From plastic back to paper, the World-Savers are at it again

Would you vote Socialist if you knew what it was?

Preaching Socialism/ Living Capitalism America may be the safest place in the world to preach Socialism to others while prospering under Capitalism.

The Winds of Change Blow in Africa: 101st Paratroopers out, Security Forces in

The Pentagon’s decision to replace elements of an infantry brigade of the 101st Airborne with elements of the 1st Security Force Assistance Brigade (SFAB) has long been in the works.  This will accomplish two tasks: Firstly, it will provide better continuity in training missions with a unit designed to train foreign troops, thereby freeing up […]

The Democrat Party is a wet hot mess, again

Rise of the Progressives Not for the first time, the Democrat party appears to be splintering along factional lines. It has a long history of this actually.

Attorney General William Barr, probably the most dangerous man in DC

Trump’s huge budget means huge deficits

Dead On Arrival The President has proposed a budget for 2021 as is his duty, but don’t expect it to pass unscathed.

Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vindman: From zero to hero and back again

From Zero to Hero It wasn’t too long ago that the President’s foes, broadly known as “The Resistance” were saying that anyone serving on Trump’s White House staff are traitors.  Try not to be surprised that the Resistance is now outraged that the President dismissed two Army Colonels on detail to the White House NSC […]

American warfighters keep dying in Afghanistan, what do politicians say?

In light of the recent Green-on-Blue attack in Nangarhar Province Afghanistan which claimed the lives of two Special Forces members and wounded several more, it may surprise you to know that both the President and the Democrats seeking their party’s nomination in the upcoming November elections all seem to be in rhetorical agreement.

The Iowa Caucus: Democratic Party’s mobile app backfires

Elections can be messy things, but at the heart of them is a simple count of the votes cast: one plus one, equals two.  Very simple math done by simple folks just trying to sort out who won. In Iowa, the Democratic Paty hired a third party software company called “Shadow Inc” to create a […]
