The world’s only one man media empire
We have two choices when the Democrats and the media assert President Donald Trump’s actions are unprecedented in anything other than the pace, volume, and effectiveness. Either they truly believe the world began on January 20, 2025, or they think you are stupid enough to believe so yourself. To hear Democrats, progressives, and their allies… Continue reading No, the world didn’t begin on January 20 when President Trump retook office
There’s an old expression that one man’s terrorist is another’s freedom fighter, but today, we might update it to one man’s defender of democracy is another’s fascist. There’s an old expression that one man’s terrorist is another’s freedom fighter, but today, especially in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s shocking killing last week, we might update… Continue reading Inside every American is a fascist waiting to come out
Why is Jerome Powell talking about keeping interest rates high in the face of a potentially slowing economy when he’s spent the last three years trying to slow the economy to fight inflation? “We may find ourselves in the challenging scenario in which our dual-mandate goals are in tension,” Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell said… Continue reading The Federal Reserve is a fraud that doesn’t seem to know what inflation actually is
Those who are convinced we cannot make things in America anymore have conveniently forgotten the recent history of the pandemic, where we invented a new vaccine, produced hundreds of millions of doses along with hundreds of thousands of ventilators and millions of other medical devices in a few months. There are plenty of reasons… Continue reading Tariffs, our selective amnesia, and the total failure of American imagination
Can firing a bureaucrat in DC cause a plane to crash in Toronto? According to wild new theory being promulgated by progressives and the media, it certainly can. In science, the Butterfly Effect describes how small changes in input can have large changes in output. As the classic thought experiment goes, a butterfly flapping its… Continue reading The Butterfly Effect Theory of Government Workers
Can octopuses feel pain and pleasure? What about crabs, shrimp, insects, and spiders? The phrase “thought provoking” is frequently overused, but Professor Jonathan Birch’s new book on animal sentience and what we can do about it deserves the accolade and then some. When I was asked to review an advance copy of Professor Jonathan… Continue reading The Edge of Sentience and the beauty of being wrong
The people have spoken and they have shouted: We will not be told what to do, what to think, what to believe, how to act, how to live, and how to vote in record numbers. At the risk of sounding like Michelle Obama, I have never been more proud of my country than last Tuesday… Continue reading Why Trump’s massive victory gives me hope for the future and renewed pride in the American experiment
Strangely, the entire issue seems to have disappeared from the public consciousness, an event so traumatic, we’ve suppressed the memory of forced lockdowns, masking, school closures, and more, save to criticize President Trump’s economic record by cherry picking a period during which we effectively committed economic suicide. One of the many ironies of the 2024… Continue reading Reminder: Democrats lead an unprecedented assault on freedom and democracy during the pandemic
A senior editor at NPR reveals how the media outlet intentionally distorted or outright spiked three major stories in recent years, and how the newsroom has been transformed into a progressive advocacy group, aligned against Donald Trump, and willing to lie to get what they want. Earlier this week, National Public Radio’s senior business editor… Continue reading NPR, the corrupt media, and why Trump needs to win
Barely half as many couples are getting divorced and more couples are getting married than in recent years. Some experts attribute the trend to being intentional about your mate and choosing companionship rather than romance.
