The Black Knights (8-2) posted their first shutout in the series since a 27-0 victory in 1969 and have won four of five against Navy (3-7). Navy still leads the series 61-53-7.

Conservative judicial reticence hurt Texas in its long reach for standing but it will help President Trump if he uses the Article IV guarantee of a republican form of government to order federal takeover of the January 5th runoff elections in Georgia. Texas has teed it up perfectly. When President Trump brings in the Army to conduct model open and honest elections to select the next two U.S. senators from Georgia he’s going to need a political army behind him and that is what Texas and the 18 states who joined Texas v. Pennsylvania give him. The left will denounce...

Hon. W.L. YANCEY -- Dear Sir: You will see from my last letter that I have no faith in the validity or sincerity of the reasons assigned for a secession of the Southern States. The motive for that movement is neither the failure of the North to surrender fugitive slaves, nor the enactment of Personal Liberty bills, nor the practical inability of Southern slaveholders to take their slaves into the Territories of the United States. If you could have full and sufficient guarantees upon every one of these points you would be just as zealous, though not perhaps so sanguine,...

Interview of Norman Dodd around 1982. He passed in 1987. Norman was chief investigator for The Select Committee to Investigate Tax-Exempt Foundations and Comparable Organizations, in the early 1950's. There were two "rounds" of this committee - first, the "Cox" committee was a deep-state whitewash, but Cox died and the "Hayes" committee re-opened things and investigated to determine the hows and whys of what was going on. The earliest rumblings of this story start pre- WW1. Anybody wondering how we got to where we are today, with the recent "elections", Dodd knew, and talks about it here. Since the 1980's...

Australia had to suspend the development of a Covid-19 vaccine candidate after numerous volunteers in the early-stage trials developed antibodies for HIV, as per media reports. The official statement from the scientists revealed that some patients demonstrated antibodies towards fragments of an HIV protein (gp41). The researchers consulted the Australian Government. Following which they decided to not move ahead with phase 2 and 3 clinical trials. The vaccine was one of four candidates that Australia had committed to buy. It also placed the order for 51 million doses of the experimental vaccine. The university said there is no possibility the...

Have you thought about getting your vaccine passport in order? Because it could very well be a requirement from the cruise lines that you must be immune to COVD-19 before sailing. Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings CEO Frank Del Rio said the company already has its lawyers looking at the legal side of requiring guests to show they have been vaccinated with the COVID-19 vaccine. Cruise Industry Will Have To Build Confidence First Before we see any significant changes in how the cruise industry can operate, they will need to show that cruising can be done safely. This confidence will need...

America is a nation premised on freedom. We’re not set up to prioritize safety above all else, whatever the petty tyrants in the bureaucracy or state government might tell you when they try to increase their power. Just read The Federalist Papers if you don’t believe me. That means, of course, that desiring freedom is not selfish, whether we’re perfectly safe anyway or in the midst of a raging pandemic like the Chinese Flu. That’s not what those pesky and hypocritical tyrants like Governor Whitmer or Cuomo would have you believe, however. They love power trip that comes with forcing...

Four years ago, in this same space and at a time when many Americans were on the horns of a dilemma that was the choice between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, I offered an alternative: former Secretary of State George Shultz. My argument was based on Mr. Shultz’s resume (he’s one only two Americans to have held four cabinet posts – State, Treasury, Labor and OMB – the other being the late Elliot Richardson) . . . His character (more on that in a moment) . . . And the fact that running the country would help Secretary Shultz pass...

I'm going to be quoting a lot of sources in this column rather than writing much original content. That's because there are so many others saying things better than I can. A few days ago, I read a piece by Daisy Luther (The Organic Prepper) called "How the COVID Response has Destroyed the Personal Finances of Americans." It was so depressing that I could only read it a little at a time. Normally Luther does a superb job of offering hope in seemingly hopeless situations; but boy, this one was a downer from start to finish. Among much else, the...

Attorney General Bill Barr has dismissed Donald Trump's attacks as a 'deposed king ranting' and said that he 'isn't intimidated' by the president calling him a 'big disappointment' over the Hunter Biden tax probe, according to a source. Trump lashed out at Barr on Twitter Saturday morning demanding to know why he didn't reveal the investigation into President-elect Joe Biden's son before the election and retweeting a post calling for the firing of the DOJ's top boss. His fury came after it emerged on Wednesday that the Justice Department had been investigating Hunter Biden over his business dealings and taxes...

Donald Trump has said he is 'so disappointed' the Supreme Court for refusing to hear the Texas lawsuit to overturn Joe Biden's election victory. The president told Fox and Friends in an interview aired Sunday his team have 'proven' fraud in the election, adding: 'We've proven it, but no judge has had the courage, including the Supreme Court, I am so disappointed in them.' His comments came two days after the Supreme Court refused to hear the lawsuit spearheaded by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton that sought to invalidate the election results in four other states.

Witness the reaction of nearly all mainstream media to The Post’s bombshell reporting on the Hunter Biden Files, which recently garnered yet another boost of verification — this one courtesy of the illustrious vice-presidential son himself, who revealed that federal authorities are probing his “taxes. ”The probe appears to be much wider than that, in fact. Politico and the Times report that investigators across several jurisdictions are looking into potential money-laundering involving Hunter’s foreign ties and his finances generally. CNN says “at least one of the matters investigators have examined is a 2017 gift of a 2.8-carat diamond that Hunter...

As college football limped toward the finish of its fraught 2020 regular season, it was fitting its final full-slate Saturday was saved by a guy throwing a shoe. And for a team with a leading Heisman Trophy contender in quarterback Kyle Trask, it was ironic the season's biggest throw came from cornerback Marco Wilson. It all was a perfect example of the universe's cyclical nature: the defending champs (what's left of them, anyway) pulling off the season's most stunning win. Little has made sense in this wild spin around the sun we call 2020, and so it was that LSU's...

There have been many examples of blue state hypocrisy as of late. The Democrat hypocrites create stricter and stricter rules to deal with the phantom menace of Covid but then refuse to follow those rules themselves. Democrat mayors and governors shut down small businesses, didn’t let spouses and children mourn the passing of loved ones, ruined the academic experience of millions of students, and wrecked the dreams of many more millions of Americans. Those people are despicable. It’s one thing to create and follow strict lockdown orders because you think that’s the right thing to do; I, and many others,...

The untold story of a battle to reveal the truth about Dominion voting machines is brewing in Michigan, and not surprisingly, it’s getting very little coverage by the mainstream media. In a solidly red county in northern Michigan where Trump banners, flags, and yard signs can be found in almost every front yard, voters woke up to discover Joe Biden had walloped President Trump, only to find out shortly later that Dominion voting machines flipped thousands of votes cast for Trump to his Democratic challenger Joe Biden. The media called it a “glitch” and blamed it on human error.

The credibility of public health officials was shot earlier this year after members of the medical community approved of the months-long protests – i.e. superspreader events – following the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis. Hypocritically, the same "experts" chastised other gatherings and large events that didn't call for defunding police departments or descend into widespread violence and mayhem. We now know, thanks to scientists who analyzed the genetic code of the coronavirus, that a superspreader event back in February is responsible for around 300,000 cases of the Wuhan virus. The event wasn't a reopening protest or a Trump rally,...

Yesterday a sort of running gag on alternative names for Biden took place. Like Beijing Biden, my favorite. How about we come up with bumper sticker suggestions? Not for commercial purposes of anyone here, although I don’t doubt some particularly nice ones might be filched for that purpose. No matter. But, it would be interesting to see what sort of pithy (on a bumper sticker afterall) sayings we can create expressing our opinions of what is slithering into the seats of power. I’ve one on my own car now, for several weeks now. Picked it up in a local gun...
