Lincoln Project Scandal: Washington Corruption As Usual?

The Lincoln Project was founded by a group of "never-Trump" Republicans, including the former presidential campaign manager of John McCain. While the anti-Trump "resistance" types wrote big checks, the Lincoln Project founders banked big bucks for themselves. Some of the founders did even more repulsive things.

Liberty Is An Inside Game

By Chris Rossini

Let's say a friend approaches you and says, "We really need to fight what is going on right now. We need to fight this belief that 2+2=5."

You respond that 2+2 never has, and never will, equal 5. What is there to fight? It's not real. How do you fight something that isn't real? 

And why stop there? 

2+2 doesn't equal 55 either...or 555...or 5 million...

Must we fight those too? Isn't the "fight" over at the moment that you acknowledge, accept and believe that 2+2 always has, and alwa...

The End of The Insanity is Near - Will a $15 Minimum Wage Save Us?

Once government intervention into the lives of the citizens, it eventually turns into an addiction. In America, the addiction to government intervention began a century ago. Today, the government intervenes into just about every aspect of a citizen's life. The focus is always on the superficial and the immediate. Long-term consequences aren't even considered. Well, the long-term has arrived and the consequences are bad.
