  • Democrats’ Big Lie #4688 – Voter Suppression

    George Rebane Voter fraud in America is real and bipartisan according to evidence presented by the Heritage Foundation.  To combat voter fraud, states have instituted “voter identification laws and programs to clean up wildly inaccurate voter rolls to help verify that only eligible individuals are voting, and that they are casting ballots in the jurisdictions where…

  • Ruminations – 21nov19 (updated 22nov19)

    George Rebane Those creative Dems on Team Schiff have again expanded the definition of ‘evidence’.  The initial expansion qualified 'allegations' for inclusion. And from yesterday’s hearings we learned that ‘perceptions’ have now joined the ranks of culpable evidence.  For those paying attention, ‘feelings’ are waiting in the wings, and are next to shoulder and again…

  • Scattershots – 15nov19

    George Rebane ‘Schiff’s Obstruction Theory’ is a particularly revealing analysis of constitutional law and its SCOTUS interpretations by David Rivkin and Lee Casey, two well-respected lawyers with White House experience who practice appellate and constitutional law in Washington DC.  A key point in their analysis is Schiff’s reluctance to formally adjudicate his claimed evidence of…

  • The Silence of Socialists

    George Rebane This morning’s cartoon in the 12nov19 Union (filched below) was a heartening surprise.  Our leftwing political cartoonist Bob Crabb is possibly the first from his political pole to recognize the Great California Exodus frequently covered here and recognized nationally.  The state’s socialists, echoed by our local progressives, are in terminal denial that California…

  • Income Inequality Revealed (addended)

    George Rebane [This is the addended transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 6 November 2019.] Income inequality in America has become a hot button issue.  People in the street are being convinced daily that the inequality is somehow morally reprehensible since they are made to believe that the inequality comes from the rich…

  • Scattershots – 3nov19 (updated 6nov19)

    George Rebane Our increasingly dysfunctional school system makes itself felt every time any of us uses a text editor such as MS Word, or one embedded in some app such as the TypePad comment box.  The programmers who write the code that edits what you type are really drawn from a class of dimwits who…

  • Dropout Derby (updated 1nov19)

    George Rebane It’s funny when all the progressives dismissed Beto’s “Damn right, we’ll take your …!” as being his exit speech.  Now they’ll have no problem finding other excuses why this patently unqualified asshole is no longer in the Dem’s line-up.  Welcome to Mr fish as our new leader.

  • Democrats’ Big Lies #s 4682, 4683, 4684 – Three Recent Biggies (updated)

    George Rebane Let’s start with Nancy Pelosi’s whopper proclaimed from the high altar of the House – “No one came to Congress to impeach the President of the United States.  No one.” Anyone who has been paying the slightest attention to American politics since 2016 knows that high on the do-list of all the country’s…

  • Sacramento Owns the Blackouts

    “Can 40 million suffer third-world electric reliability without a political upheaval?” asks Holman Jenkins, 29oct19 WSJ George Rebane Northern Californians have now suffered multiple power blackouts in recent weeks and we are told by many that from here on this may become the new norm for our state – in other words, prepare your life…

  • Scattershots – 23oct19 (updated 26oct19)

    George Rebane Gov Newsom is outraged about the price of gasoline in California.  He doesn’t understand why current prices in the state are well into the $4/gal range.  In the best wisdom he and his can muster, they all accuse the oil companies for price fixing as the answer – another swig from the ‘capitalism…
