I haven't had much time to post lately, but I wanted to at least jot down a few brief thoughts, so here are some questions and observations.

I have a few questions and observations.

-Five months after the leak of the Dobbs opinion, we still have no information on the leaker.  The MSM has long since dropped following it faster than they dropped the Las Vegas shooter or the Nashville Christmas bombing.  Why haven’t we heard from Chief Justice Roberts on the matter?

-Led by Iranian women, the country is experiencing the most serious rebellion against the mullahs since the Green Revolution.   After the death of Mahsa Amini (like the death of Neda Agha-Soltan in  at the hands of the “morality police,” Iran has exploded once again with young women protesting, burning their hijabs, cutting their hair.  Yet the MSM is almost totally silent.

-I predict that the next 18-24 months will witness a liberal/conservative convergence.  Tulsi Gabbard leaving the Democratic party was consequential.  It has already begun, mostly with Jewish progressives that have been canceled.  Maud Maron, Bari Weiss, Bret Weinstein, among other sensible progressives are leading the way in rejecting much of the Woke agenda.  I see much more of this coming.

-The biggest false phrases--- systemic racism, gender affirmation, voter suppression, toxic masculinity.  They describe nothing and are fraudulent labels placed on things that simply do not exist.  They are cute, clever and deceptive.  They describe nothing.

-BLM leader Patrisse Cullors absconded with millions of “donations” for her own enrichment.  No one can name a single scholarship or professor at an HBCU endowed by BLM, or any meaningful project whatsoever that actually improved black lives.  Why hasn’t a single attorney general gone after her? 

-We have lost the capability of learning from our mistakes.  In Iraq, we learned to our chagrin what happens when you leave a security gap.  Others quickly fill the void.  In Iraq’s case, ISIS occupied the space that a security force occupied.  Not content to blunder in someone else’s society, we decided to repeat the folly in our large cities by defunding the police.  What we got was warlords.   The lesson is that when you defund the police, you don’t get no police; you get different police.  And you won’t like them.

-At one time, I held college professors in higher esteem than I did farmers and truck drivers.  What a terrible mistake in judgment about who contributes more to society.

That’s all, folks.
