I realize I devoted my most recent article to the Islamic invasion of America. Still, I absorbed a plethora of information over the weekend about the depth of the fraud and corruption in Minnesota, and now in Maine, that I feel we cannot cover this situation enough. A friend of ours is from Edina, which is a … Read more

This week on GrokTALK! [Rewind] What happened to the word “conservatism”? The Neocons and RINOs wear it like a skin suit, muddying not just its meaning but how the world views people who claim to be conservative. What does it mean, what are its goals, and can we get there from here? Originally aired Jun … Read more
I can’t say for how long Somali fraud schemes will dominate searches in the real world. That would be, ironically, the internet world, which can tend to be more surreal than real. The supposed media isn’t doing any heavy lifting on these stories if they lift anything at all. Locally, WMUR, News 9, has zero … Read more

This week on the Elsa Kurt Show, we invited part of the Taylor Jean crew aboard the show to share how a handful of friends—bankers, builders, and tinkerers—built one of the most respected teams on the offshore tournament circuit.

The Black Lives Matter movement was a massive money laundering operation that got a lot of people excited about doing things that didn’t improve black lives beyond leadership. The lives at the top got rich and moved into white neighborhoods. Everyone else got angry and divisive. In the end, black lives were lost, and some … Read more
For years, the Islamic Republic of Iran has been playing a long game on American soil. While the regime chants “Death to America” in the streets of Tehran, their ideological foot soldiers have been quietly embedding themselves in the ivory towers of our universities.

Finally, a Fourteenth Amendment challenge makes it to our Supreme Court! This is in line with my long-held belief against these birthright citizenship rulings, which reward every lawbreaker whoseeks for her child to be born in “the land of plenty.” What should have been a Congress-enacted, time-restricted law, ensuring all the rights and freedoms of … Read more
