the Trigglypuff vote, but at what cost of even slightly more moderate voters?” But do such voters really exist?

Notice @AceOfSpadesHQ Has Gone Full Populist? (And More Trump-Era News)

Few things have pleased me more than watching my old buddy Ace of Spades go all-in on Trump, stopping just shy of a Pat Buchanan-type deal where it’s a nod-and-a-wink to the Jew-haters. Which is exactly the right place to stop, I hasten to add. It’s that scene in Falling Down where Michael Douglas encounters […]

“But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.” — Daniel 12:4 (KJV) One of the basic proofs of the Bible’s truth is the accuracy of prophecy. As every Christian knows, Jesus was the […]
