American Apartheid: Resurrecting Communism’s South African Playbook – in America…
There are times when you write something that you think is important, and you want to get it right. This is one of those times. I hope you find this post worthwhile. A few weeks ago, a very good friend sent me an article. The article intrigued me, and I began to research the background […]
The Beto Diaries…
I awoke woke and went for a run. It was 5:30 a.m., and I stepped gingerly down the steps of my Capitol Hill townhouse in the early morning darkness. Once I hit the pavement, I tightened my laces a final time. Then I adjusted my new Bluetooth headphones and hit play on an obscure, experimental […]

To Take Back the Map, Democrats Need a Plan to Revive Heartland Cities…
It had the trappings of a reality television show: 238 competitors from across the country, twenty finalists, but only one victor. (Or, as it turned out, two.)

What ‘Lanes’ Will the 2020 Democratic Candidates Run In?…
Recent Democratic presidential nominating contests have been relatively simple. The 2000 (Gore versus Bradley) and 2016 (Clinton versus Sanders) primary battles were almost entirely two-candidate affairs. 2008 quickly devolved to a two-candidate fight between Obama and Clinton by the end of January. The 2004 competition was all but over after John Kerry won both Iowa […]
The Godfather…
Left-wing activists smash windows with bats to protest conservative speakers. They burn property and threaten opponents in public, violently lashing out at individuals for holding conservative views.
