A Most Political of Pandemics

The real virus in America is the Democrat Party’s addiction to tyranny. On March 17, 2020, I wrote: “This pandemic panic reveals more about the weakness of our society and its dependence on central authority than it does about the effectiveness of our disaster response capability or our health care system. I am amazed at…

Blocking Lanes on the Information Superhighway

Constricting the flow of information is a risk to Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness… The left in America seems to believe there is some information people just do not need to know, so their allies at Internet and social media companies help them ban that “forbidden” information, essentially shutting down certain lanes on…

A Malicious and Malevolent Presidency

There is something decidedly wrong with the Biden presidency and this is most certainly not a normal administration. They intentionally and openly divide the American people, and policies are enacted with a high degree of retributive malice, prosecuted with evil glee. You can almost hear the Wicked Witch of the West (VP Kamala Harris) cackle,…
