America Runs on Diesel!

Estimated Reading Time: 2 minutes

Editors Note: When the President of the United States said he will shut down the fossil fuel industry, what do you think happens to capital flows for the industry? When the ESG movement said they will not fund the fossil fuel industry, what do you think happens to capital flows? Well, what happens is that […]

The Scam Called ESG

Estimated Reading Time: 3 minutes

What is this thing called ESG?  It stands for Environmental, Social, and Governance. Sounds great, doesn’t it? What could possibly be the harm of seeking to promote these virtues in our corporations? I mean, seriously, who doesn’t want companies that seek to emulate these values? I will be the first to admit that when I […]

Throw the Bums Out: You Have the Power

Estimated Reading Time: 3 minutes

Election Day is coming, a ceasing of the endless and despicable character assassination ads, the ‘misinformation’, and vile vitriol issued forth regarding the candidates. If you are to take them at face value then you will be left believing that Kari Lake is a fraud, an enemy of all women’s reproductive rights, an ’election denier’, […]

An Open Letter to Senator Sinema

Estimated Reading Time: 2 minutes

Words cannot express my disappointment in your vote on the completely mis-labeled Inflation Reduction Act that was recently voted on. The nation’s inflation rate has never been effectively reduced by spending another pile of tax-payer money that has yet to be collected. In the words of Milton Friedman: “Inflation is always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon […]

Blind Justice

Estimated Reading Time: 5 minutes

The founding of the United States and its Constitutional government is predicated on three separate yet co-equal branches: Executive, Legislative and Judicial. The executive branch is inherently political and always will be, it is the seat of power vested in one individual, our elected president. The legislative branch is political, however slightly less so as […]

A House Divided – An Open Letter to a Democrat

Estimated Reading Time: 5 minutes

We are a nation divided today: split into political divisions, Democrat, Republican, Socialist, Progressive; into racial divisions: black, white, Asian, Hispanic; into cultural and sexual divisions: straight, gay, lesbian, transexual, etc. Our entire country’s fabric is being torn asunder as these separate ‘tribes’ are set against one another. In Chapter 3 of the Gospel of Mark (verses […]

There is Nothing Common-Sense About Some of These Gun Proposals

Estimated Reading Time: 5 minutes

Who would oppose ‘common-sense gun laws that are designed to prevent tragedies as we saw in Uvalde Texas recently? Who sees a violent slaughter like that and is unmoved to do something to prevent further attacks?  Emotionally and rationally, there is not a single person in this country that wouldn’t do almost anything to prevent another […]

What Memorial Day is Really About

Estimated Reading Time: 3 minutes

Today is Memorial Day, a day that many think of as just another three-day weekend, yet I encourage every American to take a moment to remember the reason for this day. Today we remember the more than 1.3 million service members that paid the ultimate sacrifice, laying down their lives, in defense of our country […]

WHO, WEF, SDG, JRB…WTF

Estimated Reading Time: 3 minutes

This summer, the elites of the World Economic Forum (WEF) will convene in Davos Switzerland for Klaus Schwab’s annual confab of the Lear jet set. Part of this meeting is to ratify and endorse the World Health Organization’s (WHO) latest draft of the International Health Regulations (IHR). This treaty has had virtually no coverage and […]

An Open Letter to Senator Shope

Estimated Reading Time: 2 minutes

Editors’ Note:  The state Senator who voted to stop Arizona from passing legislation against vaccine passports is hearing from citizens. Our position is that the decision to vaccinate is a decision to be made by the individual citizen and his or her’s medical advisor. I am a conservative member of the GOP and have been for […]
