Eliminating Renewable Energy Subsidies is Key to Boosting Prosperity
Residential electricity prices have steadily increased for years, up more than 15 percent in the United States (not including Texas) since 2004. A newly released U.S. Department of Energy report on electricity markets and reliability makes it clear that renewable energy subsidies are contributing significantly to the increasing cost—and the decreasing reliability—of the national electric grid. Yet the report…
Martin’s King Tut is now Cultural Appropriation
One of the best skits ever produced by Saturday Night Live was Steve Martin’s rendition of the song, King Tut. It made fun of the commercialization of the nationwide King Tut phenomenon sparked by the “Treasures of Tutankhamen” exhibition that toured seven cities from 1976 to 1979, drawing about 8 million visitors. These days, however, the video is…
The Demolition President from Scott Adams
Scott Adams, the creator of Dilbert, put together a GREAT blog on what things President Trump has broken this year. Things, as Adams put it, “that probably needed to be broken.” Here’s a sample: GOP – Trump broke the GOP and reconstructed it along his terms, successfully it seems.

Mark Steyn on California’s Racist Trees
Multiculturism is leading to the dumbing down of America. People today believe things that no sane person of any philosophical bent would believe if not beholden to bowing down to the multicultural alter. One of the primary tenets of multiculturism these days is that whites are racist, every one of them, even if they don’t know it. And…
Harry Reid’s Cronyist UFO Hunt Cost Taxpayers $20 Million
A recent program in the Defense Department for the purpose of understanding “unidentified aerial phenomena” cost taxpayers at least $20 million. The program was initiated by Harry Reid, at the behest of a campaign contributor, when he was still Senate majority leader.

The FBI’s Effort to Undermine American Democracy
“I want to believe the path you threw out for consideration in Andy’s office that there’s no way he gets elected — but I’m afraid we can’t take that risk. It’s like an insurance policy in the unlikely event you die before you’re 40.” That’s what Peter Strzok, one of the FBI’s top Russian counterintelligence…
The Deep State at War with America
As Mark Steyn points out, Roy Moore didn’t lose because of the allegations against him, he lost because he had to run against both the Democrats and Republicans. Mitch McConnell, Chuck Schumer, and their congressional friends aren’t alone in their opposition to anything that would help President Trump and flyover America from wresting control of…
