There are a number of current issues bouncing about in the public domain that are actually either democrat party talking points, foreign influence operations, or both. Most are both, since they share the same agenda. Stop Trump, Make America Weak Again (MAWA), and put us back on the slippery slope of globalist control. ATM to … Read more
Sometimes you have to be careful what you wish for, and the desire to bring in some fresh blood at every level of government may not be working out as hoped. Because we do not have term limits except in a few Governor situations, we have a House and Senate that often looks like a … Read more

In the years before 1763, the British Empire—although in theory a unified entity—was really a federation. The central government in London controlled foreign affairs and the imperial post office. It also regulated trade with foreign countries and among units of the empire. But otherwise, the 13 future American states were largely self-governing. In each, the … Read more
Today, on your Morning Update, a private citizen is suing the Associated Press (AP) over stories that harmed his business by portraying it as an illegal activity. AP, facing millions in losses, is arguing that the words don’t always mean what they say they mean. 00:00 The AP Style Guide (words mean things)01:19 Zachary Young’s … Read more
I was talking with a friend who is starting up her podcast again, and she will be focusing on Jewish people returning to the homeland, and there are many more than you would think, as well as young Jews returning to their faith. The first scenario, not so much, but the second is a phenomenon … Read more
Plenty going on in the world, but not enough time or space to talk about all of it, so here are a few more links from my jarhead friend. Top of the fold Governments are warning their own people NOT to hold any sensitive conversations in cars. That pretty much confirms that your car is … Read more
Since 1991, Vermont’s only member of the US House of Representatives has been either a socialist who couldn’t run as one (until now) or a Democrat (same difference). It has one district, the entire State of Vermont. You can’t gerrymander that. And despite its open borders and sanctuary city-like leanings, the state is still 93% … Read more
“It is in the Interest of Tyrants to reduce the People to Ignorance and Vice.” Samuel Adams warned us – tyranny is built on people who lack knowledge and strong morals. That’s because he knew freedom is built on the opposite foundation. “For they cannot live in any Country where Virtue and Knowledge prevail.” He … Read more
Gender affirming care is one of those left-wing-isms. Without thought or study, you might say, well, a urologist does that for men, and a gynecologist does that for women. No one reading this thinks that is what they mean, but the word “care” is what truly misleads, and “affirming” is completely out of context. You … Read more
My first ever order of zinc, as a separate nutritional supplement, was in April 2020. At that time, news sites were overflowing with COVID gloom & doom, much of which made no logical sense at all, so I began serious research, which led me to conclude that we needed to supplement our diets with much … Read more
Maybe this is just another attack on women. After all, they want men to undress in your daughter’s locker room in high school, and to injure your daughter badly on the basketball or volleyball court. They want your once champion collegiate swimmer, who is poised to win an NCAA individual title, to stand on the … Read more
Today on the Morning Update, the SPLC interim Grand Poobah had to defend his organization before Congress, and while it’s galling that the SPLC funded hate and profited from that, and put groups like Moms for Liberty on the Hate Map, it’s not what they did, but how they did it. Watch on the ‘Grok … Read more
In the midst of unprecedented national division, Republicans and Democrats have apparently found something upon which they agree: that US moral values are “poor.” A May 1-17 Gallup survey offered a sobering assessment of Americans’ negative views of their country’s moral trajectory. For Better or Worse Gallup reported a 12-percentage-point increase (to 56%) from last … Read more
There has been plenty of discussion at multiple levels of government and among ordinary commoners about the subject of energy. Also, there’s an abundance of subject material on the internet, but amid all that chatter, I ran into this WMUR short video discussing Community Power(CP), something I’ve written about before. After watching it, I noticed … Read more

Breaking news. A UK Supermarket chain is racist. Yes. Sainsbury’s, a dominant retail outfit in the UK that runs just under 1,500 locations (plus a few hundred others under different names), is banning brown eggs. All I can think to say is White Egg Supremacy. What’s next, swastikas and goose-stepping? Maybe. Their stated rationale for … Read more
I have been writing a daily political opinion article for over 5 years, nearly 2,000 consecutive days, and I have received a fair share of criticism. I can handle criticism, as that is what fuels conversation and debate. I have said from my first article that my purpose was not to profess I had all … Read more

Spielberg is releasing yet another movie about psychic phenomena that may be caused by, or are a result of… aliens. This is not his first foray into the genre. His famous two movies, “ET The Extra-Terrestrial” and “Close Encounters of the Third Kind” previously explored the possibility of aliens, either among us or visiting us. … Read more
