What's behind the full court press to teach critical race theory in our children's schools? Bari Weiss recently shared a letter from a private school parent who has had enough of woke ideology. It's a powerful read.
In a related column, Kerry McDonald shares her thoughts on parents and teachers who are likewise tiring of woke classrooms.
If you ever wanted to have a better grasp of what it means to have courage in the face of tyranny, just try to remain openly committed to the truth. Jeff Minnick reminds us of the courage of Sir Thomas More in resisting tyranny and falsehood.

Political consultant Gary Welch is my guest to discuss the following topics:
- The insanity of politics. How can political figures get away with statements that should be considered insane. How does voting security turns into racist policy? How do they promote that genders do not exist? That men can have children. That trees are representation of racism? That burning and pillaging is okay. Is this really being accepted by the public?
- Is space exploration a good investment of tax dollars? Is NASA something that our federal government should be spending money on?
- China is making threats to Taiwan. What is story behind those threats? Flyovers by military planes and threats that war is preferable than a closer relationship to US is simply strong posturing.

Each week I have the chance to visit with Eric Peters from Eric Peters Autos. We discuss the efforts to keep us in fear and compliant as well as what the political class may have in store for us next.
If you're serious about becoming a better thinker, reading old books is a great place to begin. Grayson Quay has an excellent essay on how great minds like Aristotle still have wisdom to impart--even if they got some things wrong at the time they were alive.
Watching what's playing out in Minnesota as the jury deliberates in the trial of former officer Derek Chauvin is hardly a nail-biter. James Howard Kunstler points out how the movie follows the script and right now, the players are definitely sticking to a script of sorts.
Who really won the 2020 election? Sounds like a loaded question, doesn't it? Lawrence M. Vance says, regardless of the presidential race, the big winner last year was marijuana.

Where did woke corporate America get the idea that politics is everything? Richard Morrison reviews the book "The Dictatorship of Woke Capital" by Steve Soukup who does a great job of connecting the dots. Bottom line, some people think politics should be the overriding force in every part of life. The rest of us want it limited to a very narrow role.
Will woke capital be a lasting influence or simply a fad that comes down as quickly as it went up? Peter C. Earle predicts it is destined to become a relic. The sooner the better.
Today is the anniversary of the shot heard 'round the world. It's a perfect opportunity to reflect upon why armed self defense is essential in a free society. Richard M. Ebeling provides some necessary historical context as well as the principles at stake.
Paul Rosenberg's series on common fallacies is well worth your while. His latest essay has some marvelous advice on recognizing and countering propaganda as well as advertising.

Opportunists and power-seekers have long understood that crisis equals opportunity. Now that the panic is beginning to subside, the opportunists are losing their sway over the public. Brandon Smith warns that now is the time to be very conscious of the next "crisis" that will be used against us.
What happens when we choose to outsource our complex ethical problems to "experts"? Jon Miltimore shares a 75 year old warning about the dangers of being told to "follow the science."
We all thought the world was going to be a better place after eliminating the hidden racism in Dr. Seuss books and on syrup bottles. Nope. The "woke" crusade has only intensified. Where does this kind of absolutist, enemy-driven thinking lead? Robert Bridge explains how "cancel culture" mentality sets the stage for genocide.
If you've been feeling like the pandemic restrictions will never be lifted, take heart! One by one, school districts in my home state of Utah are starting to back off from the mask requirements for all students. Some, however, are digging in their heels and may need firm but peaceful pressure to reconsider.

For all the talk about the evils of Jim Crow, we sure seem to be on our way to implementing something very similar. Of course, these rules are being imposed by the "woke" inmates who've taken over the asylum. Donald Jeffries spells out what this means for the wokeless and second class citizenry.
A bright spot in the otherwise stark landscape of the past year's COVID restrictions has been types of pushback that are taking place. Anders Koskinen describes the toilet paper flagship and other examples of creative resistance.
Isn't it curious that the folks who urge others to "trust the science" are the ones who are being dogmatic? Asking questions is a good thing. As Yaël Ossowski explains, we should be questioning whether the CDC's mask mandate for 2 year olds actually makes sense.
We've all heard the warnings about the dangers of "toxic masculinity" but few people seem to be talking about the downside of boys failing to become men. Annie Holmquist makes the case for why a manly father is good for children.

There's no shortage of outrage out there these days. What's interesting is how much of our outrage is rooted in allowing certain public figures to live rent-free in our heads. I have a few ideas on some productive alternatives to this obsessive behavior.
It looks like the nearly 20 year occupation of Afghanistan is going to come to an end. Strip away the political posturing and it's not hard to see the big whopper we've been fed on this issue. Jacob Hornberger explains who has been lying to us and how.
If you are one of those who has been a principled opponent of lockdowns, you likely sense the noose has been steadily tightening around the dissenters. Joakim Book asks: Is opposing lockdowns seditious? The power-seekers and opportunists certainly seem to think so.

What do we make of the trend for corporate America (including the medical establishment) is now acting as the enforcer for central planners? Glenn Greenwald zeroes in on how the corporatist class is consolidating political power and corrupting our ability to govern ourselves.
Few people have written with deeper insight into human nature than Alexander Solzhenitsyn. Of course, he suffered a great deal in order to gain that wisdom. His warning that the West's rejection of God will end in misery and terror is being validated right before our eyes.
Of all the freedoms currently under attack, the freedom to speak your mind is one of the most important. Tom Pitiak points to an old Frank Sinatra song "The House I Live In" to illustrate how that house has become a hiding place instead.
Happy tax day! Thankfully the filing deadline has been pushed back once again but J.D. Tuccille invites us to enjoy Tax Day 2021. Unfortunately, he also points out that it's not likely to get better from here on.

The past year has been a remarkable example of how so-called "public health" can be leveraged into unimaginable political control of a population. Thomas DiLorenzo has a terrific essay on why 'public health' is the health of the state.
If you find yourself inching toward despair over the deteriorating state of our society, take heart. Jeff Minnick reminds us that one of the best ways to assume control of our lives begins with having gratitude for the things which are going right.
Living in a time where reality itself is under attack can be challenging. Jeff Minnick also has an absolute homerun of a column today on the death of reason in the land of make believe. Very worth your while.
My kids have recently rediscovered the TV show "Dirty Jobs" and as I've watched a few episodes with them, it's clear why Mike Rowe is such a relatable guy. Recently he made a very solid case for why a $15/hour minimum wage will ultimately harm the people it purports to help.

Political analyst Gary Welch joins me to talk about the following topics:
- Michigan has 250% more COVID cases than Florida and 700% more than Texas. Illinois, New York, and New Jersey are also showing significantly higher cases than Florida and Texas, yet those 2 states are being criticized and states like Michigan are being told to close down again.
- Fauchi now saying that even vaccinated people should not be eating indoors until possibly 2022.
- All of Florida Governor Desantis' videos on his policies regarding COVID have been removed from YouTube for "Medical Misinformation". Really?
- BLM
- Brooklyn Center City Manager, Curt Boganey, fired for saying that the officer in the Daunte Wright shooting should have a Due Process. Reason for firing: fear of riots.
- Reporters questioning the Brooklyn Police Chief, Tim Gannon, for using the term "riot" to describe the violence. They actually chastise him for using the term even though he was there and they were not.
- BLM founder and leader Patrisse Kuhn - Cullors just bought 4 homes, one in Topanga Canyon, CA that is worth $1.4M and is in a closed neighborhood that 88% white. She is a multi-millionaire but she uses corporations to fund her. She is an avowed marxist, yet she openly shows her bourgeois tendencies over and over again.
