Facebook Jail: We Did Our Time—Now History Is Doing the Talking

by

Remember when asking the wrong question could earn you a 30-day sentence in Facebook Jail? Millions of posts disappeared, accounts were suspended, and countless users earned their digital “street cred” for challenging the Official Truth™ of the day. Then, as the science evolved, some forbidden topics quietly became acceptable discussion. This isn’t just a look back at the COVID years—it’s a satirical reminder that when a handful of powerful platforms decide what’s permissible to say, every free society should ask the same uncomfortable question: **Who decides what the truth is tomorrow?**

Sometimes you just have to be an [insert slang term for the anus here] to do things right

Immigration

My good friend and sometime blog pinch hitter William Teach noted the Associated Press story, “ICE arrests jumped to nearly 50,000 in July, the highest monthly total of Trump’s second term.” That’s great, but let’s do the math. 50,000 arrests, and hopefully deportations, times 12 equals just 600,000 per year. In the 30 months remaining …

A story the media won’t cover

by

Pravda reported, “Ex-deputy head of Zelensky’s office remanded in custody with bail set at $447,000.”

AP reported nada. In fact, Grok said in the wee hours of this morning, “No major US news outlets appear to have reported on the arrest (or court-ordered pre-trial detention) of Irina Mudra as of August 26, 2026.”

So I am stuck relying on Russian propagandists for information. Isn’t that swell?

When Murderers Get Fan Clubs: America’s Moral Compass Is Broken

by

America has always had criminals. What’s new is the fan club. From cheering an accused CEO killer to rallying around a mother who killed her three children, we’re watching sympathy, grievance, and tribal identity compete with basic moral judgment. When the first question becomes “Whose side am I on?” instead of “What is right and what is wrong?” a nation has a serious problem. Isaiah warned about calling evil good and good evil. Maybe our moral compass isn’t merely drifting anymore. Maybe it’s broken.

Fixing The Golf Rift Between The Professional Golf Association And the Renegade LIV/Saudi Arabia Sovereign Wealth Fund Imbroglio: A Solution For The Supporting Public Part 3

Which Arnold Palmer wanted nothing to do with. In truth it was an ill-thought-through idea that would not demonstrably benefit the members of the most dominant tour in the world that all golfers aspired to that Palmer had been instrumental in building, the PGA tour: Why mess with a winning formula?

$40+ Trillion Debt: The Bell Tolls for the US Dollar

by

Last Tuesday, the US’s debt passed the $40 trillion mark.

DC enjoys ignoring the debt almost as much as it loves piling it up. But that grim mile marker forced some of DC’s denizens to extrude some fake concern.

The tenor of which was almost entirely that of innocent bystanders – rather than that of the malevolent participants they all are:

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

by

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.

Stockholders Union

by

Our income is under attack from both the right and left. The socialist left wants corporate profits to be restricted with higher taxes while the Trump administration has been intimidating corps to lower prices – both plans mean less income to pay their shareholders. Corporations use their gross income (profit before tax) for capital improvements and research. What remains after taxes is paid out as dividends to the owners (stockholders). Anyone who has common stock – either personally, in trust or in a retirement account – is at risk of losing income when publicly traded companies encounter reduced profits.

Country legend Randy Travis and wife honor Dolly Parton as ‘The Queen’

by

In a CNN exclusive, Dolly Parton’s dear friend Randy Travis, who is a legendary country music singer and songwriter in his own right, shares memories of the late superstar. Travis and his wife Mary tell Erin Burnett how ‘enamored’ they were with the late singer, saying Randy’s time ‘working with her was a dream come true.’

Bumble Just Surrendered to Biology — And a Lesbian Feminist Journalist Called It Twenty Years Ago

by

On Tuesday, August 11th, 2026, a company quietly euthanized the one idea it was built on.

Bumble — the dating app whose entire personality, marketing budget, brand identity, and stock pitch rested on the single rule that WOMEN MESSAGE FIRST — announced that men can now message first.

That is it. That is the whole company. Gone. Eleven years of “we are the app where women hold the power,” retired in a press release with the tone of a man explaining to his wife why there is a boat in the driveway.

Useful Idiots: When the Revolution You Cheered Comes for You

by

History’s most dangerous political bait-and-switch begins when groups with completely incompatible end goals unite around a common enemy. Iran’s Marxists thought they were using the Islamists; the Islamists had other plans. Today, America’s socialists, progressives, and Islamist activists sometimes find themselves marching beneath the same anti-capitalist and anti-Western banners. Iran offers an uncomfortable warning: before helping tear down the old order, you’d better ask what your revolutionary partners intend to build in its place—and whether they’ll still need you when they’re finished.
