Fri, 2025-04-04 18:00 +0000
Seabrook administrators have been failing their students for several years now. Parents are so desperate, they are asking for media attention.

Inflation Is Repudiation

Fri, 2025-04-04 14:00 +0000
Did Donald Trump learn anything from watching Joe Biden economically suicide-bomb his own presidency? President Trump is decreeing new tariffs and issuing sweeping tariff threats on a weekly basis. Trump supporters believe the president is so wise that he can levy taxes that make imported goods far more expensive without skewering American consumers. But does ... Read more

Trump Still Hasn’t “Fired” As Many Federal Employees as Bill Clinton

Fri, 2025-04-04 12:00 +0000
Here’s an inconvenient truth. For all the caterwailing, wailing, pearl-clutching, and gnashing of baby teeth, Donald Trump has not yet achieved the kind of planned executive branch attrition achieved by William Jefferson Clinton. During the 1990s, President Bill Clinton reduced the size of the federal civilian workforce from roughly 2.2 million to 1.8 million, largely through ... Read more

Once-Only vs Ongoing, Know the Difference

Thu, 2025-04-03 22:00 +0000
As COVID-related funds dry up, either by sunsetting or someone in Washington closing the valve, the amount of stupidity on full display is astounding.  It’s mostly among the enemy camp, both in the ruling class and their supporters.  Though gratefully relocated far from the most troubled city in the state, I still pay attention to ...

What Does My America Look Like

Thu, 2025-04-03 20:00 +0000
We use many catchphrases to talk about the America we conservatives want to return to. The America of Old, My Father’s America, and the Trump favorite, Make America Great Again, are a few, but what do they really mean? Before we define our America, let’s distinguish what it is not. America is not a global ... Read more

Free Speech is Worth Fighting For

Thu, 2025-04-03 18:00 +0000
We do not have free speech to talk about the weather. Our Founders, particularly James Madison who drafted the Bill of Rights, understood that our rights are not privileges granted to us by government. No, it was understood at the founding that these basic natural rights outlined by Madison were granted by our Creator and ... Read more

Special Interests Versus the Children

Thu, 2025-04-03 10:00 +0000
Just a reminder here that former National Federation of Teachers President Albert Shanker once admitted, “When schoolchildren start paying dues, that’s when I’ll start representing the interests of schoolchildren.” True that! And watching the debate in the legislature over how to reign in public education costs and improve student outcomes, I think that sentiment resides ... Read more

Forget The Cheese, Check Out This Sunshine

Wed, 2025-04-02 20:00 +0000
The Handmaiden media pulled some sleight of hand this morning. They made you look at Wisconsin as the bellwether for the 2026 midterms, but not Florida. The cheese heads did something remarkable. Backed by millions from progressive oligarchs like George Soros, JB Pritzker, and Reid Hoffman, they defended a State Supreme Court seat they already ... Read more

An Open Letter to Senate Commerce Members

Wed, 2025-04-02 18:00 +0000
As I’ve been closely following HB 649 (removing the requirement for physical safety inspections and on-board diagnostic tests for passenger vehicles…), I’ve been trying to rally up the troops at every step of the way.
