Citizen Writers Fighting Censorship by Helping Americans Understand Issues Affecting the Republic.
US Senator John Thune, Senate Majority Leader, was quoted in the latest episode of The Dakota Scout’s weekly Scouting Lounge podcast as saying “the dark side of the story is that ‘Trump Derangement Syndrome’ is real,” as was written in their follow-on commentary on 4 January. In the podcast, Sen. Thune named names of some …
There are rock stars… and then there are Michigan rock stars—the kind forged in cold air, hard miles, deer sign, and a stubborn refusal to apologize for loving the outdoors. Ted Nugent is that kind of animal.
Conservatives don’t carry signs. They don’t organize boycotts. They are too busy to picket. They just make life hard for companies that go woke on them. Remember the gay protest day against Chick fil A? Conservatives didn’t chicken out. They responded by helping the fast food chain set a single day sales record.
Almost 400 years ago, livery stable owner Thomas Hobson offered customers the choice of the horse in the stall nearest to the door or taking none at all. Obviously, that’s no choice at all. The two Party corruption of American politics leaves the voters no choice at all.
As I look around at the end of 2025 and beginning of 2026, I gotta say I’m enjoying a lot. Of course the fact El Presidente de life Maduro is currently in federal prison awaiting trial for multiple charges is pleasing.
As a great year closes out, the last week brings some really strange views from our liberal friends.
President Trump: “Under these cuts, many families will be saving between $11,000 and $12,000 a year, and next spring is projected to be the largest tax refund season of all time, because of tariffs, along with the just passed one big, beautiful bill.”
The ideological divide between Republicans and Democrats is greater in 2025 than it was immediately before the Civil War in 1860. The recently passed Invest America Act highlights the key ideological difference in a way few would have thought possible in the 20th century.
We may finally be ridding ourselves of one of the greatest RINOs in the Senate. John Cornyn will not be missed.
Democrats have found the new Golden Goose for the elections. Affordability. If they win, I would not hold my breath for prices to drop.
There’s a pattern playing out on the American political stage, and Marjorie Taylor Greene’s resignation didn’t create it—she merely made it impossible to ignore.
Here is a piece, in two parts, written in 2020 after the Democrats won back the General Assembly in 2019 and an update after the 2021 Republican win state-wide. The pieces point to some key reasons – not all – for why Virginia Republicans just had our November 2025 loss.
Democrats carried off-year elections in California, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York and Virginia on Tuesday. Blue states went Democrat. Imagine that. Outside of believing voters would reject the Virginia Democrat who wants to murder children in front of their Republican mother’s eyes, I avoided predictions. We all knew Mamdani would win the mayor’s race because the electorate there is dominated by people too stupid to escape from New York.
In his television show “Yellowstone,” creator/writer Taylor Sheridan delivers some sage advice via his character Rip: “Life is plenty hard. You don’t need to help it.”
In 1986, Robert Cortez “Bobby” Scott, then a state Senator in Virginia, ran for election to the Commonwealth’s First Congressional District seat against incumbent Representative Herb Bateman (R-VA), losing in a landslide, 56% to 44%. In the redistricting which followed the 1990 Census, the state legislature, at the direction of the federal Department of Justice, …
George Washington disliked political parties. In fact, he was the only president who was not affiliated with any political party. Washington believed that parties produce factions and division.
We have seen a mass exodus from the Dem Party these last four years with a 4.5 million swing of voters away from Democrats, to Republicans. This is a party in decline. They have lost the ability to persuade, so all that remains is violence, threats, terrorism to instill fear, to stop Conservatives from speaking.
The assassination of Charlie Kirk shows that the devil is very much alive in our government. The hitman went for the throat. They learned from Butler.
One of the first things I learned as a police officer: when dispatched to a scene, do something – that’s why you were called.
A liberal newspaper openly admits what has been obvious for decades. Taxpayer funded radio is radically left.
