      The summer vacation travel schedule is just weeks away.

  • Five Pinocchios for Gavin Newsom Five Pinocchios for Gavin Newsom
      Add California Governor Gavin Newsom’s name to the list of prominent elected officials who blatantly lied about their personal histories. Senator Elizabeth Warren lied for years about her alleged American Indian heritage. Connecticut Senator Richard Blumenthal falsely claimed to have been a Vietnam war combatant. Instead of slinking silently away ...
  • Garvey Gains Traction in California’s U.S. Senate Primary Garvey Gains Traction in California's U.S. Senate Primary
      The Sacramento Bee thinks that Republican U.S. Senate candidate Steve Garvey has a chance to qualify for the November 2024 ballot. At first blush, the idea that the nation’s bluest state could possibly elect a Republican to the U.S. Senate is too far-fetched to take seriously. Not since 1988 when California ...

    It’s been thirty-one years since John Lautner died. For those who didn’t know him, John was California’s and, perhaps, the United States’ best postwar architect after Frank Lloyd Wright. He was also my friend and over the years, because I was involved in local government, I attempted somewhat foolishly, to get ...

    The biggest threat to Joe Biden’s 2024 reelection is not the opposition GOP, but rather fellow Democrat Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. If Biden allows Democratic primary debates to take place, and as of early July, neither the president nor the DNC has indicated that they would permit them, Kennedy would have a ...
  • DC Voting Subverts Sovereignty DC Voting Subverts Sovereignty
    Bit by bit and with considerable assistance from their advocates, illegal aliens are inching their way toward nationwide voting privileges. In 2018, San Francisco began to register illegal immigrants and other noncitizens over age 18 whose children attend K-12 public schools. The noncitizens could then vote in school board elections. Although ...
  • Truth Will Out Truth Will Out
    I’ve been acquainted with the words and concepts “disinformation” and “misinformation” since late 1978 when I became friends with the assassination researcher Michael Canfield. Canfield and A.J.

  • The Dangers of Animal Idolatry The Dangers of Animal  Idolatry
    One characteristic that marks the decline of our culture is the way we personify animals, that is, elevate them to a human level and sometimes above a human level. Some cultures deified animals.

    Dr. Anthony Fauci, Chief Medical Advisor to the President of the United States, has decided "mandate" is a word people reject, so he wants to replace it with "requirement.” It’s as if he thinks U.S. citizens are too stupid to notice it’s a distinction without a difference. In my opinion, Dr. ...

    I often complain about my children’s apparent disregard for time. For them, time seems to be irrelevant in their daily lives. Have an appointment? It’s OK to be late. Need to be at work at 8:00 AM? 8:05 is OK. Granddaughter’s bedtime? What’s that? For me as a member of the ...

    President Joseph Robinette Biden is talking about hardening the infrastructure. I won’t focus on how odd it is that when Democrats are pushing an anti-gun bill there are mass shootings and now while pushing a boondoggle infrastructure bill there is a well-timed cyberattack on oil pipelines. The timing is suspicious, but one wouldn’t want to ...

    After decades of dramatic population increases, California’s residency totals have stabilized, although not in the manner that advocates had hoped for. Radical policies embraced in Sacramento, and by other major municipalities including Los Angeles and San Francisco, have accelerated residents’ departure.

      Survivors of the deadly fires in Maui are being offered a $700-per-household payment by FEMA (the Federal Emergency Management Agency) and temporary shelter. But in Maui, $700 doesn’t go far. Estimated monthly living costs for a family of four are $7,203. The token $700 represents less than 10 percent of a family’s living costs, an insult ...
