Government Overcriminalization Catches Unwary Americans
A strange trend has emerged in the law – strange and dangerous.

Progressive EV Mandates and Economic Reality
President Joe Biden advertised himself as a uniter of Americans but instead seems to have embarked on a crusade to unite government with industry.

Night Cap: White Farmers Matter – USDA Rules Violate the Equal Protection Clause

Headlines proclaiming that bird flu in cows has impacted the milk supply—and that cows are then spreading the disease to laying hens—are disturbing contributions to the cacophony of looming doomsday threats to humanity.

A proposed EPA rule mandating more stringent effluent limitations for nitrogen, and adding phosphorus for the first time, would impose high costs on approximately 850 of the nation’s meat and poultry processing (MPP) facilities.
