Manliness and Godliness
It’s been 34 weeks since the triumphant 1.5% landslide election of The Leader’s purchased president. Inspiring though these weeks have been, there must have been moments in which The Leader questioned this investment. At his awkward exit from Washington, perhaps, or The Big Beautiful Bill that explodes the deficit he worked so dramatically to reduce…

Worth Doing Well
Who doesn’t love a parade? And who can deny how well attended the President’s birthday bash was despite the late call for seat fillers (to take advantage of absent elected republicans)?

I still thrill at the memory of that monumental 1.5% landslide victory. Think of all that’s already happened: no more ties to weak, stale Europe; Canada eagerly awaiting statehood; Mexico at…

Big Beautiful Exceptionalism
I was weaned on American exceptionalism. I reveled in our shared abundance – natural resources, innovation, ambition, Hollywood, the Grand Canyon, the Big Apple, due process, the rule of law. Broad stripes and bright stars. Amber waves of grain. I studied our history in college, learning essentially that our past was an exercise in working…
