Op-Eds
Op-Eds by our Officers and Fellows do not necessarily represent the views or focus issues of the CJV.
The Impeachment that Threatens America
One might have imagined that, with so much of world history behind us, we would have learned better than to search for an excuse to charge or convict another person. You would think that this was obvious. Put “charging political adversaries with imagined crimes” on a Jeopardy! board, and the question is: “What were the Stalin Show Trials?”
AOC: All One Candidate
Perhaps the most harmful political person in the United States today is Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, a product of our own neighborhood right here in Queens.
The Pelosi Stillborn Impeachment
In the end, the only people who abused power during the Silly Season of Ukraine were Adam Schiff and Nancy Pelosi. And once the House passed the Stillborn Impeachment, it devolved on Pelosi to submit it to the Senate for a quick and merciful funeral and interment. But she would not do it, obstructing the unilateral will of the Democrat House and obstructing the work of the Senate.
What If America Were to Take Out Iran’s Main Oil Refineries as the Mullahs Run Out of Moolah?
I am unalterably opposed to sending American servicemen and women into another intractable foreign adventure. I oppose American adventurism and regime change from outside. If people in an oppressed country are not prepared to overthrow their Pharaohs, we Americans have no business doing it for them.
What Obama Judges? Oh, THOSE Obama Judges! (Part Two)
How the Obama–Clinton judges have allowed themselves to be parties to the corruption and perversion of America’s justice system.
To Stop Hateful Attacks On Jews, Oppose The Ideology Behind Them
The march was not merely useless, but from my perspective it was actually counterproductive; it provided cover for those spreading bigotry to proclaim, “look, we love Jews!”
The Trump Doctrine: On Zig-Zagging, Keeping Hands Off Our People, and America First
A key criticism has been that the president has no discernible foreign policy, that he just has no idea what he is doing, why, or what the consequences will be. For three years we have heard from the same crevices the same exact criticism of his approach to the economy. His approach to energy expansion. His approach to trade with China. His approach to NATO. His approach to illegal immigration.
The Racist Race to Erase Race From the Democrat Race
The big stage is turning into a Democrat celebration of the supremacy of Whites, if not White supremacism. They are racing to erase race from the Democrat presidential race.
Soleimani, Abu Bakr, the Dem Washington Gnats, and the Corrupt Journalist Corps Ring in the Year
Republican conservatives greeted the Bin Laden wack with joy, even as Democrats were delirious with glee. No Dem complained that Congress had not declared war or that the President had overstepped his Constitutional authority. He is the commander-in-chief, period. Bin Laden was evil and needed to be wacked.
Open season
Politicians have been too reticent to expose the identity of almost all the recent perpetrators in New York and New Jersey: they have been black Americans. And that leaves politicians tongue-tied.
