The American Chronicles: A promise of Zebras
Our annual beach pilgrimage, took us this time to the edge of Virginia, where the land finally surrenders to the water and civilization gives way to pine trees, sand, and RV hookups. This year marked our 12th straight trip with Ed and Chris, our partners in crime for these beach getaways. They checked into a…
Read MoreDemocrat’s National Gerrymandering Conspiracy
Democrats claim to be the guardians of democracy, yet their actions are something entirely different. Across the country, they have mastered the art of gerrymandering—drawing congressional district lines that don’t reflect the will of the people, but cement their own power. A recent dust-up in Texas highlights this strategy. After a two-week walkout to delay…
Read MoreStupidocrisy: Sharpton’s race-baiting on crime
Al Sharpton’s August 12 claim that President Trump is racially targeting “majority-Black cities” for federal intervention in policing simply doesn’t stand up to factual scrutiny. Out of the cities Sharpton named—Washington, Chicago, Baltimore, Oakland, New York, and Los Angeles—only Baltimore remains a majority-Black city today with roughly 62 percent Black population. Washington, D.C., once famously…
Read MoreSelf-Righteous Entitlement
Let’s introduce a new phrase: self-righteous entitlement. This is when people believe they’re owed rights that simply don’t exist, and worse, they wrap their demand in a cloak of moral superiority. It shows up in everyday life. A parent insists their child deserves playing time on a sports team even if they aren’t good enough, because…
Read MoreChoose life with a joyful heart
In Deuteronomy 11:26–16:17, Moses sets before Israel the choice of blessing or curse. God gives this same charge later in Deuteronomy 30 and again commands—“Choose life!” The Hebrew word Re’eh is in the imperative form, meaning “you see!” The call is personal. Each person is responsible to see clearly and to make faithful choices that align with…
Read MoreThe American Chronicles: Camping with the Fam in Portage Lakes
Every August, we make the pilgrimage to Chris’s sister Cindy and her husband Steve’s lakefront property on beautiful Portage Lakes, Ohio, for our annual family campout. This year had an extra sparkle, as we kicked things off with a mingle hour in honor of Christian and Claire’s wedding last March in Hereford, England. For the…
Read MoreThe Hidden War Over Truth in Medicine
Beneath the surface of public health messaging lies a quiet war between truth and corporate interest, most visible in the COVID-19 vaccine saga. Confidential Pfizer reports to the FDA reveal tens of thousands of adverse events—including pregnancy complications, heart conditions, and fatalities—kept from public view while officials repeated the “safe and effective” mantra. Pfizer and…
Read MoreStupidocrisy: The myth of a Palestinian State
With a gaggle of delusional national leaders lining up to recognize a utopian Palestinian State living in peace with Israel, let us take a full bottle of realism pills. The so-called “Palestinian” people had their chance at a self-governed “Palestinian” state in Gaza. They elected the terrorist group Hamas to govern them and from the…
Read MoreThe DC crime gaslighting
Democrats and their media allies are in full outrage over President Trump’s federal intervention in Washington, D.C., painting it as racially motivated. Congressman James Clyburn (D-SC) told MSNBC that Trump’s takeover of the D.C. police and National Guard deployment was invoking “Jim Crow 2.0.”. This ignores a glaring fact: Jim Crow laws were the creation…
Read MoreAre you walking close to the heels of God?
Moses begins his second address to Israel in Deuteronomy 7:12, saying, “Because you are listening to these rulings, keeping and obeying them, ADONAI your God will keep with you the covenant and mercy He swore to your ancestors.” The Hebrew root for “because” (akav) means “heel,” evoking the image of following closely on the heels…
