SCIENCE SPEAKS – How often have you read about something being “settled science,” as if there’s no room for further discussion? In the Summer edition of Issues of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine, however, the authors write of the consequences of pervasive, implausible climate scenarios in “How Climate Science Scenarios Lost Touch With Reality:”
“A continued focus on implausible emissions in climate research is a failure of science’s supposed internal quality assurance mechanisms and thus a failure of scientific integrity. … read more

Coincidentally, “Enemies of the State,” was the heading on John Hinderaker’s blog, PowerLine, in which he, too, noted Attorney General Merrick Garland’s decision to go after so-called “domestic terrorists” – parents and grandparents – who are practicing their right of free speech at school board meetings.

It always gives me pleasure when the Democrats turn on one of their own when they don’t follow the party line put forth by Sen. Chuck Schumer or Rep. Nancy Pelosi.
Arizona Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, once the darling of the bleeding-heart liberal columnists of the Arizona Republic, has been the subject of two recent columns by E.… read more

“Anytime there’s an attack, especially one that’s this horrific that strikes right at the heart of our system of government right at the time a transfer of power is being discussed, you can be darn tootin’ that we are focused very, very hard on how we can get better sources, better information, better analysis so that we can make sure that something like what happened on Jan.… read more

Biden’s White House has screwed up immigration on our southern border, the withdrawal of our human and supply assets from Afghanistan, our energy independence and have shown no interest in quelling crime in our major cities, yet, the banner headline in my Sunday morning paper reads, “White House working to address the thawing Arctic.”… read more
