I was once a globalist. I have admitted such. I worked for large corporations both here in the US and abroad and thought the US way of doing business was the right way, we did not engage in the deal “sweeteners” our European and Chinese competitors did, and we never did anything that was not…

Every now and again, I come back around to considering G.K. Chesterton’s “paradox of the gate”. Here it is in Chesterton’s own words from his 1929 book, “The Thing”, in the chapter entitled, “The Drift from Domesticity”: “In the matter of reforming things, as distinct from deforming them, there is one plain and simple principle;…

Vampires are real. When people say that what is happening today is something out of a dystopian novel, they normally think of “Brave New World” or “1984”. Of course, I see the parallels – more now to Huxley’s dystopian world but strangely enough, I think of “Dracula”. I just finished re-reading the original “Dracula” by…

That Joe Biden is allowed to continue to destroy himself in public to the cacophonous din of the applause of the sycophantic media is prima facie evidence of three things, 1) Biden was shoehorned into office by nefarious and suspicious means as a front for Obama’s revenge tour, 2) the Obama cabal (still ruling the…

We joke about our “ruling elite” and often analogize it to nobility. We are not wrong. There are more similarities than differences, especially in today’s ruling bloodlines. European nobility was notoriously plagued with mental and physical deformities brought about by inbreeding as they sought to keep their bloodlines “pure”. Certainly not unique, Maria I of…

I am going to warn you right up front: this is long – and most (if not all) readers will not need the level of specificity contained within. You guys are smart and already get it, but I wrote this for sharing with people who have not yet “got it” to help them understand some…

“A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the…

The “majority” in America (however you decide to define it – white, Christian, Western European culture) has been, and is constantly being, tested in a very unique way. In the past, want-to-be dictatorial political parties tend to inflame the majority in common cause against some scapegoat minority. For example, in pre-WWII Germany, the negative aim…

We have a president who achieved his office though unconventional – and in some cases, unusual – electoral means in several key states, of that there is little question among honest people. He won despite a personal lockdown in his basement and socially distanced campaign events where the press made up most of his “crowds”,…

One might question why Biden’s military leadership finds it necessary to go after Tucker Carlson – Professor Hayek provides a likely possibility: “It is not difficult to deprive the seat majority of independent thought. But the minority who will retain an inclination to criticize must also be silenced. Public criticism or even expressions of doubt…

As several states begin to fully open up, we are beginning to hear from people, almost uniformly on the left, who do not want the lockdowns to end. Taylor Lorenz of the New York Times, lately in Tucker Carlson’s crosshairs, tweeted, “The thought of going back to my old routine horrifies me.” Emily Ramshaw, another…

The unprecedented public response by the US military leadership to Tucker Carlson’s very valid criticism of woke indoctrination in the armed forces was based on the straw man that Tucker criticized the role of women in the military (he did not). The military brass got their feelings hurt by the truth and metaphorically turned their…

Andrew Cuomo’s situation is an interesting one – and one that informs us about a larger motive that exists within the minds of Democrat leadership, their media enablers, and their strategic planners. This is a governor who not only followed every Fauci pandemic prescription to the letter, he weaponized them into some of the most…

Welcome to the “Daddy State”. Well, not quite a “daddy” – more like the “Gramps State”. I guess the weak-minded and emotionally needy Democrats who wanted to be coddled might have overshot the mark. Of course, the left uniformly greeted President Biden’s (possibly deep fake) address of last night with accolades because they are members…

One of the shibboleths of the left is that capital punishment is bad. But they do believe in capital punishment. Actually, the contemporary left believes a lot of things they claim not to believe. It is one of the reasons rational debate with them is impossible. Shifting goalposts has supplanted baseball as the national pastime.…

In her famous speech at the 1984 GOP national convention, Ambassador Jean Kirkpatrick said: “The American people know that it’s dangerous to blame ourselves for terrible problems that we did not cause. They understand just as the distinguished French writer, Jean Francois Revel, understands the dangers of endless self- criticism and self-denigration. He wrote: ‘Clearly,…

“If men were angels, no government would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary. In framing a government which is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this: you must first enable the government to control the governed; and…

“Stand your ground, don’t fire unless fired upon, but if they mean to have a war, let it begin here.” ~ Attributed to Captain John Parker as spoken to his Minute Men on Lexington Green, April 19, 1775 There is always a first shot fired in any revolt or revolution. The American Revolution began with…

The American left (Democrats and the soft-shelled Republicans) has taken some very dangerous positions. You might respond with, “Yeah, and the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. So, what else is new?” It seems different this time. What makes it different (in my opinion) is that there is no “climb down”…

Just when you did not think things could get any weirder, they always seem to do so. The well of absurdity is apparently bottomless. Suddenly, Dr. Seuss and Mr. Potato Head are America’s greatest threats. Islamofascist terrorism and China’s growing global influence are in the rearview mirror. Locking down entire states and forcing people to…
