In rural Georgia, school administrators are encouraging teachers and other school employees to arm themselves. With schools spread far and wide in the sparsely populated county of Laurens, it could take a long time for police to engage an intruder at the schools. Those minutes could equate to many lives.

Can Russia Cause a U. S. Electric Grid Blackout?
At the American Spectator, Betsy McCaughey explains how Russian hackers can shut down the U.S. power grid remotely. Below is an abridged version of her write up: Kremlin-connected cyber criminals are capable of turning off our electric power from afar, while power plant employees watch helplessly. In the last two weeks, the federal Department of […]
Saudi Crown Prince Tired of Western Lectures on Values
At The American Conservative, Pat Buchanan asks, “is it any of Canada’s business whether Saudi women have the right to drive?” He writes: Well, Foreign Minister Chrystia Freeland just made it her business. Repeatedly denouncing Riyadh’s arrest of women’s rights advocate Samar Badawi, Freeland has driven the two countries close to a break in diplomatic relations. […]
The New York Times: Applying Different Standards to Different Groups

The Vindication of Justice Clarence Thomas
With the Left’s continuing primal screams and desperation tactics, Steven Hayward, reckons that something more fundamental is going on: “the growing vindication of the constitutional originalism of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.” Liberals have always dismissed Thomas as simply Scalia’s wingman, though no one who actually read with any care their separate opinions, concurrences, and […]
Progressive Government Destroys N.Y., California and Illinois
Move your business from these three nightmare states. Are you getting murdered by brutal taxes or just plain murdered, as in Chicago. The overall business climate in California, New York, and Illinois, as well as in the anti-2nd Amendment, and anti-growth policies of the nine Progressives running these three “train wrecks” is in a […]
Are You OK with One Matushka Fruitbomb?
The American Conservative’s Rod Dreher try’s to make sense of this head scratcher. In Russian Orthodox Christianity, the wife of a priest is called “matushka,” an endearment that means “little mother.” The Evangelical Lutheran Church of America does not have the same term, but it looks like the congregation that the celebrated Rev.
