Do I have any lawyer friends who are up for a *real* challenge? 🙂 In the 2012 U.S. Supreme Court case, “Arizona v. the United States,” SCOTUS ruled that Arizona could not enact its own immigration law, because Federal immigration law existed. Therefore, the existence of the National Firearms Act (not to mention the Second …

Warming, Viruses, and Conspiracies
People seem disappointed that I’m not immediately jumping on the bandwagon with Dr. Li-Meng Yan’s claim that SARS-COV-2 is a man-made Chinese bioweapon. There seems to have been some sort of belief that because I oppose the Anthropogenic Global Warming hypothesis and all policies based on it, I must be a fellow conspiracy theorist. So, …
Just a Little Reality-Check
Dear liberals: No matter what anyone claims, the Federal budget is 100% the responsibility of Congress. Period, full stop. Dear Conservatives: RIFs only apply to planned furloughs, not emergency shut-downs. This is not a brilliant master plan.

All clear …
Good-bye, Republican Party
