American Exceptionalism is real. It created the greatest economic engine in history, and on the way it also created a flat society, in which movement from the lowest levels to the highest can happen in the blink of an eye. America has created wealth where once there was none, and no hope for any. America…

The Morning Report 12/31/20
Good morning, kids. Thursday and New Year’s Eve. Normally this is a time of promise for new beginnings and hope, but given what we’ve been through and what we’ve experienced, I’m dreading what lies ahead. It’s hard to believe that less than a year ago, our economy was booming, China, Iran and their surrogates in…

Good morning, kids. Wednesday and the penultimate day of 2020, which may very well go down in history as “Year Zero” depending upon what happens a week from now in Congress. More on that in a moment, but on the continuing idiocy of the kabuki/bukkake theater that is that body, Mitch McConnell has pulled one…
The Morning Rant
This is a textbook example of the corruption of the Deep StateTM and the unholy alliance between corporate America and government. In a sane world this sort of glaringly obvious sale of influence would be laughed out of existence, or would land someone in prison. But the tentacles of this vile beast extend everywhere, and…

Good morning, kids. Tuesday and in the lead, the House has moved on two major bills. First, it voted to raise the Chinese COVID payment to President Trump’s level of $2,000 per person and second, it overrode a Trump veto of the Defense Bill. With the former, a majority of Republicans voted against the increase…

Good morning, kids. Monday and as we tick off the final days of this accursed year (thanks entirely to the Left both here and abroad) the top story is the Christmas day suicide truck bomb that while causing much property damage in downtown Nashville, mercifully only took the life of the perpetrator. Anthony Q. Warner, 63,…

Good morning, kids. The weekend is here as is Christmas day. It certainly is a Christmas like no other that I can remember. As the song goes, “you don’t know what you’ve got ’til it’s gone.” The naked evil inflicted upon us this past year has stripped us of our rights, our dignity, and our…

Good morning, kids. Thursday and it’s Christmas Eve. I’ll try to keep it brief and do some Ace-style “quick hits” but knowing me, I’m sure I’ll be rambling once I find my mojo. Along with the continued fallout over the President’s ripping the 5,500 page looting of the Treasury disguised as a Chinese COVID relief…
The Morning Report 12/23/20
ood morning, kids. It’s amazing that even in the face of a stolen election, where the odds of the President having his rightful victory restored are fading fast, the nation doused with gasoline and the propagandist media playing with matches, the Enemy still manages to shoot itself in the face. Despite the suffering and dislocation…
The Morning Rant
There are economists who claim that deficit spending by our government is immune from the economic principles that govern all other financial transactions; that deficit spending by government is neutral, and even beneficial. Certainly in the short term, such as during war, increasing the debt is a necessary evil. But as debt increases faster than…
