We all know the saying, “keep Austin weird” as if that is some moniker of pride in the capital city of the Lone Star State. It was just recently decided by the Austin City Council to allow homeless individuals to erect tents downtown. We have previously reported on the Autonomous…
Against the recommendation from our nation’s armed forces, some in Congress are once again trying to downscale the size and scope of the American military. Only this time, they are facing stiff resistance from perhaps their greatest political adversary: reality. On August 1, 2019, the Department of Defense released a…
The departure of National Security Advisor John Bolton from the Trump administration can hardly have come at a worse time. America’s enemies loathed and feared him, because he was clear-sighted, experienced, and tough.

The energy industry is waging war against climate change, and winning. In late August, the Environmental Partnership, a group of oil and gas firms dedicated to cutting greenhouse gas emissions, released its first annual progress report.

Bernie Sanders has made an odd calculation in his quest for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination. He all-but-ceded support from Jewish Democrats during the weekend by announcing anti-Semitic activist Linda Sarsour again will serve as a campaign surrogate. When Sanders embraced Sarsour’s support during the 2016 campaign, we showed how her rabidly anti-Israel views…
It is a fair question to ask: why are so many of our large American cities failing, especially in the areas of crime and gun violence? Recently, we have shared with you stories of delusional deranged progressive socialist leftist obfuscation when it comes to the cities that they control, and…
Virtually every aspect of American national security, including the detection of threats, the use of weapons, the deployment of forces and their resupply, is now dependent on the integrity of critical space-based capabilities. In defense parlance those systems are known as command, control, communications, computing, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (C4ISR)…
