Parents
No politics today. I’ll go back to my usual minarchist activism later. Today I’ll talk about something more serious-our parents.
Journalism Then And Now
I believe real journalism has fallen. Or has at least taken a sabbatical. And the people that think they are “journalists” seem to be lacking a spine. Take for example the White House Press Corp. Will hard hitting questions and challenge ever return? Taking a cue from the Kingston Trio, “Will they ride forever through …
A Layman’s Guide to Penumbral Reasoning
Penumbral reasoning is absurd for contract law, and it’s also absurd for constitutional law. If the words don’t have concrete meanings, the documents they are written on become meaningless.
If Liberals Really Understood Economics, They Wouldn’t Be Liberals Anymore!
The American left just love to argue that certain things are “basic human rights.” Not things like our freedom of speech or religion, things which the Constitution of the United States recognizes as something we have as part of ourselves, but things which the left believe that other people should be required to provide for …
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 …
Morbid Stupidity
The Covid Pandemic exposed some fatal flaws in America. The public health professionals were deadly wrong in their professional opinions. Most doctors were deadly silent in their compliance or failure to produce better treatments. The politicians were destructively and deadly wrong in their diktats. The People were divided almost along the same lines as the …
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 …
No Knock Warrants
“No-Knock” are overly dangerous and often un-justifiably in their use. As a rule I do not favor “No-Knock” warrants, where you kick the door and try to take control of the scene. Calling them dangerous is being generous. Not just for the cops, but the people in the building you’re breaking into. A point to …
The media advances another canard to save Biden
Over the course of a 50-minute press conference last Wednesday, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) and his colleagues detailed the flow of approximately $10 million from foreign nationals and companies in Romania, China, and other countries through a maze of up to 20 shell companies, into the accounts of nine members of the …
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?’
SCOTUS: National Pork Producers Council v. Ross
The interstate commerce clause of the U.S. Constitution can become extremely twisted when dealing with the treatment of animals destined for market.
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.
A Mother’s Day Remembrance
My Mom’s ancestors were all 100 percent German. Dad used to joke about her, “You can always tell a German, but you can’t tell them much.” It fit her to a tee.
Sandra Jane
A few years ago, my mom recognized that she was losing her ability to care for herself and she voluntarily (sort of) moved to an assisted living facility which she chose. My brother and I supported and even encouraged her decision. Sadly, as we knew it would, assisted living eventually turned into memory care and …
‘Progressives’ Against Common Sense and Reality
The Nation is a far-left, “progressive” opinion journal with a long history, and when you see an article from The Nation, you already know: it’s going to be almost Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez crazy: How Women’s Swimming Got So Transphobic Almost no other sport is as hostile to trans athletes—and that’s because its culture created the perfect …
‘Predator’ Through the Lens of 5th Generation War
If you’re a fan of the 1988 Christmas classic “Die Hard,” directed by John McTiernan, then you’re probably already a fan of his 1987 contribution to our cinematic culture: “Predator.” (Not “The Predator,” which was the 2018 iteration of the concept and the fourth in the series.) You’ll see this movie differently from the vantage …
Political Parody As a Weapon Part LXXXVI; It takes a village, people!
The U.S. Navy since 2022, has been using a drag queen as one of its digital ambassadors to help it meet its shortfalls in recruiting.
Defending the Republic: Scenario 1 Regulatory Capture
Defending the Republic: Scenario 1 Regulatory Capture In Defending the Republic, Part 1: Introduction, I listed three potential threat scenarios. The first, regulatory capture is playing out now. While it seems to be the least threatening scenario, that may be a bit of an illusion. The regulatory capture scenario has 3 sub-scenarios, depending on the …
