Citizen Writers Fighting Censorship by Helping Americans Understand Issues Affecting the Republic.
With all the recent conflagrations: Russia-Ukraine, Gaza-Israel, worries of China-Taiwan; a recent discussion among some of my classmates posed the question of whether the current world situation is analogous to the run-up to WW1, WW2 or to a new Cold War.
The Democrat-media complex have buried these
This is the third post in the ongoing weekly feature that highlights news and commentary on important geopolitical, cultural, and economic issues that the Democrat-media complex buries because they expose the hypocrisies associated with the continuing Marxist-Democrat narrative. Everything is properly sourced and linked for follow-up reading, whether from legacy media, independent sources, or social media.
The California Energy Commission on Monday unanimously approved a new power to regulate spare tires using a 2003 law. The commission claims without independent verification that its Replacement Tire Efficiency Program will save Californians $1 billion a year on gasoline.
(In snobby British accent) they spend $58 billion a year on petro.
The commission could save Californians $8 billion a year by eliminating gasoline taxes but then the state would have to cut back on handouts to the homeless and the illegal aliens that give it extra congressmen and extra federal funding.

There is an old formulation, often attributed to the Roman philosopher Seneca, that luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity. It is a useful lens for examining the last eighteen months of the Trump administration, because it exposes the intellectual laziness — and, more often, the cynical political motive — behind the Democrat-media complex’s favored explanation for nearly every Trump-era success: that he simply got lucky.
The Trump administration delayed 50% tariffs on billions of dollars of Canadian products for three days, saying the two sides had reached a tentative agreement to resolve a broader trade dispute that had plunged relations to a fresh low. President Donald Trump announced the decision less than two hours before the tariffs were set to take effect. Bloomberg’s Derek Wallbank reports.
The collapse of a republic rarely begins with tanks in the streets or dramatic constitutional crises. More often, it begins with a far quieter question: Can we trust our elections? Once citizens lose confidence in the process that grants political authority, every institution built upon that authority begins to crack. Courts become suspect, laws become negotiable, and political opponents become enemies. A nation can survive bitter policy disagreements. It cannot survive indefinitely if its citizens no longer believe their government derives its authority from legitimate elections.
‘The Big Weekend Show’ co-hosts discuss the looming official end to the U.S.-Iran memorandum of understanding and the U.S. naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz.
Donald Trump is reconstructing his tariff wall after it was struck down by the Supreme Court.
Yesterday – on Sunday, because the Internet never rests? I received in my inbox an op-ed from Larry Kudlow.
For those of you who don’t know…:
“Lawrence Alan Kudlow is an American conservative broadcast news analyst, economist, columnist, journalist, political commentator, and radio personality. He is a financial news commentator for Fox Business and served as the director of the National Economic Council during the Trump administration from 2018 to 2021.”
I’ve met Larry. He is a very nice guy.
That said: Kudlow is a standard-issue Washington, DC center-right economy guy. He is exactly the type of Republican economist – that is killing the Republican Party.
Kudlow’s economic messaging – is the Republicans’ economic messaging. And it is more tone deaf than a year’s worth of nationwide karaoke contests.
Rep. Brandon Gill, R-Texas, weighs in on Wisconsin’s Democratic gubernatorial primary and the impact of mass migration on ‘The Will Cain Show.’
American Action Forum president Douglas Holtz-Eakin and Evenflow Macro managing partner Marc Sumerlin evaluate the Trump administration’s economic policy on ‘Kudlow.’
The U.S. economy surprisingly shed jobs in July, and it’s leading investors to think that an interest rate hike by the Federal Reserve in September is increasingly unlikely.
The first five years of the 2020s were tough, especially for the millions of people worldwide who died of a disease unnecessarily. A pandemic suddenly appeared from nowhere; no one wanted to say with any certainty.
During the Biden Regime this hypocrite showed NO INTEREST in the raging inflation, over 20%, created by the regime’s massive spending on worthless programs. Hoping to help the Democratic Socialists of America candidates get elected, he recently issued the following advice to them.
FormerPresident Biden, Senator Sanders and Mr. Reich are envious of Elon Musk’s success. They want you to think he became the richest man in the world because of government subsidies and infrastructure. I’m not going to pretend that Elon Musk is a rags to riches story, but he took a lot of risks and made some very difficult decisions to get to the point he is now.
The information warfare machine continues to spew out its drivel. Objective: Pit you against me, in whatever form that manifests. Man against God, man against women, man against countrymen, it matters not, so long as discord and chaos reign. If you read Don’s take on the news this week, you can skip the psyops and develop a jaundiced eye toward the psyop minions: the media.
For the past two years I have watched politicians, pundits, and people who clearly skipped statistics class weaponize the same recycled set of misleading numbers about data centers and water use. AOC brought a jar of cloudy well water to a congressional hearing and implied a nearby data center poisoned it. Spoiler: it was construction sediment. The same sediment you get when they dig up the road in front of your house. Same physics. Different agenda. But facts are inconvenient when you have a camera and a talking point.
Anthony Fauci appeared before the Senate, but there aren’t enough hours in the day to grill this bureaucrat on the contents of his rap sheet. When the full story is told, he will indeed be remembered as one of history’s worst villains.
I may be the only person left in the world to call the land Red China, but that does not make me wrong. Chairman Xi runs the joint and he is the president of the Chinese Communist Party—the largest political party in the world.
