What is observable immutable fact does not change because an individual or a group demands otherwise. Up is up, down is down, trees, rocks, animals, weather; we can call them Claudius or Claudine, but it doesn’t change what they are. Pluto was always a planet, so take that. There are, of course, areas where we’ll … Read more
In May of 2024, Donald Trump appeared at the Libertarian Party Convention – before it devolved into self-inflicted dysfunctional chaos – and promised to pardon Ross Ulbricht. He’s one of The Deep State’s examples. A guy who advanced the anti-central-banking monopoly created by crypto (for good or bad). The FBI and DOJ decided to hold … Read more
There is so much going on so quickly it is hard to keep up, and by all means, send us your comments on anything that Trump 47 is doing with which you disagree. We welcome that sort of debate. We’d also like Congress to pass some laws on some of this crap to end the … Read more
A quick funny showing Presidential abilities and outlooks: Heh! Already, some of the Deep State has figured out where this stick ended up: CBP One app that let migrants fly into US shut down as Trump takes office “The CBP One app, a government platform that the Biden administration used to admit more than 740,000 … Read more
I remember becoming politically aware that our National Debt was rising and never seemed to take a pause. And I was one of the very few who cared while our DC denizens showed little or no concern regardless of party. And now? At one point, I said that we’d find ourselves, mathematically, unable to pay … Read more
A group of three 20-something young men in black tie walked past me on Capitol Hill on Saturday night, no doubt on their way to one of the many celebrations for President-elect Donald Trump in Washington, D.C. this weekend. “Hello, my fellow Republicans!” I bellowed. “What gave it away?” They laughed. This week Washington, D.C. … Read more
Apologies for the almost counterintuitive headline. We all know these goons committed high crimes and treason, but Biden has ended his tenure with blanket pardons for many, and while this galls, in truth it seems like a favor. Much in the same way that Hunter Biden’s peculiar pardon abrogated his faith amendment right – he … Read more
Donald Trump is the new President, with four years to get something done. He’s off to a good start, including one of my wish list items. President Trump revoked the security clearance of the 51 “intelligence officials” who said Hunter’s laptop was Russian disinformation. He needs to widen that net. These current and former officials … Read more
We know the Chinese, and therefore the CCP, are infiltrating every aspect of our lives. It is challenging to purchase anything in America that does not have the Made in China label. Some of us make a conscious effort to buy American, knowing that if we can source our needs, they will be more costly, … Read more
The current state of the democrat party is a harsh preview of what they have in store for America. Fortunately, their agenda was interrupted by an awakened populace that once again elected Donald Trump! Many have attributed Trump’s return to an ever-saving Grace, especially since that day in Butler, Pa., rather than the reckless manner … Read more
OK, this is long. Steve will shake his head as I describe it as a lot like me getting ready to ask a GrokTALK! participant a question: a long run up and then the question. I’ve justified the habit as if I’m chasing that person into a three-walled canyon so that they’d have to get … Read more
Though it is full of fallacies, so-called Marxian “class” analysis still pervades much popular and political discourse. This divisive worldview unnecessarily exacerbates conflicts between groups (so-called “classes”) and is a convenient worldview for the political state because it empowers it to treat all differences between groups as moral inequities and “problems” to be solved by … Read more
What a fantastic convergence of events on a beautiful but cold Monday morning in January. Not only do we recognize Dr. Martin Luther King and crown a NCAA National Football Champion tonight, but we watch as the government hierarchy gathers in the Capital Rotunda to witness the swearing-in of the 47th President of the United … Read more
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently announced new requirements for foods to be labeled as “healthy.” Americans increasingly realize that not everything labeled edible is good for them; in principle, the change is much needed. The problem is that the FDA’s definition of what is healthy, based on many of its past policies, … Read more
It was only a 15-minute address—not really long enough to warrant cleaning off the resolute desk or bringing in the cameras. It probably took longer to get Kamala and Jill to sit beside each other. I can picture that scene as reminiscent of getting a sixth grader to sit next to a first grader on … Read more
One in four Americans claim they trust the media, But only one in 14 have confidence in the news they’re being fed. Our local ABC outlet is probably in decent shape (sorta), thanks to the democrat fanbase. but amongst Conservative watchers in New Hampshire, it seems to be commonly accepted that, In the 20 years … Read more
170 Million US TikTok users are going through withdrawal today after the platform went dark in response to a law passed by Congress and signed by Joe Biden. The bill was argued as a necessary step to prevent China from collecting data from Americans. We assume this is data Joe Biden and Democrats have not … Read more
Contrary to our unalienable rights, today’s censoring reigns supreme. This abusive and illegal tactic has become so inclusive that one wonders how and why in this land of the free. The authority’s lack of corrective concern and subsequent action to such a blatant Constitutional trespass is equally concerning. Our underlying menace is disinterest in enforcing … Read more
This was one of those videos that I had to watch over and over as it demonstrates well the philosophy of iterative enhancement design to accomplish a goal. In this case, getting a Lego based car over a bridge (of a sort): Testing a Lego car against narrower and narrower bridges that it needs to … Read more
When you think the atmosphere in California can’t get any worse, the Moss Power Plant battery storage, south of San Francisco, goes up in flames AGAIN. The original structure was first built by the infamous utility PG&E, who committed the largest mass homicide by a corporation in 2018, so this all seems par for the … Read more
