The world’s only one man media empire
Saturday’s heinous events will not prompt his detractors to reconsider, but to the average American, it seems sure to be a defining moment, one that allows President Trump to transcend the political box Democrats, some Republicans, and the mainstream media have tried to imprison him in for nine years. On October 14, 1912, former President… Continue reading Trump, Teddy Roosevelt, and the nature of an unstoppable force
If there’s any doubt how dangerous this expedition was, consider that it would be another thirteen years before anyone successfully made the same trip. The first follow up expedition had to turn back because of the Indians. The one after that simply disappeared without a trace, presumably killed by the Indians. Roosevelt, being Roosevelt, somehow… Continue reading Teddy Roosevelt’s 1914 expedition to the unexplored Amazon rainforest might be one of the most ridiculous things that’s ever happened, ever
Yes, it’s been a good week for conservatives, one of the best I can remember since Trump was elected in 2016, and we have much to celebrate tomorrow. We should not, however, gloat too much or get too cocky. Teddy Roosevelt’s political kaleidoscope changes fast, in ways we cannot possibly predict. At the risk of… Continue reading This Fourth of July, the sound you hear might be progressive heads exploding instead of fireworks
“Not in employment, education, or training,” that is those who are doing absolutely nothing with their lives, neither productively working nor preparing for their future. After two decades of being told all they could not do, the spark of life has gone out, drowned by those who believe failure is our birthright. Generation Z, born… Continue reading Meet the “NEETs,” a new acronym to describe how Generation Z remains hopelessly adrift
For hundreds of millions of years, life persisted on Earth with no meaning at all. Trillions upon trillions of creatures lived and died, born as dust and returned to it without remark. Humanity changed all that, making the meaningless, meaningful. Nature means nothing without people might seem a bold statement on the surface. Nature, after… Continue reading Nature means nothing without people and the experts have all gone insane
Roosevelt has little in common with Trump on the surface, save for being born wealthy in New York City and having significant careers outside of politics, but both men inspired over the top passion and both spent a lot of time in court after their Presidencies. On New Year’s Day 2016, I joined my wife… Continue reading Donald Trump, Teddy Roosevelt, a President on trial, and the American obsession with sick bastards
Iran and Israel have crossed two previous red lines in less than seven days by launching direct attacks at each other for the first time, even after President Biden issued his infamous “don’t.” Somehow, this is being positioned as a victory for diplomacy. Decades from now, assuming humanity survives that long, there is little doubt… Continue reading Biden’s foreign policy, just when you thought it couldn’t get any worse
When Charles Darwin set off on a five year journey around the world in the Beagle, he was not yet the thinker he would become. Instead, he was merely a product of his time on his way to becoming a man for all time, as all world-changing geniuses are. Charles Darwin is among the most… Continue reading Charles Darwin, colonialism, cancel culture, and the irrepressible nature of genius
It’s certainly not because we’re brainwashed. It’s because we like what we see after decades of establishment failure and outright lies about immigration, economics, international relations, and American life. It’s yet another common refrain in media circles: President Trump’s supporters are brainwashed in some fashion, beholden only to what he tells them, and unable to… Continue reading Trump and the truth about his supporters
Contrary to the conventional wisdom, President Trump was by far the most active opponent of Russia since Ronald Reagan and three key policy decisions in stark contrast with his predecessors prove it. It’s become a popular refrain in the mainstream media: President Donald Trump was weak in his dealings with Russia, either because Russian President… Continue reading Trump and the truth about Russia
