Citizen Writers Fighting Censorship by Helping Americans Understand Issues Affecting the Republic.
February 28, 2026 is another Red Letter Day in history. It’s so amazing to be alive and witness it like a spectator sport from the safety of America. The U.S. and Israeli attack on Iran is an international reset.
The modern battlefield isn’t just military anymore. It’s what the national security crowd calls DIME — Diplomacy, Intelligence, Military, and Economy — and right now the United States is fighting on all four fronts at the same time, in multiple regions, with fewer resources than it had even ten years ago. That’s not a conspiracy theory. That’s just what happens when a superpower tries to hold together a global order that is starting to come apart.
Carrie Prejean Boller is a very attractive young lady with a very ugly soul. She claims to be a Roman Catholic, but I have to ask: is her Bible just one of those small New Testaments that the Gideons leave in hotel nightstands? Does she cover her ears during the first reading on Sunday Mass, …
There is a quiet anxiety baked into much of modern American Christianity: if you don’t support Israel—always, loudly, and without qualification—God might notice. Entire churches treat Israeli foreign policy as a third sacrament. Question a settlement policy or a military response and someone will reach for Genesis 12 like it’s a theological panic button. This fear wears the costume of faith, but it isn’t biblical. It’s superstition with a study Bible.
Let’s dispense with the polite fiction. The United States has 50 states on paper and one premium subscription state overseas that gets all the benefits with none of the awkward obligations like paying federal taxes or pretending to listen to Washington. Welcome to Israel, America’s unofficial 51st state — the only one close enough to lecture Congress but far enough away that we pretend it’s “just an ally.”
For the past 30 years, the conversation about globalism has taken hold, often forcing it into the mainstream narrative. It has been sold as an answer to the world’s problems. But what is the reality?
500 years ago—514 to be exact—Pedro Mascarenhas, a Portuguese explorer looking for a better route to India and China, encountered a long and narrow uninhabited island in the Indian Ocean. He named it Dom Garcia in honor of the man who financed the exploration. That was in 1512. The island was re-discovered in 1544 by …
In the 1930’s the Soviet Communists starved to death over four million Ukrainians in a genocide. Given this history it is no surprise that the Ukrainians are resisting with such bravery.
For China, renewables represent the intersection of green technology development, 15-minute cities, and comprehensive social controls glued together by local police bureaus and lubricated by money.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s speech at the Munich Security Conference shook up the European leadership by reminding them of the dangers of communism. He did this because his grandpa, Pedro Víctor García, a refugee from Castro’s Cuba, taught him well about the dangers of communism.
At the Munich Security Conference, Secretary of State Marco Rubio did something unusual in modern diplomacy: he told the truth politely. He reaffirmed America’s commitment to Europe, praised NATO, spoke warmly about shared history and civilization—and then, in effect, slid a note across the table that read: You’re going to have to handle more of your own business.
Weaponized immigration, or migration, as defined, is a term to describe a “hostile government organizing a sudden influx of refugees into a country with the intent of causing political disturbances.”
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.
To understand why this matters, you have to strip away the marketing. A CBDC is not “digital cash.” Cash is anonymous, final, and indifferent. A CBDC is programmable, trackable, and conditional. It is issued directly by a central bank, lives on state-controlled rails, and behaves exactly as policy requires it to behave. That makes it extremely attractive to governments that prefer obedience over ambiguity.
There are many foreign entanglements that America should avoid. Fixing the 47-year disaster in Iran is not among them. The time has come to free the world from the malevolence of the mullahs.
I am sick and tired of all the virtue-signaling about the unnamed “neighbors” of Minnesota protestors who are supposedly being “attacked” by ICE and other federal officers in the illegal immigrant sweeps that have been ongoing over the past couple of months. Note: the vast majority of those “neighbors” are illegal aliens because that is …
This situation reminds me of the legendary short film Bambi Versus Godzilla.Bambi is seen ruminating in the forest. Godzilla steps on him. The end.
COL David Hackworth was possibly the most gifted warfighter in Vietnam and one of the most, if not THE most, decorated Army officer in that war. However, like some other combat leaders in history, had difficulty keeping quiet when he needed to.
The UN’s decision to cut programs instead of the bureaucracy reminds me of how school board members threaten to cut football and basketball after voters dare vote down a school levy. Cutting the number of assistant school superintendents never enters their minds.
