Meghan McCain Wants Lindsey Graham to
Stop Talking
Posted By: Hazymac, 3/9/2026 8:19:54 AM
Political commentator Meghan McCain has built a career that began with a powerful advantage: her last name. The daughter of late Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), stepped into the national political conversation for decades because of her father's legacy. Meghan McCain never hid that connection, and she's defended her father's record with fierce loyalty since he died in 2018. Despite my thoughts about Meghan, her loyalty deserves respect; a daughter defending her father is hardly controversial, while she protects what she believes was an honorable legacy tied to her father's military service and Senate career.

Jesse Jackson's funeral was held Friday at the House of Hope on Chicago's South Side. Every major Democrat who still matters showed up: Joe Biden, Bill Clinton, Kamala Harris, Hillary Clinton, Jill Biden, California Gov. Gavin Newsom.
That’s right: sitting with a bunch of other couples, Barack Obama once again went stag. The Obamas themselves issued a joint statement about Jackson's death that made Michelle's absence on Friday all the more glaring. "Michelle got her first glimpse of political organizing at the Jacksons' kitchen table when she was a teenager," the statement read. "And in his two historic runs for president, he laid the foundation for my own campaign

We have been following the progress of the proposed tax on the wealth of billionaires that theatens to make its way onto the ballot in Callifornia this November. It represents a bald form of “the danger of democratic theft” that John and I discussed in our 2005 essay on the income tax:
"Given that poorer citizens always outnumber the rich, political philosophers have long worried that government based on majority rule could lead to organized theft from the wealthy by the democratic masses. “If the majority distributes among itself the things of a minority, it is evident that it will destroy the city,” warns Aristotle. Taxation can become a way
The U.S. and Israel launched a joint attack nicknamed both "Epic Fury" (U.S.) and "Roaring Lion" (Israel), Feb 28, 2026, shattering targets across Iran. In the smoking aftermath of this devastating daylight assault on Iran, evaporating infrastructure and leadership alike, consider one thing. Before lashing out at the “unfairness” of our tag-team beatdown, please consider the inner logic of Iran’s need for a wholesale destruction. The cold facts are that Iran absolutely had to be taken out because of their murderous theology. This is undeniable -- a conclusion based upon the prophecies of the warrior messiah Mahdi. See below!
This original essay of June 26, 2025, detailed how the Muslim religious
Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. And, weak men create hard times.” G. Michael Hopf, Those Who Remain
Like most red-blooded American men, I think about sex and the Roman Empire numerous times every day. In recent years, I’ve added the above quote to that set.
As I think back, the different elements of it were probably floating around in some amorphous, uncoordinated morass in the back of my mind for years, never bothering to coalesce. No doubt the reason they didn’t is that for most of my life, America was enjoying the “Good times.”
Good doesn’t mean perfect, of course. For the first
Renewable Energy's Fake Alchemy
9 replies
In the quest to transform our energy systems, policymakers often promise a magical alchemy: turn away from reliable but "dirty" sources like coal, oil, and even nuclear, and replace them with abundant, cheap green energy. New York State has been a laboratory for this experiment since the early 2000s, aggressively phasing out fossil fuels and nuclear plants under the banner of environmental virtue. The result? Skyrocketing electricity bills for residents, even as overall consumption has declined. New York's experience offers a stark warning: green dreams can turn into economic nightmares when they ignore basic math and reality.
Back in 2007, New York generated about 150 terawatt-hours (TWh) of electricity in-state.
Let’s get real about what this latest iteration of the until-now endless Iran War is all about. There’s no imminent threat. That assertion is a pacifier to the weak-kneed and timid. Last June, we set the mullahs back years in their quest for nukes. They have a metric butt-load of ballistic missiles, rockets, and drones, but they weren’t going to fire them off unless we attacked them. After seeing Sulemani turned into sushi, and their nuclear weapons program neutered like a Bulwark job applicant in one fell swoop, they weren’t about to restart throwing fists as long as Donald Trump was in the White House. Note
It was a precise decapitation strike. The initial phase of Operation Epic Fury targeted Iran’s top political and military figures and achieved its goal. Their key leaders are now gone, including the core of their military command. In essence, anyone not deterred by our threats to stop their nuclear ambitions is eliminated.
The most significant target was Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, whom Israel was able to eliminate last weekend when this US-Israeli military operation began. They used the Blue Sparrow missile, which was able to rain hellfire from the heavens—literally. The missile seeks its target from space (via NY Post):
The Virginia-class fast attack submarine (the class is my speculation) USS Charlotte (SSN-776), a Los Angeles-class fast attack submarine sank an Iranian warship about 40 miles off Galle in southern Sri Lanka, killing at least 87 of the 200-plus crew. The ship was the IRIS Dena, a1,500-ton Moudge-class frigate. This class of ship was armed with surface-to-air missiles, a quick-firing 76mm cannon, torpedoes, and surface attack missiles housed in vertical launch cells.
IRIS Dena had been on the subcontinent since February 18, first participating in the International Fleet Review 2026 held at the Indian port of Visakhapatnam. This event was followed by participation in the annual Indian-sponsored Milan naval exercise.
Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens, whether driven by genuine Nazi-level antisemitism or sheer opportunism, have escalated their antisemitic and anti-religious rhetoric. They’ve now gone after Chabad, a Jewish outreach movement that seeks to help all Jews return to the fold through core values. The Tsar’s secret police, who wrote one of the most damaging hoaxes ever—The Protocols of the Elders of Zion—would be proud of these new American descendants.
To appreciate just how evil this dastardly duo is, you need to know a little about Chabad. It began 250 years ago in the shtetls of Russia, places where Jews were frequently persecuted
No need to cry over spilled Tucker Carlson

There is no need to cry over spilled Tucker Carlson. His sell by date has expired. Since his days as a Fox show host, he has taken a bizarre turn. As Douglas Murray noted of Carlson’s apparent motivation, “It seems sadly is just propelled by this desire to try to claim that America is basically run by Israel, Jews, and simply does the bidding of Israel…I’m afraid there’s a number of formerly serious and prominent figures who just see everything through this lens these days.”
Tucker sees conspiratorial Jewish machinations driving U.S. foreign policy. In reality, U.S. foreign policy has been guided by widespread sympathy for Israel,
Among the kingmakers, queenmakers, and they/themmakers of the far left is a stubborn contingent that clings to the belief that the cure for what ails the nation’s self-styled “progressives” has been right there among them for several years now, and that his name is Pete Buttigieg.
The failed transportation secretary has the gift of being acceptable to both the Democrat Party’s leftist establishment and power-to-the-people-right-on-let’s-burn-the-house-down wing, and while there really isn’t a dime’s worth of difference ideologically between the two factions, that’s still an unusual accomplishment.
Yet Pete is not polling all that well,

His “Glory Days” with some fans have passed him by. Bruce Springsteen’s fans are furious over the legendary rocker’s astronomical ticket prices for his upcoming “Land of Hope and Dreams” tour, which critics argue are unaffordable for his “working class fanbase” and contradict his Man of the People image. The woke New Jersey billionaire is pushing the anti-President Trump “No Kings” agenda in his advertising campaign for the 20-date tour with his E Street Band — but is ironically charging prices fit for royalty, at up to $3,000 a ticket. “I couldn’t be more disappointed in the Boss … how
CHARLESTON, SOUTH CAROLINA (AP) — Across the country, progressives are lighting a fire that they hope will catapult Democrats back to power in Congress this year. But here in a hotel ballroom, the party’s beleaguered moderates have another message — not so fast.
Leaders at Third Way’s conference talked over and over about how Democrats can’t swing too far left in the midterms, or when picking their next presidential nominee, if they have any hope of winning back the White House.
The title of the two-day, invite-only conference: “Winning the Middle.” And there was plenty of advice on how to do that. Be plainspoken, not lofty or academic. Don’t live online, but
A leaked draft of the UK Government’s new ‘social cohesion’ strategy has sparked outrage by labeling the flying of English, Scottish, and Union Jack flags as potential “tools of hate.”
The document claims these national symbols were sometimes used last summer to “exclude or intimidate,” adding that the “extreme right has tried to turn symbols of pride into tools of hate.”
The 47-page draft, leaked to the Spectator magazine, also highlights how antisemitism has become “normalised in many corners of society” from schools and universities to workplaces and the NHS.

On this week’s broadcast of “Fox News Sunday,” Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA) said President Donald Trump had not made the case for the military action in Iran.
Warner said, “Americans are paying $122 million a day extra in gas coming right out of their pockets, that, combined with the declining job numbers, that combined with the stock market crashing, going into this war without I don’t feel like the appropriate preparation or having made the case the American public, I think we’ve got a lot of explaining to do. We don’t know how long Iran will last. The notion and I heard the general earlier, I think
Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union,” Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) said the Trump administration “fails to understand how to achieve any of their objectives” in Iran.
Host Jake Tapper said, “So as I just referenced this morning on Axios, two very Well-sourced reporters in the administration, Barak Ravid, Marc Caputo for Axios are reporting that the US is weighing, they have not made a decision, but are weighing sending in special forces to specifically seize Iran’s enriched uranium. You heard Senator Tillis say that might necessitate congressional authorization for use of force. What’s your reaction?”
Murphy said, “I mean, this is already a war that is becoming an ongoing disaster.
Conservative icon and Hollywood legend James Woods has announced he’s ditching the Republican Party. Woods, a fierce patriot and vocal supporter of President Trump, blasted the “uniparty traitors” in a fiery post on X, declaring, “I am done with the Republican Party.” Woods’ decision comes amid growing frustration with Senate Republican leadership, particularly cowardly Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD), who has continuously stalled the crucial SAVE Act, a bill designed to safeguard American elections by requiring proof of citizenship for voter registration.[snip] “I’m changing my party affiliation to Independent.
Democrats in red Texas bet on far-left

Senate candidate who espouses non-binary
God, six genders 17 replies
In deep-red Texas, the Democrats have chosen a Senate candidate whose Christian faith the party hopes will be a potent weapon, but whose unorthodox views range from God is nonbinary to there are six sexes.
“God is both masculine and feminine and everything in between,” said James Talarico, a state representative and, now, the Democratic nominee for Senate. “God is nonbinary.”
Progressive Christianity may be a hard sell
The statement is part of dozens of claims about God, Christianity, and morality that Talarico has made on the campaign trail, and before he ran for higher office, geared towards “[reclaiming] Christianity for the left.”
It’s not really surprising. The trend of funerals turning into political rallies and platforms for lecturing those with whom they disagree started with Paul Wellstone's funeral, which was also a rally. So, when the memorial service for the late Reverend Jesse Jackson was held this week with Barack Obama, Joe Biden, the Clintons, and Kamala Harris in attendance, it was no surprise that it turned into a spectacle. It also serves as a reminder of why Donald J. Trump was elected in 2024. [Tweet]
First, Joe Biden, looking half out of his mind, got up there and attacked MAGA Republicans, claiming we don’t share their values.
A former Trump administration official wasted millions of taxpayer dollars given to Immigration and Customs Enforcement to purchase thousands of employee vehicles that the agency cannot use to arrest illegal immigrants, according to sources.

The saga (snip) speaks to the different ways political appointees at the department have tried to approach operations versus how career law enforcement officials have historically done so.
Mojtaba Khamenei, born on September 8, 1969, in Mashhad, is the second son of Ali Khamenei, Iran's former supreme leader, who was killed in an Israeli strike on February 28. An 88-member Assembly of Experts named him the Islamic Republic's new supreme leader on March 8, just over a week into a fierce war with the US and Israel.
Mojtaba is often described as enigmatic and, at the same time, one of the most influential figures in Iran's power corridors. He is known to have kept close links with the powerful Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), which many believe calls the shots in the country.
Officials say Operation Metro Surge cost Minneapolis over $203 million in impact. Many neighborhoods, like Lyn-Lake, are still feeling the effects.
