There are a number of TV series that I have enjoyed a great deal and that I have watched from end to end on many occasions. The BBC’s Elizabeth R, with Glenda Jackson (far more magisterial and impressive as Great Bess than she ever was during her peevish twenty-three years as an MP) and I […]
If any of you folks are unaware of the existence of Pat Condell, it’s time for introductions. A videoblogger extraordinaire, he brings biting wit, sarcastic charm, and clear freedom-loving rhetoric that only be found in the British Isles. And he’s been at it for a long, long time. Here is his latest, and here is […]
Yet another contribution gratis Rich Sugden: For those interested in the recent spate of accidents involving Boeing’s newest 737 variant, the real story of what is going on behind the scenes is largely not being reported.It was interesting to note that President Trump alluded to the problem in a round about way, but unless you […]
There are major things happening right now that the media could care less about reporting. Flyover Americans are suffering. Our “betters” in the media industry continue to prove every day why this site and others like it need to succeed. I read this in American Thinker, and the news probably is being presented on other […]
Below is compliments of fellow Bill Whittle member and pilot, Rich Sugden: MCAS Certification Flawed: Report RUSS NILES The Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation (MCAS) system at the center of investigations into two fatal crashes of the Boeing 737 MAX 8 was misunderstood and mischaracterized in a flawed certification process as Boeing and […]
(updated) Senator Elizabeth Warren, socialist Democrat from Massachusetts, reveals her inner liar with astounding clarity this morning. The twit tweets: Every vote matters. We need to get rid of the Electoral College so that presidential candidates have to ask every American in every part of the country for their vote, not just those in battleground […]
NASA Administrator Bridenstine met with Elon Musk, CEO of SpaceX, and the four astronauts scheduled to fly on the new Crew Dragon capsule, just prior to the launch of the very successful Demo-1 mission. Bridenstine chats a bit with Musk about how close SpaceX came to not existing, and then brings in Doug Hurley, Mike […]
I would like to clear up a question about communications companies which was not addressed in the video “Break Up Ma Facebook: Will Conservatives Join Sen. Warren’s Crusade?” Companies which provide information to consumers are of two basic types, in the eyes of US law. The first is called a content provider. A content provider […]
KOMO is the ABC affiliate in Seattle and they just did a brutally honest hour-long special on the homeless problem in Seattle. I lived in Seattle for 15 years, and consider it my hometown. It’s heart-wrenching to see what it has become. Oh: Last Republican mayor in Seattle left in 1969. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b53uiRFq4Ds
With the appearance of a post today by member David Hammack about firearms and firearm rights, I thought I’d drop a post to make known a fascinating resource on the subject of antique weapons. Ian McCollum is an enthusiast on the subject, and I doubt if there’s much you could find in the history of […]
A simple fact, unknown by most people and disbelieved when they hear about it, is that Law Enforcement has no obligation to protect you from crime. Of course, the vast majority of our Law Enforcement (at least those outside of Broward County, FL) are hard working people who take their motto of “Protect and Defend” […]
This sure makes that whole space colonization thing a lot less appealing. Betcha this doesn’t show up in Star Citizen. https://news.sky.com/story/nasa-issues-space-herpes-warning-as-virus-reactivates-in-astronauts-11669335
I will be honestly surprised if the “Mueller Probe” does not outlast the Trump administration itself, however long that lasts. https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2019/mar/17/mueller-probe-pursues-russia-collusion-leads-but-i/
On December 18th, 2018, the chilly air over the Bering Sea was hit by the biggest meteor to strike the Earth since the Chelyabinsk event on February 15th, 2003. Some instruments estimate the yield at approximately 200 kilotons. The meteor came in nearly vertically at roughly 58.6 degrees north latitude by 174.2 west longitude. Peter […]
The current status of American culture approximates one of my favorite quotes from Federalist 57:“… the genius of the whole system; the nature of just and constitutional laws; and above all, the vigilant and manly spirit which actuates the people of America—a spirit which nourishes freedom, and in return is nourished by it.“If this spirit […]
