“Trust me, I’m a doctor” is a humorous expression that suggests one’s opinion should be accepted without question, regardless of whether the person offering the opinion has actual medical expertise or experience.
The assumption is that physicians are knowledgeable, competent, and trustworthy. At one time, few would have questioned that assumption.

British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher once reprimanded President George H.W. Bush with: “This is no time to go wobbly.”
A variation of those words, for MAGA now, seem appropriate.
Thatcher’s words occurred in 1990 when Bush considered how to respond to Saddam Hussein’s invasion of Kuwait – whether to adopt a military response or not.
Today, there is an invasion of another sort, President Donald Trump, DOGE, and the MAGA coalition mounting a full-on attack on the international deep state, globalists, and New World Order, the latter promoted by that same President Bush.
Trump’s assault spans multiple fronts, both foreign and domestic, as well as economic and social issues.

Democrats and their corporate media allies have co-opted the popular narrative on various social issues, including sexism. Republicans provide little, if any, pushback for fear of what the low-rated Sunday talk shows or the Washington Post might say about them.
The social issue du jour is transgenderism. Democrats are the party of transgenderism, which represents only a small fraction of the population. However, if you watched prime-time comedy or drama television shows, you might believe that half of America is gender-confused.
Ironically, the Democrat party platform claims to support women. “We are committed to ensuring full equality for women. We will combat biases across economic, political, and social life that hold women and restrict their opportunities.”

Recently a gaggle of rogue U.S. District Court judges have issued numerous restraining orders and opinions aimed at curtailing, and in some cases overturning, the constitutional authority of President Trump as the head of the executive branch of government. There have been a series of court orders that rival the most egregious judicial decisions in American history, virtually all of which dramatically undermine constitutional separation of powers as well the sovereignty of this nation.

For the past four years, our national borders have been as porous as a sieve, allowing thousands of illegal aliens to cross into America every day. Few are screened for criminal backgrounds, useful skills, intentions toward America, or infectious diseases.
It’s sunny and unseasonably warm where I am today, but a week ago, it was snowy and unseasonably cold.

In name, Joe Biden is America’s 46th president. His “signature” is on official documents. He is photographed periodically, whether in the Oval Office, wandering in foreign lands or inappropriately sniffing or nibbling young children.

President-elect Donald Trump is taking a media break from being called a fascist or Nazi to the latest criticism of filling his cabinet positions with those not deemed to be “experts” by the self-proclaimed “expert class” of government.
