Wise Old Words
“My son, Jason, is getting married on Friday, and I am responsible for his wedding toast. I’d like some wisdom to pass on, the only problem is, I don’t have any.”
Citizen Writers Fighting Censorship by Helping Americans Understand Issues Affecting the Republic.
“My son, Jason, is getting married on Friday, and I am responsible for his wedding toast. I’d like some wisdom to pass on, the only problem is, I don’t have any.”
The tweet from Slate simply said, “The GOP’s most dangerous new policy just forced my family out of our home. I’m afraid they’re not done with us yet,” with a stock image of two blond children putting suitcases into the back of a suburban mother’s SUV. Naturally, I wondered what policy of the evil, reich-wing …
Start with Clausewitz. His most famous line remains the most brutally accurate description of war ever written: war is the continuation of politics by other means. In other words, wars are not random explosions of violence. Nations fight because they want political outcomes—territory, influence, regime survival, deterrence, or control of strategic regions.
We are squandering our country’s wealth to accommodate 10-15 million unskilled, unvetted, third-world intruders who were invited to surge America’s open borders by Joe Biden and his duplicitous Democrat underlings.
When Missler said we may be living in something like a simulation, he meant that physical reality functions like a user interface. We experience the front end. The underlying code — the laws, constants, and constraints — operate beneath our direct perception. Just as you don’t see the binary code behind your screen but interact with its output, we interact with a physical world governed by informational architecture we didn’t write.
Nikita Krushchev may be gone, but his progeny live on…and they are still wreaking havoc.
I trust my government the way I trust a chainsaw: useful, powerful, and capable of doing exactly what it’s designed to do—right up until someone slips, panics, or decides to use it for something it was never meant to cut. I support enforcing the law. I support borders. I support order. What I don’t support is pretending that massive, flexible, taxpayer-funded detention infrastructure will remain forever confined to the narrow purpose printed on today’s briefing slides. That’s not patriotism. That’s optimism with a short memory.
If you get 50% on a test, you fail. In marriage, 50% also equals failure, and not just the failure of one, but the failure of both partners, and then the failure of the marriage itself.
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.
America doesn’t usually lose its freedoms in one dramatic, movie-worthy moment. We lose them the way you lose your hearing at rifle range: one “WHAT?” at a time, until your wife is yelling from the kitchen and you’re just smiling like a happy idiot because you can’t hear the damage anymore.
Polygamy, in Scripture, is recorded, regulated, and relentlessly shown to be spiritually and socially destructive.
On September 3, 2025, at the infamous Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) military parade, Xi Jinping and Putin were caught on a mic talking about extending lifespan to 150 years through continuous organ transplants while walking up the Tiananmen rostrum.
Henry David Thoreau refused to fund a government waging an unjust war, refused to bend to the mob, and spent a night in jail for it. That night, he birthed one of the most important political essays ever written: Civil Disobedience.
John Adams didn’t write the Constitution like a motivational poster. He wrote it like an engineer handing over a machine with a warning label: this will fail if misused. When he said, “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other,” he wasn’t sermonizing. He was stating a design limitation.
Historically, America understood this. Immigration was not just about crossing an ocean. It was about assimilation. Italians, Irish, Poles, Germans—none arrived culturally identical to Anglo-Protestant America. But the expectation was clear: you adopt the civic moral framework of the country you’re entering. Loyalty to tribe yields to loyalty to law. Institutions outrank kin networks. No exceptions, no special carve-outs.
In school, Baby Boomers learned to love America — the ideal of it — Freedom, Independence, Self-governance — the individual over the collective. “The sky’s the limit.” We learned independence & liberty were why people around the world wanted to be Americans. We saw the benefits of hard work, honesty, & charity.
The OnlyFans phenomenon isn’t a story about her success — it’s a postmortem on modern manhood. When a society destroys real community, mocks purpose, and replaces relationships with screens, people will rent connection wherever they can find it.
The surprise about The Satanic Bible is that it isn’t really about devils. It’s about power. Stripped of capes and candles, the book reads like a manual for breaking down civic bonds and replacing them with private whim — which is exactly what totalitarians, petty tyrants, and authoritarian movements have always wanted.
During World War II, America quietly became a warden to over 425,000 prisoners of war—mostly Germans, Italians, and a few thousand Japanese. They arrived in Liberty ships and railcars, scattered to more than 700 camps across 46 states.
Remember the kerfuffle over former Vice President Kamala Harris Emhoff’s admission that she considered then-Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg as her running mate, but decided against it because he is openly homosexual? Mr Buttigieg admitted to being “surprised” to read that. The divergence comes as their party is grappling with its approach to diversity, as …
