Over the past few weeks I have been tracking several stories about the coming crisis in the electricity supply. Beege has written quite a bit about the pitfalls of relying on so-called “clean” energy, but there is another side to the coin: the closing down of other forms of electric generating capacity, and the skyrocketing […]
If you watch Fox News on any given evening, you are probably aware that the situation on the southern border is not getting any better. (Of course, if you get all of your news from CNN or MSDNC you probably think everything is fine.) The problem is arguably getting worse, except in parts of Texas […]
Presiding Magistrate Judge Humberto Acosta delivered a ruling on Easter Sunday during an online teleconference bond hearing in which he released hundreds of illegal aliens on their own recognizance. The El Paso judge said that only those with an immigration hold on them will remain jailed. Why did he do that? Acosta said that the […]
My wife is out of town, so my Easter Sunday has been a mix of watching podcasts on YouTube (Mike Rowe is great!) and, stupidly, reading Twitter posts. As I wrote about Friday night, President Biden declared Easter Sunday to be a Trans Day of Visibility (apparently this is now an annual holiday to be […]
In New York City’s East Village, you can find a storied firefighter company known as Ladder Company 11. Their major claim to fame was earned during the 9/11 terror attacks when they were among the first to respond to the scene. Tragically, six of their members were killed when the towers collapsed. In memory of […]
The fall-out from President Biden’s disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan continues. Recent reporting shows the dire situation Afghan women find themselves in at the hands of the Taliban. The twenty-year war in Afghanistan ended very badly for Americans, not to mention the Afghans. Thirteen American military members were killed at the Kabul Airport in a terrorist […]
John has written some excellent pieces on the trouble the Bay Area Rapid Transit System (BART) is in. Perhaps one of the reasons it is doing so poorly–ridership is less than 50% of what it was pre-pandemic–is that the people running the system are, to put it kindly, insane. Workers are clocking in without doing […]
Tonight’s Gospel reading is Mark 16:1-7: When the sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary, the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so that they might go and anoint him. Very early when the sun had risen, on the first day of the week, they came to the tomb. They were saying to one another, […]
As I described a few days ago, residents and business owners in San Francisco have come up with their own plan for dealing with tent camps which crowd the sidewalks and sometimes even block access to doorways. Over the past few years, they have installed heavy steel planters on the sidewalks. The planters weigh up […]
Is this Satanic, or simply childish atheists mocking Christians during the holiest holidays of the year? Probably a bit of both. Having spent more than my share of time around smart, obnoxious atheists who enjoy nothing more than mocking the religious faith of others, I can imagine the late-night bull session with a bunch of […]
