Those words capture the sentiment of a cautious Ben Franklin when asked about the type of government that had just been created. His “a Republic if you can keep it” could now be a bit prophetic when considering the empty platitudes and aimless performances of the career politician. Sadly, their re-election results when these attitudes … Read more
If you have a drop of common sense, you already know the answer to why hiring managers might be less than enthusiastic about applicants who’ve recently graduated from college—more trouble than they are worth, even if they have a degree in something useful. The campus culture hasn’t just bilked them for a small fortune; it … Read more
From the “found in the inbox” files, some text and a TikTok from a reasonably young lady who not only doesn’t want to work, but also says she has no idea how. I don’t want to work. I told her she is not going to take my food stamps, she is not going to take … Read more
The company that makes Jaguars today isn’t the same as the one that founded it. The brand has been around for a century, having been owned by Ford Motor Company for a while, and then by Tata Motors. It’s Jaguar Landrover these days, but not for very much longer. The company promised to make all … Read more
If you want to trigger a gender bender on social media, really make them lose it, this clip from Dr. Jordan Peterson might do it. Not once but multiple times. And this isn’t necessarily the first time he’s made this point, but he drops the hammer on the extremist calling themselves the Transgender affirming left … Read more
The source of the manufacturers of unwritten cultural mandates is unseen; finalized into laws when the impact of good or bad moral mindsets fills the halls of government. Unfortunately, but necessarily, the nature of free market economies does not limit or force a spirit of righteousness or wickedness upon the people. Public opinion is the … Read more
The Left is broken, which is sort of ironic. Democrat Socialism, which is the foundation of Marxism by its founders’ own admission, breaks everything to get from wherever you are to the Communist utopia. This is known, but many on the left don’t know it. They hear promises and imagine injustices righted, but the virtue … Read more
In the middle of the Saturday dump run drive, sorry, “transfer station,” we somehow got onto the topic of toxic feminism and its effect on men and relationships. I take my trash to the dump (transfer station) every Saturday morning, and something prompted me to bring it up. My wife might say the wind blew … Read more
When Democrats declare themselves the party of something, you must immediately assume they are its nemesis. Perhaps not today, but eventually. The Cultural Marxists undermining every institution are many things, but they are also patient. The walk through the institutions, for example. The multi-decadal capture of nearly every foundation of Western Civilization. Law, Journalism, higher … Read more
On June 3, Planned Parenthood Northern New England (PPNNE) closed their facility in St. Johnsbury, Vermont. PPNNE has only 14 facilities left, down from 21 in 2022. One out of every three facilities has closed. PPNNE is projecting a deficit of $8.6 million over the next three years. They are dealing with funding cuts from … Read more
For someone like me who loves this country and has a sense of patriotism nurtured from birth, this article is challenging to write and even more difficult to fathom. We have become a nation not just divided by two vastly different ideologies with a common goal, but we are a people divided by what is … Read more
As the language of Marxism becomes increasingly disguised in moralistic slogans such as “social justice” and “inclusiveness,” many people fail to recognize Marxist theories when they encounter them. They expect theories derived from Marxism to be littered with red flag phrases like “dialectical materialism” or “class conflict,” which would be the dead giveaway that they … Read more
This week, I take a few minutes to ask 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 … Read more
Pride Month is a sex-cultural phenomenon, a social construct that, in some dystopian future, would be subverted and changed. Not the name. It’d still be pride month, but instead of being proud to share your obsession with your own sexuality or the virtue signal of forcing others to celebrate someone else’s, it’d be some other … Read more
I love the timing of this, given that I just posted something similar on my Substack (there is a paywall on the second half because my subscribers deserve exclusive content that no one else can read). The revelation is neither new nor groundbreaking. It’s right up there with “Why are you obsessed with kids and … Read more
Has anyone in the Pride “movement,” the word movement being a common colloquialism often preceded by the word bowel, and let’s be honest, the two are kind of connected, realized that June only has 30 days? Why not a month with 31 days? Those Bigots! It’s too late now, and that might also apply to … Read more
The historian Ludwell H. Johnson III argued that “the job of the historian is not to pass judgment, but to try to understand.” By trying to understand the past, historians enrich our cultural heritage and help us to build on the achievements of our predecessors while, hopefully, avoiding their mistakes. History is, of course, a vital component … Read more
Virginia Allen – The Daily Signal Troops chanted “U.S.A.” at the largest U.S. military base in the Middle East as President Donald Trump took the podium before them on Thursday. The president touted the changes his administration has already made to the U.S. military, such as reinstating service members expelled under the Biden administration for not … Read more
There’s a battle going on right now in our neighboring state of Illinois concerning the Illinois Homeschool Act. This Act takes the current minimal oversight of homeschoolers in Illinois and places families at risk of violation by state-appointed truant officers right in their homes. The bill would require parents to file a homeschool declaration form as well … Read more
A superintendent and an attorney for a public school that prohibited a young student from wearing a shirt that states “There are only two genders” now claim the school did not discipline her, and that it has consistently “[done its] very best to protect free speech in schools.” These officials are using local media to … Read more
