Earlier this month, Weingarten penned “Kids Do Better In Schools With Teachers Unions,” an opinion piece for the Daily Beast, in which she claims to make “a factual case” for all the good that teachers’ unions do for children. For starters, citing work by some leftwing think tankers, she asserts that teachers unions are associated with higher student achievement, especially for Hispanic and black children. Wrong!

How could our constitution-premised country, that has prioritized, cherished, and established justice from its creation, two centuries later unwittingly create, justify, and sustain the exact opposite -- a universal anti-constitution Internet injustice system for the 21st century?

Social Security has been long viewed as untouchable in American politics.  An aging population seemingly only further entrenches this.  Yet cuts may be coming if Democrats and Republicans do not act today.

Microsoft co-founder Gates’ estimated 2022 post-divorce net worth of some $130 billion enables him to donate hundreds of millions to social, health, environmental and corporate media causes. That usually shields him from tough questions.  But BBC media editor Amol Rajan recently asked Mr. Gates to answer charges that he’s “a hypocrite,” for claiming to be “a climate change campaigner” while traveling the world on his luxurious private jets – often to confabs where global elites discuss how we commoners can enjoy simpler, fossil-fuel-free lives: what size our homes can be, how and how much we can heat them, what foods we can eat and how we can cook them, what cars we can drive, whether we can fly anywhere on vacation, what our kids will learn in school, and more.

“President Biden is putting politics and his radical ideology above the interests of working Americans and their families.”

For the past two decades, every year as winter wanes and spring springs, the media has engaged in its contemporary rite of spring: climate fear.

The reality is that all the mineral products and metals needed to make wind turbines, solar panels, and EV batteries are mined and processed in places like Baotou, Inner Mongolia, Bolivia, and the Democratic Republic of Congo, mostly under Chinese control. Decommissioning and restoration of those mining landscapes back to their original pristine condition is not in the cards in developing countries. Recycling of worn-out turbine blades, solar panels, and EV batteries, in wealthy countries is also not in the cards.

Some people have commented that it’s not true that wokeness brought down Silicon Valley Bank. But I think that by and large it's mostly true and I'll try to explain here.

It is simply impossible to provide enough energy storage to make renewables reliable. The North American Reliability Corporation (NERC) must develop Reliability Standards to ensure that the reckless growth of renewables does not destabilize the grid.

"We have more oil than Saudi Arabia. We have more oil than Russia," Taylor said, adding that the drive for "green energy" will make the United States and the world dependent on rare earth minerals largely controlled by China.

As colleges go woke, dumb down curricula, and raise tuition fees, Pickpocket-in-Chief Joe Biden wants you to foot the bill.

Twenty-three states have now sued the EPA over its so-called “Waters of the United States” (WOTUS) rule, because once again, the agency is asserting federal authority over water not covered under the law. The lawsuit says the rule “goes beyond the power Congress delegated in the Clean Water Act, raises serious constitutional concerns, and runs roughshod over the Administrative Procedure Act.” This is eerily familiar

“Biden’s action is far more punitive and stifling of Alaskan energy production than any action taken by any previous president, including Barack Obama.”

The much touted green energy economy and the net zero goals it aims to obtain are built upon a dirty little secret: slavery, child labor, and environmental destruction.

The Globalists™ definitely think things are going their way. Mostly because they are. As their successes become larger and more frequent - so too do their grabs for ever more power and domination. They can’t be blamed. Success - breeds confidence. And we keep letting them do - whatever they want.

We’re still divided down the middle in this country. There are people who understand what's going on, and there are people who are lied to, and believe the crap, that they get from our legacy media.

The State of New Jersey recently enacted a law that requires K–12 students to learn “information literacy.” Stated plainly, this is the skills to determine what’s true and what’s not. The law is allegedly the first of its kind in the nation. The sentiment behind the legislation is admirable, but the law itself is vague and gives the NJ Department of Education broad authority to create these standards. Given the track record of the U.S. education establishment, this could be an epic mistake.

President Biden has been campaigning for years for the elimination of fossil fuels. But ridding the world of oil, without a replacement in mind, would be immoral and evil, as extreme shortages of the products manufactured from fossil fuels will result in billions of fatalities from diseases, malnutrition, and weather-related deaths.

DEI has gone national. The belief that quality takes a backseat to racial bean counting wormed its way into the White House in February, when President Biden signed an executive order that promises to create a national “Diversity, Equity and Inclusion” bureaucracy.

Few of us would have a guessed that anesthesia would be the next target of climate activists.

Are America, Americans, and minors better off now than before Section 230 of the 1996 Communications Decency Act? In today’s trying times, it’s a fair and necessary question to ask.

Net Zero—the global movement to eliminate fossil fuels and their emissions of CO2 and other greenhouse gases—is scientifically invalid and a threat to the lives of billions of people.

Biden and environmentalist policies would destroy agriculture, habitats, products and nutrition.

Should we pay teachers more? Depends.
