Op-Ed

This editorial ran in today’s Moscow-Pullman Daily News. Politicians  will do nothing until it’s too late.  According to the CBO, Social Security and Medicare will be insolvent in ten years. Millions of Americans face losing their monthly checks, and politicians aren’t doing anything about it. Social Security was founded in the 1930s as a universal […]

Today’s OpEd is on the decline of the dollar on the world market, and the implications on America. This ran in the Moscow-Pullman Daily News. The American dollar’s nearly century-long reign as the untouchable global kingpin is coming to an end. Five nations are sick of dancing to the tune of Western financial imperialists, and

In today’s editorial in the Moscow-Pullman Daily News,  I explore the decline in military recruitment and the erosion of trust in the U.S. armed forces. I argue that factors such as DEI policies, special treatments for certain groups, and political mishandling are betraying the military’s core values and undermining its essential function: winning wars and

My editorial on the significance of Tucker Carlson running the The Blaze’s town hall with the Republican hopefuls ran in today’s Moscow-Pullman Daily News.  In an era marked by rapid shifts in politics and media, an extraordinary event unfolded two weeks ago. This was none other than the Republican town hall hosted by The Blaze,

Today’s editorial concerns the media’s twisted take on the docudrama “Sound of Freedom” which shows one man’s real life battle against child sex trafficking.  And why does the Democrat’s media hate the topic so much?  News and social media platforms are abuzz about the release of the movie “Sound of Freedom.” My curiosity piqued, I

The SCOTUS scored a hat trick last week.  This editorial ran in today’s Moscow-Pullman Daily News.  The Supreme Court (SCOTUS) ruled on three significant cases last week. One was President Biden’s college debt forgiveness plan (Dept. of Education vs. Brown), which would have forced those who did not go into college debt to now pay

In today’s editorial, I argue that no one needs an Underwater Basket Weaving degree any more.  If you want to be a doctor, engineer, or something else that requires a degree: sure, go to college.  But 40% of adults have a college degree. And the vast majority of those are worthless and very expensive.  The

Taking on the insanity plea and how it affects us locally in the Pacific Northwest. This editorial ran in today’s Moscow-Pullman Daily News.  The Moscow-Pullman Daily News reports that Jamie Carosino, a woman involved in gunfire aimed at her boyfriend and his parents, was found not guilty by reason of insanity. Last month, Carosino engaged

My editorial on the Deep State pulling the strings ran in today’s Moscow-Pullman Daily News.  The “deep state”—a tangled network of government bodies, the intelligence community (IC), the military, and non-state actors—is no abstract concept. This elusive cabal, where unelected officials and corporate magnates pull the strings behind a facade of visible governance, defies democratic

I take on Biden’s raising mortgage interest rates on buyers with excellent credit scores in order to subsidize those with poor credit scores. This editorial ran in today’s Moscow-Pullman Daily News.  Back in 1961, Kurt Vonnegut published a dystopian science fiction short story titled “Harrison Bergeron.” The story is set in 2081, when the United

My Op-Ed in praise of government whistleblowers ran in today’s Moscow-Pullman Daily News:  I’m a long-time fan of government whistleblowers. Their actions have helped shine light on government wrongdoing, abuse of power, and misconduct. In 1971, Daniel Ellsberg’s leaked “Pentagon Papers” exposed how the US government systematically misled the American public about the scale, objectives,

My editorial ran today in the Moscow-Pullman Daily News.  I’m predicting the demise of the US dollar as the world’s reserve currency.  This is a big deal. The US could never carry a $95 trillion debt (and another off-the-books $171 trillion in unfunded liabilities) if we were not the petrodollar.  Let me know what you

My thoughts on the current Idaho news cycle. From today’s Moscow-Pullman Daily News:  The Idaho news cycle is currently full of fascinating stories. Here are my thoughts about some of them. Liberals are panicking. An education savings accounts (ESA) proposal is before the Idaho Senate (S1161). Parents’ eyes were opened to the dark reality of

My editorial on our love for our Big Pharma abuser ran in today’s Moscow-Pullman Daily News.  Woody Harrelson disrupted Saturday Night Live’s left-leaning narrative with an unexpected monologue last month. He shared a whimsical tale of a movie script pitch he received in November 2019, where drug cartels forced people to consume their drugs for

This Op-Ed ran in today’s Moscow-Pullman Daily News.  It is a further example of how the City of Moscow targets and prosecutes a religious minority it doesn’t like.  It’s been labeled “Stickergate”.  As I discussed in my previous column, a federal judge ruled that a civil rights case can proceed against the city of Moscow

In today’s editorial I discuss my navy background as a security manager onboard a submarine and the crimes committed by Biden, Trump, Hillary, and Pence. The is the unabridged version. You can find the abridged version at the Moscow-Pullman Daily News. In the mid-1980’s I served as Command Security Manager aboard the ballistic missile nuclear submarine USS

My bi-weekly column ran in today’s Moscow-Pullman Daily News in which I address educational choice in Idaho.  It’s ironic people who are “pro-choice” are only for choice when it comes to murdering a baby but nowhere else.  I want to respond to Marty Trillhaase’s editorial “Nothing subtle will stop a school voucher bill.” Trillhaase despairingly quotes

My Christmas Op-Ed in the Moscow-Pullman Daily News. Merry Christmas, all!  “The scepter shall not depart from Judah, nor the ruler’s staff from between his feet, until Shiloh comes, and to him shall be the obedience of the peoples.” —Gen 49:10, NASB. Over 1,500 years before Jesus’ birth, the children of Israel journeyed to Egypt,

Replying to Doug Call’s fallacious argument that uses University of Washington in Seattle as a metric for Washington State University in Pullman.  Apples and oranges, professor. Apples and oranges.  Doug Call took me to task for arguing that University of Idaho President Scott Green’s decision to grant students the liberty to decide whether to attend
