"And what has Sanders done? He’s built nothing and lives to tear down what others have produced. He stirs up resentment, rails against choice, has been trying to slay the oligarch dragons for more than three decades, and wants to force the country to join a commune that he designs and runs."
"The cranky Vermont senator who believes billionaires should be abolished wants to legislate them out of existence. It’s too bad that he doesn’t understand that one billionaire is more valuable than a thousand Bernie Sanders." . . . More...
"As Trump’s first term unfolded, however, we marveled that he seemed to grow more conservative by the day."
"Virulent Trump-hater George Will penned a column in the wake of the Iran attacks titled “At last, the credibility of U.S. deterrence is being restored.”
"Do you think Will turned a corner about President Donald Trump? Hardly.
"If you want to know who restored the credibility of U.S. deterrence, Will isn’t saying. You’d think it fell out of the sky.
"The most he will concede is that “Donald Trump’s administration has chosen not to wager U.S. safety on Iran’s abandoning its multi-decade pursuit of nuclear weapons, or on Iran’s acquiring them but not really meaning ‘Death to America.’”
"Wait. Trump’s “administration” made that choice? To whom in the administration is Will referring, if not Trump himself? The secretary of Agriculture? The EPA administrator? The guy managing the nation’s helium reserve?
"Despite admitting that Trump has engineered a profound reversal in the U.S. standing in the world, George Will is sure to go right back to writing about how dangerous and incompetent he and his administration officials are. He will have plenty of company, to be sure.
"In Trump’s first term – despite facing a weaponized Justice Department and fending off impeachments – he cut taxes, did more to deregulate the economy than any predecessor, spurred domestic energy production, and appointed solid conservatives to the bench (who then overturned the horrible Roe v. Wade decision).
" 'All had been on conservative wish lists for eons.
"Trump is checking off conservative wish list items even faster in his second term – cutting funding to public broadcasting, draining the DEI swamp, setting the course to sunset the Education Department, and now, even as George Will admits, restoring the credibility of U.S. deterrence." . . .

"On March 6, 2026, Mark Levin described what may be an unprecedented moment in American history: a major political party actively undermining the military and the commander-in-chief during the onset of a military operation. With Operation Epic Fury targeting Iran’s nuclear facilities, ballistic missile programs, and the entire Islamist regime, Levin and guest Lee Smith laid out a damning case — with quotes, polling data, and roughly 50 years of Iranians killing Americans — that the Democrats’ war is focused on political power, not American interests.
"The Democrat Party’s immediate response to Operation Epic Fury is unique: its senior leaders — Schumer, Jeffries, Murphy, Warner, and Kaine — instantly attacked the mission and predicted its failure while American forces were engaged in combat against Iran’s nuclear and military infrastructure. And Democrats introduced War Powers resolutions to constrain the commander-in-chief in real time — which no political party has ever done during the first phase of a new and successful military campaign."
"A political party that opens the borders to tens of millions of unknowns, defunds the police and DHS, frees violent criminals en masse, and secretly funds Iran’s nuclear and terror ambitions — well, that isn’t a real American party at all. It’s something else.
"Trump now has clear, achievable objectives: Ensure the mullahs don't get their blood-stained hands on any nukes, end the regime's ballistic missile capabilities, and destroy the Iranian navy so it can't threaten world shipping."
"If one of your national slogans is "Death to America," you should be living in persistent and paralyzing fear of the United States.
"Say what you will about President Donald Trump, America's enemies aren't making any more demands after Operation Epic Fury. Not after the president shattered nearly five decades of Washington foreign policy appeasing, legitimizing, and emboldening the Iranian regime, one of our most enduring and dangerous enemies.
"It's fun to rail against "neocons," the isolationist's euphemism for anyone who believes in American military action, on podcasts, and a far different story in a world where ballistic missiles, terrorist networks, nuclear programs, and Chinese Communist Party expansion exist.
"Trump has already reset American foreign policy by rejecting both the technocratic naivety of neoconservatism and the unfeasible demands of isolationism. He has also shed the convoluted, pseudointellectual foreign policy theories that had congealed as conventional Washington wisdom.
"One of the bogus "norms" propagated by experts, and now "America First" isolationists, is that any military action needs to be contingent on short-term "imminent" threats against the U.S." . . .
The BBC’s Persian service mistranslated remarks by U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, making it look as though he said U.S. forces were targeting the Iranian “people” rather than the Iranian “regime.”
"The BBC is facing backlash after BBC Persian mistranslated comments made by U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth during a broadcast. In the original speech, Hegseth made clear that U.S. military operations in Iran are aimed at Iran’s regime rather than its citizens, stating, “It turns out the regime that chanted ‘Death to America and death to Israel’ was gifted death from America and death from Israel. This is not a so-called regime change war, but the regime sure did change, and the world is better off for it.” However, BBC Persian translated this as: “It turns out the people that chanted ‘Death to America and death to Israel’ was gifted death from America and death from Israel,” making it look as though the Iranian people as a whole, rather than the Islamic Republic’s ruling mullahs, are being targeted.
"The mistranslation drew swift backlash, and BBC Persian subsequently acknowledged the issue and issued a correction, claiming it was an unintentional mistake made by the interpreter during real-time simultaneous translation.
Below: 'Cigarette girl' burning ayatollah's photo becomes Iran resistance symbol | AP NewsThe images of women lighting cigarettes from burning photos of Khamenei went viral and grabbed attention across the world. This trend is not new to the world, as the same defiance was seen in 2022 after the death of a 22-year-old, Mahsa Amini.
"Commentator Carl Higbie argued that recent protests in the United States connected to foreign policy decisions may be linked to funding tied to China, while highlighting a series of moves by President Donald Trump involving oil markets, shipping routes, and global trade.
"During a segment discussing protests that erupted after recent military actions involving Iran and Venezuela, Higbie said the demonstrations appeared coordinated and organized.
"What does Trump’s new shipping insurance declaration for the Strait of Hormuz, Iran, Venezuela and the Panama Canal and China all have in common? Well, come on down this rabbit hole with me, and believe it or not, it starts right here in America with protests,” Higbie said.
"Violence erupted Friday evening at Washington Square Park in Manhattan during a vigil organized for Iran’s Ayatollah Ali Khamenei after a counter-protester tore down a photo of the cleric, leading to a confrontation that left the man bloodied and several people taken into custody.
"The incident occurred during a small gathering where roughly 25 people had assembled to commemorate Khamenei, who was killed last Saturday during a joint U.S.–Israeli military strike known as “Operation Fury.”
"The operation targeted Iranian leadership and infrastructure, with Israeli missiles striking Khamenei’s compound." . . .
“I couldn’t help but notice that all the protests in the US within hours of the Iranian strike, this seems pretty well organized. In fact, they’re all carrying bundles of signs to distribute to the crowd. Look at the nice yellow, black writing. And have you ever noticed that all the people protesting these airstrikes in Iran have the exact same signs, exact same fonts, exact same colors, and in many cases, some of these appear to be the same people from the Venezuela protest a month ago.” . . .

"If you want to know why Donald Trump was elected, watch Barack Obama’s attack speech yesterday at Jesse Jackson’s funeral. As he did throughout his presidency, he created a straw man to describe Republicans as bigots who force the American people to “turn on each other”.
He said similar crap when he was President and the GOP was the party of Bush, McCain and Romney. It’s the language of bitterness and resentment that makes good people recoil to be described that way.
Obama is one of the most divisive figures in US history, except he is celebrated by the MSM because they are partisans. They take sides and loved and protected Obama.
It’s no wonder a tough, no BS, bull in the China shop emerged. That person was a fed up Trump, who broke the MSM by not caring what they thought. He showed Rs they could punch back against the Ds and win. His rise coincided with the welcome birth, at long last, of conservative media which gave voice to the voiceless who had been forced to consume the prejudices of the MSM.
I can’t stand Obama. He was weak, patronizing, condescending and he put America last.
"And Kamala Harris got up there with all the hits, reminding us how we all dodged a bullet by keeping her out of the Oval Office. A person who hates making tough decisions, and that’s Kamala, isn’t meant for that job. Oh, and she’s still mentally challenged. Also, you didn't predict Jack, honey. You don't have the bandwidth."
But having listened to him yesterday, I reminded the only good thing he did was help elect President Trump. Kamala Harris made a statement. She said, ‘This is a war the American people don’t want. “And who knows more about what the American people don’t want?”
"LONDON — Cars draped in the flags of Iran’s former monarchy drove through the streets of north London on Saturday night, blaring lively music and honking their horns, shortly after reports came out that the Islamic Republic’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, was killed earlier that day in an Israeli airstrike — and even before Iranian media confirmed the death of the man who had brutally ruled the country for 36 years.
"Alongside them, pedestrians sang and cheered. They did not just bear the Iranian colors — but those of Israel and the United States, as well.
"Khamenei had presided over a brutal crackdown on anti-government protests in January in which thousands of Iranians were killed by security forces, and citizens at home and abroad welcomed the news of his death, which came amid heavy bombing of regime and military targets by the US and Israel. Both US President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have urged citizens in Iran to take to the streets and finish the job of toppling the regime once the aerial campaign is over.
"In the meantime, areas home to both Jewish and Iranian communities, such as Finchley and Golders Green, saw massive celebrations that included displays of fireworks and members of the Orthodox Jewish community singing in Persian and Hebrew together with their Iranian neighbors.
“ 'We’d just finished dinner in London when we heard that Khamenei had reportedly been confirmed dead,” Meir Porat, a 55-year-old construction manager, told The Times of Israel. “Within minutes, word spread that spontaneous celebrations were happening in north London. I knew this was not a moment to watch from a distance.”
"And the public is told that these people are the adults in the room, the compassionate people, the progressive people, the smart people by most of the media as they seek to destroy Trump every day of his presidency."
"What is with the media these days?
"Here is an article by people posing as journalists at Reuters whose writing would make you think they are deer in the headlights.
U.S. President Donald Trump demanded Iran's "unconditional surrender" on Friday, a dramatic escalation one week into the war he launched alongside Israel that could make it more difficult to negotiate a swift end to hostilities.
"They think it is terrible that Trump demands unconditional surrender from Iranian leaders as they are pounded to oblivion because it harms "diplomacy" as if that has worked for 47 years to end the destruction of the Iranian people and the damage to the world.
"They loved Presidents Obama and Biden as they catered to Iranian leaders and gave them boatloads of money to build weapons and support terrorist groups. They didn't mind when Obama shipped the Iranian leaders cash and when he let Hezbollah off the hook for drugging in the U.S to appease Iran. They probably thought that was "smart" diplomacy.
Another article from Reuters says that Russia and China demand an immediate end to the war in Iran as they continue a four-year war on Ukraine. This is what they wrote:
China's Wang says killing of Iranian leader unacceptable
Wang, Russia's Lavrov call for immediate end to strikes
Russia says security of Gulf states must be guaranteed
U.S. and Israeli attacks on Iran are unacceptable, China's Foreign Minister Wang Yi said on Sunday as he called for an immediate ceasefire and the resumption of talks to prevent a wider regional conflict.
"The Reuters writer probably doesn't see a problem with that or think that Russia and Chian should have a say. They clearly don't care that Iran has had a policy of death to America and death to Israel.
"And here in this United Nations press release are the UN experts on human rights demanding an end to the war because it is a threat to the right to life. " . . .More
"Black Democratic strategists, lawmakers and activists are frustrated that Texas Democrats rejected Jasmine Crockett as their Senate nominee Tuesday night — but they also saw it coming.
"Following Crockett’ssingle-digit loss, they recounted a laundry list of why she fell to state Rep. James Talarico: Her campaign was unfocused; she had an insufficient campaign infrastructure to challenge Talarico, even though she earned the backing of former Vice President Kamala Harris. They also said her media strategy relied too heavily on social media rather than television ad buys — typically seen as critical in a sprawling state like Texas and its nearly two dozen media markets.
“ 'People who don’t understand politics will be upset because Jasmine was their hero,” said Texas state Rep. Jolanda Jones, a Democrat. “But for people who understand politics, [Crockett] literally had no ground game.”
"She added: “This L is on her.”
"Taken together, Crockett’s campaign shortcomings doomed the upstart Senate bid of the two-term congressmember who entered the contest with broad name recognition and hopes of showcasing her firebrand personality and penchant for viral moments to help Texas Democrats end their nearly 40-year winless streak in Senate races.
"Still, Black strategists and activists warn Crockett’s loss will have ripple effects.
They say the party rejected an established star in favor of an untested, white state lawmaker over style — the two candidates did not substantively disagree on policy — raising concerns that Black voters, especially women, will not turn out when the party needs them the most.
“ 'A lot of Black women who work in the Democratic Party, vote for Democrats, organize for Democrats, have always had a sense of this,” said Houston-based political strategist and social media influencer Tayhlor Coleman. “It is a lot more apparent now: A lot of people in the Democratic Party want our labor, they do not want our leadership.” . . .

"Any efforts to eliminate daylight saving time in Washington, D.C., will likely have backing from President Donald Trump, who previously suggested he’d support it, saying it was inconvenient and costly."
"It’s almost time!
Daylight saving time will begin on Sunday, causing clocks to skip forward an hour at 2:00 a.m. for most people living in the United States.
The majority of Americans who are expected to lose an hour of sleep on March 8 don’t support the current daylight saving system.
An AP-NORC poll from 2025 showed that just over 10 percent of Americans supported the current system, while nearly half of the others polled opposed it. The rest of the survey-takers remained neutral about the topic.
But there are efforts to lock the clock so Americans can press snooze (for good) on the ongoing “spring forward” and “fall back” rules, which disrupt sleep schedules from coast to coast twice a year.
History
Daylight saving has been a controversial topic for over a decade in the United States.
In the late 1800s, railroads used different time zones. Then, in the 1940s, President Franklin D. Roosevelt turned the entire nation’s clocks an hour ahead to save energy for World War II, and after that, in the 1960s, the Uniform Time Act of 1966 established a uniform Daylight Saving Time across most of America.
Every year, daylight saving time starts on the second Sunday in March for “spring forward” and ends on the first Sunday in November for “fall back.”
"New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is facing renewed scrutiny after a report claimed his wife, Rama Duwaji, liked several social media posts appearing to celebrate Hamas’s October 7, 2023, terrorist attack against Israel.
"The report, published by Jewish Insider, says the activity occurred shortly after the assault that killed nearly 1,200 Israelis and foreign workers, wounded thousands, and saw 251 civilians and military personnel kidnapped, along with reports of widespread rape.
“New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani spent the mayoral campaign distancing himself from the most radical anti-Israel elements of his leftist movement, but an examination of his wife’s social media activity reveals she liked multiple Instagram posts cheering on Hamas’ Oct. 7, 2023, assault,” Jewish Insider reported.
“The posts liked by Rama Duwaji, a Syrian-American artist, unambiguously celebrated the terrorist attack, which saw nearly 1,200 Israelis and foreign workers killed, thousands wounded, 251 civilians and military personnel kidnapped, and numerous episodes of sexual assault.”
