The Declaration of Independence - Then and Now
Most Americans celebrating the contemporary July 4th holiday
underappreciate or have forgotten that it was the sheer power of the ideas in the
Declaration of Independence that was the determining factor for the Americans
in winning the War of Independence. George Washington's army and navy were no
match for the British, which was the greatest military power in the
world. Consider the force asymmetry at the outset of the Revolutionary War... [more...]
Kinzinger Stupidly Calls Out 'Christian Taliban'
Rep. Lauren Boebert said a few days ago that she was "tired
of this separation of church and state junk." Rep. Adam Kinzinger responded by
likening Boebert's remark to one from the "Christian Taliban." This
is a manufactured lie from the left and now, RINO-ey Kinzinger, that
ultimately, egregiously and stupidly skews America's history. [more...] Get Cheryl's New Bestselling

Google's LaMDA Not as Smart as Some Think
Google suspended an engineer, Blake Lemoine, for claiming
that a Google AI project named LaMDA has become "sentient." Google
asserted that Lemoine had breached company confidentiality. But, in addition, Google
disagreed with Lemoine that artificial intelligence at Google had achieved
sentience. Eric Holloway has exposed the workings behind the curtain that
show that LaMDA (Language Model for Dialogue Applications) was trained using
examples from humans to do exactly what it did. Its behavior was planned. That's
what AI does: what it is programmed to do. [more...] Get the new book by Dr. Marks: Non-Computable YOU.
Democrats' Fearmongering About SCOTUS Gun Rights Decision is
Baseless
"Lives are on the line," Biden warned after the Supreme Court held last week, in New
York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen, that New York
State's restrictive gun permit regime was unconstitutional. "This could
place millions of New Yorkers in harm's way," New York Gov. Kathy Hochul
claimed. Democrats and gun control proponents are now predicting disaster in
New York and in the six other states (California, Delaware, Hawaii, Maryland,
Massachusetts, and New Jersey) with restrictive "may-issue" concealed
handgun laws. These states required that applicants for concealed carry permits
must demonstrate "proper cause" - a good reason that would convince a
government bureaucrat of one's need for a permit. But the doomsayers don't have
history on their side. [more...]
We're Fed Up with Biden's Left's Vindictive Crisis Leadership
By Judd Dunning
Following a brutal, unsettlingly rights-impinging pandemic,
Americans were already crisis-fatigued. Yet Biden and his Democrats now know
one way to lead and that is through a vindictive crisis-driven steamrolling
legislative process. There is no lower gear. Since Obama (and then made much
worse by Obama again) through his "puppet-in-chief" Biden, the
progressive’s playbook exclusively uses crisis to force-feed their one-sided
elitist agenda on America. Rahm Emanuel's famous "Never let a good crisis
go to waste," is now the new leftist syllogism for "too heck with
consensus." [more...]
The Military Went Woke... Now it Can't Find Recruits
The transgender pronouns, diversity training, and lesbian wedding ads aren't working.
The Army has stopped worrying about winning wars and is instead
working to establish the "Army as a global leader in DEI"
- Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. The military is facing the worst
recruiting environment since the end of the Vietnam War. The Army is at only
40% of its recruiting numbers for the fiscal year despite raising its
maximum enlistment bonus from $40,000 to $50,000. It now offers new recruits up
to $10,000 for showing up to basic training in 30 days. And is no
longer even asking them for a high school diploma. [more...]
