Re: “Will Herschel Walker’s Fumble Cost Him the Game?”

This is not the first time the GOP has run weak candidates against Democrats who are incredibly weak. It’s happening in Pennsylvania, and it’s happened in past elections. Remember when Nevada’s Harry Reid was ready to be toppled and the GOP ran a dismally unelectable candidate against him? Place the blame where it belongs — on the Republican leadership that is unable to present strong candidates against weak Democrat opposition. Fetterman and Warnock are a joke, but Oz and Walker do not inspire confidence. —California

I recall debates over Clinton vs. Trump as they ran for president in 2016. We wondered if enough conservatives could overcome the stench of Trump’s human weaknesses of personal failings to come out and vote against Clinton. Trump had no political history; no political debts restricted him. But Clinton carried a Gordian knot of political ties; she was for sale. Trump won because Clinton smelled of The Swamp. Walker has no political history. He owes Trump thanks for his support. Else, his political dance card is clean. Walker should win because Warnock smells like a Swamp creature. Don’t forfeit your vote. Vote against Warnock even if you must wear a clothespin on your nose to vote for Walker. —Missouri

Re: “Bobulinski, the Bidens, and the Corrupt FBI”

The presidential election was decided by less than 25,000 votes, and there can be no dispute that the whole Hunter Biden laptop story was buried by the FBI in collusion with all the Democrats, the mainstream media, and social media in order to throw a presidential election. Then, of course, dozens of states changed their election laws (without the required constitutional approval of their state legislatures) to allow massive mail-in voting along with unsupervised drop boxes and illegal ballot harvesting. This is the biggest threat to the survival of our Republic. Unless there is a Republican tsunami in November, our once-great country will be lost forever. —Georgia

Re: “A New Supreme Court Term Means More Controversy”

“The end of constitutional protection for abortion” is a red herring. There was and is no constitutional protection for abortion. The period after the original Roe v. Wade decision was an aberration perpetrated by a Court that was truly making law rather than upholding it — an activist court. It was regarded then, and has been ever since, by real legal scholars as bad law. No real constitutional scholar has ever been able to show how there is a right to abortion in the Constitution. It is a product of the Wilsonian “living constitution” — that is to say, no real constitution at all, which makes the oath to “uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States” just a sort of hollow virtue-signaling. —Virginia

Re: “Supreme Court Legitimacy, Alito Style”

Poor Kagan. She just can’t stand to be on the losing side. Perhaps if she reached out to those she disagrees with, and examined the particulars of the conflict, she might be able to expand her horizons enough to come to an amicable meeting of the minds.
 If not, she should resign and return to more comfortable climes — such as Harvard Law. —Nevada

If Kagan is so concerned that SCOTUS is illegitimate, why doesn’t she resign? No one is forcing her to stay and have her delicate socialist sensibilities offended. She wanted the prestige and the power, but now has been shocked to find not every decision will go her way, so her typical leftist knee-jerk reaction is to point fingers and blame someone else. If these pathetically childish Dems weren’t serious about destroying the country, it would be laughable. —Pennsylvania

Re: “Biden Thanks Coastguardsman Before Firing Him”

Loesch disobeyed a lawful order. Yes, the military favors the strong-willed. But military units require cooperative members; not complying with orders gets people killed and battles lost. Conversely, leadership failed Loesch. It should have approved exemptions liberally, or at least delayed the “get a shot or get out” practice until it was vital to the mission. Of course, it’s easy for us to see that now. This same arrogance was how McNamara squandered the Vietnam War. The vax fiasco plus woke DEI/LGBTQ policies are compounding our recruiting and retention failures and gutting national defense. —Missouri

It is obvious to most observers that Joe Biden and many senior military officers are more interested in playing politics than ensuring the readiness of our combat forces. As Putin ominously threatens the West with tactical nuclear employment, our leaders prioritize woke social policies for our military services. Because both Biden and Harris have clearly demonstrated unfitness to discharge the duties of commander-in-chief, it is imperative that Republicans take control. Our nation’s future depends upon it! —Florida

Re: “Gavin Newsom Making California Gruesome”

Unbelievable stupidity on behalf of Newsom. If someone across state lines were to lure his children in order to mutilate their bodies, he would no doubt be livid. Dysphoric behavior should be addressed in the brain, not by carving up the body to conform to a defective self-image. —Washington

It is ironic that in many states a school nurse cannot give a child an aspirin and minors cannot get their ears pierced without parental consent, yet in some states a minor child can get an abortion without parental knowledge or consent … and now this gender abomination. The communist goal of destroying the family gets another weapon in its arsenal. —Pennsylvania

Re: “Ken Burns Revises Holocaust History”

I am so sick and tired of this revisionist history. If conservatives in all areas of this country don’t correct the direction this country is headed, then we are truly doomed to repeat the history that isn’t taught in schools or in news or anywhere else people go to learn, including social media. —Alaska

The perversion of history portrayed in Ken Burns’s documentary reminds me of three things: 1) Truth is the first casualty in war; 2) history is written by the winners; and 3) those who fail the lessons of history are destined to repeat it. Burns believes his version of history has won and he can sell it to the masses. He doesn’t care about destiny. Pollsters often assert the “well educated” favor the Left and the “ignorant” favor the Right. Apparently, “well educated” is a euphemism for feeling guilty after proper indoctrination, and “ignorant” is defined as refusing individual responsibility until after a rational analysis of verifiable facts. —Missouri
