WARNER: United We Stand Media Fest Rallies for Freedom

Summary: There is no better time to drive up I-89 to Burlington than when the leaves are changing, and the weather is still warm enough to keep the windows down.  The Green Mountain State transforms into the autumn creamcicle with cherries on top, as nature’s diverse colorscape parades through the foothills one more time before … Read more

PAYNE: Sunshine Patriots And Summer Soldiers Don’t Vote

How we, the people, remain free isn’t the easy path. It requires the willingness to self-educate, to accept the mission passed on from the generation before, and to put country first. The words of the Declaration of Independence did not change history; the commitment of the fifty-six signers did. For they all knew, as Ben … Read more

OPINION: New Hampshire Showdown

As small farmers who produce livestock get more squeezed out of the retail market, at least one state is leading a charge against federal government overreach:  New Hampshire.  Yes, “Live Free or Die.”  That state, bless ’em. The legislature passed a bill, HB396, that allows 3 beef, 5 hogs, and 10 goats and sheep to be slaughtered on-farm … Read more

OPINION: Why Did Americans Abandon Freedom?

Why did 20th-century Americans abandon freedom in the first place? There is no question but that the type of society in which, say, late 19th-century Americans lived was totally different from the type of society in which 20th-century Americans lived and in which 21st-century Americans continue to live. Nineteenth-century Americans lived without such things as … Read more

IMANI: A Reflection on Elisabeth Sabaditsch-Wolff’s Recalibration

In her March 2026 address, Elizabeth Sabaditsch-Wolff offers a chillingly precise dissection of how free societies surrender their foundational liberties. It is a speech that eschews the histrionics of modern political rhetoric in favor of a structural analysis, treating the erosion of freedom not as a sudden explosion, but as a slow, tectonic shift in … Read more

Opinion: The Deadly Perils of Predatory Idealism

How would people react if, on the third time their broken-down car was towed to the same repair shop for the same problem, the swaggering mechanic told them: “Sure — the engine doesn’t work today but — follow me on this — next year, you will drive from coast to coast, and get 90 miles … Read more

Merit Based and Colorblind

The market economy is the first economic system that makes it profitable to be colour-blind and look for the best supply and the best demand, regardless of who is responsible for it. Of course, it will not make everyone colorblind, but it does so more than otherwise would have been the case (especially in combination … Read more

Real Democracy Can Only Be Freedom

With the advent of representative democracy over a century ago in most of the West, the popular belief was that the “rule of the few” would be relegated to the dustbin of history. This never happened, of course, as has become clearer to the “many” over the decades. Indeed, the ruling Western oligarchy has become more visible … Read more

The Javier Milie UN Speech is Must Watch ‘Television’

With his recent UN speech, Argentina’s President, Javier Milei, took the Marxists to the woodshed. If you missed it, now’s the time to remedy that problem. It is pretty remarkable. President Milei delivered a powerful speech at the United Nations General Assembly, boldly announcing that Argentina will break from its long-standing neutrality to actively defend … Read more

The Political Matrix Sustains the Illusion of Freedom

By John W. And Nisha Whitehead  | The Rutherford Institute – What you smell is the stench of a dying republic. Our dying republic. We are trapped in a political matrix intended to sustain the illusion that we are citizens of a constitutional republic. In reality, we are caught somewhere between a kleptocracy (a government ruled by … Read more

Anarchy’s Deeper Roots

There I was, working the “dead man’s shift” at an electrical generating facility when a co-worker related what would become a common refrain from other working dads: his ‘child’ came home from college at Christmas a stranger regarding their attitudes and perspectives. Now, this was way back in the ‘sixties’ when colleges across the nation were also deep into protesting.

While Freedom Flourishes in New Hampshire, the Rest of New England Is a Different Story

Most of New England has some work to do to keep up with New Hampshire’s status as the nation’s freest state. In the latest edition of the Cato Institute’s Freedom in the 50 States report, while New Hampshire finishes first in overall freedom (an index of personal and economic freedom), the other five New England states each finish in the bottom half among all 50 states.

On Commenting and GroupThought

Long-time readers know that I used to confront the Eco-Socialists over at Treehugger by 1) bringing a Freedom/Liberty viewpoint to them (which wasn’t all that well received most of the time) and 2) trying to hold up a mirror to their “inclusive” mantra to show their groupthink wasn’t inclusive nor “diverse.”
