Long-form argument on faith, the Constitution, and the republic.
Church, Scripture, and the culture war.
Netflix is softening C.S. Lewis's Aslan, but the church defanged its Lion first. All Lamb and no Lion, it stopped influencing the culture and started being influenced by it. Here's what that cost the church and its men, and how to breathe life back in.
The fourth chair doesn't ask you to reject Jesus. It invites you to keep His name while remaking Him in your own image — and in the process, hand authority to the very institutions that want Christ off the throne and the state in His place.
Originalist readings of amendments and rulings.
Six justices ruled against Trump's birthright citizenship order. Only five signed onto the constitutional holding. A close read of what Roberts actually argued, what Thomas's 91-page dissent exposed, and what Congress can no longer fix by statute.
The 17th Amendment broke America's federalist system by eliminating state representation in the Senate. Direct election of senators destroyed the constitutional check on federal power, fueling executive expansion, partisan gridlock, and the administrative state. Time to fix what Progressives broke.
America's interests, enemies, and alliances.
A defense industry veteran told me the Strait of Hormuz was a guaranteed nuclear flashpoint. His wargames said so. Two decades of classified modeling backed it up. He's probably right about 2005. What he hasn't updated is the board. And the board has moved.
The blowback theory assumed the enemy was reacting to what we did. It never asked what happens when they're acting on what they believe — and have been telling us so for 45 years.
Wilson promised peace, Truman promised order—we got an $18B collective hostility. Lodge warned in 1919 that surrendering sovereignty would fetter American power. He was right. Time to defund this farce.
Maduro arrest: the right call—legally, strategically, morally. The foreign policy establishment is melting down because Trump proved everything they believed about American power was wrong. The Monroe Doctrine isn't dead. America has spine again without endless wars.
Taxes, housing, energy, and the cost of living.
California’s housing crisis is no accident. Sacramento rigs the rules to keep homes scarce and prices high, then turns “affordability” programs like Dream For All into a way to skim your equity while staying financially dependent on inflated values.
A labor union's proposed wealth tax hasn't even made the ballot—but it's already triggered a $1T billionaire exodus from CA. The math shows every remaining household could absorb $576–$1,742/yr in higher taxes and cuts. The Laffer Curve isn't theory. It's happening in real time.
Chamath Palihapitiya proposes a $300–500B tax equity fund leveraging OBBBA incentives to put solar-plus-storage on 50–100M U.S. homes, slashing power bills while adding 400–800 GW of distributed capacity and shifting grid room to AI and industry.
California: $24B on homelessness, 53% increase. $15B on rail, zero miles built. Wealth tax triggered $1T billionaire exodus. Top 1% pay 50% of income taxes—when they leave, you pay. Demand a forensic audit before California gets another dollar.
California and New York are betting they can tax and scold tech and finance without losing them. David Sacks argues they’re wrong—and that Austin and Miami are where capital, innovation, and the future of American prosperity are already moving.
Property taxes challenge true homeownership, sparking debate over fairness, generational wealth, and individual rights. Florida’s proposed reforms highlight tensions between older homeowners and policies intended to help new buyers.
Ive been frustrated lately hearing both politicians and citizens talking about raising taxes on the rich as viable source of sustainable income for the government to help curtail its debt issue.
I am currently baffled as to how government in general explains the unemployment rate to the great people of this nation.
The playbooks and personalities of illiberalism.
Evita was a warning about how a beautiful “voice of the people” can sell a hard edged state. AOC is not Eva Perón, but the style she embodies, and the power grabs her movement normalizes, may be writing America’s own soft on ramp to illiberal rule.
Lincoln warned America could only die by suicide. Today, revolutionary frameworks taught in universities—Alinsky, Cloward-Piven, The Coming Insurrection—are being applied as official policy by governors and DAs. This isn't governance failing. It's revolution succeeding.
How to win the fights worth winning.
McKinney's mosque vote was decided weeks before the outrage arrived. This piece argues conservative leadership means aiming energy at fights that can actually be won: zoning code, utility districts, funding disclosure, not just the ones that make headlines.
Political purists win arguments while the country loses ground. This piece makes the case for judging candidates by one standard: do they actually move the Overton window toward liberty in the real world, or just polish their reputation with perfect “no” votes?
1. Lost jobs because even as fast as some people are going solar it isnt enough to change the dependence on regular electricity.
The weight of the America is in the hands of a single generation.
