Did you watch the second GOP presidential primary debate the other day? I didn’t, but I understand that things got a bit heated between Nikki Haley and Ron DeSantis at one point. It was over the topic of energy independence, specifically DeSantis’ policies as governor of Florida. Haley accused DeSantis, saying, “Day Two [of your […]
Many topics were brought up in the House Judiciary Committee’s recent meeting featuring Attorney General Merrick Garland. Garland was there to give “sworn testimony”, but not too surprisingly much of it amounted to expressions of ignorance, forgetfulness, and evasion. The Daily Signal‘s Fred Lucas has provided seven takeaways, which I will give here in shortened […]
“There are costly damages associated with climate change. But there are also costly damages associated with climate policies. Too many politicians and the media focus only on the former.” — Bjorn Lomborg As I sometimes do, I’d like to share an excerpt or three from Hillsdale College’s Imprimis newsletter.

“The Church of Diversity waxes strong. All must be cleansed; all must be saved.” — Vivek Ramaswamy, Woke, Inc. As I have said before, Vivek Ramaswamy is not my first (or second, or third) choice among the GOP’s current presidential candidates. But, he is anti-woke, and I think he has some good ideas.

But, then this came up and, since it makes for a great sequel to last week’s post, I wanted to provide my own summary […]

You’ve all probably heard or read about the investigation(s) into Hunter Biden and his father, and a big part of that has to do with huge “consulting” fees and unpaid taxes. The […]
“[T]he rate of warming as measured by unperturbed surface stations, USCRN, and UAH does not represent a climate crisis.” — Corrupted Climate Stations: The Official U.S. Temperature Record Remains Fatally Flawed (2022) Have you ever wondered how the climate gurus calculate things like average surface temperatures and warming trends? Where do they get the data? […]
“One way or another, the time is now for Congress to do what’s needed to fix the FBI and end its trampling of Americans’ most precious civil liberties.” — Steven G.
