“Net Zero” is the hot thing among Climate Change zealots and has been for quite a while. The idea is simple: if excessive emissions of CO2 are changing the atmosphere sufficiently to cause undesirable changes in the climate, then we have to quit emitting excessive levels of CO2. The “net” part of Net Zero is […]
With less than 48 hours to go before the New Hampshire primary, it sounds as if Nikki Haley is getting a bit desperate in her bid to unseat Donald Trump as the GOP frontrunner. Speaking at a campaign stop yesterday, Haley invoked Trump’s speech from Friday night where he appeared to confuse her with someone […]
Now that illegal immigration and our wide open southern border has been noticed by just about everyone in the country, suddenly there are random articles here and there about U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) deportations. It’s an election year, you know, and the incumbent is the one who intentionally opened the border. It’s election […]
“Experts” have had a tough go of it lately. Reputationally, I mean. In terms of power, they are at their apotheosis. Experts may lose their power quickly as people turn their backs on them, but then again, if Democrats win, their power will become entrenched further. One of the places in which “trust the experts” […]
Most Jews, statistically speaking, are liberal. My grandmother grew up Jewish, and although she spent most of her life working hard to assimilate, she was, in the end, quintessentially a New York Jewish liberal. My father, who did not grow up Jewish (although his brother adopted the identity), was still classified as a Jew when […]
Even though exactly one state has weighed in officially on whom the Republican nominee should be for the 2024 cycle, by Tuesday in New Hampshire, it will be all over but the shouting. Roughly one out of seven registered Iowa Republicans caucused Monday last, and that’s due to a lot of factors. The weather outside […]
Doggone it! Air travel is hard enough traveling with a two-month-old baby and a little dog. Add an overly-aggressive airline employee into the mix and there is going to be a problem. Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) posted a video on X (formerly Twitter) explaining that a woman named Angela was very abusive to Tara Crenshaw […]
Whatever you think about Donald Trump–love him, hate him, or something in-between–you have to admit that his enemies are much much worse than he. Or, at the least, Donald Trump brings out the very worst from his enemies. Perhaps these people would be otherwise relatively sane, normal people, but exposure to Trump turns them into […]
With only one caucus under our belts, it’s probably far too early to be wading into the veepstakes when we technically don’t even know who the GOP nominee will be. But, as with pretty much everything associated with Donald Trump, this isn’t a typical primary season, so rumors are already running wild. Trump has said […]
This morning’s Gospel reading is Mark 1:14–20: After John had been arrested, Jesus came to Galilee proclaiming the gospel of God: “This is the time of fulfillment. The kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel.” As he passed by the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew […]
