The Militia Is More Important Than Ever

by Scott McPherson February 9, 2022

A minor revolt may be brewing in Canada.

Liberals’ Love Affair with Leviathan

by James Bovard February 1, 2022

The election of Joe Biden as president magically transformed all federal agencies, ensuring that their iron fists no longer posed any peril to the American people. Or at least that seems to be what many Biden supporters, liberals, and Democrats now believe. I stumbled upon that new catechism on a cold morning last November.

Time to Put Uncle Sam on a Diet
