Is Donald Trump the Most Honest Human Being God Ever Created?

Last updated on: April 13, 2022 at 10:38 pm By Kermit Zarley

In a political rally in North Carolina Saturday night, called “Save America,” former President Donald Trump exclaimed to the crowd, “I’m the most honest human being, perhaps, that God ever created.” At least he added the qualifier “perhaps.” I’d like to reply to Mr. Trump about that. You probably think I would make some statement arguing that he is not very honest, which fact checkers determined of his presidency. For instance, The Washington Post Fact Checker team claimed President Trump... Read more

The Russian Orthodox Church Supports Putin’s War in Ukraine

Last updated on: April 12, 2022 at 10:09 pm By Kermit Zarley

I’ve blogged three times about the Russian Orthodox Church’s support of Putin’s War in Ukraine and his vision for Russian World, which means Greater Russia or the restoration of the medieval Russian Empire, which included Ukraine and much of the rest of Eastern Europe (“Russian World . . . Part 1;” “Russian World . . . Part 2;” “Is Putin a ‘Defender of Christianity . . .“). It has a lot to do with the history of Christianity. What a... Read more

Scottie Scheffler Wins Masters to “Glorify God”

Last updated on: April 10, 2022 at 11:48 pm By Kermit Zarley

Scottie Scheffler looked like he was in total control all the way today at the Masters in Augusta, Georgia, until the very end, except that then it didn’t matter–almost. Scheffler shot a one-under par 71 today to win the Masters by three strokes over Rory McIlroy, who charged from way back to post by far the best score of the day, an eight-under par 64. (McIlroy needs to win the Masters to become one of only six golf pros who... Read more

Sheffler Leads Masters by Three

Last updated on: April 10, 2022 at 12:46 am By Kermit Zarley

Scottie Scheffler shot one-under par 71 today to reduce his lead from five to three strokes at the Masters in Augusta, Georgia, as he headed into tomorrow’s final round. It was windy and chilly weather conditions that kept anyone from shooting better than 71 except for a four-under par 68 posted by first round co-leader Cameron Smith to put him alone in second place. Thus, although Scheffler has a smaller lead on the field at the 54-hole mark than he... Read more

Scottie Scheffler Leads The Masters by Five

Last updated on: April 9, 2022 at 1:35 am By Kermit Zarley

Scottie Scheffler continued to be the hottest player on the PGA Tour this year by shooting a five-under par 67 today to take a five-stroke lead halfway through The Masters Tournament. His eight-under par 136 total ties a tournament record. Scottie is only twenty-five years old, and he attended the University of Texas. Four players are tied for second: defending champion Hideki Matsuyama of Japan, Charl Schwartzel of South Africa, Ireland’s Shane Lowry, and Sungjae Im of South Korea. All... Read more

Sungjae Im Leads The Masters

Last updated on: April 8, 2022 at 10:00 am By Kermit Zarley

South Korea’s steady and slow-swinging Sungjae Im shot a five-under par 67 yesterday to take a one-stroke lead over Cameron Smith at The Masters, the first of the four majors in professional golf throughout the year. Smith, one of the hottest players on the PGA Tour, had a bookends round, with a double bogie six on the first and last hole. All Masters patron eyes were on superstar Tiger Woods as he made his debut since surviving a near-fatal car... Read more

Tiger Woods Will Play in The Masters this Week

Last updated on: April 5, 2022 at 4:50 pm By Kermit Zarley

Tiger Woods has the golf world buzzing. Thirteen months after a near-fatal auto accident, Tiger Woods announced this morning, on site at Augusta National Golf Club, that he intends to play this week in The Masters Tournament. The only question is whether or not his right leg, which he almost had to have amputated due to the accident, can withstand walking this hilly terrain. I played in The Masters six times. And I can tell you that Augusta National is... Read more

I Get Ticked Off with the Media Saying “Mr. Putin”

Last updated on: April 4, 2022 at 7:39 pm By Kermit Zarley

Our U.S. media, such as The New York Times, which I like, keeps on calling Russia’s President Vladimir Putin “Mr. Putin” throughout this Putin War in Ukraine, and it just ticks me off! It is a refusal to recognize what calling a man “mister” means. Our U.S. President Joe Biden is right to call him a “butcher” and a “war criminal.” Scumbag, autocrat Putin belongs in a cage with predator wild animals because of his unprovoked war in Ukraine, a...

Recuperating Tiger Woods May Play The Masters

Last updated on: April 3, 2022 at 8:11 pm By Kermit Zarley

Five-time Masters winner Tiger Woods reportedly arrived at Augusta National today to further prepare to play in the Masters this week. He played a practice round there last Tuesday with his 11-year old son Charlie. Tiger said he will not make the decision on whether or not to compete this week until perhaps the very last moment, either Wednesday evening or even Thursday morning before his scheduled first round. Tiger Woods last won The Masters in 2019 in one of... Read more

Is this Trump Phone Gap Another “Smoking Gun” Cover-up?

Last updated on: April 2, 2022 at 9:20 pm By Kermit Zarley

Jill Wine-Banks was a prosecutor of the Watergate break-in scandal that caused U.S. President Richard Nixon to be forced to resign his presidency in disgrace on August 8, 1974. Ms. Wine-Banks is a legal analyst for NBC News. She appears often on television for interviews, sometimes comparing the Trump presidency to the Nixon-Watergate affair, and she is one of my favorite such commentators. Ms. Wine-Banks wrote an article that was published today by NBC News entitled, “I investigated Watergate. Trump’s... Read more
