  • [Did I miss any of our commenters noting the evil Democrats led by Bumblebrain handing out Social Security cards (numbers) to millions of illegal aliens over the last four years?  Most of these were also accompanied by drivers’ licenses and get-Medicare-free cards.  All this activity to bolster Democrat voter ranks was made public by DOGE…

  • [Nobody seems to know how to address the issue of federal district judges assuming executive branch prerogatives from the bench.  Both Right and Left are haranguing each other on the question of who, the President or the judge, is actually abiding by the laws of the land.  The proper way to approach the solution here…

  • [‘Making English Our National Language Is One Step Toward A More Unified Country’ is a true statement, and long overdue.  I grew up in a bilingual environment, speaking only Estonian at home with my parents.  But we all recognized the importance of speaking English as one of the main bonds unifying us as Americans with…

  • ["OpenAI announced a partnership with Estonia to roll out ChatGPT Edu in all secondary schools, starting with 10th and 11th graders by September 2025, as part of the country’s AI Leap 2025 initiative to provide free AI tools and teacher training." (more here)  And now for a bit of levity, enjoy this.  gjr]

  • [I'd be interested in readers' comments regarding the information content of today's interminable news conferences during which dozens of bureaucrats high and low take turns expressing their compassion and prayers for the victims, describing how hard everyone in their department/agency is working, how smoothly every level of government is coordinating with every other, and admonishing…

  • [Well, the congressional Repubs can really futch up President Trump and the country if they don't settle quickly on selecting a Speaker.  Operational competency of our political parties is in the toilet.  The Dems have historically led the way, but the Repubs are doing their best to now take the title.  gjr]

  • [Union columnist Darrell Berkheimer posted a good piece here in today's (14dec24) edition of the newspaper on 'Our slide toward ignorance' – worth a read.  gjr]

  • [Democrats and their media mouthpieces are having a hell of time figuring out why Kamala lost, having forgotten their own dismal assessments of the cacophonous cackler.  And to add to the comedy of Left, there is still a contingent of progressives who are contemplating various political futures for the woman.  None of them understand how…
