Regressives cherish an utterly sophomoric myth, that the problem with modern society is guns. If we could just get rid of guns, they think, society would once again be peaceful and harmonious, and everyone would get along famously. But the problem in modern society is not guns, it is people. The left thinks that guns […]
One of the most pernicious distortions of the plain meaning of the Constitution is the conceit that U.S. citizenship automatically belongs to anyone born in America. It doesn’t. A correct interpretation and application of the 14th Amendment makes this clear. This amendment, ratified in 1868, was enacted for one simple purpose: to grant citizenship to […]

And that is true only in the sense that one might attempt to eat […]
Critics from both left and right are all over Jeff Sessions for his decision to revoke an Obama-era executive order on marijuana. It ordered the Department of Justice to turn a blind eye to pot production, transportation, and sales in states that have legalized recreational use of weed. There are several important issues involved here. […]
Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan are flogging Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi at every opportunity for being obstructionists and for wanting to shut the government down. (The truth is that only about 83% of the government actually shuts down when the government “shuts down”, which is why I’ve put the phrase in quotation marks. Social […]
Last Thursday, it is alleged, President Donald Trump referred to certain third world countries as dung holes. In context, he wanted to know why Democrats insist on accepting immigrants exclusively from places of poverty and ignorance, where the governments are cesspools of corruption and the streets are open sewers. Trump did not have to wait […]
Some may ask, what is the Fourth Estate and what does it have to do with our freedom? The term “fourth estate” has various definitions.
