People sometimes ask me: “Have you always been hated?” I’m not sure – I can’t vouch for my early years before I started writing. But, despite my unceasing efforts to appease critics, my articles have provoked torrents of rage and loathing for more than a third of a century. After a Washington Post columnist in […]
White House sez wear a mask, I wear a mask. But I don’t expect to get hired as a mask consultant. For the record: I’ve been wearing masks for several weeks. In my March 24 Daily Caller oped on Pandemic Security Theater, I wrote: “Before granting politicians any more powers, we should recognize how the […]

Millennials like Communism?!? I was vaccinated against it when I traveled to Romania, dodging secret agent hookers, surly clerks, and gullible guards with machine guns.
