By Eric Utter California Rep. Katie Porter (it would be stating the obvious to point out that she is a Democrat) recently asked 18-year-old climate activist Greta Thunberg what she should tell her daughter about climate change.  The 47-year-old mother and elected Golden State representative queried Thunberg, stating: I told my nine-year-old daughter that I was going to be speaking with you. And I said, what do you think about the climate change? And she said, 'the earth is on fire and we're all going to die soon.' And I asked her how that made her feel and she said it made her feel angry.  What should I tell my daughter  and how should I help her and the youngest generation bear the emotional toll of the actions that we're taking, fossil fuel companies are taking to destroy our planet. To this Thunberg replied: And, of course, always the best medication against anger and anxiety is to take action yourself. So that's what I would tell her. To take action herself, be...

Skip to Comments By Alex Parker Do American Indians who join the Air Force have unique challenges? According to the military, yes. The same goes for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer/questioning recruits. Therefore, last month, the United States Air Force put together two focus groups to address barriers impeding airmen and Space Force Guardians. An  April 26th announcement  breathed official life into each: Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer/Questioning Initiative Team, otherwise known as LIT Indigenous Nations Equality Team, or INET From the  Secretary of the Air Force Public Affairs : The establishment of these two teams builds on the successes of the Department of the Air Force’s other teams and allows the Department of the Air Force to identify and address the issues impacting diversity and inclusion for Airmen and Guardians. The LGBTQ Initiative Team focuses on the LGBTQ community and identifies and works to resolve the i...

Skip to Comments By Shiloh It was May 1965 on the weekend before Memorial Day when a very young boy was at the Pennsylvania Train Station in Baltimore. He was preparing to travel south to South Carolina with his Mom to see his extended family in both North and South Carolina. His Mom had taken him out of school so he could see the family and be home for “Memorial”, as his Mom referred to the day. To those down South it was a time to honor family that had died not just in war but the deaths of their family. The family would go to the local cemetery and clean up the graves, weed and clean the stones. After saying a prayer, the entire family would go back to one of the sister’s home and have a large picnic where everyone brought something.  While standing on the train platform with his Mom and Dad, he got a case of the wanderings. Eight-year-old boys do not stand still long especially when they are at the train station on the platform where he can see the train engines come and go. ...

Skip to Comments   By KEVIN DOWNEY JR. If you remember one thing this Memorial Day weekend, let it be this — leftists are horrible, cloven-hoofed sub-humans. The word, “evil” gets tossed around like Marilyn Monroe at the Kennedy compound. Leftists believe voter ID, the wall, ICE, Trump supporters and Christmas are all “evil.” Words are like baseball mitts. The more you use them the softer they become. Kind of like how the word “racist” no longer has meaning.  FACT-O-RAMA: Using a word until it loses its meaning is referred to “semantic satiation.”  Let’s take a look down memory land and look at some classic evil. AUGUST 2016: A black man holding a gun was shot and killed by police in Milwaukee. The riots raged for 4 days. Cars were burned, stores were looted and torched, gunshots rang out. CNN showed a video of the dead guy’s sister bravely “calling for peace.” “Don’t bring the violence and the ignorance here,” she bellowed courageously. The good people of Milwaukee proba...

By Tyler Durden Following now completed joint war games held by the US, Japan, France and Australia in the East China Sea off the southwest coast of Japan earlier this month, China has lashed out particularly at its large regional neighbor Australia,  calling its military “weak” and “insignificant”  at a moment the two are locked in a severe trade and diplomatic tit-for-tat dispute.  Beijing voiced specific threats and warnings via its state-run English language mouthpiece  Global Times , which recently  wrote , “Australia’s military is too weak to be a worthy opponent of China, and if it dares to interfere in a military conflict for example in the Taiwan Straits,  its forces will be among the first to be hit .” “Australia must not think it can hide from China if it provokes,”  the report continued with its threats. “Australia is within range of China’s conventional warhead-equipped DF-26 intermediate-range ballistic missile.” Exercise Jeanne d’Ar...
