State Representatives Karin Power (Milwaukie), Anna Williams (Hood River), and Rachel Prusak (West Linn) recently announced they would not seek reelection because the job takes too much time and doesn’t pay enough. Much of the public discussion since then has focused on the fact that Oregon legislative pay is roughly $33,000/year plus $151 per day […]
The Associated Press recently floated a story about the decline of the Democrat Party brand in rural and near-rural areas of the United States and attempted to lay that decline at the feet of the party itself, as if it is a separate entity from rank-and-file Democrats themselves. Of course, to a large extent, this […]
“Democrats are bad people, but they stick together.” —President Donald Trump. How many occasions did we hear the former president say some variation on this? It was part of his stump speech, and the admonition behind the words only grew stronger as his besieged term in office unfolded. It became an unremitting truth when Dems […]
Even though among the darkest and coldest months of the year, we have much to celebrate this December. Although plagued by problems made worse by an elderly and inept President, American freedoms and wealth remain largely intact. And we seem increasingly resolved to confront our problems, instead of letting them get worse as some pretend […]
Democrats inflate the Federal labor force almost as reliably as they inflate our money supply. In effect, they print new job positions the same way they print new dollars, with total disregard for their declining value. Whether more government workers are actually needed or not has no bearing on this process, because each new Federal […]
On the evening of November 3rd 2020, most of us went to bed, concluding that, for better or worse, President Trump had been re-elected. Florida and Ohio not only had Trump leading, but amazingly he was leading by double-digits in both States; during the past 70+ years — whichever political party had this level of […]
You see it. You feel it. It’s as plain as the nose on your face: There is no going back, in terms of back to whatever it was that we all considered to be normal in America—indeed, in this entire world. And that’s okay—it’s better than okay. Holy Bible Prophecy shows us that things currently […]
Time for an update on all of the crazy goings-on in the world this day. Let’s try to decipher things once again, as we anxiously await having righteousness blessedly restored—and more importantly as we eagerly anticipate the Rapture of all Believers in Jesus Christ, Believers that He was the Son of God who died for […]
One threatens our democracy, the other promises hope for economy, environment and country. We’ve heard about “nuclear options” since Harry was still Senator Reid. America now faces two major nuclear options: one involves political power, the other power to run an energy-dependent economy. In the political arena, President Biden and his allies are already going […]
In a rather heated recent blogger exchange, one correspondent observed that the legitimacy of our November election was so obvious that those claiming the vote counting was fraudulent or otherwise illegitimate should be legally silenced. In reply I asked which faction he would advise a newly arrived observer from Mars to believe. Should the Martian […]
