Forgotten Role of the 10th Amendment in Its Creation

Mon, 2024-12-30 11:00 +0000
The Bill of Rights was born from intense battles between Federalists and Anti-Federalists over delegated and reserved powers. This clash not only shaped its contested origins but also left its true purpose misunderstood to this day. 1. Initial Efforts Rejected During the Philadelphia Convention on Sept. 12, 1787, George Mason proposed adding a declaration of ... Read more

Mon, 2024-12-30 03:00 +0000
It’s almost Inauguration Day 2025, and liberals are still proving they haven’t learned a single lesson from Donald Trump’s election victory in November.

The Problem Isn’t H1B…

Mon, 2024-12-30 01:00 +0000
I have been a high-tech worker since I taught myself programming back in the 1970’s after building a computer kit in the Navy. At that time, I was an electronics technician, maintaining and repairing communications and radar systems aboard ship. After reading articles in magazines about “microcomputers”, I decided to purchase one and see what ... Read more

Abolition and Libertarian Principles

Sun, 2024-12-29 23:00 +0000
In “Abolition: An Acid Test,” Murray Rothbard criticized libertarians who defended slavery as part of their defense of property rights. Those libertarians had argued that slaves were classified as property and, therefore, abolishing slavery would be tantamount to expropriation of the slaveowners’ property. This was indeed one of the arguments put forward by slaveowners who ... Read more

New England Is Burning Oil and Coal To Keep the Lights On

Sun, 2024-12-29 21:00 +0000
Eagle-eyed New England energy observer Meredith Angwin of Wilder pointed out an inconvenient fact on X this Monday: when it’s cold (like this week) and people are home more than usual (like this week), ‘green’ New England burns oil and coal to make electricity. “We are having our first real cold snap,” the author of Shorting ...

Republicans “would rather enact massive tax cuts for their billionaire donors than fund cancer research for children.”

Sun, 2024-12-29 21:00 +0000
The headline is a narrative the Democrats are running with, and it’s a total lie. Here’s Hakeem (bless you) Jeffries repeating the lie to enthusiastic members of their handmaiden media. Here’s Lizard Warren repeating the same Lie as the media eats it up without any context, question or challenge. I bring it up because this ... Read more

What’s Justice?

Sun, 2024-12-29 19:00 +0000
Mr. Biden has commuted 37 out of 40 federal death row inmates’ sentences to life imprisonment without parole.  This action is the result of Leftist efforts to target racial and economic disparities without stopping to ask: Does the punishment fit the crime?  It is racist and bigoted. Mr. Biden’s decision is clearly a “slap in ... Read more

Trump’s Critics Need Better ‘Writers’

Sun, 2024-12-29 15:00 +0000
One of the funniest lines ever uttered by a politician came from Ronald Reagan when he declared that he would not make the race between him and Walter Mondale about age; after all, it was not Mondale’s fault he was so young and inexperienced. Even Mondale had to laugh at the beautifully delivered jab. That ... Read more

Sun, 2024-12-29 03:00 +0000
At the end of every year, as we make our way through the holidays, you’ll hear no shortage of complaints about the rampant hyper-consumerism at the heart of modern American society.

Biden Renews Technology-Sharing Treaty with China

Sun, 2024-12-29 01:00 +0000
The Biden administration’s controversial renewal of the US-China Science & Technology Cooperation Agreement presents an awkward closing chapter for the president’s legacy. China has systematically stolen US trade secrets and technology, hacked into telecommunications networks, and spied on American military facilities using drones. Nevertheless, the Red Dragon is essentially being rewarded with a renewed information-sharing ... Read more

Not only did nobody vote for Bruce Reed, Steve Ricchetti, and Mike Donilon, and very few people even know who these people are, but they may have been in charge of the country for four years.

A Final Solution to the Bibi Problem.

Sat, 2024-12-28 21:00 +0000
If the war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu shows up at Auschwitz for the eightieth-anniversary commemoration where—to paraphrase Ilhan Omar, “Some people did something”—the Polish government may have him arrested for “war crimes.” This would be a foolish mistake. Simply invite Bibi for the ceremony but do not arrest him. Just detain him “for his own safety.” ... Read more

The modern approach to building social networks is to encourage people to network with the kind of people they would like to become. The aphorism goes something along the lines of You are the product of the six people you most commonly associate with. This may hold true, but it encourages an extreme classist society, where the ...

Dems Continue to Eat Their Own

Sat, 2024-12-28 13:00 +0000
The post-Kamala electoral flogging continues to reap rewards for the Republic. From pissing off white women and Hispanics to calling black men racist, the deep blue core can’t help but be the thing that cost them the election. They don’t know anything else. Resentment, anger, and accusations. It’s so much fun to watch, especially when ... Read more
