Rep. Chris Smith (R-N.J.) said that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) forcibly harvests organs from Falun Gong practitioners while still alive, because of their excellent health, and transplants them into elderly CCP officials to extend their lives. The Stop Forced Organ Harvesting Act of 2023 (H.R. 1154), drafted by Smith, is currently being presented to…

Social Isolation Bad for Social Mammals–Who Knew?
Commentary Prairie voles were not meant to go through life alone. For those who have not had the privilege of meeting one, a prairie vole is a diminutive rodent autochthonous to the grasslands of the central parts of North America and best characterized as wrong-looking gerbils with rambunctious souls. A favorite snack of coyotes, hawks,…
The Energy Transition Is a Delusion Indeed
Commentary The “energy transition” continues to receive thunderous applause from all the usual Beltway suspects, an exercise in groupthink fantasy amazing to behold. For those with actual lives to live and thus uninterested in silliness: The “energy transition” is a massive shift, wholly artificial and politicized, from conventional energy inexpensive (Table 1b and here), reliable, and very clean given the proper policy…
Cory Morgan: Report on NS Massacre Should Have Given Woke Politics a Miss and Stuck With the Facts
Commentary On April 18, 2020, Gabriel Wortman went on a violent 12-hour rampage leaving 22 people dead and three injured in Nova Scotia. The incident was marked with panic, miscommunication, and signs of outright incompetence from the RCMP as they tried to get the situation under control. An inquiry into what happened was needed, and…
Trust, COVID, and the General Who Cried ‘Wolf’
Commentary Once upon a time, there was an Air Force general in the Pentagon who was in charge of all the F-16s in the Air Force, and he found out about a very dangerous problem that the aircraft had developed. He brought in experts from Lockheed Martin and the Depot and they met to determine…

Commentary Human history is a story of forgotten lessons. Despite the catastrophic collapse of European democracy in the 1930s, it appears that the tale of the twentieth century—in which citizens, cowed by existential threats, acquiesced in the rejection of liberty and truth in favour of obedience and propaganda, whilst allowing despotic leaders to seize ever…
Anarcho-Tyranny Unleashed in the United States
Commentary The terms anarchy and tyranny seem like they are in contradiction. Anarchy means no state. Tyranny means nothing but state. What possibly could anarcho-tyranny mean? It’s a phrase coined by the right-Hegelian political theorist Samuel Francis, whose dark worldview was never my cup of tea, to say the least. Even so, he was insightful,…
From Stanford to Israel, Mobocracy Triumphs Over Deliberation
Commentary The very notion of republican self-governance, which has been a core tenet of Western civilization since the demise of the great monarchs of Europe, depends upon the willingness of citizens to debate and deliberate the most pressing issues of society. Sadly, high-profile recent examples, from the tony terrain of Stanford University all the way…
There Are No Banned Books
Commentary While checking out the “banned and challenged” display at my local Barnes & Noble recently, I was reminded that the entire kerfuffle is a giant racket. For publishers and booksellers, “banned” books are likely a money-making racket. Virtually every allegedly “banned” book on the display table is already a massive (sometimes generational) bestseller. Not…
China’s Genocide in Tibet
Commentary The exiled leader of Tibet, Penpa Tsering, said in a hearing on March 28 that his people face a “slow death.” Group death through cultural assimilation, enforced by torture and execution, is more than murder or a crime against humanity. It is genocide, and co-chair of the Congressional-Executive Commission on China (CECC), Rep. Christopher…
