As the late film director Stanley Kubrick might have said, one would have to be living with “eyes wide shut” to not see the vast array of government-directed, government-funded, or government-connected schemes and practices used to censor pro-freedom Americans or to reduce the reach of their ideas.
From the recent revelations about so-called “fact-check” organizations like NewsGuard…
Many people grow out of celebrating Halloween. Perhaps they learn about its dark, occultic roots, or perhaps they just become more satisfied by staying inside on a chilly night rather than wearing sight-limiting masks and becoming targets for egg-throwers on the prowl.
But, for some, the spooky spirit of fear continues, and it seems recently to have been manifested in the form of a “trick-or-…
One would be mistaken to view the vast, desolate landscape of crushed freedoms left in the wake of government’s eternal march and imagine that there might not be any more freedoms their jackboots can crush.
Politicians and bureaucrats are very creative when it comes to new ways to attack our rights.
Hence, we see this headline, from Reuters:
“US halts exports of most civilian firearms for 90…
Mark Twain is claimed to have said, “It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.”
Alas, perhaps Portland, Maine City Councilor Victoria Pelletier is not familiar with the adage, or she never independently reached that conclusion.
The Maine Wire’s Steve Robinson reports:
“A city councilor from Maine’s largest city has…
The Supreme Court of the United States on Friday agreed to take up the case known as “Missouri v. Biden,” and known among many free speech advocates as a battle against immoral, unconstitutional federal pressure to make social media platforms censor facts and opinions that federal politicians and bureaucrats do not like.
And in opening the door to hear this important case, the majority of SCOTUS…
Who says Joe Biden can’t engage in that proverbial activity of “chewing gum and walking at the same time?”
Sure, one might look at his vampiric thirst to suck money from us so he can send it (and multiple-tens of billions of dollars' worth of weapons) to Ukraine, Israel, and other nation-states, and one might wonder if that would consume his time. But, heck, he’s so talented and energetic,…
As children, perhaps fantasy tales serve the purpose of entertaining us – as forms of enthralling escapism. But, even at early ages, we were better served if adults explained the deeper moral lessons that some authors might have woven into their tales. The true value of fantasy comes when it lifts one beyond fantastic escapism, and offers person-to-person moral communication about the real world…
A few years ago, leftists served up one of their new dishes in the seemingly endless cafeteria line of postmodern-woke-Marxist-sexist terminology. It was called “mansplaining” and, though it reflected the reverse-sexist, prejudiced mentality of its users, it also drew from a well-grounded, universal source. Most of us don’t like being talked down to, patronized, and told what to do – especially…
This is the second breaking story tied to the Biden regime that recalls the perverse and absurd FDR policy of using money it took from taxpayers to pay people literally to destroy valuable things like agricultural products, or to engage in useless work, like digging ditches and then refilling them.
This isn’t FDR’s era, and many Americans have learned from those disastrous Roosevelt attacks on…
Purported “Economist” Paul Krugman is a minor celebrity, of sorts. It’s not because some think that he nearly landed the lead in the farcical flick “Clueless,” and it’s not because many suspect he was the unidentified subject of the Rollins Band’s song, “Liar” – though both possibilities seem strong to those who actually understand economics. Kruggy’s “reputation” for goofy takes on…
