The Mad Mullahs of the Iranian Revolution fooled the West with their rhetoric, then promptly became the biggest supporter of Islamic terror across the globe. 45 years later they are still playing their long game, which is nothing more than lying to get what they want. Lying is like breathing to them, and there are…

The Morning Rant: “Abundance Agenda?”
There is a lazy and ignorant assumption made by most media about the proper function of government, and more importantly…that there are no limits on those functions. Any discussion of government assumes axiomatically that large government controlling most aspects of life is an unalloyed good. The discussion then centers around policy differences between one faction…
The Morning Rant: Ukraine…Again?
The Ukraine war seems like a throwback to the brutal battles of World War I, where advances in the lethality of weaponry weren’t matched by advances in tactics to avoid massive casualties without concomitant gains. But it is also clear that Russia’s advantage in men and arms is slowly grinding Ukraine down. It is a…
The Correct Minimum Wage Is $0/hr, And Anything Else Distorts The Labor Market Apparently The Los Angeles City Council Never Studied Economics!
Obviously that is a theoretical minimum wage. Nobody who isn’t a toddler is going to work for less than some wage well above $0, but that number is far below the legal minimum wage that the socialist lunatics of Los Angeles are getting ready to mandate for hotel and airport workers. Los Angeles City Council…
The Morning Rant: Open Season On Jews And Israel
It’s open season on Jews and Israel, and many in the oh-so-enlightened West are perfectly content to tolerate a second Holocaust if that’s what it takes to pacify the terrorists in their midst. Canada, the UK, and France, the three biggest failures in the defense of Western culture and freedom, have hilariously attacked Israel’s conduct…
The Morning Rant: Nobility In America?
A long time ago, we fought a war against the British Empire, in part because the people of the American colonies were increasingly offended by the idea of royalty, and the unearned privileges that emanate from that concept. We even specified in our overarching legal document that nobility was not to be tolerated! From Article…
The Morning Rant: Oil…It Does A Body Good!
The world runs on oil, and no amount of wishcasting or unicorn-fueled nonsense will change that until we and others build many hundreds of nuclear power plants, completely revamp the electricity transmission systems, and make a titanic shift away from natural-gas and propane-powered homes and industry. Can we do it? Sure! It will take 50…
Don’t We Have More Important Things Going On? Stop The Nanny State Bullsh*t!
I like Youngkin. I think he is a good governor, and he certainly would make an interesting candidate for national office. But this sort of arrant nonsense makes me think he is far less serious than I had assumed and hoped. GOP Gov Signs Law That Would Set Daily Time Limit For Kids On Social…
The Morning Rant
Well. THAT was quick! Reality is a stone-cold b*tch, and the stark reality of the Canadian economy is that it is almost completely reliant on America. Posturing about independence and reorienting Canuckistan’s economy away from the United States and toward the EU and South America and the Pacific rim and blah, blah, blah sounds good…
The Morning Rant
It’s fun to make fun of Canada. They are an odd people living in an odd country, and any culture that elevates Poutine to high cuisine cannot be taken seriously. Besides, their bacon…isn’t. But they also live in North America, and is it tempting to assume that they hold dear many of the things that…
