  • Great program

    One critique: the judge and his guests often frame our foreign policy failures as the product of incompetence or stupidity. I think that gives the decision-makers too much credit.

    Many of these choices look irrational only if you assume the goal is protecting America’s interests. If the goal however is individual power, profit, self-preservation, etc—they start to make a lot more sense.

  • Lefty Soldier

    I have heard the judge speak on TV, and thought highly of his professional opinion. Now that he has his own mic, he is clearly biased, reporting favorably to one side, while completely ignoring the accomplishments of the other. He’s just another huge cheerleader for his Lefty cult.

    I want honest opinion and criticism, regardless of what side any person or issue is on, but that’s not what you’re going to get from Judge Nap.

    Unfortunately, he was bitten very hard, and now suffers from severe TDS... more

  • Russia

    All the analysts say that Russia is overwhelmingly winning the war. This is obviously not true as their Army can’t get out of their own back yard. Why isn’t Napolitano calling them on that. Every week for months they have said Ukraine is finished and the stalemate goes on. These experts who are blindly anti Trump look ignore since their predictions about how he would deal with Maduro were 100% wrong. Delano’s
