I am what’s called today a “baby boomer.” I suppose the younger crowd might call me a dinosaur. Born shortly after WWII, I grew up in a country vastly different from the one we live in today. After our war-weary nation helped defeat the Nazis and fascists, we embarked on another war, a Cold War … Read more
Democrats are afraid of Muslims. They will give them whatever they ask for. Democrats are afraid of the DSA and will give them whatever they ask for. And the Islamists are increasingly embracing socialism as the fast-track to taking over the Democrat Party. Neither Islam nor Democrat-Socialism is good for you, America, liberty, natural rights, … Read more

But a closer look at the poll shows that support for socialism, membership in … Read more
Democrats in Congress refused to denounce socialism. Only 8 democrats voted with Republicans to condemn it. All of those are in competitive races, so they couldn’t vote the way they wanted, or they might lose their seat. In other words, a congressional Democrat near you, including the aspiring Dems running against every Republican incumbent, sides … Read more
Today, on the Morning Update, given the rise in DSA drivel and envy narratives, remember that your town council or state government is a bigger threat to you, your rights, and “democracy” than, say, Elon Musk.

And not just because that’s the only thing they are good at. I’ve been sitting on this story for weeks now. It was going to be a GrokTALK!, then a Morning Update, and then I wasn’t sure if either or neither. It’s a great topic, so please make time to check out both links, but … Read more
This week, on The New England Take, the lies of the Democratic Socialists of America are manipulating Americans, but New Hampshire leads in the fight against socialism. Also, why Republicans will lead in state and federal races in the Granite State with AFP-NH and AFP Action’s Sarah Scott. El-Sayed’s Michigan Win Puts DSA Agenda on … Read more
…and a major dose of education. The results of many primaries, and the electorate’s acceptance of candidates with low personal standards, prove that we must win the mid-term elections if we are to maintain any level of sanity and preserve what is left of America. The people are frustrated, mad, and financially stretched, which are … Read more
Speed is a significant factor in the likelihood of a motor vehicle fatality, but people speed every day. Some people can’t NOT speed, except when they know law enforcement is present. Shoplifters are like that too. It’s not racial inequality or colonialist oppression that makes them steal; it’s that they are thieves, likely trapped in … Read more
Moral relativism, relative secularism, and the idea that good and evil are subjective are always a pretext for evil behavior. It is, after all, much easier to excuse evil if you don’t believe in it. If the ends justify the means, then othering people and encouraging your base to do evil for you with violent … Read more
Something the Democratic Party, the Democratic Socialists, and National Socialists (as well as the communists) all have in common is envy. The fact is that the National Socialist Party itself — the Nazi Party — was itself propelled by envy, and today’s Democratic Socialist movement similarly uses envy as the engine of its appeal. New … Read more

Greetings, Dear Reader, So what’d I miss? A lot, it looks like. One thing I noticed that I think is funny is the concept some are calling “socialism chic.” SOCIALISM CHIC The thing about the recent boom in popularity for socialism is it’s not even remotely a “workers’ revolution.” In recent elections, the “workers” – … Read more
I’ve got to say it’s more than a bit distressing to head into the celebration of our great nation’s 250th birthday on the heels of Democratic Socialists winning a bunch of elections in New York and Colorado. So, this semiquincentennial (yes, I had to look it up, and even my spellcheck still doesn’t believe that’s … Read more
And to think I started out to prove the opposite TL/DR Synopsis: Here’s my premise, and I defy anyone to prove me wrong. Yeah, with facts. Prove me wrong with cold, hard FACTS, not the sniveling feel-good crocodile tears of the leftist establishment. America IS the absolute greatest experiment in human governance in the history … Read more
This is not a drill. This is not a bump in the road like Sandy Cortez winning in New York, Ilhan Omar winning in Little Somalia, Minnesota, or Pramila Jayapal winning in Far-Left Seattle. This is a full-fledged attack by a Socialist movement masquerading as Democrats. Many Democrats are foolishly thinking they are expanding their … Read more
This might sound a bit odd, weird, hypocritical even, but the people who used Natural Selection as an excuse to socially engineer their nations are uppity about adaptation. The entire Climate craziness on the left is a decades-long effort to undermine their own obsession. Nature, not God. But when nature does something wholly predictable, like … Read more
