Proglodyte whiners are on their high-energy price horse yet again as the world watches Iran, the United States, and the Strait of Hormuz. But Democrats love high energy prices. They must necessarily skyrocket under any of their plans. As high as they may be where you are, they are much higher in Blue States and … Read more

I do not sleep well, and my day often starts at 2 am. I am actually participating in a sleep study at the University of Utah on the impact of cancer on sleep in patients and survivors. Glad to say I am in the latter group. I tend to do my deepest thinking and most … Read more
When I think back, most textbooks began with WWII and skipped earlier events, except for the Civil War. And while WWII was the defining event of the last century, it still hasn’t been fully recognized for its impact. This reminds me of what two friends, both sons of WWII veterans—one who served in the Pacific … Read more
The evolution of Karens into AWFLs seems like sound demographic science. Women who probably bought into at least one or more waves of feminism and have been jilted at the secular humanist altar.

The Hive Mind is having a rough couple of years. Trump is dismantling their government laundromat. He started with USAID, but the hammer has come down all across the Executive branch.

Ilhan Omar is no stranger to controversy. Like many a Squad member, she invites it. It amps her Q rating with cat-litter-lugging divorced liberal wine moms. Karens, AWFLs, they love that stuff.
