Democrats' privilege at the DOJAdriana Cohen: It's good to be a Democrat. You get favorable treatment by the U.S. Department of Justice -- especially when it comes to the handling, or mishandling, of classified information. You get to evade prosecution and early morning raids by dozens of armed FBI agents at your home, like what happened to former President Donald Trump last month. And then, years later if you're Hillary Clinton, you get to rewrite history, spread misinformation to your millions of Twitter followers and not get censored or banned by Big Tech, which holds conservatives to a totally different ... read more

The climate is not as fragile as some believeBjorn Lomborg: It’s easy to believe that life on Earth is getting ever-worse. The media highlight one catastrophe after another and make terrifying predictions. With a torrent of doom and gloom about climate change and the environment, it’s understandable why many people — especially the young — genuinely believe the world is about to end. The fact is that while problems remain, the world is in fact getting better. We just rarely hear it. We are incessantly told about disasters, whether it is the latest heatwave, flood, wildfire or storm. Yet the data overwhelmingly shows that o... read more

The Queen is dead, the King is confused. God save the people.
I am sorry to hear of the Queen's passing. She served that calling well for many years. Normally when the King or Queen dies, they say the Queen is dead, long live the King meaning long live their successor. However, right now there is a huge concern on the table that we must address. It is the elephant in the room. God save the Queen, or in this case, God save the King is the national anthem for England. Only now that prayer has become God save the King from himself and the tyrant he is in bed with. The unofficial anthem for England is Jerusalem. After all, Charles is a descendan... read more

Inflation: State-Sponsored Terrorism
Remember the quaint old days of 2019? We were told the US economy was in great shape. Inflation was low, jobs were plentiful, GDP was growing. And frankly, if covid had not come along, there is a pretty good chance Donald Trump would have been reelected. At an event in 2019, my friend and economist Dr. Bob Murphy said something very interesting about the political schism in this country. He said: If you think America is divided now, what would things look like if the economy was terrible, if we had another crash like 2008? Well, we might not have to imagine such a scenario much lo... read more

DOJ warns judge that delaying the FBI’s Trump investigation is a national security risk
Former president Donald Trump speaks to supporters at a rally to support local candidates at the Mohegan Sun Arena on September 3, 2022, in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. | Spencer Platt/Getty Images The Justice Department files an extraordinarily savvy response to the Trump judge’s “special master” order. On Monday, Judge Aileen Cannon — a Trump appointee to the federal bench — issued a surprising order that effectively halted much of the Justice Department’s criminal investigation into classified records it recovered last month from former President Donald Trump.

Reminders of Lakeside
Yesterday I bought some long stem sunflowers at Kroger, but when I looked in our cabinets, I didn't like the choices of vases. Instead I cut the stems and selected a small blue bowl made by our Lakeside friend, Ed Day, who died in 2020. I think Ed and Happy had a sale when they moved from Dayton to Lakeside after retirement. That's probably how I happened to have it. It's inscribed on the bottom with his name and date.
