Why Russia's Military Incompetence Doesn't Matter - The Point has played out this subject back and forth over the week and the media and various experts seem intent on treating Russian military incompetence as if it's either...1. A secret plan and four-dimensional chess. 2. Evidence that Russia will lose. It is most likely neither............9 comments

Ex-Illinois Dem Party Boss Indicted on Bribery Charges - What can you do folks, it's Chicago. I blogged about this back in 2020. Michael Madigan was the longest-serving legislative leader in American history and chaired the Illinois Democrat Party. But then the investigation got closer and closer to Mike............ 1 comment

It's Okay Not To Take a Side in Someone's Else War - It's okay not to take a side in someone else's war.  It's okay not to repeat war propaganda from either side, whether it's the insane claims that the invasion of Ukraine is another Holocaust or that we're about to enter WWIII, Ukrainian biolabs or thousands of destroyed Russian tanks. It's okay to think for yourself.  It's okay to be outraged or disgusted by the sight of a country being invaded and civilians being bombed without believing that we need to personally go to war............ 5 comments

 Don't Just "Fund the Police", Fund the Prisons - Biden, trying to run away from his party's pro-crime record, embraced "Fund the Police" at the State of the Union. Funding the police is fine (especially if you stop trying to lock them up for doing their jobs) but it doesn't do any good if the criminals don't get locked up. Here's a disgusting case in point out of New York City...........1 comment 

After Rejecting Israeli-Greek Pipeline to Europe, Biden Comes Calling - Via the American Energy Alliance..........I remember that like it was a month ago. Now after doing everything possible to protect Russia's Nord Stream 2, including literally lobbying Congress against NS2 sanctions, Biden needs more options............6 comments

Fact Check: Would France Resist If Russia Invaded Paris? - Since pointless fact checks over largely unimportant things are all the rage, we might as well join the fun...........Let's see. The Franco-Prussian war ended with the French fighting among themselves instead of securing Paris, with the whole thing ending in a German victory and another radical leftist gang running Paris.  That was positively heroic compared to the French surrendering, mostly accepting Vichy control, and acting as Nazi collaborators. The so-called French Resistance was not especially French. And certainly not representative of French elites in Paris............... 2 comments

‘Afghan Adjustment Act’ Would Legalize 36,000 Unvetted Afghans - Don’t ask questions, just give them their citizenship. Biden’s evacuation brought tens of thousands of Afghans to America. The majority of them were not interpreters, had no visas, and no basis for entering the country. Despite that, they were rapidly brought here with virtually no vetting, dropped off at military bases, and then put through the resettlement process across the United States. There’s no one problem...............10 comments

Flashback to When Russia Armed and Provided Intel to Saddam Ahead of U.S. Invasion - One way to think of the initial U.S. role in Afghanistan was that it was payback to Russia for Vietnam by a generation of officers that had seen it close up. And they wanted to give the Russians their own Vietnam. Similarly, another way to think of Ukraine is payback to Russia for Iraq from a generation of officers that saw that one up close.   In the years after the Gulf War, Saddam grew closer than ever to Russia. And the Russians provided intel and weapons right up to the war........They also provided weapons that were used against us.......While most Americans have forgotten, there are people in the military with a longer memory..........1 comment

GOP Turnout in Texas Primaries Nearly Double Dem Turnout - 2022 and 2024 may very well depend on whether Dems can stop the bleeding in the suburbs and among Latinos. So far there's no sign of that.  The culture war may be big business, but it's backfiring badly among Latinos........... 0 comments
