It is a widely accepted opinion that the radical left wing of the Democratic Party is manipulating the government shutdown. This does not mean that you will see them at the podium dictating terms to end the shutdown, but it does mean that the left wing is terrorizing the pillars of the Party and forcing … Read more
What’s Breaking America’s Politics This week on the Elsa Kurt show, we push past the Halloween jokes and dive into a week where a machine-signed signature could void pardons, a shutdown strangles paychecks, and a new AI encyclopedia challenges who writes the record. Along the way, we weigh a fractured Democratic Party, NYC’s high-stakes race, … Read more
Like clockwork, it is once again time to talk about Daylight Saving Time. And why the heck not? You just moved the clocks back an hour to Eastern Standard Time—the time it’s supposed to be. And maybe you managed to milk that extra hour for something or not. I wake up an hour earlier and … Read more
Oh, Baseball World Series time again! Seventy years ago, baseball was America’s favorite pastime. As little boys, on our way home from school, we ran to the Chevy dealership on Delaware Avenue in Wilmington, Delaware, to watch the game. Mickey Mantle, Yogi Berra, and Moose Skowron were the stars we hoped to see win … Read more
The idea that Democrats care about anything or anyone but themselves, and that does not include regular, everyday, registered Democrats, is absurd. Nothing they do or care about ends up improving their lives, care, or safety—quite the opposite. You may remember the deaths of a family by a foreign-born trucker who failed his written exam ten times. … Read more
I have found this recent government shutdown to be the most frustrating period in all my years of following politics. This current shutdown is not a situation that can be negotiated, for what the Democrats want is not open to discussion by the Republicans. The Democrats believe they have the leverage in this tug-of-war, and … Read more
The groomers and pedophiles have been allowed to spool out more than enough rhetorical rope… I started a research project last month, during which I suffered through the intolerable nonsense of a series of websites listing banned books in the United States. I won’t share the links because the internet age affords you tools to … Read more
The old adage about playing “good cop, bad cop” to elicit a result offers a metaphorical counterpart in an ongoing challenge to EPA approval processes for new chemicals under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). Enacted during President Trump’s first administration to impose stricter oversight of new chemicals, TSCA may be defanged under his current … Read more
The Climate Cult’s entirely faith-based dogma, which includes the computer model Psalms, Book of Algore, and the Hockey Stick Scriptures of Mann (from which Mann Made Global Warming is derived). It fits the framework of a mythology (in every spiritual sense). Nothing about it has to be right because belief is based on faith, and … Read more
We like to give the social-justice warriors at Netflix a hard Time, but Disney, as a platform, has lost a lot of credibility in the past decade, all because it let the #Wokeasaurus in the door. Its reimaging of the Star Wars universe may have resulted in some spectacular backgrounds and film-making innovations (something the … Read more
After decades of spewing – and funding — climate alarmist rhetoric of the most virulent kind, multi-billionaire Bill Gates shocked the Left by admitting what some of us have been saying all along: Yeah, the climate is changing (it does that), but it’s totally manageable and not a crisis. So, y’all just chill the heck … Read more
A month into the Schumer Shutdown, and Democrats are still trying to distract you from how full of shit they are. Oh look, Trump is destroying the White House (with donor money), which was a super cool narrative that gave the internet an excuse to point out that most Presidents do something (Barry added an … Read more
The Growing Cost of Legal Battles in New Hampshire Schools As school boards and budget committees across New Hampshire begin preparing next year’s budgets, local taxpayers are taking a closer look at how their property taxes are being spent. One area drawing quiet but growing concern is the rising cost of legal expenses in public … Read more
Groktober is coming to an end, and with it, those bothersome pumpkin meme graphics. What, next, one wonders, might replace it? November is filled with possibilities and Thanksgiving. Pilgrims, turkey, whatever you call the occupants, they eventually displaced. No matter, you’ll still get a meme or two hundred or whatever. . . . . . … Read more

Elon Musk’s xAI continues to generate things for the world to wade around in. The latest is Grokipedia. Musk’s answer to Wikipedia, but driven, not by humans. Grokipedia is generated by AI, which, according to Wikipedia, has included significant content from Wikipedia. Given that AI gets its fuel from across the internet, that makes sense. … Read more
Despite paid efforts to discredit Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and the MAHA slogan, the movement continues to thrive and expand because Americans know the truth when they hear it. The hopeful energy of those involved in MAHA grows more intense with each weekly Media Hub and each monthly Washington, DC event. This wave of optimistic determination was … Read more

The Brainwashed Sheeple of America think that the Constitution is our supreme law when it only applies to our public servants. The Preamble applies to We the People, but We the Brainwashed Sheeple do not understand this. The Preamble gives us the right to rewrite the entire Constitution any time we feel like it, with … Read more
In these days of political polarization, I’m hearing a lot of complaints about “whataboutism,” the phenomenon of answering a question about the actions of one person or group with an example of something similar done by someone else. Trump mishandled classified documents! What about Hillary Clinton, for example? But yeah… what about Hillary Clinton? Were … Read more
