Burning a Police Station Led to Justice
As people of good will celebrate or merely breathe a sigh of relief in response to the conviction of Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin in the videotaped torture and murder of George Floyd, it is worth noting that this victory would never likely not have occurred had it not been for a spectacular act of property destruction.

Biden’s Left Feint
If you don’t dig deep Joe Biden appears to be governing as the most liberal president since LBJ. But conservatives needn’t worry. Biden is no progressive in centrist’s clothing.

Afghanistan Under the Taliban: It Won't Be Like Last Time
We’ve been in Afghanistan 20 years, Joe Biden’s generals told him. All we need is a little more time. The president overruled them, ordering a complete withdrawal of American troops by September 11th.

“Give Joe Biden time.” “He just got there.” “Trump left him a hell of a mess. It’s unreasonable to expect him to turn things around in a month or two.” “Now is not the time to criticize him or the Democrats. When would be a good time? I don’t know, but certainly not now. Later.”
