Rising to Meet Our Dystopian Present

January 14, 2025February 21, 2022 Steve MacDonald

It’s been a few weeks since I’ve done one of these but with good reason. As a way of explanation, we need to accept a few things first. There is a statist establishment. It runs Washington DC, and it is run by the Democrat party. We see its end game in their priorities.

Idea for American Truckers Who Want to ‘Protest’ – No Convoy, Just Do This!

February 19, 2022February 18, 2022 Steve MacDonald

The visual spectacle of the goings in on Canada is both moving and compelling. Thousands show up tens of thousands show support, and that’s a message that hard to beat. Optics and perception matter but only if they achieve the intended goal.

Why do we Care? Why do we Fight?

March 13, 2022February 2, 2022 Ray Cardello

Would we sleep better if we withdrew into our shells and tuned out all the negativity raining down on us? Would it be easier to bury our heads in the sand? To ignore the people reaching out to drag us down.

Progressives and their Cultural Ignorance – or is it Malfeasance??

February 2, 2022February 1, 2022 Steve MacDonald

I’ve been watching Perry Mason on HBO Max. It’s an origin story for the character. It’s very good, but as is often the case, they can’t help messing with it, or their writers end up showing their partisan ignorance.

If a Majority of Americans Want To Work For Themselves Shouldn’t That Translate to Them Wanting Smaller Government?

January 20, 2022 Steve MacDonald

I caught a conversation on the radio this morning on my way to work. According to the survey they discussed, 79% of employed Americans are unhappy with their job, and 59% prefer to work for themselves.

“COVID Positive” Politics Is About Progressive Victimology not Public Health

January 20, 2022 Steve MacDonald

No public health good is served by mailing people test kits for a virus that over 99% of them will survive – if they ever actually get it. It’s a political move to grow, not the collective health consciousness but the most prominent potential victim class ever imagined.

To Say That We Have Lost Our Way Is an Understatement.

December 31, 2021 Op-Ed

Like those nations that have preceded us in history the United States of America has reached a turning point. To say that we have lost our way is an understatement.

It’s Time to Act or Kiss the USA Goodbye

December 29, 2021 Op-Ed

American values and families are under assault from the progressives. We see this with CRT and transgender cult ideologies in our schools. And with American Bolsheviks, BLM and ANTIFA rioting, looting, and pulling down statutes in their effort to destroy American history and culture.

Americans Are Voting with Their Feet and It Is Clear Who the Winners Are, and the Losers.

December 28, 2021 Skip

As many have been saying, people are on the move in America. Changing addresses, voting with their feet. And it is clear who the winners are, and the losers.

Cycle Theory and Civil War – Is This What the Left Wants?

July 30, 2025December 27, 2021 Steve MacDonald

I’m still trying to get the training wheels back on this thing so bear with me but this episode is shorter, as originally promised. In five minutes I pose questions based on the idea that America is in decline.

In Biden’s America, Americans Should Go Where They’re Treated Best

December 23, 2021 Op-Ed

With President Biden’s approval rating down to 36 percent, he is now more unpopular than his two predecessors ever were in office. But, beyond politics, the very idea of America is losing luster.

Real Resistance Podcast: Interview – Immigration and the Threat to American Culture

April 26, 2022December 16, 2021 Steve MacDonald

As promised, I am rebooting interviews under the title of the Real Resistance Podcast. First up is Professor Lawrence Mead. He is an expert on poverty and culture and has written a book about the need to assimilate immigrants (legal or otherwise), or American Culture could perish.

Quote of the Day: Abraham Lincoln

December 8, 2021 Ian Underwood

As our ‘leaders’ contemplate military action in Ukraine, and more vaccine madness at home… having already decimated our own economy and the freedoms that allowed us to build it… it’s worth recalling the following observation — one might almost call it a prediction — made by President Lincoln:

Democrats Won’t Make Anyone Pay Their Fair Share

December 2, 2021December 2, 2021 Don

Exchanging facts and opinions are constructive. However, a person publicly making essentially slanderous allegations should publicly provide evidence, not just opinions. Sean Kavanagh’s letter of Nov. 15 provides no evidence to refute my Nov. 8 letter.

Did You Decolonize Your Thanksgiving? (How about Decolonizing THIS, Instead?)

November 27, 2021 Steve MacDonald

Missionaries from Wokeistan have been preaching it for years. You need to decolonize Thanksgiving. You know, apologize for being the indigenous relatives of those who conquered those indigenous people who came before them.

Can someone tell me… why?

November 25, 2021 Burt Janz

“Truth dies in darkness.”

So do starving people.

Living in one of the most prosperous countries in the history of the world, I am dumbstruck by the number of liberals, progressives, and communists who would push Americans into Venezuelan-style inflation, starvation, and socialism.

The Accidental Marxist, Part 2

October 30, 2021 Ian Underwood

A former state representative responded to my recent post about the Marxist nature (those who have more, pay more, simply because they can) of many of our taxes. He justified the existence of rate-based taxes by quoting a bank robber:

Democrats Will Have to Blame Trump… He Made Them Vote for Biden!

July 18, 2022October 27, 2021 Steve MacDonald

Joe Biden ran for president on several occasions. His best year before 2020 was four percent. That’s four percent of Democrat primary voters. Almost no one wanted that guy.

Kissing Religious Liberty (And the Rest of It) Goodbye

October 22, 2021 Steve MacDonald

Pro-government factions are using this Coronavirus to constrain the people. Not temporarily, but forever. These are not necessary measures to address a crisis. They are test runs for foundational policy—a new Constitution of constraint.
