Nineteenth Century abolitionist Frederick Douglas railed against the tyranny of his era’s version of political correctness, stating: “Liberty is meaningless when the right to utter one’s thoughts and opinions has ceased to exist. That, of all rights, is the dread of tyrants. It is the right which they first of all strike down.” Yet it …

A Corrupt Media that Most seem to Believe!
Zach Vorhies’ “Google Leaks” tells the story of his mounting disenchantment with Google in the years after Trump’s election. An employee there for eight and a half years, he found the company so outraged by Trump that it ceased to have any respect for the truth, supporting the brazenly one-sided narratives pushed by CNN, CNBC, …

Speaking of Stereotypes…
Democratic senator Joe Manchin of West Virginia recently dealt a mortal blow to Biden’s proposed Build Back Better Act which would apparently cost the American taxpayer anywhere from 1.75 to almost 5 trillion dollars. I have no way of knowing which of those figures is more accurate but my main concern is the plethora of …
Adaobi of Nigeria
On Aug. 14, 2020, Larry Elder interviewed a young Nigerian woman whose odyssey was really quite inspiring. Adaobi explained that she had left her homeland to be educated in the U.S., beginning that process in N.Y. where she spent two and a half years before going to Texas to complete her education. Her schooling, she …
Your Citizenship means Nothing!
New York city’s incoming Democratic mayor, Eric Adams, has endorsed legislation that gives the vote to 800,000 non-citizens in future municipal elections. Included in that number are lawful permanent residents who have been in the country at least 30 days, those in the States on temporary legal work permits and so-called Dreamers, those who entered …
Ted Cruz once again….
On Sept. 22, 2021, Ted Cruz, in a Senate Judicial Committee hearing, questioned a panel of legal experts on the subject of voter I.D. laws. I was taken aback when he took Law Professor Franita Tolson’s claim that Texas’ laws were racist and suggested she had implied all Texans were racists. She had not said …
Your Response, Mr. Schumer?
Wow! Such hypocrisy! In the U.S. Senate this past Wednesday, Republican Tom Cotton gave an impassioned speech denouncing Biden’s proposed changes to Senate protocol, changes clearly designed to bypass the checks and balances presently impeding the imposition of policies which Biden says are essential to the welfare of the American public. Remember, it is Trump, …
Ted Cruz: Just another Conspiracy Theorist?
There are multiple examples of the FBI infiltrating and instigating protesters whose agendas were not looked upon favorably by the ruling powers of the day. Research the topic and you will find, for example, a Rolling Stone article from 2012 denouncing the FBI’s use of undercover agents to incite members of the Left-Wing Occupy movement …

So Transparent!
Almost 2 million illegals, i.e., people who failed to go through the officially designated channels, entered the U.S. with its government’s permission in 2021. It is estimated another half million got in utterly undetected. Given that Trump had attempted to stem this tide by building a wall while Biden has allowed it to go on …
Two Wrongs do NOT make a Right!
Among the many inanities of the contemporary Left is its assumption that arbitrarily punishing White people today somehow makes up for injustices committed a hundred years ago. On no level is there any merit to what is literally a recipe for Fascism. A Jan. 11 article posted on Common Sense with Bari Weiss entitled “Hollywood’s …
