Michigan’s Trojan Horse: The Brilliant Surprise Attack That Captured Fort Michilimackinac

by

In 1763, Fort Michilimackinac fell without an artillery barrage, a breached wall, or a prolonged siege. The Ojibwe used something far more effective: deception, surprise, a lacrosse game—and a British commander who ignored warnings that an attack was coming. What followed was one of the most audacious actions in Michigan history, preserved for us through the eyewitness account of a fur trader who somehow survived it.

The Worms………

by

THE WORMS

Without eyes to see or ears to hear
The worms have only hunger.
They have a single purpose
To gorge themselves on plunder.

You think they care if they destroy
What others gave their lives to build?
Or that they respect the flesh they eat?…
Now – watch them take their fill.

Without logic, without love,
The worms will simply eat.
When all is fallen and consumed
Their work is now complete.

All worms are not beneath the soil.
In our midst, they will despoil
What is good and what is fine,
What is true, what is divine.

Don’t seek to reason with the worms,
It is a futile task
– Just decide if you will fight –
Or be consumed at last!

The WHO Does Red China’s Bidding: How the CCP corrupted the WHO

by

The World Health Organization serves as the directing and coordinating authority on international health work. According to its organizing principles, it connects 194 member states, partners, and people to promote health, keep the world safe, and serve the vulnerable populations. U.S. voluntary funding given to the WHO has dwarfed China’s contributions, yet China exercises out-sized influence on the WHO.

FALSELY ACCUSED: Woman fights Flock camera catch with OWN evidence

by

A Denver-area woman describes being falsely accused of theft after police allegedly relied on Flock camera information, only for her own evidence to result in the summons being voided. The case is fueling debate over a surveillance network the company says now includes more than 120,000 cameras nationwide.

If Colonel Townsend Whelen Had an iPhone

by

Colonel Townsend Whelen spent a lifetime proving that only accurate rifles are interesting. But imagine handing him an iPhone and asking ChatGPT for a 6.5 Creedmoor load. After staring at it for thirty seconds, he’d probably ask, “What the hell is Wi-Fi?” Then he’d type, “Best accuracy load. 140 Berger. H4350. Go.” After 41 years behind a rifle, I did exactly that—and one of the best first-round load developments of my career popped out. Luck? Maybe. Or maybe AI just read a hundred years of load manuals, match reports, and internet arguments in about half a second. Either way, it didn’t pull the trigger. It just saved a little barrel life. And these days, that’s worth its weight in powder.

The Nine-Month IV Drip Nobody Told You About — And Why Lindsay Clancy Needs Your Prayers

by

Today you get the other two things I am, the medic and the science teacher, and I need you to set the pitchfork down for about ten minutes. Because I am going to walk you through some neuroendocrinology first, and only then tell you what it has to do with three dead children in Duxbury, Massachusetts.

Hillbilly Elegance: Barbara Walters did Dolly Parton a big favor that people in the 21st century just don’t understand

by

Dolly Parton’s death brought out the best in people. The Royal Family posted a video of a royal band of some sort playing 9 to 5 in tribute. The tweet said, “Remembering the late, great Dolly, who brought joy, comfort and inspiration to so many—including the millions of children given free books through her Imagination Library. We will always ❤️ you.”

Arab Slaves: The History Textbook Forgot This Chapter

by

Most Americans learned about the Atlantic slave trade—and rightly so—but human slavery has a much longer, darker, and considerably less convenient history. Across centuries, African captives were transported through vast Middle Eastern and Islamic slave networks, and most males were even castrated and sold as eunuchs. It’s a chapter that complicates the tidy heroes-and-villains version of history. Slavery wasn’t the invention of one race, religion, or civilization. It was a human disease—and if we’re going to learn from history, we should have the courage to teach the whole ugly story.

Trump signs executive order to change the name of Lake Ontario to ‘Lake America’

by

It’s an escalation of the president’s trade war with Canada amid the war in Iran, and growing concerns over rising prices in the U.S.

California’s Stop Nick Shirley Act Aims to Outlaw Fraud Investigations by the Press

by
"Stop Nick Shirley Act" Will Protect Foreign Nationals, NGOs Who Steal Tax Money

I don’t know many journalists who have been so effective at uncovering government fraud that lawmakers in one state are going to extraordinary lengths to pass a new law that would essentially criminalize investigative journalism and make it illegal to investigate fraud there. Then there’s Nick Shirley
