Today’s press conference by President Trump was 21 minutes of straight talk from a president at the top of his game. The question now — as always — is whether his own party will ever wake up from its self-serving slumber and come to his aid. He has to deal with morons like Mitt Romney,
I loved the way Mick Mulvaney handled his press conference today — the first since he took over as White House chief of staff in December 2018. Mulvaney was running interference on the decision to hold the upcoming G7 conference at the Trump Doral resort, knowing full well that the Media Mob and the Coup
No one has a worse reputation in Washington, D.C., than John Bolton, the neo-con national security “expert” who never met a war he didn’t like.

Beware the media machine! That is the message of the past 24 hours. Ignore it at your own peril.

The New York Times put out a story yesterday that said “White House declares war on impeachment inquiry.” At first, I thought “Damn right! It’s about time!” But when I pondered it a little more, I realized that the Times as usual had it wrong. The White House wasn’t declaring war; it was just finally
(Here’s a column I wrote for the Daily Inter Lake on April 10, 2016, about the influx of Syrian refugees under the Obama administration’s policy of giving the middle finger to middle America. It was candidate Donald Trump’s opposition to these kinds of policies that got him elected. Pay special attention to the words of
(Here’s a column I wrote for the Daily Inter Lake on December 3, 2017, about the manufactured scandal that tried to destroy a small Montana company that showed ingenuity and courage in responding to the hurricanes in Puerto Rico.

Most people won’t take the time to read the entire extensive length of Chris Buskirk’s column “Yes, Christians Can Support Trump Without Risk to Their Witness.” That’s a shame because they will miss out on some lovely score-settling with Never Trumper David French and his wife Nancy. Moreover, unless readers were prepared to traverse three
