The Farm Chronicles: Berry farm visit
We were in the midst of our 1963 Great Western Tour and everything was going just swell. As an eight-year-old dedicated to everything “cowboy,” the trip West was a bonanza. We saw real Indians (Native Americans—no disrespect intended), cowboys, wild horses and all sorts of places with their story of the wild West. But you…
Read MoreThere you go again
There was a famous line in the second 1980 presidential debate between President Jimmy Carter and challenger Ronald Reagan. When Carter tried to twist Reagan’s record as governor using hyperbole, Reagan responded in his fatherly and affable way, “There you go again.” The point was made. As Americans facing much dire circumstances than even Carter…

The media and politicians are in an uproar over the latest Labor Department monthly Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey showing that a record 4.3 million people quit their jobs in August.

Read MoreMandates as a civil rights issue
In what is becoming a crucial civil rights issue, vaccine mandates are being opposed across the country.

Read MoreThe Constitutional issue of vaccine mandates

From time to time, I have referred to our 1963 Great Western Tour. This was a wonderful adventure to every state west of the Mississippi. It was far different than today. Roads were narrow. Gas stations were far apart. Facilities were primitive. People were friendly. A whole different world with a lot of amazing territory…
Read MoreDo you follow God or the Republican Party?
There was an interesting, if not ridiculous, exchange on MSNBC’s “The ReidOut” about how Christian evangelicals are following the Republican Party instead of scripture. The discussion, between MSNBC’s Joy Reid and Anthea Butler, Chair and Professor of Religious Studies at the University of Pennsylvania, was about how white evangelicals are afraid that immigrants were going…

You know things have turned upside-down when…Rioters in the Northwest are occupying police stations, making parts of cities war zones, burning and looting businesses and are encouraged to do so by leftist politicians, including the current Vice President of the United States. At the same time people who are standing up in school board meetings…
Read MoreNew government data exposes alarming deficiencies in fight against COVID
A Daily Jot investigation of the federal government’s official COVID 19 data clearly demonstrates that COVID 19 vaccine efficacy rapidly declines, vaccination breakthroughs are causing a majority of COVID 19 cases and hospitalizations, and there are significant numbers of deaths among the vaccinated aged 65+. Data from three government agencies clearly contradicts claims that the…
Read MoreSchool boards demand terrorist designation for dissenters
In recent days, both the National Association of Secondary School Principals and the National School Boards Association (NSBA) have called on the Biden Administration to take extraordinary actions against people demanding accountability of their local schools, even to the extent of designating dissenters as domestic terrorists. In a letter to Biden, the NSBA wrote: “As…
