DC Mayor Bowser Allowed Trump to Take Blame
Mollie Hemingway explains in The Federalist that it was not Donald Trump who used teargas on “demonstrators” across from the White House last summer.

Energy Utopia? Windmills with a Side of Rustoleum
Originally posted March 1, 2018. Wind is free, not to mention clean. So what could be better than inserting windmills offshore, where, unlike Martha’s Vineyard, there apparently are no multi-millionaires who, despite their disdain for fossil fuels, complain about turbines sullying their ocean views? Germany and Denmark are particularly big on this fantasy, a.k.a. “put […]
