From the time Donald and Melania Trump descended the escalator to announce his candidacy for President of the United States, there has been little other than a torrent of hate directed at him, his family, and all who support him. We have endured the past several years being required to account for how we could support such a man.
For me, it was simple. My support for Donald Trump in 2016 and 2020 (clearly explained to family and friends) came down to the three pillars of American exceptionalism

Sen. Joe Manchin (D. WV) continues to deserve credit, along with Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D. AZ), for holding firm on the filibuster. Without them, the Democrat wish list, including packing the Supreme Court, would have been met a year ago. However, after blocking the economically destructive “Build Back Better” bill, Manchin suddenly collapsed and agreed to a $739 billion bill that includes climate change garbage and increased corporate taxes. This deal is so bad that Sen. Lindsey Graham (R. SC), who’s reverted to his old, pre-Kavanaugh ways of putting collegiality ahead of America, strongly castigated Manchin.

For the past few days, I’ve been trying to explain to a millennial the concept of that “Great America” that is encompassed in Trump’s MAGA slogan (“Make America Great Again”). Marinated in modern academia, which hates America, he simply doesn’t get it. Perhaps that’s why I was stunned by the perspicacity in Michael Anton’s latest, which looks at the ruling class’s vision of America, a vision that, in its own way, is even more antithetical to the MAGA viewpoint than this young man’s generalized disdain.

The first Biden administration press secretary, Jen Psaki, was snarky and dishonest but she wasn’t stupid. The same cannot be said about Karine Jean-Pierre. Jean-Pierre, who defines herself by her race, gender, and sexuality, rather than by her abilities (which is really sad when you think about it), is staggeringly bad at her job, daily exposing the vast chasm behind her eyes and between her ears. The latest example is her response when asked about why it’s fine for the administration to fly illegal aliens across America but not fine for Texas to send them to Biden’s and Jean-Pierre’s hometown of Washington D.C.

San Francisco has declared a state of emergency over the spread of Monkeypox in the city, Mayor London Breed said Thursday as the number of cases soared in July.
The first case of the virus, which is predominately affecting the gay and bisexual community, was recorded on June 3. By July 28, the number of cases reached 281, according to the city.
“San Francisco is declaring a Local Public Health Emergency for monkeypox. This declaration will go into effect starting August 1 and will allow us to prepare and dedicate resources to prevent the spread,” Breed said.

Congressional Republicans are floating the idea of investigating Dr. Anthony Fauci and the Biden administration’s response to the COVID pandemic should they win back the majority in the midterms.
Senator Rand Paul (R-Ky.), who is in line to become chairman of the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP) Committee, if Republicans win the majority in the U.S. Senate, told The Hill that Republicans will attempt to get the answers from Fauci.
“One way or another, if we are in the majority, we will subpoena his records and he will testify in the Senate under oath,” he said.

Asked if he could go back to March of 2020 and start over with the pandemic response, Dr. Fauci admitted that mistakes were made in his and the CDC's response to COVID's initial spread but refused blame for collateral damage caused by public health officials. What he did admit? That masking and social distancing restrictions should have been "much, much more stringent" than they were.
"If I knew in 2020 what I know now, we would do a lot differently," he said during an interview on HillTV's Rising.

Close enough for government work’ has taken on a whole new dimension in the Biden era with the remarks reportedly delivered by CIA Director William Burns Wednesday at an Aspen Security Forum discussion. Jerry Dunleavy of the Washington Examiner has the story.
CIA Director William Burns said he is “very proud” of the agency’s analysis in Afghanistan in 2021 despite being blindsided by the swift collapse of the Afghan government and failing to predict how quickly the Taliban would take Kabul.

Professionals who need a graduate degree to ply their trade—doctors and lawyers, mostly—are incredibly protective of their ability to work in their chosen professions. They’ve invested years and tens (or even hundreds) of thousands of dollars in attaining their credentials, passed licensing exams, gotten checked out by the police, and worked years in their field to attain the upper-middle-class success to which they aspire. That’s why the latest leftist tactic is one of the most vicious: trying to disbar attorneys who worked on Trump’s election lawsuits.

If you have been paying any attention at all to academia in this country, you know it has entered a dark age, neglecting what my alma mater once described as its function: A place for the sifting and winnowing of ideas. Today’s academic “marketplace” increasingly sells only one product, drives others from the agora with a variety of bullying actions, and threatens both the sellers and purchasers into silence about alternate products.
Here’s an eye-opener to illustrate the extent of the assault on free speech and free thought.

Yesterday, Vice Kamala Harris delivered a speech at the American Rescue Plan Workforce Development Summit.
Harris told her audience the following
“Together, we are investing in training programs and apprenticeships that give workers the skills they need to take on the jobs with better wages and better benefits — in particular, workers from underrepresented backgrounds.”
Harris had just achieved the seemingly impossible by her standard -- she had constructed a meaningful sentence. But before her aides could leap with joy to celebrate the accomplishment, Kamala served another word salad.

As our nation descends into a recession and Americans worry about how to pay their bills and feed their families, leaders in the Republican Party have decided to keep quiet. Their strategy is to let the political party in power, the Democrats, self-destruct.
Without question, Democrats have done a horrible job leading the nation. As the party in control of Congress and the White House, Democrats are responsible for the high inflation and gas prices that are wrecking the nation's economy.
