Women want to be treated like partners, not property. Men who get this are far less likely to suffer from loneliness.
Here we are fighting culture wars and gender wars when class is the real problem.
Much of life is learning to overcome our worst human impulses, which seem to be gaining ground right now. Fortunately, nothing neutralizes them faster than love, empathy, compassion, and cooperation.
I was in Paris in December of 2008, right after Obama was elected the first time. There were posters around the city of Obama dressed as Superman. How far we’ve fallen since then.
I knew a second Trump term would be bad. Really bad. I still underestimated how bad it would be.
A pattern is emerging: it’s women in the regime who are thrown under the bus first. Surprising.
See you on Saturday, Anchorage!

Trump is not playing four-dimensional chess in Iran. He’s not even playing with a full deck of cards.
Interesting discussion on Conservative Truth this morning. They’re rather slow on the uptake, but I do believe they’re beginning to get it.
How can someone who avoided military service be allowed to send other people’s children into war? No one who hasn’t experienced war firsthand should be in a position to start one. And no one should start a war unless they are willing to send their own children to fight in it.

The American and French Revolutions were started over less egregious crimes against humanity than we’re experiencing now.
Sometimes it’s wise to shut up. Sometimes it’s wise to speak up. Guess what time this is.
Spotted “Yes Man Dan” in downtown Anchorage this afternoon! #senatordansullivan
It was too quiet today. Makes me nervous. What are they cooking up next?
If you must travel to Mordor, remember there is always a happy hobbit hole waiting back in the Shire.
Haven’t they learned what happens when they make martyrs? They’re about to find out.
Just want to point out that Alex Pretti’s last act was to come to the aid of another human being—something we typically ascribe to heroes, and to real men. That act seemed to enrage the shooter(s). Why?
ICE and CBP showing up in face masks and body armor. 9mm handguns. AR-15-style rifles. Pepper spray. Stun grenades. Protesters showing up with signs and whistles. Chants. Donuts. Handkerchiefs. Conviction. Each other. Who is the braver?
Alex’s Dog I heard how much he loved his dog, and all I can think is somewhere in Minneapolis tonight a dog is waiting for his person who will never come home.
