If you were to take a guess, where would Florida and Texas rank, in terms of their response to Covid? Would they be in the upper third, middle, or lower third? The answer is the middle third. Since the outset of the pandemic, 1 out of every 540 people in Florida has been killed by […]

“I believe in science, Donald Trump doesn’t. It’s that simple, folks“, Joe Biden tweeted during the 2020 election campaign. Even by Biden standards, that was a deceitful remark. Not only did his opponent spearhead the unexpectedly efficient development of the Covid vaccine, which has been the cornerstone of pandemic suppression ever since, but the Biden […]

With the advent of the Covid-19 Delta Variant, there has been an explosion of demands for people getting vaccinations. Private companies are imposing rules for their employees which are perfectly legal. But the government solutions to this problem are typical of government solutions – insipid and nuts and punish the wrong people. I am forced […]
Republicans are still, by and large, allowing their own voters to be purged from employment and schooling based on their evidence-informed convictions that oppose reality-defying leftist groupthink. Myriad Republican lawmakers are standing idly by, letting their voters be threatened with not being able to support their families or access education due to their medical and […]
