The crisis at our border has been joined by a crisis at our ports. The Biden Administration can't (or won't) stop people from coming in; but it can't (or won't) allow goods to come in. With inflation growing, and growth slowing down, are we heading for a "bomb cyclone" of a crisis? It sure looks like it.
We'll discuss Biden's politicization of the Justice Department, and the ongoing mess in foreign policy. We'll also discuss ways citizens are responding -- through the school choice movement, for example. And we'll discuss examples of successful governance, like the Trump administration's turnaround of the VA.
Special guests:
Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) - ranking member of the kicking a** committee
Gen. Keith Kellogg (Ret.) - security adviser in the Trump administration
Mike Alexander - Californians for School Choice, on a new ballot initiative
Paul Lawrence - former head of Veterans Benefits Administration under Trump
Lawrence's paperback book is available for purchase and download at Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09DMQZN4N

The story of Noah is familiar; the details, less so.
Noah is often seen as an ambivalent figure. He was righteous -- but only for his generation. What was his deficiency?
One answer suggests itself: knowing that the world was about to be flooded, he built an Ark for the animals and for his own family -- but did not try to save anyone else or to convince them to repent and change their ways (the prophet Jonah, later, would share that reluctance).
Abraham, later, would set himself apart by arguing with God -- with the Lord Himself! -- against the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, saying that they should be saved if there were enough righteous people to be found (there were not).
Still, Noah was good enough -- and sometimes, that really is sufficient to save the world. We don't need heroes every time -- just ordinary decency.
Hi all -- as I noted last month, I'm going to be closing down my Locals page, at least for tips and subscriptions -- I may keep the page up and the posts as well, but I'm no longer going to be accepting any kind of payment.
Look for cancelation in the very near future. Thank you for your support!
An interesting weekend -- one of the last of Daylight Savings Time -- in which there is much to celebrate, much to contemplate, and a bit to worry about.
The Gaza peace deal is shaky, but holding, after the living hostages returned; the shutdown is still going on, with no end in sight; the China trade war is heating up; and the confrontation with Venezuela continues to escalate.
The "No Kings" protest was a dud, despite the media's attempt to inflate it. What I find fascinating is that the Democrats have basically stolen the rhetoric and the imagery of the Tea Party protests, circa 2009. They claim they are defending the Constitution -- just like the Tea Party did.
On the one hand, this is good. How wonderful to have a political system in which both sides, bitterly opposed though they are, articulate differences through the Constitution -- and not, as in so many other countries, outside it.
On the other, this is sheer hypocrisy for the Democrats. Not only did they malign the Tea Party as ...
