Good morning kids, As I have said many times and as is clearly demonstrated by today’s links across several categories, they want us dead or otherwise disposed of. As Rush Limbaugh of blessed memory would say, in a more anodyne but no less accurate way, it’s not that they want to level the playing field,…
Good morning kids, Of course the big story is the massive flooding in Texas that so far has claimed the lives of some 70 people, including 5 children from a Christian summer camp, and with search and rescue operations still ongoing, the death toll is likely to rise. For all of you and your loved…
Good morning kids, and let me wish all of you a happy Independence Day and God bless America on its 249th birthday. Of course the top story of the day is the passage of this so-called Big Beautiful Bill by the House. And President Trump is set to sign it into law some time today….
The problem with civilian oversight of our armed forces is that a fair amount of the oversight occurs in the United States Congress, and as we have seen over the past several weeks, they are a bunch of sleazy, brazenly corrupt, ignorant functionaries who have lost sight of the important work with which they have…

American Exceptionalism! What a grand and glorious thing…driven by (among other things) the self selection of exactly who comes here. Until fairly recently it was incredibly difficult just to arrive on our shores. Weeks or months-long voyages with no guarantee that one would survive the trip, only to arrive in America and have to fend…
Good morning kids. Evidently some severe thunderstorms really fouled up air travel at key airports up and down the east coast yesterday, well into the evening. So, given the spate of air incidents earlier this year on top of what I imagine standard operating procedures for air traffic control in the event of severe weather might…
Good morning kids. And just like that, the year 2025 is just about half over. The breaking news this morning is either the twisted act of just some random psychopath or given everything going on in the world, and sadly here at home perhaps some form of domestic terrorism. Eco-, Immigration-, Islamic- or some kind…
