Medical journals and textbooks are clear that the only way to accurately determine the life-or-death impacts of medical treatments is by measuring “all-cause mortality” in “randomized controlled trials.” Clinical lingo aside, this is simply the number of deaths in studies where people are randomly assigned to receive or not receive a certain treatment. Though widely […]

Not that long ago, it was common for the hate-America-first crowd to say that our Mideast military adventures were “all about oil.” Oddly, we never actually saw that oil or benefited from greater black gold supplies until we ramped up our own domestic production. But now some are saying that Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine […]
As the world’s attention is focused on the Russia-Ukraine war, the Arabs are continuing to express fear about the possibility that the Biden administration and the world powers will revive the 2015 nuclear deal with Iran. The Arabs are warning that the appeasement of the extremist and terrorist regime in Tehran would allow Iran’s proxy […]

The Climate Hypocrites In January 2019, more than 600 left-leaning policy and climate organizations co-signed a letter to members of Congress under the headline “Legislation to Address the Urgent Threat of Climate Change.” Outlining their proposals demanding “renewable energy” and “100 percent decarbonization,” the letter pointedly singled out nuclear power as being “dirty energy” and said that […]

Editors’ Note: The following article is revealing and alarming. Describing the use of ‘behavioral science’ in the United Kingdom to control citizens’ actions during the Covid-19 pandemic, it is clear that these techniques used in Great Britain and elsewhere were operative in the United States from early 2020 to the present day. The daily use […]
Here in the United States, the average American is aghast at finding the United States on opposing sides to Russia in a massive conflict, while the Pentagon continues to underestimate Soviet nostalgia and lust for Ukraine – having assessed Putin as unlikely to embark on a full-scale invasion of Ukraine and instead more likely to […]

Editors’ Note: This article was written in 2014 and it is as instructive today as it was then. The author unfortunately recently passed away and is a considerable loss to the Conservative movement.

Last week, the Arizona House voted on a bill that would penalize businesses in the state that refuse to do business with firearms companies. The bill (HB 2473), proposed by state Representative Frank Carroll, R-Sun City, would require companies that sign contracts worth more than $100,000 with the state or local governments to agree that […]

The manner of the United States’ entrance into both World Wars should be a warning to us in how we respond to Ukraine. War, perhaps more than any other human endeavor, brings with it historical memories and comparisons. In its fog, discerning its significance and direction is intrinsically difficult. War’s entire domain, as it were, […]

Behind all the bad arguments against the Canadian Freedom Convoy, that they are Nazis or transphobes or whatever, is one good one: there was an election five months ago and they lost it. We can’t replace democracy with rule by whoever has the biggest trucks. Justin Trudeau made that argument yesterday defending his use of […]
