One of my favorite Western reruns is "The Rifleman," starring the steely-jawed Chuck Connors as Lucas McCain. In one episode, John Hamilton, president of North Fork's first bank, tried to talk a buzz of skeptical townsfolk into putting their lifesavings into the "absolute safety" of his bank. The crowd didn't budge until Hamilton introduced his new security guard, former gunslinger Floyd Doniger, who awed the crowd by shooting plates in mid-air as fast as Hamilton's men tossed them up. It worked. The townsfolk streamed into the bank with their lifesavings. Doniger, now perched on a loft with a ready rifle, scanned the bank like a human security camera.

I watched, dumbfounded, as millions of Americans let Black Lives Matter burn their cities. No, I'm not as optimistic as the author that the average American will lift a finger to protect their Country or defend western civilization.

A good analogy. I hope things aren't past fixing. So many different criminal groups working so hard to destroy America. I wonder if we can prevail.

I always loved the "Rifleman" TV series as a kid, there was always a moral lesson in each episode. TV is now a cesspool of perversity and degradation. The last show I watched on Network TV was "Blue Bloods" which was usually good, but even "Blood Bloods" got very PC at times. Tom Selleck attended my high school so I felt I had to watch to support a fellow "Lancer".

Obama’s billion-dollar middle finger

Nothing says “hope and change” quite like bulldozing a beloved public park for a 235-foot phallic tower dedicated to oneself. Welcome to the Obama Presidential Center (OPC), an $830 million (and rising) vanity project in Chicago’s historic Jackson Park. The man who once preached community organizing couldn’t find a single non-park site in his hometown for his monument. I get angry every time I see a story about this thing. It feels as if Obama is giving America a gigantic, double-barreled middle finger.

A stunning new report from the University of California, San Diego, reveals that incoming college students are less prepared for their classes than ever. The steep decline in academic readiness among its first-year students is particularly noticeable in mathematics. The UCSD paper shows that between 2020 and 2025, the number of students with math skills below high school level increased nearly thirtyfold. Additionally, 70% of these students are below the middle school level.

Minnesota’s Governor Tim Walz — Kamala Harris’s former aw-shucks VP sidekick — now faces a scandal so colossal it could swallow the state budget whole. Over 480 Department of Human Services (DHS) employees have blown the whistle, accusing Walz of masterminding a cover-up for a Somali immigrant-led fraud ring that siphoned more than $1 billion from social programs. That’s billion with a B — stolen through COVID relief scams, fake autism diagnoses, and Medicaid kickbacks, with funds funneled overseas, including to Al-Shabaab terrorists. One standout grifter, 29-year-old Asha Farhan Hassan, allegedly pocketed $14 million alone from programs meant for vulnerable kids.

Ken Burns is giving a history of the American Revolution replete with leftist narratives unmoored from facts. In Episode 1, Burns erroneously claims that the driving force of the American Revolution was to steal Indian land. In Episode 2, the narrative is slavery and the evil colonists, including George Washington. After defaming George Washington, Burns adopts the canard that slavery was a cause of the American Revolution, and portrays slavery as an unchallenged colonial evil, ignoring the colonies’ abolitionist movement, a world first.

How bad is the Somali fraud scandal, in which the State of Minnesota allowed Somalis to rip off the system to the tune of $1 billion, some of them using the cash to bankroll Al Shabaab terrorism? This bad: Minnesota's largely Democrat bureaucrats are publicly blaming Walz. According to Fox News: More than 400 employees of the Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS) accused Gov. Tim Walz of failing to act on widespread fraud warnings and retaliating against whistleblowers. The Minnesota Department of Human Service Employees account, which says it consists of more than 480 current staff members at the Minnesota DHS, wrote on X that Walz is "100% responsible for massive fraud

Good news: five years after George Floyd’s death, and four years after the civil rights dumpster fire trial that Judge Peter Cahill oversaw—a trial that led to the convictions of Officers Derek Chauvin, Tou Thao, Thomas Lane, and J. Alexander Kueng—there is finally a serious, well-constructed challenge to the verdicts in those cases. Attorney Greg Joseph has filed an appeal that directly confronts what he argues were grave judicial and prosecutorial abuses, as well as violations of the officers’ civil rights. One can only hope that justice will be served.

The past week has seen quite an uproar over the suggestion by Kommander Kelly and his Kosmic Krew that military personnel should decide for themselves what orders from the president of the United States they will choose to obey. It’s been rumored that Kelly is under investigation by the Department of the Navy (does anyone know if the Navy Department became separate after the War Department was reestablished, as it was in days gone by?) They should throw the book at him. He’s an officer, and he knows better. What hasn’t come up, though, is that this is a direct result of the noxious actions of Mark Milley

The Epstein scandal is taking center stage and evolving rapidly. It started as a grim tale of sex trafficking and exploitation, and morphed into a partisan battleground. The Epstein Transparency Act nearly unanimously passed the House and then cleared the Senate via unanimous consent shortly thereafter. A discharge petition in the House bypassed leadership and forced a vote on the transparency bill. The bill passed with a tally of 427-1, compelling the DoJ to disclose Epstein-related materials within 30 days, excluding victim identities and explicit content like child pornography. The lone dissenter was Rep. Clay Higgins (R-LA)

Nov. 18 should henceforth be recognized as far more dangerous than Jan. 6 ever was. Far more shocking. And an actual attempt at fomenting an insurrection, a coup. The “Nov. 18ers” should be forever shamed and discredited. Rather than hundreds of unruly Trump supporters strolling through the Capitol building, many of whom were subsequently incarcerated for doing so, we have just witnessed six sitting Democratic lawmakers openly urge members of the military and intelligence community to defy direct orders from the president of the United States.

Should America’s constitutional republic ever fall, the most likely cause of death will be its corrupt institutions. When citizens lose faith in the “system” and have exhausted all available remedies to “fix” that “system,” they will feel wholly disconnected from the government that rules over them. A cascade of institutional crises will exacerbate public distrust in the “system” until the “system’s” legitimacy collapses. Should that foreboding and chaotic event come, a primary driver will have been the public’s complete loss of faith in the courts of the United States.

James Comey’s legal troubles just got a whole lot worse. In September, James Comey was indicted on charges of making false statements and obstruction of justice. Comey claims he’s the victim of malicious prosecution, and Democrats are out in full force claiming that this is part of Trump’s “revenge,” but newly filed evidence that Just the News obtained is quite damning. Prosecutors have revealed what looks like a smoking gun: Comey’s own words showing that he wasn’t merely aware his top aides were leaking to the press; he was actively congratulating them for it.

Pope Leo just wrapped his tour of oppressed Christian communities in Islamist dominated nations like Turkey and Lebanon. Rather than directly address the persecution of Christians, he praised the local regimes, met with Muslim leaders, took off his shoes at a mosque and took refuge in vague generalities. In Lebanon, Pope Leo offered no direct criticism of Hezbollah or Islam. He visited and prayed at the Port of Beirut, where a Hezbollah weapons explosion killed over 200 people, many of them Christians, and the blast damaged churches and devastated families. Pope Leo avoided placing blame, claiming instead that it’s natural to be “paralyzed by powerlessness in the face of evil”, but urged

"I am outraged... He doesn't know whom [sic] they are or whether they are innocent or whether they're guilty," Water said. "He should follow the laws. The law does not allow or intend for the president of the United States to kill anyone he wants to kill."

Old Joe Biden put down his ice cream cone and rejoined the fray on Friday, delivering a major speech at the International LGBTQ+ Leaders Conference in Washington, D.C.

Didn’t they know that the man can barely string a coherent sentence together even when he is simply reading it off a teleprompter? In any case, the queer gathering got exactly what you’d expect.

Chicago Public Schools allows students to receive excused absences if they or their family members are concerned about Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids in the city. The government school district has a document, entitled “Attendance Coding for Safety Concerns Related to Federal Representative Activity,” that says parents can convey a fear of federal immigration authorities in order to mark their children “excused.” The document was obtained by Defending Education, according to a report from Fox News. “If a parent/guardian reports an absence and attributes it to fear of federal representative-related procedures, schools CAN excuse the absence under ‘concern for student health and safety,'” the policy reads,

A hallway inside the Humphrey Building in Washington D.C. features portraits of federal officials who worked at HHS, and one of them is of Admiral Rachel Levine, NPR reported on Friday. “Levine’s official portrait was recently altered, a spokesperson for HHS confirmed to NPR. A digital photograph of the portrait in the hallway obtained by NPR shows that Levine’s previous name is now typed below the portrait, under the glass of the frame,” the outlet said.

President Trump's FBI, led by Director Kash Patel, and prosecutors have released few details about the accused 30-year old's motivations, but investigative leads that law enforcement officials and congressional committees disclosed in the years preceding the bomber's arrest point to how agents found it so difficult to apprehend him.

The controversy, which focuses on hundreds of millions of dollars allegedly stolen from a federally funded nutrition program, has led to more than 50 convictions. The New York Times gave the story national attention last week, highlighting statements from federal prosecutors that as much as $1 billion in taxpayer money may have been stolen in separate plots. It has even Walz’s longtime allies wondering if the governor should walk away from a reelection
