MACDONALD: A Little Education FAFO

2 hours 2 min ago

The public school system is a jobs program for progressives. A local “franchise” of the Big Government expansion machine. The one that creates problems so it can grow itself and use your money to pay them to help progressives stay in power. The war on poverty, the war on drugs, every moral call to war ... Read more

Chicago had its typical holiday weekend, as 13 people were shot during Memorial Day weekend in the Windy City.

NAPOLITANO: American Heresy on the 4th Amendment

21 hours 2 min ago

When the Bill of Rights was being crafted in the House of Representatives, it was left to James Madison to articulate the values that would provide an insulation between government negating freedom and the inalienable rights of all persons.

MACDONALD “Menstrual Equity”

Sun, 2026-05-31 21:00 +0000

The progressive industrial complex, by its nature, looks for ways to justify non-productive use of tax dollars. It justifies the creation of institutions (agencies) staffed with people on a taxpayer payroll whose primary interest is almost always keeping their jobs. And what better way than inventing rights you are then obligated to protect. That’s the ... Read more

MACDONALD: This Right Here!

Sun, 2026-05-31 11:00 +0000

This right here. This is an excellent example of the sort of BS license the Handmaiden media takes with the truth. Adding fuel to the fire is the couple’s purchase of an $8million Malibu pad last December, although sources told the Daily Mail the new home was bought due to security concerns – especially after ...

Sun, 2026-05-31 02:00 +0000

We all can agree that in today’s world, a military clash between superpowers is self-defeating.  Having militarily conquered the weaker and vulnerable, America represented a military and economic powerhouse.  So, the communists devised a game plan of gradual and patient infiltration that targeted the hearts and minds of its future generations.  Over time, its effects ...

MACDONALD: Someone is Shilling for a Full-Time Legislature

Sat, 2026-05-30 21:00 +0000

One of the worst things you can do for liberty and human flourishing is to pay your legislature and give them benefits. It’s also not good for tax burden, business and job growth, regulation, education, health care costs, and the list goes on.

CARDELLO: It’s Frightening How Close Tim Walz Was…

Sat, 2026-05-30 16:00 +0000

Tim Walz should have stayed in the shadows. You heard very little about Tim during his 6 terms in the House of Representatives, primarily because of his lack of effectiveness. He sponsored one significant bill involving better care and suicide prevention for veterans, which was signed into law by Barack Obama in 2015. He became ... Read more
