Moral relativism, relative secularism, and the idea that good and evil are subjective are always a pretext for evil behavior. It is, after all, much easier to excuse evil if you don’t believe in it. If the ends justify the means, then othering people and encouraging your base to do evil for you with violent … Read more
I smell a lawsuit coming. Something along the lines of a First Amendment violation. Abridging the freedom of the press. The People’s Republic of Burlington, Vermont, has instituted a 10-minute rule in city hall. The City Hall Code of Conduct and Trespass Policy. It is quite unprogressive. For example, a city that favors progressive vagrancy … Read more
In case you missed it, an estimated 60,000 “migrants” stormed across the border into Spain over the course of 24 hours. That’s hard to picture, but no worries. You can “Google it.” [T]he event showed just how quickly a country can lose its sovereignty. Tens of thousands of people entered in one day illegally. Spain … Read more

Democrats couldn’t manage a lemonade stand without losing money to waste, fraud, and abuse, and yet they think they have a leg to stand on when it comes to the subject of affordability. Both the present and their history show they can’t. Taxes, regulations, interventions- did I mention taxes? That all comes out of your … Read more
Pretending to care about people’s property is so cute, but that’s what Minnesota, of all places, just did. It pretended to care. Democratic Gov. Tim Walz signed legislation May 4 banning the installation of crypto ATMs, also known as kiosks, which are commonly found at gas stations and convenience stores. Existing machines must be removed … Read more
If you read the hundreds of pieces of content I’ve published on the subject, you might come away thinking I hate Electric Vehicles, but I love Golf Carts. A few beers or a bottle of Jack, a few joints (replaced these days with “gummies”, perhaps), and the fun never ends. I have a different relationship … Read more

I’ve been using the same featured image for memes for a while. Now and again, I break it up with a holiday-themed version, but for the other 150 days we publish memes each year, you get the same image. I’m looking for a new one. You are going to create it for me. Thanks to … Read more
If you want to “Thelma and Louise it” (the end of the movie, not all the stuff before that), there’s not much to stop you, and I mean that metaphorically. Though I suppose you could do a reenactment, which – aside from ruining a perfectly good 1966 Ford Thunderbird – would bring out the advocates … Read more
Bipartisan outrage is uncommon these days, so when you see it, you’d best stop and take a look at what it is, who’s selling it, and who or what benefits. The rear-view mirror bipartisan outrage over the response to COVID is the result of living the damage it did and continues to do. The culprit … Read more
One of the things the Trump haters have become obsessed with is calling your president a pedophile. Given the standard rules for Democrats, that means THEY are. They say Trump is a fascist while doing fascist things. They accuse him of using government to enrich himself. These were projections, and we’ve seen the evidence in … Read more
No shortage of opinion about the advance of DSA Candidates who are running boldly in Democratic primaries across the nation. No Abigail Spanberger, they. She pretended to be moderate, then once elected showed her true-blue colors. A tactic and result that ought to be playing wide in every race across the country. You can’t trust … Read more
The diary is out there. The guy clearly can’t say anything about that or anything else because his beach blanket Biden pardon doesn’t cover perjury or any new offenses. He is at the mercy of the states, Gabbard’s intel doc drop, IC whistleblowers, and others. The ‘Pandemic™” response isn’t something that leaves a nice taste … Read more
Something the Democratic Party, the Democratic Socialists, and National Socialists (as well as the communists) all have in common is envy. The fact is that the National Socialist Party itself — the Nazi Party — was itself propelled by envy, and today’s Democratic Socialist movement similarly uses envy as the engine of its appeal. New … Read more

Maine Democrats and just about anyone else who thinks they can flip Maine couldn’t be happier that the Nazi tattoo guy is no longer an albatross around their endorsement necks. Understand, this is all they care about. Bernie, for example, is still not sorry he endorsed Platner. Pappas, the political climber, had to admit that … Read more
Democrats in New Hampshire are lazy liars. I mean, seriously, at least make some effort. Take Silver-Spoon Stefany Shaheen, for example. She’s running for Congress. Another millionaire Dem exercising their privilege. She’s got name recognition, and her only viable opponent in the primary is Maura Sullivan, another Dem who probably thinks she’s entitled. They both … Read more
Vermont has a statutory fee on its electric rates that funnels money into something called Efficiency Vermont. It takes tens of millions of dollars out of the economy every year with the goal of using it on things that will ultimately reduce consumption and save more than that cost. The government decided that Vermonters were … Read more
Sometimes the internet lords hand you low-hanging fruit, and this is one such occasion. Just days apart, these two headlines land in my inbox. New Hampshire Schools Rank Top Five in the Nation New Hampshire schools are top five in the nation according to new rankings from WalletHub released today. Governor Kelly Ayotte released the following statement … Read more
