Confessions of a Conservative

Trump truly is the luckiest mofo to ever live. I didn't think the Epstein story was going anywhere fast, but there was some kind of opening with his base, and the Journal promptly blew that up their suspect reporting. Now this?

Is it possible that the experts were wrong yet again on tariffs? How could that be? Even before the deal, Japan was paying the freight and discounting their cars because, surprise, surprise, they can't sell them anywhere else. Who knew?

Russian collusion: A fake conspiracy about a fake conspiracy? The purveyors of the fake Russian collusion conspiracy theory now find themselves claiming they, in fact, are the victims of a fake conspiracy theory perpetrated by Donald Trump himself. confessionsofaconservative.com/2025/07/23/rus…

Can you add pathetic, nauseating, and useless, and can someone get some sense of perspective? This hack was making $20 and $40 million a year with barely 2 million viewers and no syndication value. We should all be so persecuted.

Talk about never seeing his like again. While some might dismiss him as some sort of derelict lunatic as a result of his addled public persona, there are few in the history of modern music that have produced a song catalog stretching over five decades. I was fortunate enough to…

At the same time, isn't a delusional rewriting of history to claim they don't want to wipe a country off the map an improvement of some kind, as in better than the alternative before the 12 day war? :)

At this point, this almost seems like a parody. Setting aside that there are nowhere near the 60 votes required to get anything like this passed, how can someone be so out of touch with the Republican base to think amnesty of any kind might fly right now?

Trump, Epstein, The Wall Street Journal, and the media’s ongoing suicide. If the supposed birthday letter sent to Epstein 22 years ago is any indication, the media continues the very practices that have made them among the least trusted institutions. confessionsofaconservative.com/2025/07/22/tru…

But of course, what else could it be? As we all know, everything they don't like is racist. :)

I am not sure if @KurtSchlichter meant to, but I think he might have hit on a new slogan for the entire Democrat party. Senseless, tediously not funny, and just plain dumb. :)

While I am pleased Gabbard is making this public and the DoJ is investigating, I am inclined to agree with Mr. Hinderaker. To begin with, what is actually the crime? Conspiracy? That will be impossible to approve and convict in DC. Perjury? Perhaps, but even that is a high…

I agree with that, but I think the crux is more fundamental: Why is the US government in this business to begin with? To me at least, it's a core principle of representative democracy that tax dollars should not be spent on political endeavors and the media is de facto…

What's the old expression about needing to ask? Ultimately, progressives have been left defending a man, veteran or not, who watched 14 year old's coming to work in the fields everyday and did nothing. Where's the compassion?

To anyone that grew up in New Jersey in the 1980s, you could do this for yourself in real life at the infamous Action Park. They had little tanks you drove around in firing tennis balls, and the pen was surrounded by tennis ball cannons for spectators to fire at the tanks. They…

It is a little weird that so many are using pedo to attack him. Tom posted an Alan Dershowitz article that addresses what actually happened. An entire group of people accusing the President of being a pedophile based solely on a list not existing. It’s nuts.

Yup, barely a word about Gabbard releasing documents that make it clear the Sainted Barack Obama most certainly didn't do everything by the book, but sure, let's devote thousands and thousands of them to a dude that's been dead since 2019. Makes sense!

We're lucky to get that. CNN had not a word about it anywhere I could find on their home page this morning. Instead, it was all Epstein, because nothing says the latest news than ten articles about a dude that died almost 6 years ago.

Hahaha! Loved this line, 'The First Amendment is dying because two government propaganda outlets are being cut off from public funds--which, we have been told for years, barely make a dent in their budgets anyway. Could you make it make sense? I can't,' had to read it to my wife…

I thought inflation was out of control because of tariffs. Perhaps someone can explain to me how producer prices are falling in that case? advisorperspectives.com/dshort/updates…

On a scale of 1 to 10, these dials go well beyond 11, but it's happening as described in this great post from @EdMorrissey.
