Reefer Madness Wasn’t a Movie—It Was a 100-Year Information Operation

by

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.

Voting Behind Enemy Lines In Washington State, Tale #90: Threatening Bonnie Lou

It is anyone’s guess how many foreign nationals are currently holding elected office statewide in Washington State and thus, breaking the law with impunity. While WA statutes requires US citizenship to run for and hold an elected position, THE SECRETARY OF STATE (election office) WILL NOT ENFORCE IT.

The Real Virus: How Fear, Stress, and Certainty Changed Us

by

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 …

TSSA: $10 Billion for Airports, $0 for Kids: America’s Backward Security Priorities

by

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.

Welfare For the Well-To-Do

by

On Boxing Day of 2023, I noted an article in The Wall Street Journal concerning investors souring on electric vehicle charging companies. In plug in electric vehicles are the wave of the future, why would investors not be moving into, rather than out of, such companies? Note that the original article was from December of …

The Michigan Deer Debacle: How the DNR Managed to Fail Hunters, Farmers, and the Deer Herd All at Once

by

For generations, deer hunting has been woven into Michigan’s identity. Opening day used to look like a state holiday. Orange jackets in diners at 4 a.m., rifles leaning in pickup trucks, kids learning from their dads and grandfathers that hunting wasn’t just about venison—it was about discipline, stewardship, and tradition. But if you look at the numbers today, something has gone badly wrong. The Michigan Department of Natural Resources has spent decades regulating, restricting, tweaking, and “managing” the deer herd, yet the results speak for themselves: declining harvests, shrinking hunter participation, and a system so tangled that it now struggles to produce enough hunters to even keep the herd under control.

Washington State Democrats Decertifying Very Popular Sheriff

Washington State Democrats Decertifying Very Popular Sheriff

The last decade or so a scheme has been developed by Washington State’s Dems who hate the independence of county sheriffs. They have been chip, chip, chipping away at the citizens’ right to choose their sheriff and transfering that “right” to unelected, unnamed bureaucrats appointed by Democrats.

Acorns, Aggression, and Melanin: Why the Black Squirrels Run Northern Michigan

by

If NATO ever needs a real-world case study in territorial conflict, dominance hierarchies, and cold-weather logistics, they can skip the war colleges and simply hang a bird feeder in northeastern Michigan. Within hours, it becomes a contested supply hub. Within days, a full-blown squirrel conflict emerges—predictable, ruthless, and strangely educational.

Living Behind Enemy Lines, Tale #82: City Of Long Beach, WA Virtue Signals, Caves To Immigrant NGO's Demands

A invasion of illegal aliens on the Long Beach Peninsula did not happen. There are few, if any, of Biden’s “newcomers” here. Yes, there are about 140 foreign nationals, mostly Hispanic, residing here, who came before Biden opened up the southern border.

Promoting violence against ICE officers, WA AG said “As a general matter, state and local law enforcement do not have to simply watch or look away if the laws being violated if they see somebody being assaulted unlawfully or attacked unlawfully or otherwise having their legal rights violated.”
