President Trump was impeached because his opponents said he asked the Ukrainian president to investigate his political rival. Last summer I asked: trump-raid-demonstrates-we-live-in-a-banana-republic why is the Biden administration taking steps to poke into the affairs of the man who has openly said he is going to run in 2024? Is the charge of investigating opponentsContinue reading “Justice American Style”

Presidential Election 2024: The Good, the Crooked, the Dull and Boring
The first-in-the-nation 2024 Iowa caucus is a little more than seven months away. New Hampshire, Nevada, and South Carolina vote next before Super Tuesday on March 5. Currently, there are just three Democratic candidates, an octogenarian who has held political office since his 30th birthday (President Biden) and two septuagenarians who have never held office:Continue reading “Presidential Election 2024: The Good, the Crooked, the Dull and Boring”
COVID Retrospective 2023
The first official COVID death in the US came at the end of February 2020. By April 1, 2020, the US was averaging more than 750 deaths per day. For the next two years, there were five spikes with death counts reaching thousands per day (peaking at 3,500 per day in January 2021). For twoContinue reading “COVID Retrospective 2023”
What is Sacrifice? What is Courage? Musk, Swift, and Others Demonstrate.
Although Elon Musk claims he has been and still is a liberal, he has become a conservative hero. I often agree with him, but I see him as merely attempting to return us to normality, sensibility, fairness, and sanity. Musk is resurrecting the notion of free speech, a fundamental concept which has only recently comeContinue reading “What is Sacrifice? What is Courage? Musk, Swift, and Others Demonstrate.”
From Obergefell to “Let’s Trans the Kids”. What’s Going on?
In 2012, North Carolina voted for a ban on gay marriage, extending a streak of thirty consecutive “no” votes in a period of a few years: https://www.npr.org/sections/itsallpolitics/2012/05/08/152297983/gay-marriage-referendum-drives-high-turnout-in-north-carolina The AP made that projection based on an actual tally of votes. With 35 percent of the vote counted, 58 percent of those casting ballots voted in favorContinue reading “From Obergefell to “Let’s Trans the Kids”. What’s Going on?”
What Does the Reaction to Jordan Neely’s Death Say About our Culture?
Was the death of Jordan Neely, a homeless man who succumbed on a NYC subway train, an accident or further demonstration of white supremacy? The question should not even be debated. Rational thought can explain such events, but too many (especially those whose job it is to inform us) have abandoned such thought; consequently, truthContinue reading “What Does the Reaction to Jordan Neely’s Death Say About our Culture?”
Biden: Will You Still Love Me When I’m 86?
Will it be Trump vs. Biden in 2024? Joe Biden is currently 80 years old and would be 86 by the end of a second term. Trump would be 82 by the end of a second term. Reagan, the prior record holder, left office at 77. Republican candidate Asa Hutchinson and Democrat candidates, Maryann Williamson,Continue reading “Biden: Will You Still Love Me When I’m 86?”
On Church and Science: Yet Another Phony Narrative
Academics today view Christianity as a fairy tale, and those believing in it as gullible and witless. Science and religion are portrayed as mutually exclusive, but this view has gained acceptance only in the last 100 years, and can be disproven. Isaac Newton, the inventor of calculus and one of the greatest minds of allContinue reading “On Church and Science: Yet Another Phony Narrative”
Revival Must Happen
Pastor Greg Laurie, pastor and author of Jesus Revolution spoke the title line in a recent interview. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jesus-revolution-how-the-hippie-generation-came-to-christ/id1045171376?i=1000607600628 I knew nothing of Laurie until I saw his story depicted in the Jesus Revolution. Laurie was caught up in the hippie movement of the 1970s, a movement that can be seen as the progenitor of theContinue reading “Revival Must Happen”
Guns and Transgenderism. It’s All About the Narrative.
We don’t yet know exactly why a transgender man (actually a female), killed six at a Nashville Christian school. She said she wanted to die and knew she would die that day (I refer to this person by her actual sex, not by the preferred one). She left behind a manifesto to explain everything, butContinue reading “Guns and Transgenderism. It’s All About the Narrative.”
