The ChatGPT Resistance is a danger to the country, from the cartel boat strikes to Venezuela, outrage isn’t enough

A functioning republic requires real opposition, asking real questions and demanding real answers.  Outrage on its own, recycled forever, in the same form as if it was spat out of a computer, is a threat to the future. At this point, we know the cycle better than we’d like.  In what we can only call… Continue reading The ChatGPT Resistance is a danger to the country, from the cartel boat strikes to Venezuela, outrage isn’t enough

Trump’s war on the cartels and a tragic lesson from Biden’s failure in Afghanistan

When a strike is successful, arguments about laws, rights, or whatever will be far from persuasive, but these same laws, rights, or whatever exist to determine when someone is guilty of a crime.

Dr. Fauci declares himself the Pope of Science, or at least the High Priest

In a disturbing interview, Dr. Fauci reveals a warped view of the world where he is above criticism and debate, completely unaccountable for any of his actions and decisions, more religious icon than scientist even as he continues to cover for China and push the failed policies of the pandemic. In many Western religions, God… Continue reading Dr. Fauci declares himself the Pope of Science, or at least the High Priest

The media and the experts completely reverse their positions after new reports emerge about the Wuhan Institute.  Last year, they branded anyone that questioned the bat origin story as a conspiracy theorist, pushing fringe ideas.  Today, they’re finally starting to acknowledge the possibility.  What changed and why did they pretend they knew the truth when… Continue reading Wait, coronavirus might have been unleashed from a Chinese lab after all?

Coronavirus: Get ready for the third (or is it fourth?) wave!

Are experts really claiming the vaccine will make variants worse and increase the need for lockdowns?  Sort of, because “The virus learns how to, sort of, adapt and mutate now to a vaccinated person.
