[April 30, 2024] John Hinderaker has done us a favor by highlighting a tweet from Elon Musk and helping explain what he meant. According to Hinderaker, modern liberalism extracts the essence of Marxism, which means that all human relationships are exploitative. “Of course, this idea is ridiculous. Most human relationships, whether personal or economic, are not exploitative. But… Read More »
[April 27, 2024] As elite university students across America set up tent cities to celebrate and promote Hamas terrorism, we should try to understand their thinking. There is a short video on X and social media of some Columbia students who aren’t sure what or why they are “protesting.” These university students are useful idiots of the radical… Read More »
[April 25, 2024] Today, it is rare to see great leadership anywhere. From the highest office in the land to the lowest, leaders are failing and failing spectacularly. Why is that the case?

[April 24, 2024] The idea that college today in America is worse than useless is not new. But since the Hamas terror attack on Israel, there has been an explosion of violent anti-Semitism on many college campuses, fueled by the pandering of college presidents to “protestors.” Extremists are now running these Woke asylums, and that is downright dangerous.… Read More »

But the question is rarely discussed or just dismissed as unimportant. Fortunately,… Read More »
[April 20, 2024] The government of Iran is a bit of an enigma, combining puzzling behavior with emotionally bombastic talk. For those in the West, we often wonder why Iran would attack a nearby country with a superior military, and a will to use that military. My thinking is that there are two main reasons Iran has stepped… Read More »
[April 15, 2024] One of the lessons from life is that we must be alert to the beauty in life, for there is little of greater value. Such a statement may seem nonsensical and naïve, but to see beauty for its value is on the same intellectual plane of discriminating between good and evil. This is a form… Read More »
[April 12, 2024] A week ago, I wrote about R.K. Rowling’s potential arrest for telling the truth about the “trans craze.” Now that Scotland’s Hate Crime Law is in effect for one week, there are over 8,000 complaints submitted, and the police force is in an uproar. But what is most ironic is that many of these complaints… Read More »
[April 9, 2024] Ten years ago, I wrote about the failure of the Obama Administration to protect the fledgling democratic movement in Ukraine from being destroyed by the Russian war machine. I wrote, “Since the U.S. had no strategy, policy, or leadership on the Ukraine War, that … we are accepting [read violent] behavior” by Russia (see link).… Read More »
