Even as Biden announces another climate apocalypse, here are five pieces of evidence showing that the Green movement is dangerously anti-human. Joe Biden announced Monday that carbon emissions threaten “the very existence of our planet.” Biden, of course, does not mean that the space rock that is earth will immolate; he means life will die. No matter what he means, though, Biden is wrong (again). This post introduces five pieces of evidence showing that the earth and mankind will survive (although we can always be better stewards of our earth) and that the green movement is invariably wrong because its...

President Trump has ended former President Obama's 12-year run as the most admired man in America, edging out his predecessor in the annual Gallup survey released Tuesday. Eighteen percent of the survey's respondents named Trump as their most admired man, compared to 15 percent who named Obama and 6 percent who named President-elect Joe Biden. Three percent named National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Anthony Fauci, while two percent said Pope Francis.

When the left says they want to silence us, arrest us, re-educate us, and utterly and completely destroy us, they mean it. And as we know all too well, they will use any means necessary. This is what tyrants do. And so, as patriots start to converge on Washington DC for Trump’s rally, the left is applying pressure to make it difficult for us to secure accommodations. First up is the Hotel Harrington which just announced it will be closed on January 4th, 5th and 6th in order to deny access to Trump supporters. They cite concerns about the Proud...

And in the home stretch of the 2020 “keep counting until morale improves” contest, Pennsylvania has currently pulled into the lead with this entry:A comparison of official county election results to the total number of voters who voted on November 3, 2020 as recorded by the Department of State shows that 6,962,607 total ballots were reported as being cast, while DoS/SURE system records indicate that only 6,760,230 total voters actually voted. Among the 6,962,607 total ballots cast, 6,931,060 total votes were counted in the presidential race, including all three candidates on the ballot and write-in candidates.The difference of 202,377 more...

This past year has been exceedingly difficult for many whose relatives and acquaintances unexpectedly passed away or became ill due to the worldwide COVID-19 plague. Many “progressive” governors have in strongarm fashion exploited the situation for political power purposes, callously subduing our population. We watched as our cities and innocent people were violently attacked by Antifa and BLM, all the while being excused, justified, and even exalted by the media and opinion shapers. American history, indeed Americanism itself, was maligned, the statues of our founding heroes toppled. It became fashionable to call for defunding the police and uprooting the last...

The ruling political class will always present itself as the savior to all those unknowingly and adversely affected by problems it created in the first place. The ruling political class in Washington D.C. is always making matters worse through what appear to be appropriate solutions for serious problems facing the country. Then when they don't work out as advertised many years after they've been implemented, they tell us that they've got the solutions for the newer, more serious problems that to the unsuspecting and unknowing public seem as if they came out of nowhere, and who are clueless as to...

One of the most iconic scenes from the AMC drama “Breaking Bad” was the murder of Hank Schrader. Schrader was a DEA agent lying on the ground as a neo-Nazi gang leader pointed a gun at him. Hank’s brother-in-law, Walter White, a brilliant chemistry teacher turned meth cook, frantically pleaded for Hank’s life. Hank looked at Walter and said with resigned contempt: “You’re the smartest guy I ever met. And you’re too stupid to see he made up his mind 10 minutes ago.” Hank then turned to the neo-Nazi, said “do what you’re going to do,” and immediately received a...

Republicans worry a Biden administration will muck up the economic strides made during President Trump’s four years in office. The index of consumer sentiment fell to 78.2 in December for Republicans, the lowest reading since October 2016, the month before Trump’s election victory over former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. The reading hit a high of 127.2 in February 2020 – just before COVID-19 lockdowns sent the U.S. economy spiraling into its sharpest slowdown of the post-World War II era.

Wishing someone a “Merry Christmas” is common practice for Canadian politicians on Dec. 25, but a holiday greeting from Alberta’s United Conservative Party received considerable criticism on social media over the weekend, including from clergy. The two-word Twitter and Facebook post with a Christmas tree emoji includes an image of the nativity — with Jesus, Mary and Joseph — overlaid with a passage from the King James Bible, Isaiah 9:6. Social media users criticized the party both for sharing a religious text from the official party account, and for the content of the verse itself which uses the word “government:”...

One of the Biden administration's key pledges is to have a "100 percent clean energy economy" and reach net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. A study released by Princeton researchers last week analyzed several scenarios detailing the herculean efforts required to achieve that goal. A prominent takeaway is the massive amount of land it would take to reimagine energy production and distribution nationally, including figuring out where to site a multitude of new solar arrays and wind turbines and constructing thousands of miles of transmission lines. "The current power grid took 150 years to build," one of the study researchers...

Who could have predicted how dreadful a year 2020 would be. By this New Year's Eve, 19 million to 20 million Americans will have contracted a deadly virus in a pandemic that exploded out of China to carry off 333,000 Americans, one of every 1,000 of us. As 2021 begins, Americans will be dying at the rate of 10,000 a week and contracting the virus at a rate of more than 1 million new cases a week. Yet, during that same year, miracles occurred. Vaccines were created, tested and mass-produced by Pfizer and Moderna that could, with 95 percent effectiveness,...

It’s just the flu, bro. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/coronavirus-updates-stimulus-checks-delayed-until-next-week-california-will-likely-extend-stay-at-home-orders-stocks-soar-to-records/ar-BB1cjmFt The above Coronavirus news update highlights three things: 1.stimulus checks increased from 600 dollars to 2000 dollars - this is a step toward the commie dream of universal basic income. I know of many people who refused to work because they didn’t want a “pay cut”. This behavior is also significant in other Western Countries too. This check doesn’t help the USA avoid socialism. 2.California extends lockdown by 3 weeks - and I bet they will extend again and again. Newsom is an idiot and the only hope is the courts if anyone wants...

Nearly everyone has seen the classic movie "The Shawshank Redemption." Well, it turns out there is a real life "Red" Redding, the character played by Morgan Freeman. He is in prison in Alabama. He has been there for nearly 40 years. He was guilty of his crime: a murder he committed as a teenager in a drug operation. But so many people who have interacted with Rutledge in prison see the similarities in character with Red. He grew up in a broken home with a father he never knew. His mother was a child of 13 years old and was...

How rigged is the system in Georgia? – So rigged that state judges rule that it is illegal for election officials to purge out-of-state voters from the voter rolls. Check out this story: From the story at Politico: A federal judge in Georgia on Monday ordered two counties to reverse a decision removing more than 4,000 voters from the rolls ahead of the Jan. 5 runoff elections that will decide control of the U.S. Senate. The judge, Leslie Abrams Gardner — the sister of former gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams, a prominent ally of President-elect Joe Biden who has led voter...

Reagan wrote about this earlier today about how the House speakership of Nancy Pelosi could be in danger. The Democratic House majority will be smaller next Congress. Democrats lost seats they weren’t expecting in the 2020 election. Similar disappointment marks how liberal America faired down-ticket this cycle, which puts a huge damper on the national election results. Pelosi surely didn’t expect that members of her delegation from the California suburbs would have to update their resumes come January. So, she really has no cushion for error here. The same goes for any legislation the Democrats want to pass in the...

This year was a disaster in just about every respect, but nothing compares to the overall disaster that is the media. Informing the public and seeking the truth took a backseat to agenda pushing and straight-up advocacy. While everyone in the media soiled themselves this year, to one degree or another, some people are just so awful they deserve special recognition.Joy Reid. Liberals fail up. There’s really no other explanation as to why this conspiracy theorist who only takes a break from lying to would get a new show on MSNBC. The fraud who lied about her blog being hacked...

Shame on all of us for allowing mass hysteria and stupidity to ruin our lives, and the lives of children.

Perhaps more is going on than I can see, but what is visible to 75 million Trump supporters, those who have endured ridicule and scorn for supporting their president, is that nothing is happening. This is Trump’s administration and he’s the boss... *snip* The buck stops with him. If nothing is happening, then that’s on him. Is he flailing away in a vain attempt to win a second term? *snip* At one level it sure seems that way. The clock is ticking with important electoral dates breezing by, getting ever closer to the final date of Jan. 20? On the...

The above image will undoubtedly be disturbing to most Americans. Some will be inclined to laugh it off. Some will take it more seriously. If we look at maps of Latin-America (Central and South America) this is exactly what they look like. In short, Latin-America looks a lot like Europe with large land masses broken up into multiple smaller countries. Even Brazil, the largest Latin-American nation, only takes up a fraction of South America. Only in Anglo-America (North America situated north of the Rio Grande) do we see the phenomenon of a two singular nations, stretching continent-wide, from ocean to...

A man on the scene shot the robbery suspect in the chest and abdomen, police said. It is not clear if the man was the owner, employee, or another customer. Police said the shooter, 29, had a valid concealed carry permit. The robbery suspect was transported in critical condition to Stroger Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
