The biggest loser in the Trump-Harris debate
The biggest loser in the first (and likely only) presidential debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Trump was ABC News, which hosted the faceoff. The moderators, David Muir and Linsey Davis, embarrassed themselves and their network by, among other things, fact-checking Trump in real time on more than one occasion – sometimes...
Morning Glory: ABC News and its pass/fail test
CNN “passed” its test in that came in the form of the first presidential date in June between President Biden and former President Trump. Opinions are divided on whether CNN passed or failed in its interview of Vice President Kamala Harris. (Having helped moderate five GOP presidential primary debates and being the only non-network individual...
In the Trump-Harris faceoff there was a clear winner but don't believe this election is over
It’s pretty clear to me that on Tuesday night, Vice President Kamala Harris won what may be the only debate between herself and former President Trump. The vice president had some help, too.

How important is Tuesday night’s debate between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris? Extremely important: based on the evening’s face-off in Philadelphia, voters could well decide who becomes the next president of the United States. Why such drama? Because Vice President Kamala Harris adopted, weeks ago, a ridiculous campaign strategy of hiding...
Democrats continue to play Black people for fools and you won't believe the latest example

On Tuesday, September 10, former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo will be testifying publicly before Congress for the first time regarding his COVID-19 nursing home policies and the March 25, 2020, directive that brought in over 9,000 coronavirus patients into care facilities across the state.

What a rollicking band of Billboard charting bluegrass-loving friars taught me about a life of faith
Anytime I hear the hauntingly beautiful song,”Mr. Tanner,” by Harry Chapin, I struggle to keep a dry eye. In it, Martin Tanner is a launderer and baritone with an otherworldly voice.
