From Jonathan Turley. For many liberal groups, Ketanji Brown Jackson is a supreme “deliverable” by President Biden. Activist groups have pushed her nomination to the Supreme Court while opposing the consideration of fellow short-lister District Judge J. Michelle Childs. These groups clearly did not like Childs and her more moderate take on legal issues. Yet the interesting question…

Trained military observers watching the Russian invasion of Ukraine unfold are finding themselves baffled by by both the scale of the operation and its seeming lack of coordination and effectiveness. Russia is a world power and its military is that of a world power. In the air and on the ground, not taking into account…

Russia’s military is numerically powerful and historically weak. The Russians have lost far more wars than they’ve won including against opponents like the Japanese in the Russo-Japanese war where they should have been able to easily triumph in terms of sheer technological prowess alone.

The unsubtle implication is that European countries, especially Eastern European nations, especially countries like Poland, Czechia, and Hungary which were reluctant to accept masses of Islamic migrants, are racist for being willing to accept Ukrainian refugees fleeing…

Before and after the election, Democrats accused Trump appointee Postmaster General Louis DeJoy of seeking to destroy the postal service and of preventing everyone from getting their mail. While the attacks really exploded around the time of the election, and the obsession of the Democrats in getting mail ballots to as many of their supporters…

Since some of the usual trolls have felt the need to make a case out of this, here’s what I actually wrote about a possible war in the Ukraine. There may indeed be an invasion and a war, but it won’t involve the United States. Eastern Europe, like the Middle East, has been learning the…
