I regularly join four fellow panelists at Liberty Nation News to discuss current events (and engage in a light-hearted trivia game that I almost always lose). In this brief segment, the crew discusses Donald Trump’s proposals to close down the US Department of Education — is it possible? What will the Department of Education look … Read more

A Vermont family whose 6-year-old son was vaccinated with an experimental Covid-19 intervention against the family’s wishes has appealed a Vermont Supreme Court ruling. The Vermont court had ruled that the Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness Act (PREP) prohibits such claims, granting immunity to school and government personnel when they mandate vaccinations. Stunningly, the Vermont … Read more
The transition of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. from Democrat to Independent to (gasp!) Republican was a popcorn-grabbing sideshow of the 2024 election season — until it became the main event. The defection of Bobby Kennedy to Team Trump was a seismic shift in an already bizarre presidential election, but it also formed a more perfect … Read more

Jussie Smollett has repeatedly seeded controversy in the years-long drama of his battle with the Illinois criminal justice system. His narcissistic journey began when he hired two actors to pretend to attack him, and it ended Thursday, November 21, when the Illinois Supreme Court reversed his criminal convictions for doing so. Smollett continues to claim … Read more
Regardless of who won the 2024 election, America has multiple blessings to ponder this November. The motivation behind the Thanksgiving holiday originated in a spirit of gratitude and a unifying celebration of blessings rather than divisive rhetoric. Ironically, the fledgling country called the United States was anything but united when Abraham Lincoln made Thanksgiving a … Read more
Donald Trump’s election victory is quickly taking the wind out of the Biden administration’s ambitious renewables initiatives. President-elect Trump promised to end federal subsidies for offshore wind projects on his first day in office. As with many of his campaign pledges, Americans wait to see whether he will deliver. Wind Turbines Fall in Popularity However, … Read more
I have undertaken a Petition to the United States Supreme Court on behalf of the Politella family. I do not normally practice law. This is how I got involved. When I first read about the Vermont Supreme Court’s decision in Politella v. Windham Supervisory Union et al, I was shocked that any court would deprive … Read more
Amy Fewell has become an inspiring resource for existing or wannabe homesteaders around the world. Like me, Amy wasn’t raised homesteading but gravitated toward it for health and well-being. Amy summarizes our podcast chat this way: “Having conversations about uncertain times ahead can often leave us feeling fearful or full of despair, but this conversation … Read more
The USDA is revising its nutrition guidelines. Critics of past federal guidelines, which favored high carbohydrate diets and were compromised by industrial food producers, are closely scrutinizing the new regulations because they advocate “reducing focus on chronic disease risk reduction” and more on “improving the lifespan.” This oxymoronic shift from prevention to cure pervades many … Read more
Headlines are abuzz with speculations about President-elect Donald Trump’s likely Cabinet selections in an administration that has signaled it will demand loyalty, competence, and determination.

Frenzied speculations about Donald Trump’s various Cabinet appointees have extended to the next head of the USDA, to replace the controversial Tom Vilsack, AKA “Mr. Monsanto.” At least fifteen potential nominees are currently the subject of appointee chatter in blogs and headlines, but one stands out as a peculiar outsider-in-chief: Kentucky congressman Thomas Massie. Congressman Massie … Read more
The federal prosecution against former (and now future) President Donald Trump were extinguished on election night, 2024. Even the relentless Jack Smith conceded his prosecutorial goose was cooked, preparing to withdraw his voluminous election-eve filings against the Donald given the futility of further proceedings. The Electoral (Lawsuit?) Calendar Within hours of Donald Trump’s sweeping election … Read more
Speculation is heating up over Donald Trump’s expected nominee to head the USDA. High-profile positions like secretary of state understandably attract the political spotlight, but the MAGA message has blended with MAHA and Team Kennedy. Appointments to health-related agencies are important bellwethers of how much influence Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will bring to bear in … Read more
But Bernie-blue Vermont continuedsto shamelessly push anti-MAGA propaganda spewed by the mainstream media — in public schools, by paid teachers.
The premise behind federal student loan forgiveness is that it is “fair”: people struggling with student loans because of a down job market, personal troubles, or other of life’s inevitable strains should be “unburdened by what has been.” At the same time, debt relief administration problems include bureaucratic inefficiencies and the increasingly sizable cost, which … Read more
The unusual saga of a former president of the United States being criminally convicted in New York has taken several twists and turns, and now the defendant Donald Trump has transformed from civilian ex-POTUS to President-elect.

Occasionally, divorced couples reconsider their decision to split up and remarry.
