Opportunity Economy

      Comments Off on Opportunity Economy

Kamala Harris cackles her way through scripted interviews. Of course, Harris has a chaperone for these interviews.  She and Walz dance around bringing “joy to the world!”  But when you actually get her talking about policy, about what she believes in, the cackling stops.  Harris is the daughter of a Marxist professor.  And her “values have not changed.” it’s just communism all the way down.

What does this mean for economic policy?

Not Pretending Anymore

      Comments Off on Not Pretending Anymore

Kamala Harris says she believes in freedom.  However, Harris is a Communist.  So, Harris’ view of freedom is far different from the average person’s view.  Her view of freedom aligns with that of the East Germany Stasi or the Soviet Union’s KGB.  You are allowed to speak out about how great the Democratic Party is, about how great a Harris Presidency would be for the country.  However, if you disagree with these ideas publicly, you will be attacked.  You will be censored.  And, if they can find a way, you will be eliminated from the public sphere.

Exceptionalism

The following is a message to all Americans from Sundance over at CTH.

Happy Labor Day, Scruffnecks! …. and that has nothing to do with the color of your collar.

I’ve sent this message before, and I repeat it because the one consistency in this crazy world of ours is our ability to remember that not a single person has the power to destabilize us.  Everything of great purpose comes from within, and from a loving God. As Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn famously said:

“The simple step of a courageous individual is not to take part in the lie. One word of truth outweighs the world.”

I Am An American

      Comments Off on I Am An American

This is a rerun of a post from several years ago.  It is even more appropriate today than it was then.

Freedom is a valuable and precious gift worth fighting for.  As Sundance notes:

We Americans come from solid stock.  We carry in our DNA a fortitude of individual identity that is not dependent on government for affirmation or permission.  We are the beneficiaries of those who believed in stubborn independence.

On the day when we celebrate the birth of America, we should ask what it means to be a citizen of this republic. ...

Chevron Overturned

      Comments Off on Chevron Overturned

Another lever that our elite politicians have used to avoid responsibility has been overturned by the Supreme Court.  It was known as Chevron Deference.  It was decision handed down from SCOTUS in 1984.  It allowed federal agencies to interpret laws themselves if they felt the statute was ambiguous.  Under the Chevron decision, federal courts were supposed to defer to the “experts” in such agencies.  SCOTUS has ended that practice.

June Celebrations

      Comments Off on June Celebrations

June is upon us.  With that we are again going to be exposed to Pride Month where leftist ideologues will try to groom our children.  It is time to change that.  We have one day to celebrate mothers.  We have one day to celebrate fathers.  Why do we have a month for LGBT?  If, to show our diversity, the country has to have a celebration of LGBT, let it be for one day only.

Censorship

      Comments Off on Censorship

The Devil and his many minions hate satire.  Why?  Properly done, it makes the target into a laughingstock.  It is a much better approach than violence.

Senator John Kennedy (R-LA) is a master of incisive quotes and satire.  Kennedy recently wrote an opinion column that was critical of trans athletes and USA Today-owned newspapers deleted the piece without even notifying Kennedy.

The problem?  According to the Gannett-owned USA Today, the op-ed contained “inflammatory” speech. According to Gannett editor Michael McCarter:
