Vermont Democrat perma-Senator Patrick Leahy is FINALLY leaving office. We should take a moment to examine his nigh-eternal DC existence. Because it is a quintessential example of A LOT of what is wrong with DC. Leahy was born in 1940 – before World War II began. He was first elected to the Senate in 1974…
Our supply chain shortages have hopefully awakened We the People to the necessity of re-insourcing almost all of what we have very stupidly outsourced. Nothing we have stupidly outsourced is more important than Intellectual Property (IP) creation. Stupider still? We outsourced very much of it to Communist China. Massive economic disadvantages aside, China’s technology inventions…
Amazon has illegally monster-ed its way to online retail dominance. Amazon’s No-Profit Model: Bleed Competitors to Death – Then Do Exactly What They Did: “A key component of Amazon’s murderous business model – was operating for a quarter century making…almost no money whatsoever.

The United States spent much of the latter half of the 20th Century engaging in a wide array of titanically stupid policies. And we’ve spent the first quarter of the 21st Century being just as titanically stupid. The dumbest policy of this Idiot Era has been our suicidal embrace of globalism. In the 1950s, we…
We are currently experiencing a mass expansion of government censorship. Which government attempts to justify by saying they’re only censoring “disinformation,” “misinformation” or “fake news.” Except…. Dog Memes, Fake News, Political Ads and Big Tech: Who Watches the Watchers?: “(W)e have millions of highly influential American citizens looking to ban information – in the name…
We are in the Age of Stupid. We the Thinking have been concussed into a stupor – and forcibly submerged beneath the waves of idiocy. There is so much dumbness coming at us from so many directions, it is impossible to deal with it all – let alone fight it all off. The best one…
Sometimes lost in the Red Team-Blue Team perspective on the Supreme Court’s rulings? The Court’s decisions are not simply ideological exercises. There are real word implications to the decisions they render. The further removed their decisions are from the Constitution – the worse things get here in reality.
