Jun 18, 2026 – In my mind's eye, I've always thought of Ohio as being sort of a reddish, purple place. You know, lots of salt-of-the-earth Midwest but not quite Cornbelt folks in the communities around what have always seemed to be pretty liberal cities. Part of that impression had been formed by the...

Jun 24, 2026 – Europe and the United Kingdom have spent the past few days warming up to some pretty unbearable temperatures by anyone's measure, even a retiree who might have moved to Phoenix from Wisconsin to get out of the snow.It's also got a good touch of humidity. This helps make it well-nigh...

Jun 29, 2026 – I don't know if everyone dreams of being president one day. Surely that's part of the American legend. A Rockwell painting if there ever was one, as a mother leans down to soothe her child, sobbing through some sort of grade school disappointment or another. A 'D' visible on a crumpled...

Jun 29, 2026 – I have to admit, I got caught in the framing trap right off the bat.Had a bad case of WHUT...SNARL immediately, as had been intended.

Jun 29, 2026 – We've been watching Europe on the slide for a long time here, with their curious blend of elitist arrogance, authoritarian impulses meeting serfish mentality, all the while wallowing in perpetual denial that any of their choices are not only ill-advised, but flat-out wrong.Things are fine in Europe, the Euros insist,...

Jun 29, 2026 – Well, what ho? What have we here?Another state supreme court (much like Virginia's turned out to be) which *checks notes* followed state law in issuing a determination on the constitutionality of a Democratic scheme.By George, sure looks like it.BREAKING: The Colorado Supreme Court has unanimously blocked a Democratic-backed congressional redistricting...

Jul 2, 2026 – Hey. Remember that chirpy video the commie mayor of New York City dropped on Tax Day this year? Well, he got what he wanted on those ritzy second homes for the folks who can afford them. Again, these have already had both humongous real estate taxes paid when they bought them,...

Jul 2, 2026 – If you read my post on the Great American State Fair on the Mall in Washington, D.C., you probably noticed that temperatures are slightly above the norm (!) for this time of year. If you're me, you've been on the receiving end of Signal chat pictures from Brother Bingley with...

Jul 2, 2026 – Oh, doncha just KNOW I love stories like this.So Trump's organizing committee got the Great American Fair together on the National Mall to celebrate our 250th, and it sounded like a bang-up idea to me.What better way to use all that grassy lovelieness than to have Americans walking all over...

Jul 6, 2026 – Louisiana has always been one of my favorite places, filled as it is - and to the brim - with characters and charm. But even that easy-going land of alligators, charming charlatans, and melodious accents has been shifting back to the right side of the political spectrum after so many...

Jun 20, 2026 – Ever since the May 7 Labour wipeout in the local council elections - elections, mind you, that British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer knew he was on course to get savaged in, so tried mightily to cancel or postpone for one flimsy reason or another until taken to court by...

Jun 19, 2026 – Over two and a half years ago, I was on the warpath against the Lloyd Austin-led Department of Defense.Not just because he was a big, woke doofus, completely undermining and destroying the morale of our armed forces. Like that wasn't bad enough.But the simple fact was, soldiers weren't being fed....

Jun 19, 2026 – It looks as if the public interest in Joe Biden's conversation with his ghostwriter supersedes the Biden family's sincere desire to keep just how compromised the former president was from the public.The redacted version, of course.🚨 A federal judge rejected former President Biden's bid to block the Justice Department from...

Jun 17, 2026 – There is an awfully hinky game of chicken being played in the English Channel right now, and it appears that Putin has found the perfect patsy to take out some of his frustrations on - the toothless tiger that is Great Britain's military. More specifically, the floating detritus in the...

Jun 16, 2026 – Welp.Times are hard for illegal immigrants on the roads. I mean, just look at my story earlier today about a traffic stop in North Carolina that netted Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) un hombre muy malo of Brazilian extraction (and I didn't have time to ask Bingley how to say...

Jun 22, 2026 – Colombians went to the polls for their presidential run-off election yesterday.Fourteen hours or so ago, the Washington Post had a worm on its tongue and was waiting with baited*, horrified breath for what looked to be one of the remaining Leftist South American dominoes to fall to, as they love...

Jun 22, 2026 – The town of Maassluis in the Netherlands, just downriver from Rotterdam, has been settled since about 1340 or so, according to Wiki. It's pretty smallish, with just shy of 34,000 people, give or take a couple of hundred.Being Dutch, on a river and the last town of any size before...

Jun 22, 2026 – This truly awful few minutes occurred this morning on a downtown street in metropolitan Montreal, Canada.WARNING: The videos are incredibly GRAPHIC and difficult to watch.I waited to post this until there was some information on who the gunman was who started firing, and that is just becoming clearer, but unnamed as yet....

Jun 24, 2026 – I've noticed a trend lately when inhuman monsters are collared for inhuman acts of barbarity.The latest dodge for absolving them of culpability for their actions - shoot, even of any notion that there was something inherently wrong with their actions to begin with - is that the accused is claimed...

Jul 6, 2026 – Remember when Trump and eggs were a thing?Eggs were what frustrated, furious Democrats were going to use to bludgeon the newly inaugurated president over the head with.AND LOOK AT WHAT TRUMP HAS DONE TO THE PRICE OF EGGS!!!Trump had been president barely a month when he SIDESTEPPED THE QUESTION ABOUT THE...

Jul 6, 2026 – The more that comes out about this 'accident' on the I-81 in Schuylkill County, PA, the more you just want to scream about the utter waste of it all.44-year-old veteran PA state trooper, Michael Pahira, had a semi-truck pulled over on the right side of the interstate for a routine...

Jul 6, 2026 – We're two months out from the last update I gave you on the Vineyard Wind project, the wind farm just off the Nantucket coast, home to the infamous fettuccine split blade that nearly ruined summer along the New England beaches, and now embroiled in litigation between its two major players,...

Jul 7, 2026 – Well, you can be forgiven if you've entirely forgotten, or if you never knew. Because unless you lived in Florida or voraciously followed all sorts of Republican gubernatorial campaign combat, why on Earth would you remember that name?We here in the Sunshine State, however, light grateful candles that we do...
