Good morning, kids. Start of a new week and I’ve been thinking about a painting done by World War 2 artist/illustrator Tom Lea. Though best known for his work “The Two Thousand-Yard Stare,” it’s an equally haunting work he created during the battle for Pelelieu, which coincidentally was in its opening phase 77 years ago, that I…

Good morning, kids. The weekend is here and a quick survey of the links fills me with both a sense of dread and believe it or not, one of hope. For sure we are heading at “warp speed” (pun intended) for catastrophe. At this point, with the Afghanistan bug-out disaster disappearing from the headlines (undeservedly…

Good morning, kids. Thursday and the law of totalitarian physics is certainly in evidence. To wit, the more ruin the Left inflicts and the more it is rejected, the louder and more vituperative the vitriol hurled back at us, and the tighter the screws are turned. At the risk of mixing metaphors, only two things…

Good morning, kids. Yesterday, while riding a bus out in the hinterlands of Staten Island, feeling a bit disconnected from the current multiple insanities engulfing the world, I clicked over to the HQ and was stunned by the news of Angelo Codevilla being struck and killed in some sort of traffic accident. It’s even more…

Good morning, kids. Tuesday and first up, a clarification. The headline for yesterday’s post, “#HaitiHasNoHomeHere” came from the fertile mind of commenter “Joe Biden,” not me. Apologies for not giving proper credit with the post. Now on to the meshugas and dissolution at hand. Well, our borders have been erased and we’re being flooded with…

Good morning, kids. Start of a new week and the autumnal equinox. As usual, there are a number of things popping all at once, each in its own right that under normal circumstances would be major news, so it’s difficult to try to zero in on just one thing. That said, the catastrophe at our…

Good morning, kids. The weekend is here and the virtually constant conflagrations from multiple crises since demented Siren Head Joey Bivalve was installed in the Oval Office continue to rage out of control. Most notably, the southern border is out of control, Vanilli Milley struts, preens and gloats instead of begs and pleads for his miserable life,…

Good morning, kids. Today is Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement. Wishing an easy fast for my fellow Tribesman. So, in the face of our top military leader admitting to treason on top of aiding and abetting a criminal and now clearly mentally impaired commander-in-chief commit the greatest strategic blunder (arguably intentionally) in history, the…

Good morning, kids. Wednesday and a quote attributed to the great 18th century British writer Samuel Johnson comes to mind in the wake of Gavin Newsom’s recall. Upon hearing of a widower about to be remarried soon after the death of his first wife to whom he had been unhappily wed, Johnson remarked that it…

Good morning, kids. Tuesday and I suppose the big story is today’s California recall election in which a majority of citizens will once again have their votes stolen and Gavin Newsom, the sleazy, pompous, brilliantine criminal dictator of what is arguably now a third world Latin American banana republic will more than likely retain his…
