There’s a weird feeling in the air that doom and despair are about to collide with optimism and hope. It’s a collision that could determine whether the United States survives, and for how long. Four recent events have intensified my feeling that a profound shift is coming to America. The first event was the sudden […]

Having learned to type on a manual typewriter in high school, it never occurred to me that it would someday become obsolete. But when the IBM Selectric typewriter was introduced in 1961, that’s exactly what happened. Comparing the Selectric to, say, a Royal manual typewriter was like comparing a Rolls-Royce to a Model T Ford. […]

Watching the sagas of incapacitated Dems like Sleepy Joe, Diane Feinstein, and John Fetterman unfold, even died-in-the-wool party loyalists are becoming concerned. With Democrats now the party of wokesters and jokesters, one wonders how it can survive, let alone stay in power.

Prior to last weekend, I had not watched any of Donald Trump’s rallies since he left office, mainly because they were all pretty much the same. Also, it was too painful to listen to him lash out at people who were not worthy of his acknowledgement. That said, I decided to tune into his rally […]

When it comes to government scams, the banking crisis is once again the topic du jour worldwide, but most of the talk surrounding it is frivolous. Anyone with even a layman’s knowledge of finance realizes that the U.S. banking system is unsound and, technically speaking, has been unsound at least since President Nixon finished the […]

Even people who are basically honest lie now and then, often for no other reason than they don’t want to hurt someone’s feelings. But in the world of politics, lying has long been an art form. The mental dwarfs in D.C. have come a long way since George Washington admitted to his father that he […]

We’ve heard a lot over the years about a possible secession of red states from America, and the idea is back in vogue with Marjorie Taylor Greene calling for a “national divorce.” It’s a drastic measure that appeals to those who believe we’ve passed the last checkpoint for stemming the decline of the American Empire.
