It is important to separate the science and biomedical research behind the Wuhan Flu (Covid-19) vaccine from the political ramifications of its use. I am confident of the research that went into it, I am confident of the studies supporting its safety and efficacy, and I am probably going to get it…eventually. I think most…

The Morning Rant
After the obscene travesty of a stolen election and the craven and cowardly behavior of so many of our representatives, President Trump promised an “orderly transition” of power. Even though I totally disagree with the outcome of the election, and the facts bear me out, nevertheless there will be an orderly transition on January 20th….

Vote. Do your options stink? Absolutely! I am second to none in my disdain for the machine Republicans on the ballot in Georgia. They are craven opportunists without a shred of integrity or a coherent political philosophy. Vote anyway. Yes, the possibility that the senate, led by the swamp creature formerly known as Mitch McConnell…
“Arbeit Macht Frei,” And Other Sayings In Cuomo’s Little Red Book
Think back almost 30 years, when AIDS was a new and terrifying disease. Had we treated it as a highly infectious disease and used the then current laws, it is entirely possible that we could have reduced the death toll, and drastically reduced its terrible effects on hemophiliacs and surgical patients. But politics trumps all,…
“Angry And Ignorant Is No Way To Go Through Life,” Said Nobody On The Left
The inarticulate fury of the foot soldiers of the left has been well documented. Sputtering-mad fools driving themselves into lamp posts, or jabbering incoherently for painfully embarrassing minutes in social media posts, or the idiotic messages spray-painted on buildings and barricades. Or even the more personal signs of anger: ridiculous haircuts and mutilating piercings and…

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…

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…

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…
LBJ And His Foul Great Society Slithers Its Tentacles Into College Football
This is from the always intriguing Jason Whitlock, who clearly has no idea that he is violating every cultural norm of the Left by actually thinking for himself and rejecting the narrative that it is all Whitey’s fault. Commenter “Satrose” sent this to me yesterday and I read it with great interest. I’m not so…
The Morning Rant
As usual, J.J. Sefton beat me to this excellent article, but its message is worth repeating. The Left, with its slavish adherence to dogma, and its acolytes willing to be foot soldiers in its war against the West, has systematically overrun the institutions that made America great and unique, and any change, even if possible,…
