Biden and Parliament’s 1689 Declaration of Rights
It’s surprising how closely certain aspects of modern Democrat rule parallel the British Parliament’s grievances with James II in 1689. In 1688, England had its Glorious Revolution, which was glorious because Parliament kicked out King James II without firing a shot. It then invited William III and Mary (James’s daughter)

Could anti-Semitism have had anything to do with this
A brutal, cold-blooded attack on an elderly Good Samaritan may have resulted from stone-cold psychopathy but was there an anti-Semitic angle? Over at Gateway Pundit, I saw a post about a horrific attack against a good Samaritan: Jason Jones, a 72-year-old Missouri man pulled over to help a couple that

Lindsey Graham’s talk about the current Israeli-Arab conflict
Lindsey Graham strongly supports Israel and is proud to say it out loud. Kudos to him for doing so! On Wednesday, I had the opportunity to hear Sen. Lindsey Graham when he spoke to a packed auditorium at the beautiful Chabad of Charleston, South Carolina. It was refreshing to hear

If everyone did this, life would return to normal instantly
I don’t know anything about Nicki Schreiner other than this video, but she should be a role model for every liberty-loving person in America. By the way, given the camera angle, this might have been a set-up. However, on her TikTok page, where this gal posted the video, she said

The Democrats are preempting the possibility of an armed rebellion
The nature of the modern military and Democrat trends in staffing the military make an armed rebellion impossible. I sometimes see people on the internet claiming that if the Democrats push conservatives too far – anything from banning meat to erasing the Second Amendment to publicly hanging the people who

Stuff to help understand Israel right now
This post is a grab bag of stuff — articles, memes, informative posts — regarding what’s happening in Israel. Bari Weiss: It appears that standing up for the right of innocent people to protect themselves from a genocidal terrorist organization has become extremely risky to one’s “brand.” And so lies

War in Israel and my old Volkswagen
The latest war between Israel and Hamas again raises an important question: Is this the war that Israel will finally fight to win? When I started college, I bought a used Volkswagen at a very good price from the widow of a family friend. It had been her husband’s car

A slo-mo anti-mask rebellion
I’m not the fiery rebellious type but, today, we mounted a quiet mask rebellion and — hot damn! — it felt wonderful. I live in the Southeastern corridor that’s been affected by the ransomware attack on Colonial Pipeline. And yes, I do think it was a real ransomware attack, not

Battles over AIDS privacy should block vaccine passports
AIDS was a very scary disease in the 1980s but gays successfully fought to keep their status private. The same reasoning should apply to COVID vaccinations. It’s entirely possible that I am completely misremembering my 1980s and 1990s history, but I don’t think I am. If I’m correct about it,

[VIDEO] A song that pretty much sums it all up
Before five minutes ago, I’d never heard of Five Times August, aka Bradley James Skistimas of Dallas. Now I have to share his music. It’s not just that the lyrics are smart, his singing voice good, and the melody strong. It’s also that Skistimas has assembled the perfect images to
