No More Humbugs by the Left

As Ebenezer Scrooge said in Charles Dickens Novel “A Christmas Carol” HUMBUG defined in Webster’s dictionary as something designed to deceive or mislead, often referring to a person who is insincere or fraudulent.

What is the Cost of Illegal Immigration?

As we hear the cry from many Americans about how unaffordable America is, we need to ask ourselves how this came about.

Authoritarian My Butt: Stop Your Complaining

Trump is going to the root causes of the progressive power and they are scared to death that he will be successful in his efforts to turn the clock back and make Americans aware of just how the left, with the assistance of their media moguls, have divided our country. We hear the cry from […]

The Blame Game

If you’re not part of the solution, you are more than likely part of the problem, and certainly that is the junction that we are at today. I can’t remember a time in the 80 years I have been on this earth where there has been more discourse in America. Last week, I wrote about […]

Is our Education System the Cause of Today’s Left/Right Crisis?

While I don’t often think much about conspiracy theories, I believe that this Left/Right rift is becoming more violent by the day.

As we all complain about the Government shutdown, I often wonder how many people actually understand why it is shut down. The answer is simply, “It’s the democrats being stupid again.” There are only a handful of presidents who have actually had ideas that have propelled our country in the right direction, and the two […]

It’s Cool to be Christian Again

Thank you, Charlie Kirk I have written many articles on the decline of Christianity and the consistent drop in church attendance since the 1960s, but today I get an opportunity to tell our readers that “Christ is Back”.

Education is the Key to Success

Everyone seems to have their own definition of fascism, but trying to define fascism is like trying to nail jelly to a wall: Just like everyone has their own definition of Communism and Socialism, we appear to be in a name-calling contest in America, but no one has a clue as to what most of […]

Did Governor Little violate the Constitution during Covid?

It has been 5 years since I wrote extensively about how the Covid-19 EUA vaccine was a potential danger because of the limited testing yet it was hailed as the only thing that would stop the proliferation of the Covid-19 virus.
