Citizen Writers Fighting Censorship by Helping Americans Understand Issues Affecting the Republic.

On Wednesday, The Philadelphia Inquirer published a decent article on a wound care clinic in Kensington, the center of the drug trade in the City of Brotherly Love, and how they’ve been struggling with injuries caused by “tranq,” the veterinary tranquilizer xylazine, which was never approved for use in humans, which dealers have been using …
Jim Friedlich is Chief Executive Officer and executive director of the Leftist, oops, sorry, Lenfest Institute for Journalism, the nonprofit organization that owns what I have sometimes called The Philadelphia Enquirer¹. In Wednesday morning’s newspaper, he is “Giving thanks — and offering up a prayer — for America’s free press: On this, more than any …
We noted, on Saturday, that the proposed peace plan is “a horrible deal for Ukraine, no doubt about that. But it does one thing: it stops the killing! It would be very dispassionate to suggest that Ukraine should keep on fighting, and its people keep on dying, if there were any reasonable prospect that they …
If there is one thing that The Philadelphia Inquirer’s ‘Worldview’ columnist has been adamant on is arming Ukraine to fight the evil Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin and Russia. But even she couldn’t hide the fact that after 3½ years of war, Ukraine is starting to lose. As Ukraine falters, Trump tries to hand the country to …
Our good friends on the left are doing everything that they can to express their disgust, and try to score political points with far-left voters, over the eight Senate Democrats who agreed to end the filibuster and allow the continuing resolution to reopen the government to be passed. Governor Josh Shapiro (D-PA) is trying to …
Another victory for the George Soros-sponsored, criminal-loving and police-hating Philadelphia District Attorney, Larry Krasner! Mr Krasner just loves to put Philadelphia Police Officers in jail, and to release bad guys who are in prison. Homicide detective Philip Nordo was clearly a bad cop, as The Philadelphia Inquirer reported: A former Philadelphia homicide detective was arrested …
these are Hamas fanatics, who can, and will, and already have tried to continue the war. From The Jerusalem Post:
My good friend and occasional blog pinch hitter William Teach noted that Luke Broadwater of The New York Times was apoplectic over the hardball that President Donald Trump played during the Government shutdown: The government shutdown is already the longest in American history. But it’s also perhaps the most punishing, in part because President Trump …
The leadership of Hamas kept the futile, and worse than futile, war they started going for two long years, when they had clearly lost in the first few months. They played their only point of leverage, the hostages, for two years, until only twenty were left alive, and multiple thousands of the ‘Palestinians’ they …
It seems that the electric vehicle mandates of the Biden Administration were not greeted with approval by the public, and the public are not choosing to buy the silly things without Federal government bribery. From The Wall Street Journal: Ford Considers Scrapping Electric Version of F-150 Truck Once hyped as a ‘smartphone that can tow,’ …
Lex McMenamin (they/them) describes himself¹ in his Bluesky biography as: permanent Philadelphian in NYC, opinions mine WAS politics @teenvogue.com member @transjournalists.org @leximcmenamin elsewhere linktr.ee/leximcmenamin As you can see, Mr McMenamin, who puts plural pronouns in his signature line on Bluesky, is going to be a flaming liberal, as the list of his online articles shows. …
In the aftermath of two illegal immigrants causing fatal accidents while driving tractor-trailers, there are a lot of stories, mostly in social media, about increased federal commercial driving regulation enforcement, particularly along Interstate 40 through Oklahoma. Drivers are being tested for the ability to read English, which is mandatory for holders of commercial driver’s licenses …
Our good friends on the left spent much of the Biden Administration years telling us what Senator Dick Durbin did in a tweet pictured to the right, telling us that no one is above the law. Letitia James said the same thing, many times, in her witch hunt against then-former President Trump, yet, today, she’s …
Judging from my Twitter — I refuse to call it 𝕏 — feed, the talking points memo has gone out: the left must attack Riley Gaines Barker, the former University of Kentucky swimmer who is now a vocal advocate for protecting women’s sports from men males who think they’re somehow women. It’s no surprise to …
Remember the kerfuffle over former Vice President Kamala Harris Emhoff’s admission that she considered then-Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg as her running mate, but decided against it because he is openly homosexual? Mr Buttigieg admitted to being “surprised” to read that. The divergence comes as their party is grappling with its approach to diversity, as …
You know, this really pisses me off. No, not Vice President J D Vance visiting the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, a place where I have been and found amazing and inspiring, but the utterly asinine comments of (supposedly) good Americans, some of whom even profess to be Christians. I have seen several …
We noted, on September 26th, that six schools had forfeited games against the Jurupa Valley High School’s girls’ varsity volleyball team because a mentally ill male, A B Hernandez, plays on the girls’ team. Fox News has just reported how much the real girls are sacrificing: California girls’ volleyball team with trans player sees 10th …
My good friend Robert Stacy McCain — The Patriarch Tree on Twitter since his old rsmccain account got trashed by the pre-Elon Musk regime — wrote about, in less than flattering terms about a ‘sex worker’ styling herself “Aella”. It seems that she had a birthday gang bang, sexually taking on 37 men on her …
In 1986, Robert Cortez “Bobby” Scott, then a state Senator in Virginia, ran for election to the Commonwealth’s First Congressional District seat against incumbent Representative Herb Bateman (R-VA), losing in a landslide, 56% to 44%. In the redistricting which followed the 1990 Census, the state legislature, at the direction of the federal Department of Justice, …
I saw this tweet earlier, but decided to wait to write about it, waiting for The Philadelphia Inquirer, for which I am paying to subscribe, to have more. Sadly, the Inky didn’t have all that much more: Police are investigating the death of a Philadelphia firefighter as homicide The 56-year-old man was found dead in …
