Citizen Writers Fighting Censorship by Helping Americans Understand Issues Affecting the Republic.
I’d say the biggest problem facing this country is typos. Typos are cropping up everywhere. In advertisements, in emails, and even within the very words your reading now. The main reason for this is your phone, which thinks it’s smarter than you.
The foreigner comes with the abominations of his country. The alien brings a determined resolve NOT to assimilate in culture’s dress, religion, mores and ethics. The inevitable consequence is that the “foreigner over” the citizenry, corrupts, disregards, and replaces the nation’s Rule of Law.
There’s stolen valor — the guy at the bar wearing medals he never earned, hoping nobody asks what unit he was in. Then there’s stolen charity — the polished executive in a tailored suit wearing patriotism like a lapel pin while cashing checks “for the troops.” One lies about serving. The other lies about serving those who served. Both are frauds. Only one gets invited to donor banquets.
Approximately 5,000 US movie theaters have closed in the last five years. Which is about 1,000 theater closures per year. More theaters are predicted to close. People just aren’t going to the movies anymore.
From Miller’s Creek Fire and Rescue: This morning (Monday, February 16, 2026) just before 10 AM MCFR received a request for assistants in reference to a cow that was down and could not get up.

So we keep building Towers of Babel—just with better branding, larger budgets, and more acronyms. Corporations, governments, military bureaucracies, international institutions—all convinced that if we just add one more layer, one more committee, one more compliance office, the tower will finally reach heaven.
That’s the part modern commentators miss when they wave away Balkan violence as “ancient hatreds.” These weren’t abstract grudges. They were lived systems. For centuries, the region was ruled by empires that never integrated their subjects into a shared civic identity. Catholic Croats looked west to Rome and Vienna. Orthodox Serbs looked east to Constantinople and Moscow. Muslim communities were tied to Ottoman structures. Religion wasn’t just belief; it was citizenship, law, and survival. Identity was not optional. It was inherited like debt.
The wars of the future—and increasingly, the wars of the present—will not announce themselves with bombs and bullets. They will arrive as confusion, contradiction, outrage, and exhaustion. You won’t know when they start. You won’t know who started them. You won’t even agree with your neighbors on whether they’re happening at all.
The modern moral argument surrounding immigration often leans heavily on Christian language while quietly discarding Christian wisdom. Appeals to compassion are constant; appeals to discernment are conspicuously absent. The result is a moral bait-and-switch: Christians are told that disagreement with expansive, consequence-free policies is equivalent to cruelty, fear, or hatred—despite Scripture never making such a claim.
That was 1967. Vietnam was raging. Cadets were not being groomed for cable news panels or Senate confirmation hearings. They were being prepared for jungles, rice paddies, ambushes, and body counts. Humor, especially gallows humor, wasn’t a problem to be solved—it was a survival mechanism. The name “Fighting Cocks” wasn’t vulgar to them; it was irreverent, aggressive, and just juvenile enough to signal that these were young men who understood they were not being trained for polite society. They were being trained for war.
He looked like Chris Farley. Even after 6 years of taking transgendering drugs, Jesse VanRootselaar, 18, had a 5 O’Clock shadow that powder did not completely cover. Police say he shot and killed 6 people and wounded 25 others
When I was a kid, church ladies ran the whole world. Elderly women were always telling me what to do, randomly appearing from the shadows and trying to feed me.
Moral anger is where the process begins. Unlike ordinary anger, which arises from frustration or injury, moral anger feels virtuous. It carries the intoxicating belief that one’s emotional response is proof of righteousness. When politics is framed as a moral emergency, anger stops being something to manage and becomes something to display. Neurologically, this matters. Moral anger activates threat responses and suppresses reflective thought, which is why it feels urgent, clarifying, and necessary—even when it is wildly oversimplified. Once people believe that being angry is the same as being good, reason no longer stands a chance.
In the wake of the roughly 300 layoffs at The Washington Post, there has been a lot of blame spread, both among the subscribers who quit over owner Jeff Bezos refusing to endorse Kamala Harris Emhoff in 2024, and the paper itself for it’s very liberal leanings. The Post managed to piss off both the …
Why does the mainstream press report that a woman committed a mass murder, when it was immediately known that the perpetrator was a man in a dress? The mainstream press has its reasons, and they go far beyond school shootings.
One wonders where does this ridiculosity stop-and will not be shocked-when the NFL wokes further up and lectures us on social issues when they recognize other nationalities in America with their own distinctive national anthems, and start calling the “Star Bangled Banner” the “White National Anthem”
America’s electric grid lives in a strange legal and moral purgatory. It is economically private, legally regulated, but strategically national. That contradiction is not a philosophical quirk—it is a national security liability hiding in plain sight, humming quietly behind the walls while we argue about fighter jets, aircraft carriers, and which shiny weapons system deserves another trillion dollars.
The real big news on Sunday was the election in Japan. PM Sanae Takaichi is working at the speed of Trump. Right after she took office, she called for a snap election, which was held 110 days into her term.
When Joe Biden tells Americans to “buy a shotgun” and fire warning blasts into the air to scare off intruders, that’s not folksy wisdom—it’s reckless, illegal advice in most jurisdictions. It’s the kind of thing that gets people arrested, injured, or killed. It reveals a worldview where firearms are props in a story, not tools that demand discipline, training, and accountability.
This latest round of revived nonsense over Jim Crow 2.0 is resurrected donkey dung, hysteria laden dogma from half a decade ago. You would think that even a smidgen-a modicum of respect-for their constituents would motivate new thoughts, ideas or tactics from democrat leaders
