    Opinion: Hey, Germany. It's legitimate to limit immigration. - The Sumter Item (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Just weeks after far-left candidates have won surprising victories in Democratic primaries in Pennsylvania, Florida, Michigan, Colorado and New York City for the Senate and House in the United States, the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party has won a widely predicted victory in the election last Sunday for the legislature of Sachsen-Anhalt, one of Germany's 16 federal states. Most Democratic officeholders have rallied around their far-left nominees even as the Democratic Socialists of America na

    Column: Democrats try to brush aside 'Woke 1' - The Sumter Item (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    "'Woke 1' was crazy." So said Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) on ABC News' "This Week" earlier this month. She said she was quoting New York City Councilman Chi Osse, whom The New York Times characterizes as "far left." This was where Ocasio-Cortez seemed to be located on the ideological spectrum after her surprise defeat of House Democratic leadership member Joseph Crowley in the 2018 Democratic primary. At that time, she was a 28-year-old former waitress and organizer for Sen. Bernie Sa

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    It's worth poking around the entrails of the returns for the agonizingly close and, given the pre-primary polls, surprising results of recent Democratic primaries in the key swing Midwestern states of Michigan and Wisconsin, with a side look at Minnesota.

    Opinion: America's peak socialism - abandoned a century ago - The Sumter Item (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The emergence of the Democratic Socialists of America and their political victories, from New York City across the fruited plains of Michigan and Wisconsin, all the way to Colorado, strikes many as a new thing in U.S. politics. Previous movements have, in fact, increased, sometimes significantly, the size and scope of government. But it has been their opponents who have accused them of "creeping socialism," while advocates have avoided the S-word. Some major policies of Franklin Roosevelt's New

    Opinion: Ukrainian war remakes war - The Sumter Item (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Wars remake war. New weaponry, new tactics, new strategy time and again produce results no one predicted or thought possible. Revolutionary France's levee en masse and Napoleon's bold attacks prevailed over staid 18th-century siege warfare and subdued all Europe. The aggressive assaults produced horrendous casualties but were unable to move the Western Front trenches more than a few meters in World War I. Less than 20 years later, the European theater in World War II was the scene of blitzkrieg
