Artificial Intelligence is all the rage, but its pursuit—and that of profits—has created a problem. You don’t birth digital consciousness out of nothing. Even the most basic AI requires a lot of electricity, and the more powerful the system is, the more users call upon it and the more significant the “emissions” needed to keep it operating.
White Males Need Not Apply
California delegate Areva Martin says, “If you pick a white man over Kamala Harris, black women … walk away.” I’m not sure. The Woke-Communists may decide “stop Trump,” “anyone but Trump,” etc. is more important than “diversity,” that lovely euphemism for a racial/sexual/etc. spoils system where America is a bunch of competing tribes and NOT a sovereign nation of individuals.
Night Cap: Industry Fraud Brings Down Boeing Planes
Recurrent airline accidents involving Boeing jets have triggered both public alarm and government scrutiny. Despite assurances that manufacturing safeguards would be improved following two high-profile Boeing plane accidents in 2018 and 2019 that caused the deaths of 346 people, recent whistleblower revelations of a “broken safety culture” at the company have prompted ire from federal regulators.
BidenX Blames Debate Disaster On … Being Sleepy From Traveling Around The World
Everybody, and I mean EVERYBODY, knows that BidenX was kept in private the week before THE debate, on extensive bedrest, and received a drug cocktail prior to the debate. Everyone else, that is, except BidenX. In what is left of his mind—and that obviously is NOT much—BidenX was traveling around the world.
You Are Paying Your Public Servants 39.9% More Than You Make To Do the “Same” Job
For years, people groused about the high taxes in my town, so the Budget Committee Chair, at the time, asked me (knowing I was a “data guy”) to look into it – so I did. The comparison was against the 30-odd other towns that were “close enough” in size and population to make reasonable estimates for the 25 or so job descriptions.
Stop Defending Our Partisan Two-Tiered Justice System
Robert B. Reich’s columns are always highly partisan and filled with incomplete information, half-truths, or complete lies. For example, Reich asks how we can conduct a Presidential election when Trump’s supporters claim the 2020 election was fraudulent. Reich doesn’t worry about similar continuing claims by Hillary, Stacy Abrams, and Al Gore.
Gender Surgery Actually Increases The Risk of Suicide
One of the justifications for neutering human beings made dysphoric by a relentless cabal of partisans is that it will reduce the odds they might commit suicide. Strangely, these same people never considered how much lower suicidal ideation was in kids before they started inundating them with confusing gender propaganda.
The People Protecting This Man Are Complicit in Making America Less Safe
Larry Bird and Bobby Orr gave me sports memories to fill a lifetime. Neither player was blessed with extraordinary physical traits, but both worked harder than others and studied their craft more than anyone. They had the combination of skill and aptitude for their sport that had them performing at a level that few would experience.
Independence Day – A Snippet from Calvin Coolidge (7/5/1926)
Reformatted, emphasis mine: About the Declaration there is a finality that is exceedingly restful. It is often asserted that the world has made a great deal of progress since 1776, that we have had new thoughts and new experiences which have given us a great advance over the people of that day, and that we … Read more
Night Cap: A Supreme Sore Thumb
When it’s so obvious that the “average Joe” questions “how can this be,” it really must be a humdinger! Consider our right to freely worship from the following, “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof…” Compare this clearly defined restriction to the Court’s 1947 Everson v. Board of Education ruling; “The First Amendment has erected ‘a wall of separation’ between church and state.
Somebody Tell Joe He Is Everything He Claims Trump To Be
Joe Biden claims he believes in the rule of law, but he has no respect for a Supreme Court that currently leans to the Right thanks to the three justices submitted by Donald Trump. As the Democrats like to say, “Elections have consequences,” and in the case of Donald Trump, his election returned the Supreme Court to a Center-Right position.
Birthday Present for America: Left-Wing Hate Group Lays Off 25% Of Its Workforce
Remember this headline from a while ago? “BAZINGA! We’ve Made The Big Leagues! GraniteGrok Has Been Flagged By The Southern Poverty Law Center.” In their role as the mouthpiece for the Left (e.g., anything that isn’t Leftist is a HATE GROUP), they labeled The ‘Grok as “Anti-Government.”
Independence Day
On the Fourth of July we celebrate the day upon which the members of the Continental Congress signed The Declaration of Independence. In fact, independence in New Hampshire began six months earlier January 5, 1776, when our Legislature issued our first Constitution, thus creating the first independent State, established by a written Constitution, and without a king, in which the people ruled through their elected Representatives.
The First Amendment Odyssey of Julian Assange
The smell of fresh Australian air in Julian Assange’s nostrils is a liberty neither he nor most of the rest of the world thought would ever be afforded a man who so tenaciously defied the planet’s strongest superpower. Credited with having exposed US military actions through the publication of documents leaked by whistleblower Chelsea (Bradley) Manning, Assange has endured a long ordeal. So has the First Amendment.
Happy Independence Day!
I am grateful this Independence Day that our nation still fights for the fundamental liberties our forefathers secured for the world to see. This Substack is itself evidence that Americans still value free speech, as we all seek to find truth in a world of unethical journalism and untrustworthy government.
The Forefathers Shattered My Communist Chains
My story begins in Chengdu, China, at the dawn of the Cultural Revolution, an insanity that gripped millions of my countrymen. We were destitute, as were most Chinese during this period. We lived in a primitive worker’s row house by a river sharing one tarp-covered outhouse and one water faucet with eight families. We had … Read more
Another Second Amendment Happy Ending
You’ve likely heard the old saw, “There’s never a cop around when you need them,” so the next public safety question is, “Where’s the trained and armed Citizen when a criminal shows up.”
When Johnny Can’t Read
I know I shouldn’t be surprised, but still, I am surprised at all the hyperbolic reactions that are being published in response to the Supreme Court’s recent ruling on presidential immunity for official acts.
For The Good of The Country, It is Time to Invoke the 25th Amendment
To the Maine Congressional Delegation: For the good of the Country, I respectfully request that you, individually and collectively, move forward or co-sponsor legislation that invokes the 25th Amendment with the subsequent removal from office of President Joe Biden.
