What’s wrong with the kids today, revisited?
The data couldn’t be more stark. Over the past ten years, teenagers are more depressed, more prone to thoughts of suicide, and more likely to attempt ending their own life. Some think smart phones and social media are to blame, but I believe the problem goes much deeper and starts much earlier with the culture… Continue reading What’s wrong with the kids today, revisited?
Twitter: Imagine if Elon Musk blocked The Washington Post and deplatformed President Joe Biden
The ongoing Twitter files is of little use to the mainstream media except to attack Elon Musk, Matt Taibbi, Bari Weiss, and Michael Shellenberger as conservative conspiracy theorists, but everyone knows the reaction would be quite different if Mr. Musk was the one doing the banning and deplatforming. Sometimes, the best way to truly understand… Continue reading Twitter: Imagine if Elon Musk blocked The Washington Post and deplatformed President Joe Biden
Twitter, free speech, and the gates of hell
Elon Musk’s takeover of Twitter has prompted a range of extreme, borderline hysterical reactions. According to progressives, the gates of hell have been opened and people are going to die because Mr. Musk believes free speech is important on social media platforms and someone might encounter an objectionable tweet as a result.

As the midterms are underway, even CNN knows Joe Biden is full of malarkey and always has been
The midterms were always going to be a referendum on President Biden, and no one should be surprised to learn that the country isn’t enthused with a chronically incompetent, serial liar in the White House. This is who Joe Biden has always been.

The mounting progressive meltdowns are likely get worse
Elon Musk takes over Twitter and a deranged homeless person invades House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s San Francisco home, injuring her husband. On the surface, the two events do not seem to be related, but both have prompted connected waves of progressive outrage that are only likely to get worse after the result of the midterm… Continue reading The mounting progressive meltdowns are likely get worse
Nikolas Cruz and our collective failure to make the difficult decisions society requires to function
The jury’s failure to recommend the death penalty is only the last in an unbelievably long line of failures to make the tough decisions required for a functioning society. Everyone knew Mr. Cruz was a danger, but no one was willing to do anything about it despite dozens of chances. Sadly, a similar phenomenon plays… Continue reading Nikolas Cruz and our collective failure to make the difficult decisions society requires to function
The fetal heartbeat debate: If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and talks like a duck…
Fair minded people across the political spectrum were shocked to learn last week that a fetal heartbeat is no longer a heartbeat. Though the developing organ pumps blood through the body the same as an adult heart and its continuous beating is required for the baby to survive, the science had apparently changed, suddenly, making… Continue reading The fetal heartbeat debate: If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and talks like a duck…
Biden fancies himself John Quincy Adams, thinks he can save America
The President delivered a primetime speech about the “continued battle for the soul of the nation,” but who is he to declare close to half the country his enemies? What moral quality and compass does this man have to define democracy itself, proclaim himself everyone else’s better, and demand we conform to his view of… Continue reading Biden fancies himself John Quincy Adams, thinks he can save America
Biden engineered the Trump raid by manipulating legal precedent and trashing democratic norms
New memos show the White House was closely involved in the investigation before the FBI, explicitly stating that Biden would take the almost unprecedented step of waiving legitimate Executive Privilege claims to transfer information to the Department of Justice. This means the investigation was engineered by the Biden Administration on highly suspect legal grounds, though… Continue reading Biden engineered the Trump raid by manipulating legal precedent and trashing democratic norms
