I have learnt from painful experience that modern feminism is an evil misandrist force which threatens the survival of the social order in The West. I congratulate activist attorney Phyllis Schlafly, who died 7 years ago on the 5th of September 2016, for being a great anti-feminist. I believe that one of Schlafly’s great human intellectual achievements is to clearly articulate how important motherhood is to so many women. “Feminism has changed the way women think, and it has changed the way men think, but the trouble is, it hasn’t changed the attitudes of babies at all.” “When I had...

Freedom Convoy organizers Tamara Lich and Chris Barber are set to stand trial beginning on Tuesday. The pair were hit with a slew of charges related to their involvement in the protest, which saw tens of thousands of Canadians descend upon Ottawa in early 2022 and demand an end to government-mandated Covid restrictions. Prosecutors have alleged that by telling supporters to "hold the line" after police asked them to clear the area, Lich and Barber obstructed efforts to restore order in the nation's capital after nearly three weeks of occupation. The pair's lawyers said in a joint statement Friday that...

Crazy Horse died on September 5th, 1877, at Fort Robinson, Nebraska. In my eyes he was a small government libertarian and man of peace. Medic Charles Eastman wrote that Crazy Horse was "as worthy of honor as any who ever breathed God’s air in the wide spaces of a new world." The commitment of Crazy Horse to true freedom shines through in his words: "We preferred our own way of living. We were no expense to the government. All we wanted was peace and to be left alone." "I see a time of Seven Generations when all the colors of...

It’s a new day in Nebraska, where after years of struggle lawful gun owners can now bear arms in self-defense without having to first obtain a government-issued permission slip.Gov. Jim Pillen signed LB 77 into law back in April, declaring that the bill upheld the promise made to voters to “protect our constitutional rights and promote commonsense, conservative values” and praising state Sen. Tom Brewer for championing the bill year after year, slowly making progress until the legislation finally had the votes to cross the finish line.“Nebraskans should not have to pay the government a fee or ask permission for...

Steve Bannon did an excellent monologue today outlining how President Donald Trump is one of only three people who have the destiny of the nation attached to their own destiny.Together with President Abraham Lincoln and President George Washington, the destiny of our constitutional Republic as intrinsically tied to President Donald Trump.

One of the greatest contributions that America gave to the world was and is religious freedom. In 2020, that freedom was taken away from all religions in the United States. We’ve not yet come to terms with this awful reality and what it means for the future of faith. The lockdowns were a major blow to religious institutions and practice. Every major survey shows that attendance at weekly religious services is down from pre-lockdown times. “The share of all U.S. adults who say they typically attend religious services at least once a month is down modestly but measurably (by 3...

*** “The sheriff is supposed to be protecting the public from evil,” the chief law enforcement officer for Barry County, Michigan, said during a break in the National Sheriffs’ Association 2023 conference in June. “When your government is evil or out of line, that’s what the sheriff is there for, protecting them from that.” Leaf is on the advisory board of the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association, founded in 2011 by former Arizona sheriff Richard Mack. The group, known as CSPOA, teaches that elected sheriffs must “protect their citizens from the overreach of an out-of-control federal government” by refusing...

The founding of America on the principle that all men, as image-bearers of God, are created equal and endowed with unalienable rights has been a clarion call for human rights and the dignity of each individual for more than two centuries. Thomas Jefferson's Declaration of Independence was the culmination of Western civilization's philosophical gift to the world. Through two world wars and a cold war with communist totalitarianism, America stood on the world's stage and declared itself a friend of liberty for all mankind. The United States remains the last Western nation where the right to live and speak according...

AI and Microdirectives [2023.07.21] Imagine a future in which AIs automatically interpret—and enforce—laws. All day and every day, you constantly receive highly personalized instructions for how to comply with the law, sent directly by your government and law enforcement. You’re told how to cross the street, how fast to drive on the way to work, and what you’re allowed to say or do online—if you’re in any situation that might have legal implications, you’re told exactly what to do, in real time. Imagine that the computer system formulating these personal legal directives at mass scale is so complex that no...

The Supreme Court revived the Biden administration’s restrictions on so-called ghost guns in a 5-4 emergency ruling Tuesday. The justices agreed to pause a lower court’s decision, which invalidated the regulation nationwide, as the administration continues its appeal. The decision hands a victory to Biden, at least for now. Biden last year announced the crackdown on ghost guns, referring to firearms that are sold as do-it-yourself kits and are generally hard to trace. The case will now proceed in a lower appeals court, which is slated to hear oral arguments next month. The matter could ultimately return to the Supreme...

The towering Mother Ukraine statue in Kyiv — one of the nation’s most recognizable landmarks — lost its hammer-and-sickle symbol on Sunday as officials replaced the Soviet-era emblem with the country’s trident coat of arms. The move is part of a wider shift to reclaim Ukraine’s cultural identity from the Communist past amid Russia’s ongoing invasion. Erected in 1981 as part of a larger complex housing the national World War II museum, the 200-foot (61-meter) Mother Ukraine monument stands on the right bank of the Dnieper River in Kyiv, facing eastward toward Moscow. Created in the image of a fearless...

The U.S. Secret Service has responded to a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request by refusing to hand over details of its investigation into the cocaine found in the White House. The FOIA request, for a list of people possibly involved in the White House cocaine incident, was filed by the Heritage Foundation. The Secret Service rejected the request by claiming that such records are outside its authority. The Heritage Foundation filed a FOIA request after the Secret Service found “no suspects” and closed the investigation into the cocaine discovery in mid-July. The FOIA request seeks the list of hundreds...
