The Courageous Conservative: A Journal That Will Send the Left Running Scared
By
Jack Kerwick
All right-wing conservatives across America and beyond will be glad to know that, at long last, the left’s worst nightmare has materialized. The editors of The Courageous Conservative are as unequivocal in affirming their determination to resist the totalitarian groupthink of Political Correctness as they are committed to serving as the voice for the People,…
The Vegas Mass Murderer: The Most Plausible Hypothesis of His Motivation
By
Jack Kerwick
As I write this, there is only a small handful of facts, or alleged facts, that all of the talking heads in Big Media seem to agree upon regarding “the largest mass shooting in American history.” First, 64 year-old Stephen Paddock, a white man and resident of Nevada, appears to have acted alone when he…
Charlottesville: Fact vs. Fiction
By
Jack Kerwick
As everyone who cares now knows, the “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville, Virginia that was held this past Saturday “turned violent.” It “turned violent” just as did so many of Donald Trump’s campaign rallies, the “free speech” rallies that have been held over the last seven or so months, and Trump’s inauguration. Of course,…
The Lie(s) and Tragedies of Obamacare
By
Jack Kerwick
Those Republicans who failed to keep their promise to repeal Obamacare, a promise that they repeatedly made over a span of some seven years, will get their comeuppance. Given their failure, as well as the obscene moral posturing in which Democrats are engaging at present, now is as good a time as any for Americans…
The Real John McCain
By
Jack Kerwick
As soon as John McCain had been diagnosed with brain cancer, Democrats and Republicans in Washington and the press spared no opportunity to lavish praise upon this lifelong government employee. McCain deserves none of the tributes that have been paid to him. McCain cheated on his first wife, the one who waited for him during…
Revisiting Reasons for Supporting Trump–or the “Trump Process”
By
Jack Kerwick
I have recently encountered folks, including friends, who, upon having vigorously supported Donald Trump’s presidential candidacy, now claim to have become disenchanted with him. Whether it is because President Trump lobbed cruise missiles into Syria; continues to permit Third World refugees into the United States; advocates on behalf of Obamacare Lite; still hasn’t so much…
Why the Left will Continue to Win
By
Jack Kerwick
That the Democrat Party holds fewer political offices now than at any time since the 1920s does not mean that the left is losing. Conversely, just because Republicans have been winning elections does not mean that the right is winning. As I show in my book, Misguided Guardians: The Conservative Case Against Neoconservatism, the GOP…
Misunderstandings of “Fake News” III: How Fake Journalists made themselves “the Enemy of the People”
By
Jack Kerwick
In previous articles, I wrote about the difference between Fake News and fake journalism. The two, I showed, are inseparable in practice. However, they are indeed separate concepts. Fake News is the final product, the end or outcome produced by fake journalists. The latter derive their identity as fake journalists from the considerations that motivate…
Misunderstandings of “Fake News” II: Fake News vs Fake Journalists
By
Jack Kerwick
There is a difference between Fake News, on the one hand, and fake journalists, on the other. Fake New refers to the end product. What make a fake journalist a fake journalist are the motives that drive the latter. Ultimately, in practice, the two are inseparable. Conceptually, however, the ideas of “Fake News” and “fake…
Misunderstandings of “Fake News”: The Origins and Meaning of “Fake News”
By
Jack Kerwick
Last week, CNN thrust itself into what could very well be the biggest scandal in the history of the American media. And it couldn’t have happened to a more deserving group of people. However, that the fake journalists at CNN are as deserving as anyone to be called out for what they are doesn’t mean…
