Commentary The battle over the operation of the multi-national Enbridge Line 5 pipeline appears to have no end. American anti-energy activists—invigorated by their victory in shutting down the Keystone XL pipeline from Canada—have set their sights on Line 5 and won’t quit until the line is shut down one way or another. Cross-border pipelines could…

Commentary If you want to see what’s wrong with K-12 education in California, a good place to start is Assembly Bill 938, by Assemblyman Al Muratsuchi (D-Torrance). It sets “aspirational funding levels” to “raise wages by 50 percent” for teachers and other school workers by fiscal year 2030-31. Or seven years from the 2023-24 fiscal…

Commentary Call it a joke, call it smoke and mirrors, call it a sales job, call it stupidity, call it whatever you want but please don’t call it a “budget.” Anyone who thinks the latest version of California spending and income figures projected for 2023–2024 by our governor is a budget should really go back…
Reform the Intel Community, End STASI Tactics
Commentary Massive election interference by the U.S. intelligence community to benefit the Democratic Party over the past decade is an actual threat to liberal democracy. Drastic reform is needed to keep our liberties from vanishing behind a veil of secrecy. The community is tasked with protecting the homeland from foreign adversaries. The intel community reportedly…
Release the Manifesto
Commentary On March 27, a transgender lunatic named Audrey Hale shot up a private Christian elementary school in Nashville, Tennessee. The shooter, who tragically killed three adults and three children before being neutralized by well-trained Metropolitan Nashville Police Department officers, was a 28-year-old biological female who had “transitioned” to a public-facing male “gender identity.” Nashville…
John Brennan, Enemy of the People
Commentary The just-released Durham report confirmed that the FBI not only failed to corroborate the Steele dossier, Hillary Clinton’s oppo-doc against former President Donald Trump, but it regularly ignored existing, sometimes dispositive, evidence to keep the investigation alive. Some officials were credulous. Others were devious. But no one “stole” our democracy—other than perhaps intelligence officials…
The High Dudgeon of the Debt Debate
Commentary “Debts and lies are generally mixed together,” said Francois Rabaleis. It was true 500 years ago when he said it and it has never been more true now. People hide their debts because they reveal a great deal of stupidity, profligacy, and miscalculation. Certainly that is true in personal finance. It is even more…
Are Fears of AI Justified?
Commentary Artificial intelligence (AI) has created some enthusiasm and even more fear. The fears center partly on matters of privacy and the upending of social relationships but mostly on job destruction. Such concerns are far from new. They have emerged with every technological advance since the industrial revolution began in the late 18th century. They…
DeSantis Reminds Public Universities of Uncomfortable Truth About ‘He Who Pays the Piper’
Commentary “He who pays the piper calls the tune” is a familiar proverb. Wiktionary tells us it means that “The person paying for something is the one who gets to say how it should be done.” It’s difficult if not impossible to argue against its wisdom. What’s the alternative? I suppose it would be something…

Commentary The United States and South Korea are getting tougher on technology leaks. The two countries have extensive tech industries to protect. Most important is their technological lead, along with the Netherlands, in small and powerful computer chips used for economic and military applications around the world. Countries that steal these technologies include China, Russia,…
