If you find yourself wondering how we've arrived at our current situation, you're not alone. Taking in the big picture means understanding the decisions that led us here. Antony Davies has written a compelling explanation of the fall of the dominoes and what set them in motion.
Mask mandates and lockdowns are quickly becoming tools in the hands of the power-hungry. Kerry McDonald reports that back-to-school chaos is already ramping us with the quarantining of entire classrooms over isolated Covid cases. She also reminds us that we do have alternatives, if we're willing to exercise them.
It used to be fashionable to laugh at the folks who kept warning us about an impending communist takeover. Now, I'm wondering if we owe them an apology. There's a definite grab for power under the Covid crisis. As Cheryl Chumley explains, we appear to be vaccine-mandating our way merrily toward communism.

As chaotic as things may seem, there's a strong argument for not running for the hills to ride out our coming collision with reality. Isaac Morehouse likens our situation to living in "A Quiet Place" where drawing any attention to ourselves can be dangerous. Morehouse says the solution is to live out loud anyway.
The pressure being brought to bear on those who are not yet vaccinated against Covid-19 is intense. Sometimes it's good to hear a personal exposition of why some choose to abstain from the vaccine. Here is Steve McCann's explanation.
The cancel culture mob is feeling pretty sporty these days. Their irrational hatred and lust to see others suffer can bring out some of our basest tendencies as well. Alexander Riley has a really thoughtful piece on wrestling with justice in the midst of sorrow and loss. It's a powerful insight that's worth considering.

The eviction moratorium that the CDC is seeking to resurrect is a huge warning flag to anyone familiar with Marxist ideals. Charles C.W. Cooke has a detailed explanation of why it's illegal, tyrannical and un-American.
Frederic Bastiat's essay The Law offers a clear definition of legal plunder. If you read The Law and then apply those principles of legitimate government to the proposed Infrastructure bill pending in DC, you should recognize political plunder with a good dose of social engineering thrown in for good measure. Richard M. Ebeling spells it out.
As the quest for state dominance in every area of our lives increases, so will the calls for gun control. Olivia Rondeau and Hannah Cox have an excellent article about the ACLU's claims that the Second Amendment is racist when gun control has the real record of systemic oppression.
Few voices have been as consistent or as clear as Eric Peters in warning us of the coming medical apartheid. His latest article on the inversion of the political left is well worth your time. Now is the time to learn the power of the word "no" in response to their demands. It will soon be too late to grow a spine.

With all the changes taking place around us, there's never been a better time to learn from the lessons of history. Doug Casey has some fascinating historical perspective on currency debasement and cultural degradation.
If government can take your liberty in times of crisis, did you really have it in the first place? Judge Napolitano has a solid Constitutional perspective about freedom in the coming time of madness.

We all know people who seem to live in a perpetual state of crisis. Lately it seems like our societies are being kept in a state of crisis over a virus that is survived by 99% of the people who catch it. Jon Miltimore takes a closer look at how mandates are ramping up even in areas where daily Covid deaths are zero.
I try not to wallow in political news but when I want a solid take on what's going on, it's hard to beat Pat Buchanan. His latest column on America's great leap forward into socialism is on target.
The unfathomable amount of public debt that is being incurred by our government can't be measured in dollars alone. As Jonathan W. Plante explains, the real cost of public debt includes a loss of freedom.
Who is the strongest defender of free speech today? If your first thought was the ACLU, think again. Brittany Hunter spells out how the ACLU has quietly withdrawn from the battle to protect free speech. The good news is that other organizations are stepping up to fill the gap.

The character trait that is most needed during tough times is that of resilience. As Joanna Miller explains, it's essential that we teach our kids to be resilient as well.
It's always a good thing to have clarity about what you stand for. Jeff Thomas does a terrific job of defining liberty.
If you're serious about being able to distinguish between what's sound and unsound, logic is a handy tool. Daniel Lattier has an excellent primer on the 10 habits of logical people. You may even be able to give Sherlock Holmes a run for his money.

It's not a stretch to say that a lot of folks are caught in the grasp of an authentic mania these days. Paul Rosenberg has a marvelous breakdown of what has warped men's souls and why speaking the truth in love is more important than ever.
The growing divide in our society is disturbing on a number of levels. Cheryl Chumley sums up the divide by describing the two America's that are trying to inhabit the same space--the collectivists vs. the individualists.
Back to school time is fast approaching and with it comes another round of teachers unions flexing their political muscles. Kerry McDonald has an excellent article on how the battle this time centers around forcing mandatory masking upon all students, including preschoolers.

Eric Peters himself from Eric Peters Autos joins me for a principled conversation about current events. We talk about the push for vaccine apartheid, the art of the gyp and how the presumption of innocence is being legislated out of existence.
In between pleading with us, bribing us and demanding we do what we're told, those-who-know-best are telling us to "follow the science." Sheldon Richman has an excellent essay revealing how science has taken on the characteristics of religion. And that's not a good thing.
If you're one of the shrinking number of people who have chosen to remain in the control group by abstaining from the vaccine, you've likely been accused of being gripped by an irrational fear. Kent McManigal explains how being accused of having a fear or phobia is just another tool of manipulation used by people with control issues.

When I'm looking for well-sourced and credible information (meaning not attached to a power-seeking agenda), I've come to appreciate the American Institute for Economic Research. Ethan Yang from AIER has an excellent new article about not repeating the same mistakes with the Delta variant.
By now it should be clear that the task of defending freedom is a constant, intergenerational effort. Anders Koskinen correctly identifies a common mistake that many parents are making when their children see them putting politics ahead of faith. The moral clarity required to stand for freedom is always augmented by faith.
Speaking of doing things as a family...one of the greatest activities you can do is to sit down with your kid and help them build their own rifle. I've done it myself and can vouch for J.D. Tuccille's wise advice on the matter.
Ever paid more for an item because it was a name that you associated with quality? Just for fun, let's explore the power of name brands to inspire confidence in us. Art Carden has a brilliant piece that asks, what's in a name? The answer is, quite a lot, actually.

Do you find yourself wondering why your freedoms are evaporating like water droplets from a hot sidewalk? In this episode, we'll take a closer look at how and why this is happening.
A perfect storm of economic trouble, civic decay and geopolitical instability has been developing over the past few years. Thomas Luongo has an excellent summary of where we currently stand. He also warns that we've run out of time to prepare.
Media bias has been a major dynamic in our growing societal chaos. As James Bovard reports, the memo has gone out calling for mass media to become even more biased in a bizzare quest to "save our democracy." No wonder the public's trust in media continues to tank.
The remedy for widespread deceit and misinformation is to choose our language with care. Karen Kwiatkowski has a thought-provoking take on 7 words that curse the state by describing its predation accurately rather than opting for softer euphemisms.
