As New York City reels… Continue reading Progressives have discovered the root cause of violent crime and it isn’t actually criminals
Coronavirus testing: Insane in principle, a fiasco in practice
Someone really needs to explain why we are obsessed with testing sick people, healthy people, vaccinated people, unvaccinated people, travelers, workers, and more, even if they have little to no risk for serious disease, the results come in after a person is recovered, and the tests can’t tell us whether a person is spreading the… Continue reading Coronavirus testing: Insane in principle, a fiasco in practice
Did President Biden just have the worst first year in modern history?

The clueless Supreme Court and the progressive pundits who don’t care about the rule of law
In a shocking display, the progressive justices on the Supreme Court have no idea what vaccines actually do, how many children are affected, and current hospitalizations. Even worse, they and progressive pundits are even less interested in the rule of law vital to a functioning democracy. Last week, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments on… Continue reading The clueless Supreme Court and the progressive pundits who don’t care about the rule of law

The popular progressive history of slavery leaves out a whole bunch of important facts
The plantation system was developed hundreds of years earlier by the Spanish, Portuguese, and Dutch to supply Europe with massive quantities of sugar.
