“Climate”-Friendly Olympics Show Horror of Pritzker-style Policies
By Alex Newman   |   09.03.24
Months before the games began, Paris 2024 announced its ambitious plan to “halve the carbon footprint” from the past two Olympics and host the “greenest ever Games,” as if carbon dioxide (the gas of life) were somehow not “green.” Organizers admitted the approach was a “radical departure from that of previous major sports events.”
Tractor Supply Needs YOU To Help Fight Wokeism
By Ecce Verum   |   08.09.24
In April of this year, I wrote an article urging conservatives to fight corporate wokeism from the bottom-up. Remember: businesses only do what you pay them to do. Now, I'm happy to announce that in June, we saw yet another great example of this strategy put into practice...

Despite the seemingly mundane nature of regulations, the U.S. Supreme Court’s recent decision to overturn Chevron Deference is poised to have a profound impact on our daily lives. This decision will touch each and every one of us, shaping our daily experiences and interactions.
Extreme Nanny State
By David E. Smith   |   07.05.24
Left-wing activists want us to believe that turbulent weather is something new or more severe than it has been in the past. They want us to believe it is a direct result of human activities, particularly the burning of fossil fuels and the rise of CO2 emissions. President Biden delivered a short speech about so-called extreme weather...
Divided? Or Not So Much?
By Thomas Hampson   |   06.29.24
Regardless of their claimed party affiliation, average Americans are more unified in their opinions than it might appear. It doesn’t seem that way when we watch the news or read the paper, and sometimes even when we discuss issues one-on-one. An outside observer might even think we are hopelessly divided.

The Crisis That Isn’t, Part 2
By Ecce Verum   |   06.05.24
Man has stewardship over the earth. As we established last time, this is a momentous claim. If you're neglecting a proper degree of dominion over the earth, then you are messing up one of the first commands God ever gave our species.
The Crisis That Isn’t, Part 1
By Ecce Verum   |   05.29.24
Several years ago, I made a trip to a popular museum in the Seattle area and toured the various exhibits on display. An exhibit that particularly caught my eye was a kind of vertical conveyor belt on which visitors could post little notes which others could then scroll through and examine. Visitors were instructed to write down their opinion of what the biggest problem in the world was.
Protecting Child Sacrifice and Mandating Indoctrination
By David E. Smith   |   05.23.24
We knew the last week of the scheduled session of the Illinois General Assembly would be rough for pro-family conservatives, and we are sorry to report that two terrible bills are now on their way to Governor JB Pritzker's desk, where he is sure to sign them into law.

“Plastics, Benjamin.” Most people in the Boomer generation, who are movie goers, could tell you exactly the source of that classic line.
Electric Power vs. Green Goals
By Steve Goreham, MS/EE, MBA   |   03.12.24
“The green movement calls for a shutdown of coal and gas power plants. At the same time, it demands a switch to electric vehicles, electric home appliances, and green hydrogen produced by power-intensive electrolyzers. This and the AI revolution portend a breakdown of the so-called energy transition.”
Climate Change or Just Left-Wing Indoctrination?
By David E. Smith   |   03.09.24
Last year I was at lunch with an evangelist. After the meal, he handed our waitress a Gospel tract. I wanted to reinforce his compassion, so I told the young lady that her relationship with God was the most important thing in the world. She responded, “Yeah, that and global warming!” She proceeded to tell us that she wakes up in fear of what may happen to the earth during her lifetime. I was shocked.
