It doesn’t matter to the left how they ban guns. They will go after them with onerous purchase regulations. They will try to confiscate them using “Red Flag” laws. They will increase costs with ridiculous registration and purchase fees, and increased fees levied against retailers. They will restrict the right to carry weapons for self-protection…

The pleasure of seeing Lebron James, a pompous, entitled, smug, illiterate roundball player being pilloried for his arrogance in thinking that his money and face was sufficient to create some sort of little Harvard on the Cuyahoga is delicious. But this miserable situation exposes the horrendous state of American education, and proves that the mantra…

This lunacy is a glimpse into the chaotic fever dreams of the academic no-nothing desperate to publish, an AWFL (affluent, white, female, liberal), and a media frantically covering for their illogical, ahistorical blather. There is no difference between trying to pretend to be the opposite sex (there are two of them, no matter what these…

I grew up in a home in which vaccination was the norm. My grandfather was involved in pediatric vaccine research, and my father was a physician specializing in infectious diseases, so it was axiomatic that vaccines were one of the wonders of the modern world, and resistance to them that wasn’t based on solid epidemiological…

The idea of equality of opportunity used to be axiomatic, but that has fallen out of favor in certain fascist-curious circles (read: The Democrat Party), and has been replaced with a curious hodgepodge of confiscatory taxes, business-crushing regulation that emphasizes rent-seeking behavior, and a fascination with the impossible — equality of result. Although to be…

Lovely…A Russian plane attacks one of our drones, and our response is the equivalent of a strongly-worded letter. And that isn’t even the only attack! The Russians are playing hardball, and we are pretending that all is well, that the traditional pushing and probing of two super powers is just fine. But it isn’t. We…

I was cautiously optimistic that the new Speaker of The House, Mrs. Frank Luntz, would be more aggressive, and perhaps take a few steps toward actual conservatism, instead of being a GOPe shill for The US Chamber of Commerce. Why would I think that? Well, there was considerable pressure put on him by some actual…

Oh look! Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) claims that “… injunction on mandatory “storybooks” with sex workers, kink, drag, gender transitions would cause “significant disruption,” stigmatize children, violate federal law.” Even though Maryland law says that parents can opt out for any reason. And I recall some old and musty document from more than 100…

Oscar Wilde may or may not have said this, but it seems apropos to say that one would need a heart of stone not to laugh at the predicament of the good people of Alameda County, California! That’s Berkeley and Oakland and a bunch of unfortunately located communities that are nonetheless on the left side…

An honest appraisal of the state of America and the West yields a discouraging — even a depressing — answer. The glory of Western culture, with its technological, artistic, and social brilliance is being subsumed by a chaotic and narcissistic world-view, coupled with the profoundly anti-human authoritarianism of the left that is gleefully using that…
