The world’s only one man media empire
President Biden’s signature progressive legislation fails to attract the 50 votes required for passage in the Senate after months of negotiations. Progressives are furious, but they should’ve seen this coming all along when the bill was built on gimmicks and cheap accounting tricks with no central message or purpose. Incredibly, it seems they are only… Continue reading Build Back Better bites the dust, for now at least
Vox calls for a “break” from capitalism to focus on mental health issues along with a complete restructuring of work in general, presuming we’d all be better off sitting at home complaining about our plight. Fortunately, a progressive philosopher still recognizes the dignity of work and believes it could be the answer to Democrat struggles… Continue reading It’s official: Some progressives don’t think we should actually work for a living, fortunately they’re counterbalanced by others who still believe in the dignity of a day’s pay
Meet the “Google Earth of Biology,” the OneZoom Explorer, recently launched by the Imperial College of London. This interactive, online experience maps the connections between 2.2 million living species in a visual, searchable format, including over 85,000 images. Yes, the Tree of Life is now online, fulfilling a quest of over two centuries, allowing you… Continue reading The entire “Tree of Life” is online after the idea was first proposed over 200 years ago, and it’s a humbling, interactive experience open to everyone
Democrats, the mainstream media, and even some Republicans remain obsessed with the January 6 riots, even as their fevered fantasies of a coordinated, armed insurrection have been revealed as completely false. They’re now resorting to doctoring text messages and lying about it to keep the story alive, desperate to go after Trump one more time… Continue reading Yes, conservatives almost universally condemned the January 6th riots, despite lies to the contrary
It’s an irony of our times that a former South African, a creature of deep-blue, progressive Silicon Valley, and now the richest man in the world should become a divisive, cultural touchstone for the enduring importance of freedom. Fighting lockdowns and vaccine mandates, Mr. Musk has earned the respect of conservatives and the ire of… Continue reading Elon Musk: Time’s Person of the Year has become a relentless advocate for freedom, placing himself in the middle of our raging culture wars
Racism in America is apparently so rampant that everything we do and touch must be seen through that lens. In the past week, the mainstream media has covered everything from electric cars to inflation with abortion in between as a potentially racist issue. They’ve also found a new solution: Conservatives should just surrender and embrace… Continue reading Electric cars, inflation, and abortion rights: The everything is racist saga continues, as some say a Civil War is coming
Mr. Smollett lied to the police and fanned the simmering flames of racial resentment, but many progressives think he’s not to blame. Instead, it’s the justice system itself or perhaps local politics in Cook County, anything but the man who perpetrated the crime. Last week, Jussie Smollet was convicted by a jury of his peers… Continue reading Jussie Smollett: Reactions reveal a warped vision of social justice writ large
The legendary “Fab Five” released their 15th studio album, “Future Past,” earlier this year, celebrating their 40th anniversary by continuing to push the limits of popular music and even music videos, proving once again they are without a doubt the best pop band on the planet. It helps that they actually write and play their… Continue reading Duran Duran: Still the greatest pop band on the planet bar none
As Russian troops mass on the Ukrainian border in advance of an expected invasion next year, President Biden believes economic sanctions alone can deter the threat, but Europe is so heavily dependent on Russian oil it’s difficult to see how that would be effective. In the meantime, China is threatening Taiwan and strengthening ties to… Continue reading The Russia problem is really a China problem, and there is no easy fix after decades of failure
As Jussie Smollett’s trial finally comes to a close, we shouldn’t forget that he did it for the money, using racial resentment for his own fame and fortune. He understood that stoking racial flames is big business in America today. How is that possible in a country supposedly run by white supremacists for white supremacists?… Continue reading Jussie Smollett and the corrupt nexus between race and money
