The Best Conservative Columnists of 2022
It is once against time to recognize the best conservative columnists of 2022. I’ve been doing these lists since 2009 and honestly, they get tougher to do every year because of columnists moving behind subscription walls and the way that the party has siloed into different camps in recent years. However, at the end of the day, this is all about giving some credit, attention, and applause to conservatives doing excellent work. If there are any of these people that you haven’t heard of, make sure to check out their work. It will be worth your time.

Wow, this list is WAY out of touch with the grass roots. Rank & file conservatives do not read Goldberg, Williamson, Coulter, or Noonan anymore. And to not include Julie Kelly is a crime.
Nice list soiled by Jonah Goldberg.
