The Cataclysm to Come
When nations die, they do so with surprising speed. Ernest Hemingway made a similar observation when a person in his novel was asked how he went bankrupt, and his reply was, “Gradually, then suddenly.”

Human Secularist Totalitarianism in These United States
Human Secularist Totalitarianism is mouthful. Way too long for a bumper sticker. HST is a lousy acronym and already belongs to former President Truman. Yet, knowing what this long label means is important to every American. Human Secular Totalitarianism spawned the latest evil ideas to contend in our politics and, consequently, every aspect of our …
Welcome to the ‘Endarkenment’ – the media has completely abdicated its responsibility
The significance of the passage of time – to quote our esteemed Vice President Kamala Harris – is that it takes the urgency out of even the most despicable actions. The Durham report, coming so long after the corruption occurred, was readily dismissed as a nothingburger by the legacy media who easily convinced viewers that …
High School Boys Send a Clear Message to Trans-obsessed State Legislators – Report
A group of boys at Lakeridge High School in Lake Oswego, Oregon, showed state lawmakers exactly what they thought of HB 3294, the “Menstrual Dignity Act,” legislation that passed in 2021. They pulled the newly installed feminine hygiene dispenser off the boys room wall and threw it in a toilet, precisely where the unnecessary and …
Things on Which Conservatives Should Agree
For conservatives, one of the biggest disappointments over the past few decades of political evolution in America is the consistent inability of the GOP to clearly and strongly articulate and pursue an agenda that reflects conservative principles. Even when a strong conservative President, e.g., Ronald Reagan, takes the helm, there are always more than a …
Twitter is Lying
Twitter is Lying; I know many people think that with Elon Musk owning twitter, then perhaps the rational people had won a round in the fight for the soul of our country. Apparently not: Reading my tweet, in which pointed out (to the Kansas City Star newspaper) the well-known fact of the high level of mental …
Political Parody As a Weapon, Part LXXXVII
Political Parody As a Weapon, Part LXXXVII; “A predictable sad ending to an investigation that never should have taken place.”
What Sane Person….
I’ve lost my country and can’t seem to find it. Did I misplace it, or has it been changed so much by the woke, hateful left, that it is no longer recognizable?
Science, Policy, and Politics
Many government policies enter the realm of the hard sciences. Most government policies touch on the dismal science of economics. All government policies are influenced by political science – and are politics by definition. So, our challenge is when science itself is a political calculation and not a scientific determination.
Bill Barr Mistakes Chaos for Disruption
Bill Barr inherited a very afflicted Department of Justice, in which the cancer had metastasized throughout all of its organs. His DOJ needed disruption, but he allowed it to continue unimpeded on its path of two-tiered justice and violation of the Constitution.
In a town teeming with corruption and liars, Adam Schiff ranks #1
California Rep. Adam Schiff, a Democrat, was positively apoplectic in January when House Speaker Kevin McCarthy denied him membership on the House Intelligence Committee he had chaired for the past four years. In an interview with CNN at the time, congenital liar Schiff “tripled down” on the Russian collusion hoax. He wanted to “set the …
Counterfeit Candy
Investing in quality is sometimes a difficult decision to make, but it is an easy decision to live with.
The fertile imagination of E. Jean Carroll
Clearly, no one knows what did or did not happen in a Bergdorf Goodman dressing room 25 to 30 years ago between Donald Trump and his accuser, advice columnist E. Jean Carroll. But after perusing a series of Carroll’s tweets from around a decade ago – that are still up by the way – her …

Strengthening Constitutional States is More Important Than Cleaning Up the Swamp-The 10th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution is the Tool to Use
This is end of republic stuff and America can’t survive it
The Durham investigation has concluded what most of us knew all along. There was no legal basis for the FBI’s 2016 probe into the Trump campaign or the Mueller investigation that followed. It was all a lie. The FBI, once a highly-revered American institution, teamed up with the Hillary Clinton campaign to (try to) rig …
Will We Survive?
Can America survive another two years with JOE BIDEN at the helm? Many have said they hope someone with an America First Policy, like President Trump, will be elected in 2024 and we will be able to reverse this madness. But the question has to be asked if we will even survive the next two …
The Gig Economy: A New Work-Life Balance for the Modern Workforce
The gig economy has taken the workforce by storm in recent years. Those dedicated to full time employment may not understand why so many people have chosen to pursue this line of work, and employers may be left scratching their heads as to why they can’t find good help. The answer lies in the benefits …
Thick Face, Black Heart: China’s Ruthless Warrior Strategy
In 1989 as I was covering the ill-fated occupation of Beijing’s sprawling Tiananmen Square by pro-democracy demonstrators, I bought a book entitled: “Thick Black Theory.” Of all the books I have read about China and the Chinese mind, this book by a Chinese scholar and politician named Li Zhongwu was the most revealing—and that includes …
Federal Shakedowns and Behavior Modification
Modifying Our Behaviors with non Regulatory Legislation;A brief synopsis of a Federal shakedown and a ‘what if?’
The Breaking Point
It makes little difference to which political party you belong, there is a point where people say, ‘No more’ and stand their ground.
