Fallacies of ‘climate crisis’ exposed by freezing temps

Come on now, admit it -- if nothing else, these freezing temperatures have put a damper on the whole climate change logic, the one that goes cars and electric heat are the precursors to humankind's demise and that the only stop is to tax people more and spread the wealth to lower-income countries via the United Nations.

Millennials, Gen Z depressed and sad — boo freaking hoo

Survey says -- Millennials and Generation Z-ers are suffering from depression. Why? 'Cause they try so hard to be perfect and can't do it and that makes them sad. Apparently. Looks like the snowflakes are suffering from a solid case of what goes around, comes around. Living a life of "ME" doesn't seem all it's cracked up to be. Published January 4, 2018

Facebook fight, as ‘Warriors for Christ’ temporarily shuttered

Facebook temporarily shut down the page "Warriors for Christ." Why? The official corporate line is that the page violated the social media giant's community standards. But the Christ fighters have a few other thoughts -- namely, that Facebook is simply showing its pro-LGBT, anti-Christian bias. Published January 3, 2018

Climate alarmists, desperate and cold, now say chocolate’s in danger

Climate change alarmists, apparently alarmed by the frigid temperatures that have gripped much of the United States, have deftly switched tactics and moved from warning about the warming to sounding alarms about -- get this -- chocolate.

Donald Trump wrongfully fingered for failed race relations

Americans, fully 60 percent of them, say President Donald Trump's White House has ushered in a new state of worsened race relations around the country, according to a new Pew Research Center survey.

Thank goodness for Rep. Jim Jordan -- yes? He's the Ohio guy on Capitol Hill right now really gunning for the behind-scenes on the whole Russia collusion so-far sham investigation into Team Trump to explain itself -- to explain why, oh why, all these uncomfortable federal investigators' biases keep on popping. And he's helping to prepare the subpoenas as we speak. Published December 20, 2017

Facebook’s facial ID technology — unnerving and creepy

Facebook, as many may or may not be aware, has launched a new facial recognition platform called Photo Review that gives an alert to those whose faces show up in new posts. Why? Or better yet -- remember PRISM? Published December 20, 2017

FILE - In this Oct. 4, 2017, file photo, shooting instructor Frankie McRae demonstrates the grip on an AR-15 rifle fitted with a "bump stock" at his 37 PSR Gun Club in Bunnlevel, N.C. The Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence filed the lawsuit on Friday, Oct. 6, 2017, against the makers and sellers of "bump stocks," which use the recoil of a semiautomatic rifle to let the finger "bump" the trigger, allowing the weapon to fire continuously. The devices were used by Stephen Paddock when he opened fire on a country music festival in Las Vegas, killing dozens of people. Attorneys for a California woman wounded in the Oct. 1 mass shooting that killed 58 and left hundreds injured on the Las Vegas Strip have dropped a gun accessories maker from her negligence and damages lawsuit.

Sorry, secularists, you ain’t killing Christmas

A new poll from Pew Research Center's Religion & Public Life finds most Americans see a decline in the religious aspect of Christmas, and that an ever-shrinking majority think the whole Jesus-Christ-born-in-a-manger reason for the season is just bunk -- fairy-tale fallacy. Well bah humbug to that. Let's say we kick the secularists to the curb on this one. Published December 19, 2017
