I would love to write a post about an outstanding bill that addressed a significant issue facing our country and passed through Congress with a unanimous vote. Our Supreme Court, which many believe is divided, broken, and politically motivated, often votes with a 9-0 consensus. Unfortunately, our Congress is broken far more than anyone wants … Read more
It’s long past time to deal with the core problem that persists from the Covid era: the remaining EUA and the PREP Act. These must be revoked if we are to finally put an end to our long nightmare. The mRNA injections that were produced ostensibly to end the Covid crisis were released under Emergency … Read more

Last week’s dramatic blowout between President Trump and his one-time top collaborator Elon Musk was shocking yet predictable. According to media reports, a cold war had been brewing between Musk’s people and Trump’s appointees and it was bound to break out into the open. It was only a matter of time. On the campaign trail, … Read more

We on the Right need help from our friends on the other side of the aisle. Ever since the George Floyd incident in Minneapolis in 2020, followed by the Summer of Love, we have been watching remote reporters reporting on the peaceful protests, while businesses burn in the background, or they are standing next to … Read more
Well-funded activists and a coordinated social media campaign helped spark the pro-illegal migrant protests on Friday that descended into days of rioting in Los Angeles. Left-wing groups posted calls to action with a location to gather on Friday in unison after the arrest of a local Service Employees International Union (SEIU) leader on Friday. The … Read more
The party that lets its voters play-act at picking the candidate they want for president, then chooses one for them, is holding over 1500 rallies. Protests. June 14th is No Kings Day. And no, they are not protesting how the DNC and Democrat party elite subvert their will. This is about how the American Republic … Read more
I recently re-watched the brilliant film Interstate 60. If you haven’t seen it, put it on your to-watch list. One of the characters, Bob Cody (played by Chris Cooper), is a former advertising man who got sick of lying all the time, and decided to spend the rest of his life promoting truth. Or more … Read more
Mutzig, France – First stop on my annual visit to France’s mighty Maginot Line forts is this lovely Alsatian town. Mutzig was built by the Germans 1893-1916 to defend against enemy approaches to the important city of Strasbourg. It was – and remains – the largest modern fortress in Europe. The vast fortress, which covers … Read more
Artificial intelligence is not just another technology. It is a civilization-level innovation that will increasingly impact nearly every aspect of our daily lives. From how we access information to how we receive health care, from what we see on social media to how our children are educated, AI is on the cusp of restructuring modern … Read more
This week, Keith and Julian are joined by Michael A. Letts, Founder, President, and CEO of In-Vest USA, on why Trump has no choice but to send in the National Guard. And then Bruce de Torres, Director of Communications of American Small Business League, joins the program to advocate for Small Business owners in riot-torn … Read more
Military wars and legislative wars both use the same Trojan horse strategy of deception. When considering the nature of H.R. 22, the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, I think back to a story told by Pastor Richard Wurmbrand, the Father of the Underground Church, who the Nazis and Soviets imprisoned for 14 years. In … Read more
If you’d like a window into the demented minds of Dem party leaders and elected officials, look no further than the pretzel-like contortions required to oppose conversion therapy without mentioning the mental and medical health programs for transgender youth. Vermont Attorney General Charity Clark has joined a coalition of 19 states and the District of … Read more
Economist Professor Gigi Foster delivered a TEDx talk titled The Manipulators’ Playbook at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) in October 2024. It was a bold examination of how, in times of crisis, fear and conformity can be deliberately harnessed by those in power to manipulate public behaviour and silence dissent. Her message was a call … Read more
The US Supreme Court is allowing the Trump Administration to deport up to 500,000 illegals who were granted an end-around the actual law by the Biden Administration. In a 7-2 ruling on Friday, the justices lifted a lower court’s order that barred the Trump administration from deporting illegal aliens from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela who entered … Read more
We should think about education the way we think about being armed — because being educated and being armed are the two principal tools for resisting over-reach by government. That is, you have a right, not to have someone else (arm/educate) you, but to (arm/educate) yourself. And you have a responsibility to be (armed/educated), that … Read more
In England, if you want to start a fight in a bar (or a Pub), say something nasty about the monarchy or the nearest football team. In New Hampshire, it’s housing and zoning. We’ve offered our pages to both sides with a few takers because it’s a complex issue, and there are a lot of … Read more
As a former competitive gymnast and a gymnastics coach in Southern New Hampshire, working with young girls and women who admire Simone Biles, I have a few words for you. Simone Biles, you’re a gymnastics icon, a beacon of brilliance who’s soared to unimaginable heights. But your latest words? They’re a gut-punch, a betrayal of … Read more
It is tragic that the partnership between Elon Musk and President Trump, which created DOGE, is ending. Congress has perpetuated a culture of waste and fraud, enabled by greedy majorities. The electorate’s mindset reflects the leftist political axiom that views government as a source of revenue rather than a watchdog to be held accountable. What … Read more
