The concept of the "big lie," articulated by Adolf Hitler, suggests that large falsehoods are more readily believed than small ones.   This communication strategy has infiltrated various aspects of society, leading to widespread acceptance of fabrications, particularly concerning beliefs about God, gender identity, and the nature of government. Key Points 1.   Decline of Religious Belief: • There has been a notable decrease in church attendance in the U.   S., with membership dropping from around 73% in 1937 to between 37% and 63% in recent years. • Many individuals now identify as agnostic or believe there is no God, viewing creation narratives as myths. 2.   Rejecting Truths About Creation: • A growing number of people accept scientific explanations for human existence (e.g., evolution) despite a lack of fossil evidence. • The belief that humans and the universe were created by a Supreme Being is dismissed, leading to a denial of spiritual truths. 3.   Gender ...

 A sharp and comprehensive critique of the Democratic Party’s transformation since the election of Barack Obama in 2008. It argues that the party’s increasing alignment with elite, globalist, and identity-based ideologies has alienated the American middle class—once its core constituency. Through vivid examples and biting commentary, the author suggests that Democratic policies on immigration, race, crime, gender, climate, and education have become incoherent, elitist, and deeply unpopular, even among traditional Democratic voters. The author traces how the party shifted from a Clinton-era platform of centrism and working-class advocacy to a radicalized agenda dominated by DEI ideology, climate alarmism, and a disdain for traditional American values and institutions. Key failures include the open-border immigration stance, the embrace of transgender ideology in sports and education, the vilification of law enforcement, and the ideological corruption of universities. These, the auth...

 Autopen Debate - Discussions about using the autopen to sign President Biden’s name on official documents often miss the main point: Is it a forgery? Presidential Signature and Authority - Many presidential actions require a signed document to be effective. - The 2005 Department of Justice opinion states the president does not need to sign personally; delegating the signing is allowed. - The signature serves as evidence that the president exercised power, but it's not the act itself. Key Questions Regarding Presidential Action - The crucial question is not about the signature method but whether the president authorized the signing of the document. - Exclusively presidential powers, like pardon authority, must be exercised by the president. Forgery Definition and Implications - Forgery involves creating or altering documents to deceive or defraud. - The key issue is whether the White House used the autopen to forge President Biden’s signature. Legal Context of Forgery - There is no...

  Jeffrey Epstein Case: What We Know, What We Don't, and the Reluctance to Release More The case of Jeffrey Epstein, a financier and convicted child sex offender, has been a thorn in the side of various political figures and institutions, particularly the Trump administration. Despite his death under mysterious circumstances while in custody, the public remains captivated by the story and the theories it fuels about blackmail, intelligence operations, and deep political coverups. Epstein's association with the world's most powerful and influential figures only adds layers of intrigue to the case. His private jet, famously dubbed "The Lolita Express," carried high-profile names like Bill Clinton and Donald Trump, both of whom have distanced themselves from Epstein after his arrest. His death, ruled a suicide by the authorities, has not stopped the rampant speculation surrounding his activities, from the idea that he was operating a blackmail scheme to the notion th...

Cloud Seeding Controversy: The Texas Floods and Its Aftermath The recent catastrophic flooding in Texas Hill Country, which took the lives of 135 individuals, has prompted a series of investigations into the role of cloud seeding in exacerbating the region’s weather. The Texas floods have shone a spotlight on Augustus Doricko’s Rainmaker Technology Corporation, which was involved in cloud seeding operations days prior to the floods. Although Doricko and state authorities maintain that there is no direct connection between cloud seeding and the floods, persistent public concern has brought the practice into focus, with some even blaming it for the severe weather. Understanding Cloud Seeding: Cloud seeding is a weather modification technique where small particles like silver iodide and table salt are released into the clouds, inducing rain. Doricko’s company performed a scheduled operation 130 miles away from the flood zone, aimed at replenishing aquifers, not to manipulate the weathe...

  The Left's Downward Spiral – A Stark Critique of Progressive Overreach In this provocative and insightful critique, the author dissects the dramatic shift in the Democratic Party following the election of Barack Obama in 2008. The once-middle-class championing party has morphed into a self-destructive force, alienating its traditional base while embracing policies that cater to elite bicoastal progressives, open-borders radicals, and intersectional ideologies. The critique spans various key issues, from the embrace of illegal immigration and the redefinition of civil rights to the rise of wokeism and the crumbling influence of American institutions. The core argument centers on how the Democratic Party has abandoned its roots, severing its connection with the middle class while elevating policies that threaten to destabilize the social and economic order. The piece is both a historical analysis and a contemporary lament for a party that once represented pragmatic liberalism but...

 Mollie Hemingway’s recent appearance on FOX News, as reported by Real Clear Politics, sharply criticizes the liberal media for their role in perpetuating the Trump-Russia collusion narrative in 2016 and their current silence on explosive revelations from DNI Tulsi Gabbard’s declassified report. Hemingway argues that outlets like The Washington Post and The New York Times were complicit in spreading false leaks from Obama administration officials, particularly John Brennan, while ignoring evidence that downplayed Russia’s election meddling. This aligns with the broader narrative of accountability emerging from Gabbard’s report and Devin Nunes’ claims about a “grand conspiracy” within intelligence agencies. Hemingway’s assertion that the media’s current reluctance to cover these developments stems from their complicity raises serious questions about journalistic integrity and bias. The Gabbard report, as analyzed by Jeff Childers, Matt Taibbi, and Margot Cleveland, confirms that the...

 This recent GAO report and related developments offer a sharp reality check on the state of America’s EV infrastructure ambitions—and they reveal deep cracks in both policy execution and partisan priorities. Here’s a brief breakdown and analysis of the key takeaways and their broader implications: $7.5 billion allocated in 2021 via the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) to build a national EV charging network. As of April 2025, only 384 public charging ports have been installed under the NEVI and CFI programs. The original Biden-era goal: 500,000 charging ports by 2030. President Trump, in his second term, has halted disbursement of funds for EV chargers as part of a broader shift away from Biden-era green energy priorities. FHWA (Federal Highway Administration) is now reviewing whether EV infrastructure aligns with the new administration’s energy policies. EV sales declined 3.5% in June 2025 year-over-year; future growth uncertain without government subsidies or infras...

 Devin Nunes' Claims on Intelligence Misconduct and Security Clearances Devin Nunes, former House Intelligence Committee Chairman and current head of the President’s Intelligence Advisory Board (PIAB), has made bold assertions about misconduct by intelligence and law enforcement officials involved in investigations targeting Donald Trump over the past decade. In an interview with Just the News on July 24, 2025, Nunes described these actions as a "grand conspiracy" and referenced a dozen criminal referrals made during his tenure as House Intelligence Committee Chairman. His comments, combined with the recent declassification of documents by DNI Tulsi Gabbard and developments in the Jeffrey Epstein case, underscore a broader narrative of accountability for alleged abuses of power. However, the feasibility of prosecutions and the implications of revoking security clearances raise complex legal and ethical questions. Nunes’ claims center on the so-called "Russia hoax,...
