one lonely outpost in the ongoing war on intellectually dishonest narrative cultivation
On many levels a broader swath of We the People are starting to catch on to how the anti-American forces that now form our ruling beltway can count on the fully compliant and reliably incurious media to overtly spin to the dictated narratives at all costs. That tool is vital to cultivating reportable polling support …

Last night while I was not watching the speech, I typed of the Cancer of the Soul that is always visible through Joe Biden's face: "May history record that as the face of the emerging American Totalitarianism here in the twenty-first century. It would be well deserved." Little did I know that the handlers of …
(Photo borrowed from Michael Yon somewhere along the line.) Trusted reading sources of the day tell me that, at this very moment, I am likely missing a lecture to the American people from the Dufus in Chief on the state of the American soul: JOE BIDEN, SOUL DOCTOR Tonight Joe Biden will deliver a speech …

“There is one rule that works in every calamity… The rich get richer and the poor get poorer.” – A Will Rogers Treasury, Page 157 I suspect that bit of wisdom holds equally well when the currency is “liberty” as when it is good, old American dollars as Mr. Rogers intended. Under this updated model, …
As I was struggling to stand-up this little outpost I knew that early on I was going to have to dig into the concept of muddleheaded thinking. Since I am using (and abusing) the meaning of the word for my own purposes, I will specify the phenomenon I am focused on as Conservative Muddleheadedness - …
Instapundit informs us this morning (yet again) that A MAJORITY OF AMERICANS SEE THE FBI AS BIDEN’S PERSONAL GESTAPO, AND NOT WITHOUT REASON with a topic not unfamiliar to this blogger. In fact, it was referenced just eight days ago in a post here titled Skimming the Totalitarian Playbook…and Connecting a Few Dots. But is …

The real history of our time, if it were ever to be written, would not be very kind to many departments and agencies of the modern Progressive administrative state.

Taking a break from today’s casual reading - A Will Rogers Treasury (1983) – to pass on a few semi-random thoughts for the day with more than a little assistance from Mr. Rogers. The first comes from 1927 when Rogers had arranged and performed in benefits for victims of severe Spring flooding of the lower …
There is much we don’t know yet about the FBI RAID on Trump's residence earlier this week but there is a line through the cloud of data points we do have that seems rather obvious to me. Of course, I am cursed with a long memory for such things and at least an ounce of …

It seems a good time to mark this point in history: Trump says Mar-a-Lago home in Florida 'under siege' by FBI agents (H/T Instapundit) and The FBI And DOJ Criminalizing Opposition To The Regime Is How The Republic Ends A two-tier justice system is not a justice system. It is a totalitarian system. Its purpose …
