In the days after the tragic natural disaster in Texas, which claimed nearly 100 lives, with many still missing, we are beginning to hear the heart wrenching stories as well as those of tremendous heroism that lift our hearts. We have heard about the young girls writing their names on their arms in case someone … Read more
Are There Other Tricks Up His Sleeve? I think it’s crazy for MAGA supporters to suggest breaking up the coalition over the Epstein Files FUBAR. They are not the beginning and the end of the elite’s international child sex trafficking cabal. Any list would be helpful in guilt-shaming globalist predators, but I’m not convinced it … Read more
Vermont floods occasionally, but until recently, when politics and money were at stake, no one blamed it on your trying to live a comfortable, affordable life. These days, that comfort is to blame for something that has been happening since long before peasants could find much, if any, comfort. Flooding happens, and people build stuff … Read more
A Louisiana law requiring the display of the Ten Commandments in public schools has been struck down by the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals as unconstitutional. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott just signed a similar bill, which will likely struggle under the Fifth Circuit decision, while plaintiffs in Arkansas have filed suit challenging a nearly identical … Read more
People will die. Hundreds of people will die. Thousands of people will die. Thank goodness they stopped before they reached millions, as nobody would believe that hyperbole. According to Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal (D-WA), she could not make her way through an airport without people coming up to her so distressed by the Big Beautiful Bill, … Read more
By now, most Americans have heard about the Justice Department’s 2025 National Health Care Fraud Takedown, which uncovered $14.6 billion in fraudulent schemes involving Medicare and taxpayer funds. What you may not realize is that this kind of fraud is happening quietly and regularly, to people like me, and possibly to you. In January 2023, … Read more
When your entire identity and agenda are defined by someone like Donald Trump, RFKJ, and, for a brief moment, Elon Musk, the one thing external observers need to understand is why? The easy answer is that they don’t stand for anything but their own misinterpretations of what someone else is doing, followed by projections of … Read more
Mother Nature showed her ugly side on Saturday night and Sunday morning and claimed over 68 lives in the small town of Kerrville, Texas. As the rains came down at over 12 inches per hour, all that water had just one path to take. The water flowed into the Guadalupe River near San Antonio, and … Read more
Gremlins ate my podcast, but I salvaged some of the conversation I recorded an excellent interview with Phil Kerpen from American Commitment last week about the One Big Beautiful Bill, and could not get it from recording to publication. There were insurmountable technical issues. It was such a crash and burn that the AI-generated transcript … Read more
I find it difficult to imagine that the 20% of the population with Trump Derangement Syndrome or those who are TDS “adjacent” could ever tire of expressing their ire in public. It’s more or less all they’ve got. What does your party stand for? Hating Trump! We’re not Trump. Trump is evil. He is destroying … Read more
Why cattle and beef prices are slipping after a prolonged rise. Meat-eating consumers have experienced sky-high beef prices at their local grocery stores and steakhouses. After several years of drought, the US cattle herd is the smallest it has been in more than seven decades. At the same time, tariffs have added costs to many … Read more
Several times today, you will find detailed content on some of the significant issues with New Hampshire’s One Big Beautiful Bill (or not so much), HB2. It’s got some good, bad, and ugly, and we’ve covered some of that here and here, and while there’s a lot of good, and we need to take the points we can get, … Read more
Many of us are at a point where being still for too long can cause us harm. You went to sleep feeling fine, but getting up is a form of torture that can last for minutes, hours, or even days: aches, pains, twinges, loss of mobility, or range of motion. Getting old, as some like … Read more
A new bill gaining momentum in Washington is absolutely the right thing to do for America, but it will cause an uproar on the Left for so many reasons. First, the bill is sponsored by Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), who is probably the second most hated person in America, by the Left, after Donald Trump, … Read more
On this radiant Fourth of July, 2025, as I stand under the vast American sky, my heart swells with gratitude for the 249th anniversary of this nation’s independence. For someone like me, who left oppression in Iran decades ago, this day is more than a celebration of America’s birth. It’s also a personal testament to the … Read more
How could Julia Child and Groucho Marx be wrong? The Fourth of July is a firecracker of a feast, when billows of smoke rise from grills all over the long-liberated nation. Barbecued favorites, especially juicy hamburgers and hot dogs, are always the specials of the day. It’s the prime time to chow down on beef and lift up … Read more
I will concede that politicians are not a trustworthy breed. They lie about their past to enhance their present. Ask Senator Dick Bluementhal (D-CT) about his tour in Vietnam. They distort their party affiliation to make themselves attractive to more people. Ask Zohran Mamdani, the Democrat candidate for mayor of New York City, who says … Read more
Too many Americans do not realize how blessed our nation is, as it was founded upon the foundation of the gospel of Jesus Christ. This Independence Day, let us not allow hidden forces of subversion to continue targeting these foundational roots of our moral strength. The subtle encroachment of rewriters of history, the educational establishment, … Read more
Mrs. Wolf, my eighth-grade history teacher in a Boston Public School, ensured that her students not only knew the reasons why the 13 colonies united against Great Britain and declared their independence from Great Britain, but also had her students memorize a good portion of the Declaration of Independence. They also had to know about … Read more
For the second year in a row, it has become difficult to impossible for the usual suspects to play their tiny drought violins to scare the uninformed. Heat, however, has come in waves when it has not been cool. We had three very hot days in this corner of the globe while other “corners” have … Read more
