Zohran Mamdani’s New York sweep proves Democratic Socialists are doing more than making noise. iPINIONS argues that they’re turning insurgent energy into institutional power, forcing establishment Democrats to confront a threat MAGA never posed in deep-blue districts: Democratic replacement from within.

Written by Anthony L. Hall

Sergey Brin and other tech billionaires made fortunes in blue California, then fled to red Florida to dodge a proposed wealth tax. iPINIONS calls it what it is: greedy tax-dodging by billionaires who resent paying back the state that helped make them rich. Their flight may look like financial prudence, but it reeks of self-owning… Read more.

Joe Kent may be a deeply flawed messenger. But when Bernie Sanders and Mark Warner both validate his core point, iPINIONS says the real scandal is no longer who said it. It’s how long Washington let Netanyahu drag America toward another disastrous war against Iran.

For all intents and purposes, Joe Biden dealt Bernie Sanders a knockout blow in their (now two-man) fight for the Democratic presidential nomination on Super Tuesday. I duly celebrated with the Ali-like headline, “Super Tuesday: A Biden Shocker,” March 4, 2020. More to the point, though, Bernie himself effectively threw in the towel one week… Read more.

From day one, the UK has schemed to gain all of the benefits but sustain none of the burdens of EU membership. Specifically, it has used “opt-outs” to remain a veritable island unto itself (e.g., exploiting the single market while denying the free movement of people, which member states are otherwise obligated to allow).

I would like nothing more than to see Bernie do to Hillary in 2016 what Barack did to her in 2008. (“Bernie Sanders: The Democrats’ Ron Paul…?” The iPINIONS Journal, July 2, 2015) In fact, I was feeling the Bern long before Millennials — who are now fueling Bernie Sanders’s campaign — even knew his name.

Written by Anthony L. Hall

It might seem a contradiction, if not an apostasy, that this pope considers the Jewish candidate a better messenger of Christian values than any of the Christian candidates running for president. But this should come as no surprise to anyone who knows anything about the basic tenets of Christianity; to say nothing of the historical symmetry Bernie represents: Jesus… Read more.
