With exquisite timing, the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has seized the opportunity of Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine to warn of impending doom – not from Putin’s putting Russia’s nuclear forces on high alert, but from countries failing to reduce their carbon emissions. “Climate change is killing people,” said Helen Adams […]

For the better part of 70 years, the only advice the government offered to people under immediate threat of nuclear violence was “duck and cover.” Generations of schoolchildren were led to believe that if they just got under their desks fast enough, they might well survive to experience nuclear winter. Thankfully, we finally have an […]

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 […]
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 […]

Few spectacles in history rivaled that of a Roman triumphal procession.

Editors’ Note: We know Senator Rogers is quite passionate about election integrity, a project we support. We also know that the terms racist, white nationalist, and domestic terrorist are also thrown about with abandon. It seems that anyone who opposes the Left is a racist/white nationalist.
