Some New Life in the Uranium One Scandal: Could there POSSIBLY be an Iranian connection?

by

The Uranium One scandal was a 2010 controversy in which the Obama administration approved the takeover of Uranium One—a Canadian company with significant uranium mining assets in the United States—by Russia’s state-owned Rosatom corporation. Critics alleged a pay-to-play scheme, pointing to large donations (roughly $145 million) to the Clinton Foundation from individuals connected to Uranium One and its investors, as well as a $500,000 speaking fee paid to Bill Clinton by a Russian bank involved in the deal.

Department of War: The Day the Batteries Died

by

Technology has made us faster, smarter, and more capable than any generation that came before us. But somewhere along the way, we forgot an uncomfortable truth: every technological advantage eventually becomes a dependency. The Romans understood it. Napoleon understood it. The Army wrote it down more than a century ago. Use the calculator. Use the GPS. Use the ballistic computer. But never forget the skills that allow you to function when the batteries die. A truly advanced military isn’t the one that fights brilliantly when everything works. It’s the one that can still fight when nothing does.

Chaos at the Gates August 21, 2026: Five Years After The Collapse Of Afghanistan

by

Five years ago, the world watched one of the most devastating foreign policy failures in modern American history unfold in real time. The fall of Kabul in August 2021 was not merely the end of America’s longest war. It was a collapse of credibility, an abandonment of allies, and the start of a dangerous new era in global geopolitics.

FBI DESCENDS ON SWALWELL: Devices seized at airport, DC home searched

by

Fox News senior national correspondent Kevin Corke reports on the FBI seizing former Rep. Eric Swalwell’s, D-Calif., electronic devices at San Francisco International Airport and searching his Washington, D.C., home on ‘Jesse Watters Primetime.’

Teddy Roosevelt Built a Nation of Riflemen. Then Democrats Tried to Kill It.

by

Theodore Roosevelt believed America was stronger when ordinary citizens knew how to shoot. For nearly a century, the federal government agreed—supporting the DCM, the National Matches, and even helping selected junior riflemen travel to Camp Perry to represent their states. Then came the 1990s, when Washington decided a program designed to create disciplined American marksmen was something that needed to be “terminated.” They killed the old DCM, but they failed to kill American marksmanship. The CMP survived—and the riflemen kept shooting.

“Trump’s Luck” Explained: When preparation meets opportunity

by

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.

When Elections Lose Legitimacy

by

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.

Weather the Storm

by

This past week our little town got hit by a storm cell that was tornado-like in all but name and dark funnel. It was our hardest hit since the storm of the century, Hurricane Isabel, in 2003. This one was all wind, not water. Living on the shore of the Chesapeake Bay we’re used to getting both. A no name Nor-easter will flood with inches of past records. We weather them all. We weather whatever the storm.

The storms of nature and man will always confront us.

Australia, Firearms, and the Canary in the Coal Mine

by

Australia’s latest firearm buyback isn’t just a debate about guns. It’s a debate about the relationship between citizens and the state. Supporters see a legitimate public safety measure. Critics see a government placing a price tag on a fundamental human right: self-defense. The controversy reaches far beyond firearms and into larger questions about media, regulation, taxation, and the expanding role of government in modern democracies. Whether Australia represents a successful model or a warning sign depends entirely on where you stand. But the canary in the coal mine has already begun to sing.

The Evergreen Tree: When a Pine Became a Warning Label for Tyrants

by

Long before Americans argued about flags on social media, our ancestors managed to make a tree politically dangerous. Britain reserved many of New England’s great white pines for the Royal Navy—even trees growing on colonial lands—marking them with the King’s Broad Arrow. The pine became a symbol of something much bigger: ownership, natural rights, independence, and the stubborn belief that free citizens had both the right and responsibility to defend their country. That’s why an evergreen ended up beneath the words “AN APPEAL TO HEAVEN.”

Before GPS, CAD, and LiDAR: The Guys With Chains Who Built Geometry Into the Earth

by

Before GPS, CAD, drones, and LiDAR, American military engineers were laying out massive forts with astonishing geometric precision using little more than chains, optical instruments, pencils, and a serious command of mathematics. Fort Wayne’s remarkable symmetry raises an irresistible question: brilliant engineering—or something more mysterious? From star-fort battlefield geometry to Freemasonry’s famous obsession with the square and compass, we separate the fascinating history from the conspiracy theories. The conclusion may be even more humbling: the old guys were really freaking good at math.

The Great Pentagon Camouflage War

by

The Great Pentagon Camouflage War may go down as one of the finest examples of what happens when bureaucracy collides head-on with the laws of physics. For thousands of years, armies understood a simple concept: if you’re fighting in the desert, wear desert colors. If you’re fighting in the woods, wear woodland colors. Then someone decided we could outsmart Mother Nature with a “Universal Camouflage Pattern” that would supposedly work everywhere. It turned out to work spectacularly well… provided the enemy attacked in a gravel pit. Afghanistan quickly exposed the fantasy, and after years of testing, billions in replacement equipment, and enough PowerPoint slides to camouflage the Pentagon itself, the Army arrived at the shocking scientific discovery that brown and green actually blend into brown and green. Sometimes the most expensive lesson in military history is learning that physics doesn’t salute generals.

Tell Me What’s Wrong With Christian Nationalism

by
Flags-U.S. & Christian

We have millions of people living in the United States today who are not American citizens. They come from countless other nations, most of which do not share our morals or values. Many worship false — and violent — gods. Many follow false religions, and cults with radical ideologies. What’s even worse is that today, we have many government officials, leaders, and people in powerful positions of control that have no business being there, because they’ve never met the requirements for US Citizenship, they have contempt for our US Constitution and have no intention of ever assimilating to our culture.
