A Proposed Federal Election Integrity Law

This is WAY overdue! I’m well aware that states have the primary authority regarding election matters, but there are certain apolitical, across-the-board regulations that the Federal Government should — MUST — enact. The gist of what I’m proposing for a new Federal law is that when reporting Federal election results, all states must fully adhere […]

More Lack of Critical Thinking Evidence?

The jury’s Mann v. Steyn conclusion. As readers know, I recently posted a detailed discussion of the Mann v Steyn lawsuit, and asserted that ALL of our rights were being debated. The jury’s verdict was rendered yesterday — and it was disturbing. I’m not an attorney, but the two fundamental issues appeared to be: 1) Does a person have the right to […]

An Insurance Scam that Affects Us All

We are being fleeced by film-flam artists. The absurdity of a requested 100% rate increase for some North Carolina property owners got my attention. (Note that insurance PR people knew that 100% might sound unreasonable, so they adjusted it to be 99.4%!). Let’s back up a bit to see what’s going on here… Every one of us pays […]

Have We had Honest or Dishonest Elections?

There are two radically different viewpoints about what happened in 2020. Which is the primary explanation? Let’s briefly outline each… Position #1: Some intelligent people have told me that they believe that the Dems won in 2020 honestly, because: a) they had better messaging, b) they did a better job at getting out the vote, c) they had a better candidate, etc. Position #2: My view […]

Should Voting Machines be Scrapped?

Recap: The three main elements of election voting are: The voter, The machines, and The process. All three need to be on the up-and-up to assure election integrity. One of the core election integrity debates is whether using electronic voting (machines, etc.) is a net asset or net liability? In researching this topic, I found it interesting how that key […]

Mann vs Steyn … and us. An exceptionally important trial just started

Here is a super-brief outline of this VERY BIG deal – that will not be seen on mainstream media… Dr. Michael E. Mann is a well-known climate activist. e.g., he was the person who invented the hockey-stick climate graph — which intentionally conveys alarmism. Mark Steyn is a conservative, outspoken public speaker, writer, TV personality, etc. who has a […]

2020 Presidential Election Related Lawsuits

Mainstream media has continually conveyed that: 1) none of Trump’s lawsuits related to the 2020 election resulted in a determination that there was election fraud in 2020, and 2) Trump lost essentially all of the lawsuits related to the 2020 election. To evaluate the truth of these assertions, a detailed Report was done by independent experts. This analysis identified and summarized the […]

The Rhyme and Reason of Negative Ballots?

This is the second installment of a five part series on the upcoming 2024 U.S. elections. See here for Part 1. Those who dig into the election voting process will eventually come across the name: Edison Research. Who are they? Essentially what they do is act as a third-party, vote-reporting firm. Basically, they get ballot results from each […]

How to Win the U.S. Presidency

The upcoming elections have never been more important. Again. There are few things more important for us to apply Critical Thinking to than who we should elect as our next President. My take is that there are three main “P’s” that will make the difference: Policies, Politics, and Personality. Each one of these is a test case for […]

Critical Thinking Is THE Answer

Let’s start the New Year by reviewing America’s Number One problem. Although it affects EVERYTHING — it is rarely discussed! Literally every day we are bombarded by non-sensical words and actions by many of our representatives, our government agencies, the news media, organizations, businesses, celebrities, etc., as well as family and friends! Is it possible that […]

College Football is a Microcosm of our Society

Who is at Fault for the Transfer Portal Debacle: Colleges, or Athletes, or? Welcome to my first post in 2024. Hope the upcoming year is rewarding to you. I acknowledge I’m a fossil. I’m so old that I can remember when: 1) colleges took pride in having quality curriculums, and 2) a large factor in college athletes’ decision on […]
