President Trump is the most criticized President of my lifetime, and most of the criticism is literally irrational. TDS is no joke. At the PRESENT MOMENT people are on edge about his leadership and judgment, mainly because we don't know what is truly going on with respect to Iran. The Media...

"Club sports" would be a rational thing to do. If there is a demand, make up teams of actual students who play games in their spare time. There is no need to make sports a "cancer" in Academe. This is how hockey is played in many states. The players and their families pay for it themselves...

https://www.cnbc.com/2026/06/11/trump-says-us-will-seize-kharg-island-and-other-oil-infrastructure-points.html Our Beloved President recently threatened to take Kharg Island, then withdrew the threat citing positive developments in negotiations. Insiders say (and Trump acknowledges) that the...

https://townhall.com/columnists/hankadler/2026/06/12/educators-and-congress-need-to-resuscitate-the-student-athlete-n2677638 The U.S. is the only "civilized" country that pollutes its system of "higher education" with thousands and thousands of "students" who have no business even being on a...

I seldom watch more than a few minutes of the games, but I'm a big believer in getting a pretty accurate picture from the Box Score. Wemby was 9-25 overall, 2-8 from beyond the arc, and 4-7 from the free throw line. Given that they lost by a single point, he lost the game for them. He should...

Despite all the naysaying (mainly from public school teachers), the SAT has proven itself over generations to predict a student's POTENTIAL FOR PERFORMANCE of college-level work. What people forget is that the people who write the tests are academics themselves, with no particular axe to...

https://archive.is/UltFX As Leftists institutions have gradually diminished the importance of standardized testing (e.g., the SAT) in the admissions process, they have lost their ability to accept the Best and the Brightest. This development is mainly the result of the fact that armies of...

Iranian oil? Did you just make that up???????? Venezuelan oil is also flowing quite nicely.

Trump's cabinet is comprised of like-minded people who have shown a personal loyalty to Our Beloved President. But several of them are clearly people who are not going to simply say what he wants to hear. Scott Bessent? Hell, he tells OBP what to think! RFK Jr? Same thing. Trump 45 took...

In this film clip, noted deceased atheist Christopher Hitchins addresses the question of whether certain notable religious figures truly believe the theological tenets that they preach. Billy Graham, Mormons, and Scientologists are addressed. Not surprisingly, Hitchins thinks they are all...

Virtually every person detained by ICE is (a) in the country illegally, and (b) has declined an invitation to go back to their home country, all expenses paid. Our Beloved President made a tactical error when he spoke repeatedly about the "murderers, rapists, robbers, etc." that he was going to...

His recent comments that "Iran" is ready to sign a "deal" are just bizarre. The World couldn't care less if Iran "signs a deal" because the World knows that Iran is not trustworthy - will not adhere to any deal that it signs. The only conclusion to this mess is to put Iran in a situation where...

So here's the thing: If that were to come into existence, our European (and Asian) friends would have a problem, wouldn't they? Not our problem.

It seems to me that any power source that requires a backup can never be "Plan A." And because of that, it can never be the least cost option because the cost of the backup must be cranked into the overall cost calculation. So the idea that society can transition to solar and wind is not...

There is no need to speculate about whom/what is a Christian. It is detailed in the Nicene Creed. I believe in one God, [Mormons are polytheistic, and believe THEY can become "gods" after death] the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible. I believe in...
