Legislators may campaign as true conservatives but once elected they usually drift towards the establishment deep state. Surprisingly the reason is psychological. The 1984 Olympics were in town and my brother had Olympic soccer match tickets at the Stanford Stadium. Having “attend an Olympic event” on my bucket list, I enthusiastically accepted the invitation. The […]
“There are none so blind as those that will not see.” John Heywood The Democrats have devolved into an irrational gang of dissidents promoting anti-American policies. Democrats have gone from mandating electric cars to setting them on fire; from advocating for the poor to enabling criminals that exploit the poor, from the party of peace […]
“It is not a criminal violation to enter the country illegally. It’s not. It’s not criminal. It’s not a crime. It’s not a crime.” Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas The Democrat party is in such bad shape that many Democrats don’t want to identify as Democrats anymore. Democrat leadership is acting out in strange and desperate […]
Wisdom is the thing you get right after you need it. At the recent Kootenai County Republican Town Hall, we got played. Agitators successfully manipulated the situation to fit their narrative. Looking back, it’s clear it was a planned, practiced, and coordinated effort. President Trump posted: “Paid ‘troublemakers’ are attending Republican Town Hall Meetings. It’s […]
“So what do we do if someone is unruly and interrupts the meeting?” “Ask them to be quiet.” “What if they won’t be quiet?” “Take a recess to deescalate the situation.” “What if they continue after the recess?” “Reschedule the meeting for another time.” “Would you remove a person disturbing the peace?” “Under no circumstances […]
Can a rogue judge stop a President from doing his job? Early during the first Trump administration, Sean Spicer was the Press Secretary and was also appointed by the president to a three-year term on the Board of Visitors for the Naval Academy. When the Biden Administration took over, they sent Spicer a letter inviting […]
We are on the cusp of either a Golden Age or ruin. Will we have the judgement and fortitude to make the right decisions? There is nothing in human experience that prepares us for the scale of a trillion. It may be intellectually comprehensible but we have no innate sense for how big a trillion […]
Some people are concerned or even panicked about President Trump imposing tariffs on the products of other countries. Progressive economists and world government proponents have loudly opined that tariffs are the destructive option that will harm us more than “them.” In reality there is little cause for concern. Free trade is almost magical. Imagine there […]
The Trump victory has resulted in a seismic shift in the direction of the country. Domestic, regional, international and economic policies have taken a new direction for the better. Trump has accomplished more in the first 100 hours of his administration than other presidents accomplish in their first 100 days. The reason for this competency […]
January 20th 2025 was one of the best days for Republicans, and the country, in a long time. We now have an actual president, not a titular sock puppet that signs Executive Orders without knowing what they are about. We have a president that can converse freely and unscripted with the press while demonstrating his […]
Now more than ever we need to innovate to survive. The Artificial Intelligence Pandora’s Box has been opened. We will have practical humanoid robots by the end of the decade. High minimum wages are incentivizing automation in the service and manufacturing sectors. The number of instances where people can work remotely has skyrocketed. The world’s […]
