It is almost the same story, time and again. Most people prefer to trust rather than verify, opening the door to fraud, sometimes fraud on an incredible scale. Just a little competent checking might have prevented monumental disasters. Did anyone note the recent passing of one of the most brazen con men of all time: […]
A nation “of the people, by the people, and for the people” will perish from the earth if we do not demand that everyone play by the rules that protect all citizens. That is why we have laws and additional expectations of civil behavior spelled out in the Judaeo-Christian tradition by the Ten Commandments or […]
Suddenly, the world has changed. It seems surreal, and this transformation happened overnight. A pandemic comes onto the world scene, and license is given to run the world a certain way. The globalist way. The Progressive, non-secular way. Why is this happening? And what can we do about it? There is a conniving operator at […]
I absolutely loved Michelle Obama’s presentation at the Democratic Party’s Infomercial Convention. When she carried on about being an oppressed black woman, I rolled in the aisle with laughter. She was speaking to me from her twelve million dollar home on Martha’s Vineyard, off of Cape Cod, Massachusetts. That is one of the wealthiest places […]
There was a time that when I thought of Portland Oregon, I thought of rivers, bridges, fine dining, Forest Park, and so many other idyllic things that made Portland amazing. Friends and family always talked about visiting. Those that did often came back for obvious reasons. I remember telling people that we only let people […]

A stunning picture emerged last weekend as every player of the NBA’s Oklahoma Thunder and their opponents Utah Jazz bowed their knee to Marxism in an anti-patriotic demonstration of solidarity against America. Yahoo Sports stated the players “have largely […]
During our late July heat wave, I was talking with a man who was sweltering, because Portland General Electric had turned off his air conditioner as part of a program to shed load during periods of peak demand for electricity. He was being paid $50 for his trouble. That may sound like a good deal […]
Most of us are very, very tired of the constant barrage of negative news. We realize that it may have some tenuous connection to reality, but is mostly manufactured nonsense, designed to keep us upset until at least the Presidential Election in November. But will it even end then? That is unlikely, because too many […]
George Floyd’s tragic death has led to growing calls for changes to antiquated policing systems. The recent protests asking for police reform over these past few weeks have caused many families to question the systemic discrimination that is hardwired into the assignment of students to public schools. Census data reports U.S. spending per student has […]
America needs Jesus. No greater reminder of that fact can be seen than the recent protests in the streets of the nation. The anger against what happened to George Floyd in Minneapolis last week is justified. The violence and looting that came in the wake of protests is not. A white officer kneeled on the […]
