Winsome Earle-Sears is the current Lieutenant Governor of Virginia, and is the Republican candidate for Governor in the 2025 election. She is an impressively normal woman, although she is a Marine, so that gets her some extra points! She raised a family, wrote a book, ran for office, served her state honorably, and is in…

It is a very interesting Constitutional question; what are the limits of federal control over state behavior. And as much as I want the sanctuary states (and cities) to be crushed by the federal leviathan, if the boot were on the other foot, for instance a state’s refusal to abide by the NFA, I would…

Pax Americana has been so thoroughly discredited that I am amazed that there are presumably sentient humans who still believe that we can be the world’s policeman without any downsides. We carried NATO for its entire existence, and gave the Euro-trash a perfect excuse to spend their money on welfare rather than defense. So the…

India buys lots of Russian oil, and Russia uses that income to fund its war in Ukraine. They now buy about 1,750,000 barrels/day (up sharply since the Ukraine war began), and that is a lot of income for Russia, even assuming a discount and falling oil prices. Supposedly they resell some of it and profit…

In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) is an amazing technological feat, one that has brought the joy of parenthood to many people who could not otherwise become parents. IVF and the related techniques have revolutionized fertilization, and has driven basic and applied research to new heights. It has also demanded an examination of the morality and philosophy…

Muslims are busily murdering Christians throughout Africa and the Middle East, and in almost every Muslim country they are a persecuted minority. Notice I didn’t mention Jews in Muslim countries! They have already been driven out, and while there are scattered and tiny Jewish communities in some Muslim countries, the vast majority were expelled, especially…

The disconnect between the Democrat party’s platform and the will of many Americans is nowhere more clear than in the debate about transsexual lunacy and its expansion into the formerly axiomatic definition of Man and Woman. Add in their psychotic fixation on the chemical and surgical mutilation of children, and we have a clear vision…

The primary function of the corporation is to enhance shareholder value. Expecting anything more from them is a recipe for disappointment, for either the shareholders or the larger culture, or both. Do I want American corporations to be patriotic and act in the best interests of the country and its citizens? Sure! That sounds great…

The idea of America as the world’s policeman has been discredited, as our efforts since World War II often have been ham-handed, ineffectual, hugely expensive in blood and treasure, and have become a conduit for massive graft across the globe. Should we have invaded Iraq and Afghanistan after September 11th? In hindsight….no. We should have…

Their foul paws were in everything, from child mutilation disguised as medical care; to payoffs to their political cronies; to multi-billion dollar boondoggles in “green energy; to the destruction of our border defenses; to making the armed forces an LGBTQ+ lunatic asylum; to the weaponization of our legal system; to the evisceration of the Constitution,…
