Confederate Theater
“In regards to the deployment of national guard soldiers, I hear people on the left say that they are anticipating a ‘Kent State’ moment.
Personally, I expect to see a ‘Ft. Sumter’ moment even sooner. As a prelude, I would expect to see a Harpers Ferry type incident occur within a deep blue state. And by Harpers Ferry, I refer to a prelude incident where a Federal facility is attacked inside of a blue state by a local zealot.”
That already happened, in 2020, with the federal building in Portland, but the Democrats told me that it was “mostly peaceful.”

“‘Personally, I thought we’d find some imbalance, some activist teaching,’ co-author Jon Shields, a professor of government at Claremont McKenna College, told The College Fix. ‘I just didn’t expect it to be the norm in the cases we studied. That was genuinely surprising to me.’
Sadly, it’s not surprising to me at all. It’s a large part of why the country is such a disaster.
Antifa’s Recruiting Problem
Thoughts on the not-to-be-hoped-for civil war:
Antifa wants an insurrection leading to a legitimacy collapse and a communist/left-anarchist revolution. But there's a very basic question: where's it going to find the troops, and how's it going to train them?

How We Became Fat-Phobic
The message is finally getting out.
For decades, Americans have been “fat-phobic,” believing saturated fats to be one of the leading contributors to heart disease. Dr. Nina Teicholz, founder of The Nutrition Coalition, debunks this idea popularized by one scientist in the twentieth century.

I don’t think it’s hyperbole to say that Ancel Keys was an unwitting mass murderer.
Greta’s Flotilla
…has exposed the suicidal stupidity of Islamo Leftism.
That’s really been pretty obvious with all of the LGBT+ signs in support of Hamas.
