Don’t be fooled: Andy Beshear is perfectly content with Medicaid fraud! The 2028 presidential hopeful isn't as obviously dumb as Tim Walz, but he's just as corrupt

Make no mistake about it: the Lexington Herald-Leader is wholly in the bag for Governor Andy Beshear, the Democrat who ordered churches closed and imposed every restriction of which he could think during the COVID-19 panicdemic — no, that’s not a typographical error, but exactly how I saw things — endorsed him in 2019 and again in 2023, after having seen his unconstitutional acts of 2020, and attempts to retain authority to continue them. So, when what my best friend used to call the Herald-Liberal publishes an article like this, you know some bad stuff has happened.

Andy Beshear set out to make drug treatment widely available in Kentucky. Fraud and abuse followed

We should never release murderers until their victims come back to life!

Tuesday morning’s lead editorial in The Philadelphia Inquirer is a complaint that President Trump is fighting a war on the truth by claiming that the credentialed media often publish #FakeNews, while at the same time publishing, as an ostensibly ‘straight news’ story that is actually a sob story about a convicted murderer who wants to get out of prison.

Yet more conspiracy theories about Mitch McConnell!

I worked at the University of Kentucky Hospital when I was in grad school, as a ward clerk. Fun enough job, but it was also a nowhere job. My wife worked there at the same time, as a nursing assistant, while she was in nursing school. If there’s anything I can tell you about hospitals, it’s that they have hundreds of employees: they are not all doctors and nurses, but pharmacy technicians, X-Ray techs, respiratory therapists, phlebotomists, housekeepers, cooks, dining room personnel, admissions employees, lab techs, and probably a dozen others which don’t come to mind at the moment.

And one other thing I can tell you about hospitals: all of those people gossip! If a doctor is f(ornicating) a nurse, it doesn’t stay a secret. If a ward clerk is having an affair with a nursing assistant, it isn’t long before knowledge of that spreads. If a pharmacy tech is homosexual but still closeted, it becomes common knowledge anyway. It’s not just consensual sex between single people; adultery happens!

So, it bugs me that there are so many conspiracy theorists out there pushing the notion that Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY) has died, but it’s being covered up. And while all of those links are from Twitter — I refuse to call it 𝕏 — our liberal friends on Bluesky are just as bad. Continue reading

Even The Philadelphia Inquirer has questions about defending Larry Krasner At what point does the newspaper give up on a criminal-loving and police-hating prosecutor?

We have frequently noted The Philadelphia Inquirer’s seemingly unqualified support for the city’s George Soros-sponsored$1.7 million in 2017 and $1.2 million in 2021 — criminal-loving, police-hating District Attorney, Larry Krasner, but even the Inky has been unable to avoid covering the news about Mr Krasner’s problems.

The newspaper said of Mr Krasner, in 2017:

Krasner says his defense work doesn’t make him soft on crime, but rather someone who can differentiate between redeemable defendants and hardened criminals.

Yet the District Attorney was upset that two police officers, in two separate cases, received lower sentences, even though it was conceded that they posed no future threats. Apparently Mr Krasner doesn’t see police officers as “redeemable defendants.”

Now there’s this:

DA’s office says two prosecutors who said Krasner told them to ‘protect the office’ in controversial case are ‘ill-informed’

Democrats playing stupid games

Adam Kinzinger’s Twitter biography says he is “Dad. Husband. Former GOP congressman. Voted to impeach Trump. Now fighting for our democracy. Lt. Col. @AirNatlGuard (ret). Founder @thecountryfirst.”

Mr Kinzinger is very adamant about enforcing our laws:

Kinzinger was one of the 10 Republicans who voted to impeach Trump for incitement of insurrection in his second impeachment. He also voted to create, and was subsequently appointed to serve on, the select committee to investigate the 2021 United States Capitol attack.

On 2022, during the January 6th panel, Kinzinger criticized 5 Republican lawmakers including Matt Gaetz and Scott Perry, saying: “The only reason I know to ask for a pardon is because you think you’ve committed a crime.”

On January 20, 2025, President Joe Biden announced a preemptive pardon for the January 6th Committee members including Kinzinger from potential future prosecution by the incoming Trump administration.

Mr Kinzinger accepted the pardon, which, by his own words, means he thinks he committed a crime. Continue reading

To paraphrase what Mary McCarthy once said about Lillian Hellman, “Every word (Larry Krasner says) is a lie, including ‘and’ and ‘the’.”

Our nation’s third oldest, continuously-published daily newspaper, the winner of twenty Pultizer Prizes and the newspaper of record for the entire metropolitan area, has been doing what it can do defend the George Soros-sponsored, criminal-loving and police-hating District Attorney, Larry Krasner, but things have been falling apart for Mr Krasner so badly that even the Inky has to report on what has been happening.

One of DA Larry Krasner’s top advisers once sent $100 to a man in prison for murder who’s now appealing his conviction. It’s under investigation.

Yes, political party is important! RINOs are far preferable to Democrats claiming to be 'moderate'.

In 2014, then Kentucky Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes, the daughter of Jerry Lundergan, a former Kentucky Democratic chairman and state representative, was the Democratic nominee facing Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY) in his re-election campaign. In the conservative Bluegrass State, Mrs Grimes was running a carefully tempered campaign, running as a moderate. In a race rated only “lean Republican,”[1]Carroll, James R. (August 3, 2013). “Mitch McConnell, Alison Lundergan Grimes race a ‘toss up,’ according to non-partisan observer“. The Courier-Journal. Footnote via … Continue reading Mr McConnell stomped her with 56.19% of the vote; so much for polling! About the only silver lining Mrs Grimes could see in that is that she did better against the then-Senate Minority Leader than the repugnant Amy McGrath Henderson did six years later.

Naturally, the Commonwealth’s two largest newspapers, The (Louisville) Courier-Journal and Lexington Herald-Leader endorsed Mrs Grimes, but what my best friend used to call the Herald-Liberal always endorses Democrats.

Humorously, Mrs Grimes was feted at a fundraiser by Harvey Wallbanger Weinstein, though that was before his scumbag reputation was widely known. Continue reading

Yes, we disagree with Democrats, but I never thought that they could be this stupid

It has been said that presidential candidates like to pick vice presidential running mates who will not overshadow them, and such is frequently done by picking running mates who are dumber than them. Yes, I know: I have used that opening line before, and yes, I used it in reference to Governor Tim Walz of Minnesota, and his pardon of Tou Lue Vang, a previously convicted child rapist, to try to save him from being deported to Laos. Mr Vang had serially raped a Hmong girl between her ages of ten and twelve years, something he admitted to detectives:

When a detective interviewed Mr. Vang, he acknowledged having had sexual contact with the girl and called it a “minor thing,” according to a criminal complaint. Mr. Vang blamed cultural norms in Thailand, according to the complaint.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio wasn’t going to put up with that s(tuff), revoked Mr Vang’s legal status, and he was quickly shipped back to Laos.

You would think that even a vice presidential candidate selected because he was dumber than Kamala Harris Emhoff would figure, at that point, OK, he’s gone, there’s nothing more we can do about it. Remember: Mr Vang was a convicted child rapist! Continue reading

In the wake of the Graham Platner scandals, we mustn’t forget the danger posed by James Talarico The fact that he's such a nice guy can't be used to cover his horrendous political beliefs

At the moment, 2026 Democratic senatorial nominee Graham Platner of Maine — my mother’s home state — has been sucking up all of the news coverage, following the accusations by a fellow Democratic woman that he broke into her house and raped her. The Democrats were OK with his Totenkopf death head tattoo, with his cheating on his wife, with toxic social media posts, and his blatant anti-Semitism, but finally, finally! the Democrats are abandoning him. Subsequent to that, The Washington Post published complaints by a former girlfriend that Mr Platner covertly removed his condom, which she had required for consent to sex with him, and continued to f(ornicate) with her, something which is a crime, albeit only a civil offense, in Maine.

They shouldn’t be surprised. They loved the charismatic bad boy who promotes socialism and hates Jews, because many of today’s Democrats promote socialism and hate Jews, but the trouble with the bad boys is that you never really know when the next bad story will drop.

But I’ll let other people write about Mr Platner and his troubles. I am more concerned about 2026 Democratic senatorial nominee James Talarico of Texas. We have previously noted Mr Talarico, a seminarian with the Presbyterian Church USA. Mr Talarico pretends to be tells us that he is a devout Christian, but he supports prenatal infanticide, using the story of the Annunciation (Luke 1:26-38) as a supposedly Christian argument for it, supports “trans children”, and The Advocate, a ‘magazine’ which supports homosexuality and transgenderism, has said the candidate “has positioned himself as a fierce queer ally, even using the Bible to advocate in favor of LGBTQ+ rights.” Continue reading
