The Mandate for 2023 and 118th U.S. Congress

By Scott Powell

The mandate for the 118th U.S. Congress is straightforward: First, pass bills that solve big problems and help the largest number of Americans. Second, investigate government malfeasance and violations of American citizens' Constitutional rights for the purpose of cleaning up government by recommending and pursuing penalties, prosecutions, and impeachments. It is time to hold accountable elected and appointed officials who failed to uphold their oath of office. The political weaponization of the Justice Department and the FBI needs to be brought to an end just as the unequal two-tiered practice of justice and law enforcement needs to be stopped. [more...]

Some of 2022's Biggest Lies to Reject as False in 2023

By Judd Dunning, Newsmax Columnist

How do we stop leftists besieging America? The solution is living our greatest passionate grateful lives while remaining vigilant in the realm of ideas. The true war on America is idea-based. Reject surrounding lies. "The truth will set you free," (John 8:32). We must "Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but living as servants of God," (1 Peter 2:16). Unnoble ideas require no explanation to corrupt or influence. Their mere retelling is dangerous. Here are some of the most dangerous lies to reject in 2023: [more...]

Biden Admin - Jews Visiting Holy Site is "Unacceptable"

By Daniel Greenfield

How do you make apartheid sound good? Just call it the "historic status quo."

Under Muslim rule, the historic status quo by the invaders was to ban Jews from their own holiest site, the Temple Mount. When Jerusalem was liberated, there was a vocal insistence by the Muslims who had launched a war to destroy the Jewish State and by the "international community" that Jews continue to be barred from their own holy site in the name of the "historic status quo." And if that sounds too unbelievable, here's Ned Price, Biden's State Department spokesman, saying that Jews must continue to be banned. [more...]

There is No Fun in Progressivism

By Mark Tapson

Totalitarians can dish it out, but they can’t take it.

"There is no fun in Islam," once declared the Ayatollah Khomenei, whose stern visage glowered down from posters plastered all over Iran after the 1979 revolution, as if daring anyone to crack a smile. The same could be said for today’s Progressivism which, like Islamic fundamentalism, is a totalitarian ideology. And today’s Democrats, like the Iranian mullahs, simply can't take a joke. They can't afford to, since successful totalitarianism depends on the total control of every aspect of people's lives, even – perhaps especially – their thoughts. The totalitarian state maintains that control through fear and division, and people who feel comfortable enough to ridicule the regime clearly are not sufficiently afraid or divided. [more...]

 

How Can A.I. Be Made Sentient, Innovative?

By Robert J. Marks

If they were hoping for computers to be their best buddies, they might be disappointed in the computer engineer’s answer.

What's the missing element in artificial intelligence? To make it sentient. To make it innovative too. The premise of my book is that it will never be there. There are certain things which are non-computable. This goes back to the genius Alan Turing in the 1930s. Now, Turing is probably best known for helping crack the Enigma code that helped win World War II for the Nazi codes. But he was also a mathematical genius. And as the father of computer science, he was able to prove back in the 1930s that there were things which were non-computable. [more...]
