If I Were Dr. Evil: I’d Skip the Shark Death Ray and Start Three Wars

If I were Dr. Evil, I wouldn’t build a death ray—I’d build three crises. Light up the Middle East, keep NATO and Russia occupied in Europe, then watch China eye Taiwan while America tries to put out three fires with one garden hose. The nightmare isn’t one enemy defeating America; it’s several adversaries realizing they don’t have to take turns.

1985: The Future of Warfare Was Supposed to Be Blinding

Imagine explaining to a military planner in 1985 that the laser weapons designed to blind enemy soldiers would never become the future of warfare. During the Cold War, some experts genuinely believed that bullets would eventually give way to directed-energy weapons that would simply remove an enemy’s ability to see. Then reality intervened. It turned out that permanently blinding someone wasn’t viewed as the humanitarian breakthrough some had imagined. The battlefield stayed remarkably old-school, and the age of the battlefield ophthalmologist never quite arrived.

The Principles of Javier Milei’s Revolutionary Success

Libertarians and limited government/free market-oriented conservatives should be thrilled about what is happening in Latin America generally and in Argentina in particular. The latter lit the fuse to the Revolution that is now engulfing the former. The Liberty Movement spearheaded by Javier Milei, by melding sound governance and politics, is defeating socialism and spreading freedom …

911: 25-Years, What’s the Truth?

Twenty-five years later, America doesn’t need another cover-up—it needs confidence. That confidence doesn’t come from telling people to stop asking questions. It comes from following the evidence wherever it leads. Maybe a new investigation changes nothing. Maybe it confirms everything. Or maybe retired officials, newly released records, and witnesses with nothing left to lose finally fill in the missing pieces. We may not like every answer we find, but if America is ever going to heal and move forward together, it starts with knowing the truth.

North Korea Discovers Internet Porn

Imagine spending your entire life being told your country is the greatest civilization on Earth… then someone hands you a Wi-Fi password. According to a widely circulated—but unverified—report, North Korean troops may have discovered unrestricted internet access and promptly demonstrated why every dictatorship fears broadband more than bombs. Tanks can level buildings. The internet levels narratives. Somewhere, a political commissar is still trying to explain why the greatest threat to operational readiness wasn’t enemy artillery—it was the guest Wi-Fi passsord to PornHub.

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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.
