We are in the midst of Trump’s mop up operation.Decades of neglect and Trump is refurbishing America, room by room.There are two things you should do in all your decisions.First, think about the opposite side of your viewpoint.Second, take your viewpoint to its logical conclusion.You do these two things and you can likely find the…
My wife was telling me the story of a European person asking why America was spending so much time and energy trying to recover one pilot. https://x.com/Arrogance_0024/status/2040700125882859864My immediate response was, “If you have to ask that question, you have no idea what it means to be a real American.”I love that my kneejerk response was…
The contrast between Republicans and Democrats and how things get handled is so sharp it practically glows in the dark. Imagine, for a moment, if these exact same stories had even a whiff of conservative involvement. You wouldn’t need a microscope to find the outrage. You’d need earplugs.But instead, we get this strange theater where…
You can learn a lot about a political narrative by what it refuses to remember.Spend even a modest amount of time researching birthright citizenship, and you’ll quickly notice something peculiar, almost surgical in its omission. The conversation rarely begins where it should. Instead of grounding itself in the brutal, undeniable reality that gave rise to…
There’s a moment in every bad decision where reality finally sends you an invoice. Not a warning, not a polite reminder, but a full, itemized bill with interest, late fees, and a little note at the bottom that reads: “We tried to tell you.” That’s where we are right now in America. Not in theory.…
My track record is making 2026 look less like a year… and more like a script I’ve already read.But I digress. Remnants of my first segment. There was a time when people climbed Mount Everest to find themselves. Now it turns out, some folks are climbing Everest so someone else can find their insurance policy.Think…
Stability emerges not from perfection but from accumulated wisdom.Predictability, in this sense, becomes a virtue. A conservative neighbor pays his bills, fixes his roof, raises his children, and rarely announces himself as history’s greatest hero for doing so. Achievement is understood as responsibility fulfilled, not identity constructed.This humility stems from an uncomfortable recognition: human beings…
This year I reflected much more than normal on my brother’s birthday, mostly likely because I lost Buster, my family pet.Kirk and I grew up on a huge ranch, and we were very close. We did everything together from chores, to hunting, fishing. Where there was one there was the other.As we get older, I…
Hunter Biden hasn't sold any art lately, or did I miss the sale?For example, where is E. Jean Carroll? This woman was all the rage when Democrats targeted Trump. Google her and you find NOTHING new. Consider all the aspersions the Left casted against Trump, and what are the outcomes?Why has there been almost no mention…
Gravity worked. Effort mattered. Boys were boys, girls were girls, and if your neighbor built a better fence, you complimented him instead of filing an emotional grievance with the Department of Feelings. Life wasn’t perfect, but it was comprehensible. Cause produced effect. Actions carried consequences. The universe ran on rules sturdy enough to survive disagreement.Then…
