Rumpists vs Trumpists

A “rump state” is the remnant of a much larger political power that has lost power and territory. It is usually replaced by another political entity that only allows the “rump” political entity a titular or ceremonial presence. Such a presence is usually conditioned on terms of appeasement and explicit cooperation in exchange for nominal […]

Kamala’s Interview vs Trump’s new Alliance with RFK

It appears that Kamala is in over her head and can’t make up her mind what she is for and what she is against. She is a bit like Joey Biden only Joe has changed his mind so many times that his mind finally gave up and stopped working. This seems to be a problem […]

Run Toward Danger

The focus on almost everyone across the nation including Idaho is on the November Presidential and down ballot elections that are less than 80 days away. Concerns about election fraud and malfeasance in the collection and counting of ballots are in my opinion real and are of great concern. There is no question in my […]

Truth or Consequences

I would like to take this opportunity today to talk about Choices as we are now 86 days from the presidential election. I believe it is becoming more obvious to those who voted for Joe Biden in 2020 that they made a huge mistake and have been suffering the consequences for the past 3 ½ […]

Assassination Attempt – Lots of Questions, Too Few Answers

We would like to hear your opinion! I’m sure there are shooting enthusiasts who are much smarter than me when it comes to this subject matter, but after seeing this video, I have to ask the question, was there another shooter? I would ask those of you who have an opportunity to view this video […]

Lather, Rinse, Repeat

“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.” George Orwell, 1984 Most of the country is brainwashed and about half are severely brainwashed to the extent that they no longer operate in reality. Of course, YOU are not brainwashed…or are you? How could […]

The True Republican/Trump Agenda

Shortly after President Donald Trump left office in 2021, representatives of various conservative think tanks drafted a list of priorities for the next Republican administration. They called it “Project 2025” because that is when a new Republican president will be inaugurated. Think tanks routinely engage in this kind of planning. While politicians focus on campaigning, […]

Is Trump being “GOLDWATERED”?

I had a front row seat to the Presidential Election of 1964 between Senator Barry Goldwater of Arizona and Lyndon Johnson who became President after John Kennedy was assassinated. My father gave up his business for a year and ran Mr. Goldwater’s campaign in Ohio. Ohio was at the epicenter of that campaign, until the […]

Republicans Represent the People

Were you surprised by President Joe Biden’s announcement that he would not be running for reelection? I know many people expected something like that, yet it was strange to see it happen in real time. After his disastrous performance in last month’s debate with Donald Trump, many prominent Democrats began calling for Biden to step […]

Democratic Lawfare Alive and Well in Wisconsin

The Soldier’s Creed is “Never leave a fallen comrade.” The Democrat Party’s lawfare against President Donald J. Trump was unjust, anti-democratic, and obvious election interference. But President Trump had the means to defend himself. However, Trump was not the only target. Following the 2020 election, lawyers were recruited to challenge the election results in the […]

There are no Heroes

In every culture there are heroes. In almost every instance the purpose of a “god” or a “Saint”, a great warrior or a devil is to set some sort of a standard—good or bad. At a very young age we learn about the virtues, the evils, the accomplishments and shortcomings of heroes. At a later […]

Don’t Have Blind Faith

If there were ever a time that Americans needed to put on their critical thinking hats, that time is now, more than ever. As much as Biden is loathed for the damage he has wrought onto America, it pales in comparison to what could be coming with former president Trump. It is not a time […]
