Is It Drought Season Yet?

Sun, 2025-03-30 12:00 +0000
You’ll get different answers depending on who you ask. I’m referring to the two-season jokes: winter and Construction, winter and bugs, Pumpkin Spice and everything else. I’m sure I’ve missed a few, but drought season is one of my favorite topics. I don’t like droughts, but my town has been acting like we’ve been in ... Read more

Expanding Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) I personally believe strongly in private property rights, I live on 34 acres with the closest house ¼ mile away for a reason, love my privacy.

The Activist Judges Who Think They Outrank the President

Sun, 2025-03-30 02:00 +0000
The American system was founded on a simple idea: three branches of government, each with its distinct role. The president executes the law, Congress creates it, and the judiciary interprets it. However, at some point, activist judges became more than just referees; they began seeing themselves as emperors, wielding gavels like scepters and rewriting the ... Read more

It’s Time To Brush It All Aside And Look Inside

Sat, 2025-03-29 22:00 +0000
I had three other articles started for today. I began with the insanity of Rachel Maddow, then the behavior of the Democrat senators in the Intel Committee hearing, and finally, the Democrat members of Congress in their Intel hearing.

The Authoritarian War on Due Process

Sat, 2025-03-29 20:00 +0000
I can say without much reservation that Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s explanation to justify the deportation of individuals like Mahmoud Khalil made a lot of sense to me. He is a guest granted a privilege, that – had we known his intentions prior – may not have been allowed into the country. It is ... Read more

Lest We Forget: The Dems ‘Oligarchs’ Got Us Into This Mess

Sat, 2025-03-29 16:00 +0000
The progs have settled on a strategy. Ignore the Left-Wing Oligarchy that ran Biden’s Presidency, and your country, into the ground. Oligarchs. The Oligarchy. That’s their Trump Card. But are they prepared to answer the questions only new media will dare broach? Who set policy for the Biden presidency? It was probably a panel of ... Read more

The Judging of “Judgy” Judges

Sat, 2025-03-29 12:00 +0000
There are likely more than two sides to this particular debate, but we’ll stick to these to keep things in focus. First, President Trump is out of hand with all the executive orders, and thank god for district court judges (almost always a small g with these folks – the Big G is for Government). ... Read more

On March 25, 2025, Speaker Mike Johnson took to X to deliver a scathing rebuke of the Democrat Party: “Democrats cheered against an American company.

Their message has shifted from being anti-Trump to anti-American.” Standing before a podium emblazoned ... Read more

Their comments about you are totally out of line because you voted your conscience, principles, and ... Read more
