Trump warns Democrats

by

You can investigate us, we can prosecute you

During the election campaign, Communist Democrats repeatedly threatened to launch expensive investigations of President Trump, his family, his Cabinet members, his supporters and any corporation official whoever said something nice about Trump.

The party is full-blown communist. It will indeed purge the military of any qualified general or admiral with wild claims of war crimes. The party is Jafar coveting Aladdin’s lamp. The story ends well as I recall, with Jafar using his last wish to become a genie—and instantly winds up trapped in Aladdin’s lamp.

Oh how I want that happy ending.

Ebola 2026: The Next Pandemic Is Knocking. Did We Learn Anything?

by

Ebola is back, and humanity may be preparing to repeat its greatest pandemic mistakes. With thousands reportedly dead, no proven vaccine for this strain, and governments still dodging accountability for COVID-era failures, the question isn’t whether another pandemic could happen. It’s whether we’ve learned anything—or whether fear, censorship, and bureaucratic incompetence will once again prove more contagious than the virus itself.

Four A.M. in Athens: A Long Road to Athens

by

Athens. I am taking a taxi from my apartment at 3 a.m. The taxi driver is waiting by the curb, petting a stray cat.

He is smoking a cigarette and he wants to know why I am up “so damned early.” My driver played college basketball in the US back when he still had hair. He enjoys cussing in English. “Is just more fun.”

We get in the cab. Athens nightlife is still going strong.

Delayed Accountability in the American Political Class is Itself Criminal, Part 2

by

The dire consequences of deferred justice

Failing to prosecute politically connected wrongdoers promptly, and with the same severity applied to ordinary citizens, emboldens further and more brazen misconduct by the individuals who escape consequence. Furthermore, non-enforcement itself functions as an incentive structure to others contemplating corrupt actions. And a justice system that appears, case after case, to apply one set of rules to the politically connected and another to everyone else breeds cynicism and corrodes public trust in the institutions responsible for enforcing the law.

Poland’s Constitutional Circus: When Everybody Claims to Be Saving Democracy

by

Poland is tearing itself apart, and this time neither Germany nor Russia is responsible. Conservatives and liberals are battling over constitutional authority, judicial control, and who gets to claim they’re saving democracy. Meanwhile, NATO’s eastern flank sits exposed to political dysfunction, Washington wants permanent military bases, and Moscow watches the circus with popcorn. Poland isn’t facing civil war—yet—but history reminds us that republics become vulnerable when political factions decide defeating their opponents matters more than preserving the institutions they swore to defend.

The Road To Forty-Eight

by

College football’s new 24-team playoff isn’t about crowning a champion, it’s about proving that in modern sports, there is no amount of money administrators won’t chase and no tradition they won’t sacrifice to get it. I know,

There are times when I wonder if we are as evolved as we claim to be.

by

My good friend Robert Stacy McCain enjoyed a significant amount of amusement over the case of Kaitlyn Hunt, the then 18-year-old girl who engaged in a sexual relationship with a then 14-year-old girl in the Sunshine State, where the age of consent is 16. Homosexual activists tried to “Free Kate” because it was true luv, …

From the Cold War Frontlines to the Kansas Heartland: The New Homegrown Socialist/Communist Threat

In the 1960s, wearing the uniform of the United States Army, my mission was unambiguous: our job was to stand against and deter communist expansion. We understood the stakes of the Cold War,

Massie versus reality

by

His articles of impeachment say more about him than his target, Pete Hegseth.

Republicans in Kentucky threw Thomas Massie out on his ear in this year’s primary. In 14 years in Congress, Massie accomplished nothing but praise from the press for opposing his party’s last three presidential nominees: Donald Trump, Donald Trump and Donald Trump.

Massie says America First without first giving America one darned thing.

Humanity 1.0: Stone Age Brains Running 21st-Century Technology

by

Humanity has split the atom, walked on the Moon, and created artificial intelligence, yet we’re still running 21st-century technology on Stone Age instincts. Every generation inherits the same biological hardware but must relearn the lessons of history. Our machines keep getting smarter while human nature remains stubbornly unchanged. We’ve mastered extraordinary technology without necessarily developing the wisdom to control it. The greatest threat to civilization may not be artificial intelligence becoming too powerful, but human intelligence remaining too foolish.

Another Seemingly Surprising Election Result—To Politicians

by

Over some four decades or more traveling and living around the world it never occurred to me that anyone in their right mind would truly believe that the grass was greener on the other side of the proverbial fence. That Europeans–for instance—have a better lifestyle in any measurable category one imagines in comparison to the freedoms and lifestyles one can choose in America.
