No better writer anywhere than Mark Steyn….his latest is both compelling and depressing. It’s truly 1984. _________________________ We are in a literally Orwellian world now. Until a couple of days ago the headline on this Washington Post story from February 2020 read: Tom Cotton keeps repeating a coronavirus conspiracy theory that was
Historical perspective is valuable, especially when it comes from Dr. Victor Davis Hanson. FTA: “…arrogance, wealth, and received authority are always the super-spreaders and force-multipliers of false knowledge, and none more so than in the present age.” __________________ Once upon a time long ago, we agreed there were certain immutable
No idea who Seton Motley is, but his recent post at Redstate, reproduced in full below, is worth reading. There is a growing angst in America today that the American government itself–mostly via its intelligence agencies–is at the root of the massive mental manipulation that ensnared America in what looks
Spot. On. From Steve McCann, writing on American Thinker. Key excerpts: The fault lies not with the radical American left, as they are small in number, but with the ruling class through their deliberate inaction, focus on self-aggrandizement, and willingness to ally with the left. It is these near-treasonous actions
To paraphrase Rush Limbaugh, once you know what Victor Davis Hanson thinks about a particular topic, you’ll be hard pressed to think more clearly. Reproduced in its entirety from American Greatness is his most recent essay “Feet-of-Clay Icons”. __________________ “The head of the statue was made of pure gold, its
Steyn’s writing speaks for itself. Reproduced in full below. __________________ My position on the afternoon of January 6th has been consistent since the early evening of January 6th. Here’s what I said to Tucker a couple of hours after the whole rigmarole began. I was in a bad mood because
Having begun with Parts 1 and II of Tal Bachman’s essay, here and here, we’ll add Part III, here. He’s getting pretty deep into philosophical weeds without a solution, but remains usefully thought-provoking. America’s ‘solution’ from the beginning was the acknowledgement of a Creator, a noble and good purpose to
Deep, intelligent, historically knowledgeable, reflective discussion of America’s stark predicament, from Lee Smith and Victor Davis Hanson, two stalwarts of American thought…captured at Conservative Treehouse. A thread of hope and optimism. Worth your time.
A month ago, we drew attention to Part 1 of Bachman’s so far two-part essay titled “We Have Met the Enemy”. He’s now published Part II, and it’s just as insightful as Part 1. Bachman is not the first and won’t be the last to point out the irony that
Washington Post reporter Jon Swaine emailed me on Thursday April 29, 2021, with a list of questions about my interview of Russ Ramsland on my AmericaCanWeTalk show. Mr. Ramsland has appeared on the show several times, but I believe the focus of Mr. Swaine’s interest is on Mr. Ramsland’s appearance
We’ve previously drawn attention to Bill Whittle, here. But you owe it to yourself and your friends, family and neighbors to watch and listen to Whittle’s commentary in his “Right Angle” session on “A Theologian’s Prayer: “Dear God, Please Help Me to Hate White People“. Whittle’s history lesson on real
We’ve previously acknowledged the talents of Bill Whittle…his latest, “Hooray for Holly Who?” derives optimism from the data in this tweet: Whittle’s point is that despite what seems to be a leftist takeover of all of America–led in part by Hollywood–the Oscar ratings trend suggests just the opposite.
