Kamala Harris’ Unrealized Capital Gains Tax

Written by Dr. Everett Piper

There’s a meme going around recently regarding Vice President Kamala Harris’ proposal to impose an “unrealized capital gains” tax on American citizens.

The meme says:

“Your mom purchased her home 40 years ago. She paid $50,000 for it. It’s paid off, which is great because Mom lives on a fixed income. It’s now worth $500,000! Kamala Harris wants her to pay 25% of that gain even though your mom has no plans to sell the home.

The War on Truth, Deep State Style

Written by Robert Knight

It’s not even Halloween, and the election is two months away, yet the Russian hobgoblins are coming out again to scare all the boys and girls.

Attorney General Merrick Garland’s Justice Department is working hard to turn some annoying Russian cyber meddling into the greatest threat to “democracy” since Hillary Clinton’s operatives hatched the Russian collusion hoax of 2016.

Here’s how it works. The FBI identifies “divisive” themes put out by Russian bots, such as citizens’ concerns over inflation or crimes committed by illegal aliens and then denounces them as “disinformation.” … Continue Reading

Making It Too Big To Rig

Written by Don Surber

On Labor Day, the traditional start of fall election campaigns, Real Clear Politics gave Kamala Harris a lead of 1.8 points in the national polls. On the same date in 2020, Joe Biden had a 7.2 point lead. On the same date in 2016, Hillary Clinton had a 4.1 point lead.

While this appears to be comforting news, the three races were different because the first two races had October Surprises that favored Donald J.… Continue Reading

Media Bias Makes It Easier To Run a ‘Flawless’ Campaign

Written by Tim Graham

There is never a level playing field in an American election. For example, the two major political parties have major advantages that third parties can’t muster. Another example is the major Democratic Party advantage of the home-team announcers calling the action on the playing field. Our national media set the terms and the tone of our democracy.

The pro-Democrat tilt of every election comes to mind when the pseudo-conservative Alyssa Farah Griffin gushed on ABC’s “The View” on Sept.… Continue Reading

Kamala’s Husband Tells Men to Defend the “Right” to Kill Preborn Babies

Written by Peter Heck

Could there be anything more creepy?

Last weekend, the “second gentleman” of the United States, Douglass Emhoff, took to X to post his personal support of child killing for convenience:

The stakes of this election couldn't be higher. It's time for men to step up for reproductive freedom. https://t.co/WCboun9eOW

— Doug Emhoff (@DouglasEmhoff) August 31, 2024

I understand the politics behind the post. Since the Dobbs decision overturned Roe v Wade, Democrats have been capitalizing financially and electorally on the issue of aborting children in the womb.… Continue Reading

What Does Kamala Harris Mean by Joy?

Written by Dr. Everett Piper

Can we agree that words mean something? All of us know that there is great power in our words and that civilizations are built and cultures are conquered not so much by armies and navies, but by speeches and lectures, blogs and books — in other words, by the power of our words more so than the threat of bullets and bombs.

This was Huxley and Orwell’s message. They warned of dystopias where the manipulation of words would be used as a means to total power and total control.… Continue Reading

• Provided religious exemptions from the contraceptive mandate
• Advocated for the repeal of the Johnson Amendment

Alienating the Base

Written by Erick Erickson

In the real world, no nationwide abortion ban is going to pass Congress, so Donald Trump will never have the opportunity to veto it. As a practical matter, concerns from pro-life activists amount to nothing because nothing is going to happen at the federal level. But for Trump and JD Vance, how they have improvised answers to the concerns of pro-life voters could hurt them more than help them. At the local level, the pro-life movement is on defense and losing every state that puts the matter up to a public vote.… Continue Reading
