The 4th Estate. Enough Said.
Not known for excellence, recent examples of incompetence are an embarrassment even by the media’s low standards.

K Street Dominates DC – So a K-Shaped Economy Dominates the US
Intelligence (AI) down our throats.
But three decades of Internet later? Big Gov still hasn’t passed a digital privacy law – limiting even a little Big Tech’s multi-trillion-dollar-per-annum data harvesting business model.
It’s all such a mystery.
America’s Quiet Military Draft Crisis: The Test That Won’t Lie
For a century, the Department of Defense (now DoW) has asked a brutally simple question: can you read, can you reason, can you do basic math, can you learn a job without turning equipment into modern art? This isn’t about genius. It’s about baseline competence—the kind that keeps helicopters in the sky and generators from becoming bonfires.
Left-wing violence is a ‘HUGE ISSUE’ in this country, TPUSA reporter says
TPUSA Frontlines’ Savanah Hernandez discusses a federal grand jury indicting suspects accused of assaulting her during an I.C.E. protest in Minneapolis on ‘The Ingraham Angle.’
Racism And The Laws Of Economics.
Democrats rely on “racism” like a crack addict needing a fix. The SPLC is just one source of perceived prejudice.
Full Stomachs, Empty Souls: Why Comfort Breeds Chaos
There’s a lie we like to tell ourselves somewhere between a full fridge and a stable Wi-Fi signal: once things get good enough, we’ll finally calm down. No more chaos. No more fighting. No more drama. Just peace, progress, and maybe a backyard smoker that never runs out of propane.
Yes, We Expect Government Officials To Look Professional
State Department bureaucrats are resisting a formal dress code. Why do we have to tell them to dress like we want or need them there?
From Freedom Convoy to Financial Control: The Rise of Instant Compliance
If you want a glimpse of how modern pressure can scale fast, look north to the winter of 2022 and the protests known as the Freedom Convoy. What began as a cross-country movement of truckers opposing cross-border vaccine requirements turned into a broader protest against mandates and restrictions. The response from the Canadian government under Justin Trudeau was decisive: emergency powers were invoked, certain financial accounts connected to the protests were frozen, and law enforcement moved to clear blockades. Supporters called it necessary to restore order; critics saw it as a warning shot—how quickly financial access and mobility can be restricted in a modern, digitally connected system.
The Real Virus: How Fear, Stress, and Certainty Changed Us
You didn’t need a history degree to recognize what was happening during the pandemic—you just needed to pay attention to how quickly ordinary people changed under pressure. Not all at once, not everywhere, but enough to notice a pattern. Stress, fear, and anxiety didn’t just shape policy; they reshaped behavior. And in many cases, they …
China: The New World Order They Intend—And the Life You’d Live Inside It
Under a Chinese-led global order, you wouldn’t necessarily feel “ruled” by China in a direct sense. You would feel aligned to it. Your country’s economy would be plugged into Chinese supply chains. Your infrastructure might be financed, built, or maintained through Chinese-linked systems. Your technology stack—networks, platforms, standards—would quietly converge with theirs because it’s cheaper, faster, and already widely adopted.
ICE: Ragbags with Badges… When Federal Authority Starts Looking Like a Yard Sale
There’s a fine line between tactical flexibility and looking like you lost a bet at a surplus store—and right now, ICE is stumbling all over it. Let’s get something straight: uniforms are not about fashion. They’re not about vanity. They are about authority, discipline, and instant recognition. A uniform says, without a word, this person represents the state, is accountable to it, and operates under a standard.
This Time We’re Smarter: The Most Dangerous Lie Every Generation Tells Itself
Every few generations, a fresh batch of true believers shows up convinced they’ve cracked the code that baffled every civilization before them. Not tweaked it. Not improved it. Solved it. Permanently. The pitch is always the same—just with better branding, cleaner fonts, and a heavy dose of moral certainty.
The Political Daycare: How Washington Manages Voters Like Toddlers
Politicians understand something about human nature that civics textbooks politely ignore: most voters do not follow policy, read legislation, or track long-term economic trends. They respond to a handful of very simple signals. Think of it as the national political dashboard. There are four blinking lights that determine whether the public is happy or furious.
America at 250: Public Servants Were the Idea. Tax Servants Is What We Got
Two and a half centuries ago, the American founders attempted something radical. They built a government specifically designed not to accumulate too much power. It was intentionally slow, limited, and divided against itself. The idea was simple: if ambition countered ambition, tyranny would have a hard time getting traction.
The Surveillance State and the Tyrannical Bird
The Founders built a system based on an assumption that now sounds almost quaint: government power would be limited by reality. Communication was slow. Information was scarce. The federal government had trouble collecting taxes, let alone tracking the daily movements of its citizens. If the government wanted to watch someone in 1790, it needed a horse, a spy, and probably a tavern receipt.
Is the new “Restore Britain” movement in the U.K. a blueprint for America?
We are squandering our country’s wealth to accommodate 10-15 million unskilled, unvetted, third-world intruders who were invited to surge America’s open borders by Joe Biden and his duplicitous Democrat underlings.
A “Five-Star General” Backs Down
Fortunately, Kentucky Girl’s tweet that the idiotic Police Chief of Motor City was going to fire an officer for notifying Immigration and Customs Enforcement turned our to be superseded by time; the officers in question will receive only thirty-day unpaid suspensions rather than losing their jobs, losing their jobs for obeying the law! Detroit police …
Built for Them, Ready for You: Why Detention Infrastructure Deserves More Skepticism
I trust my government the way I trust a chainsaw: useful, powerful, and capable of doing exactly what it’s designed to do—right up until someone slips, panics, or decides to use it for something it was never meant to cut. I support enforcing the law. I support borders. I support order. What I don’t support is pretending that massive, flexible, taxpayer-funded detention infrastructure will remain forever confined to the narrow purpose printed on today’s briefing slides. That’s not patriotism. That’s optimism with a short memory.
From Dionysus to the Edict: The Olympic Whiplash Nobody Planned
In 2024, the world tuned in to Paris and was treated to a lavish, high-budget revival of pagan imagery—complete with nods to Dionysus, the ancient god of intoxication, ecstasy, and losing yourself so completely that personal responsibility becomes someone else’s problem. It was art, we were told. It was symbolism. It was “inclusive.” It was definitely not accidental. And it certainly wasn’t Christian.
Election Integrity 101: Anatomy Of The Steal. Securing Elections Against Adjudication Cheating Part 2
So what good is voter identification going to do in a state like Colorado where under my theory nearly one million extra ballots are being mailed out that can then be used to form the basis for inside the tabulation machine shenanigans? I show ID as I vote in person, but the vast majority of Coloradans voted by mail.
