[May 7, 2024] The recent announcement from America’s White House that the United States will oppose Israel’s move to destroy its enemy, Hamas, is part of a long history of America’s history of abandoning its allies.

[May 6, 2024] A roll-on-the-floor funny group of videos by ReasonTV looks at what happens when people or organizations/governments look to solve a problem, but the results are not what they wanted.

[May 4, 2024] In one of the most unexpected turn of events in recent days on college campuses, the Pi Kappa Phi fraternity brothers at UNC Chapel Hill took action to save the American flag from Nazi kill-the-Jews “protestors.” When I attended Texas Tech, we had fun with those in fraternities; maybe we were jealous since none of… 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 »
[April 23, 2024] I’ve long asked myself this question, “Why did non-slaveholding Southerners fight in the Civil War?” Like so many Americans, I had relatives who fought and died on both sides of the war, many brother against brother opposing each other on the same battlefield.
