Re: About Those Young Republican Adolescents
“Unfortunately for the rest of us here in Virginia, the government bureaucrat class that has spilled over into Northern Virginia now puts the leftists in Richmond and Charlottesville over the top. This is very discouraging for those of us who are generational Virginians — a state that is the birthplace of American Liberty!” —Virginia
“Do you think the adolescent Young Republicans will get the message? Text messages live forever!” —Michigan
“There are offensive comments, and there are inexcusable comments promoting violence. Jay Jones is guilty of the latter. Trying to excuse his murderous, bloody comments as not reflective of how he feels now is nonsense. Anyone who even has such sadistic thoughts at any age is a sociopath.” —Pennsylvania
“Jones should be disbarred. Like ALL leftist socialists, he would be screaming bloody hell — but turn the tables and not a word!” —Arizona
“Alexander, thanks for this clarification about all those ‘No Kings’ leftists who are carrying American flags. What a farce. And as you note, in the words of George Washington, ‘Guard against the impostures of pretended patriotism.’” —California
Re: The Demos’ Deviant Transnormalcy Agenda
“A great and detailed reminder of the Left’s insidious agenda. Thank you!” —New York
“It’s called a ‘need to know’! Way back during WWII, the press was informing our enemies of activities related to our submarines. Government action limited this flow of harmful information, and the results were the naming of our submarine service to ‘The Silent Service.’ Lives were saved. Sometimes we don’t need to know everything happening behind closed doors.” —Washington
Re: Wikipedia Gets Some Competition
“Over the years, there have been many times when I found the information on Wikipedia to be rather incomplete. Other times, it has been almost 180 degrees off, and so-called facts were obviously edited in. People doing research are seeking the truth, not someone’s opinion. I think what Musk is proposing would be a great idea, but only if the AI can be thoroughly trusted. If it were programmed with any kind of a tilt, it could potentially be worse that what we now have to rely on.” —Missouri
Re: Dems Still Want Segregation Via Gerrymandering
“It appears KBJ wants to go back to Jim Crow laws with regard to voting. Is the next step back to no more women voting? Won’t that put the gender-confused in a tissy fit? How you square the oddball thinking of the Democrat Party is a mystery.” —California
“Love this essay, Douglas, and you are so right. When one listens to those who would purpose to mislead, one gets misled. I just keep wondering what website they are going to for definitions, because I have a hard time believing this level of ignorance. My greatest fear is that they are our teachers. Thank God for those like Charlie Kirk who challenge the ignorance of leftists.” —Wisconsin
“Can we all be serious here for a moment? How does a nauseating, incompetent, rich moron like Pritzker get elected in the first place? Let me see … oh, I forgot, he’s a Democrat. And we all know how Democrats get elected: they buy, rig, or steal elections and can always count on the unwavering support of their woefully and willfully ignorant supporters (AKA the low-information voter). Did I miss anything?” —North Carolina
“When Clinton left Arkansas to run for president, the people were more than happy to see his backside leave. The intelligent commonsense people that are left in Illinois will feel the same.” —Illinois
Re: Why Health Insurance Premiums Are Jumping
“It just seems odd to me that a nation that is 250 years old had no problem with healthcare — doctors used to make house calls and at times were even paid with a chicken or some other barter system — until the government tried to ‘fix’ it. Let me make it clear: The government is NOT the solution; for the most part, they are the problem!” —California
“As I recall from when ObamaCare was first introduced, there were 30 million uninsured Americans. Now, according to this article, there are 24 million people enrolled in ObamaCare. That implies we only have to enroll six million more people and the crisis will be ‘solved.’ Anytime the government takes over anything, it becomes more expensive and less efficient. Look at what happened to the education system and student loans. None of these programs needed to be nationalized. It was all done to buy votes. President Trump has recognized the problems inherent in these programs and is initiating reforms to improve or eliminate them.” —California
Re: Victorious
“Mr. Helle caught my attention with his reference to God’s word: ‘A joyful Christian is a victorious Christian.’ Amen and amen! I have been struggling with seeking and knowing the Lord’s will for my life — especially the joyful part. And just recently, this particular verse hit me square between the eyes: ‘Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus.’ (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18) There it is! The Lord’s will for me is to rejoice always! I am to rejoice and pray and give thanks each and every day. Lord, help me to do so! For this is what it means to be victorious!” —North Carolina
