Defending Our Constitution
The oath military officers take in these United States, is different than that taken by officers in other countries. American officers swear to an ideal, not a tyrant.

The Erosion of Capitalism and Individual Liberty: Is the United States Becoming a Socialist Nation?
In recent years, the United States has witnessed growing erosion of capitalism and the fundamental liberties enshrined in the nation’s founding principles.
Reefer Madness Wasn’t a Movie—It Was a 100-Year Information Operation
There’s a comfortable lie Americans like to tell themselves: that we are too smart, too informed, too free to be manipulated at scale. That propaganda is something that happens in other countries, to other people, under other flags. Then you dig up a grainy black-and-white relic like Reefer Madness and realize—no, we ran one of the most effective information operations in modern history… on ourselves.
Three Knots, No Excuses: The Lost Skill That Still Saves Lives
There was a time—not that long ago—when a man who couldn’t tie a knot was considered about as useful as a screen door on a submarine. Today, we’ve got people carrying $1,200 smartphones, satellite GPS, and enough titanium gadgets clipped to their belt to look like a walking REI catalog… and they can’t tie a loop that won’t slip under load.
Aristotle
One of Plato’s students was Aristotle. After spending time as the tutor to Alexander the Great (before he was “the Great”) Aristotle formed his own school called the Lyceum.
Boss Newsom’s Empire of Waste, Fraud & Mismanagement
Those of us who live in this mismanaged, Democrat-ruled dung-show are keenly aware that Gov. “Hair Gel” has already relentlessly trashed the “Golden State.”
The Modern Plato
As I was responsible yesterday for your overconsumption of wine, perhaps I can offer amends today. Remember that in the discussion of the nature of a chair, Plato hypothesized that the form of a chair existed separately from the existence of any particular chair or of the craftsman who make them. That form did not depend on space or …
What is Good
In Plato’s “Republic” he sets about to explore what is the good life. In that analysis he discusses the very nature of goodness.
Yet another public school teacher accused of trying to become sexually involved with a student
There was no one more disappointed than I was when The Philadelphia Inquirer and then-Philadelphia District Attorney Seth Williams started going after the Archdiocese of Philadelphia for covering up sexual abuses by Catholic priests, or the horrible statistics when the John Jay Report, The Nature and Scope of Sexual Abuse of Minors by Catholic Priests …
Understanding College Athletics Today: How “Amateur” Athletes Are Becoming Millionaires
March Madness is done. Monday night, the Michigan Wolverines held off the UConn Huskies for the NCAA basketball title, and college free agency, otherwise known as “The Transfer Portal,” is now open and active.

You in a heap o’ trouble, girl!
Color me shocked that The Philadelphia Inquirer published the photo of an accused criminal. Technically, it isn’t a mugshot, so perhaps it’s allowed under a very narror interpretation of the newspaper’s stated mugshot policy. but I couldn’t find the newspaper’s Twitter — I refuse to call it 𝕏 — blurb, so I screen captured the …
The 10-to-4 Problem: What Rimfire Teaches That Centerfire Hides
At distances out to 100 yards, the differences between rimfire and centerfire aren’t subtle—they are foundational. A .22 LR match round leaves the muzzle at roughly 1050 feet per second, already flirting with the sound barrier and quickly settling into subsonic flight. Compare that to a typical centerfire round—say a .308—moving at nearly three times that speed, carrying significantly higher ballistic efficiency, and backed by a rigid, jacketed bullet designed to punch through the air rather than cooperate with it.
TSSA: $10 Billion for Airports, $0 for Kids: America’s Backward Security Priorities
There’s a quiet absurdity baked into modern America, and like most absurdities, we’ve lived with it so long we stopped questioning it. Every day, the federal government spends billions protecting people who fly occasionally—while leaving tens of millions of children sitting in classrooms with wildly inconsistent security. Let that sink in. We’ve normalized a system where you can’t bring a bottle of water through an airport without federal scrutiny, but your kid can walk into a school where security depends entirely on the zip code.
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 Weaponization of Children
Indoctrination of school children is nothing new. It started shortly after President Carter established the US Department of Education, slowly, unnoticed by most parents. President Obama accelerated the indoctrination to a delusional level by forcing transgender ideology and CRT on kids as young as age 5.
