About 95% of any State of the Union Address is fluff and lies. So was Joe Biden’s last night. All the supposed economic progress he touted is belied by the inflation chewing up family budgets. The new infrastructure and other spending is just pork for favored legislators; such things ought to be built by state and local governments.
One way or another, Europe is once more at the center of developments and might become again the continent where a new and very destructive world war for humanity will start.
The revolutionary American regime, since the 1930s, through compulsory school legislation, child labor laws, and child protection statutes, has gone much further than the USSR n directly attacking even the authority of parents over children
My mother, may God rest her soul, was the only one in the family who had learned to drive.

I am extremely grateful for the movies and television in recent years for enlightening me about the contributions of black people to history.
In this episode Dr. Trifkovic turns our attention to a “great ally” of the United States, Saudi Arabia, and the ongoing challenges that country has faced and will continue to face, as well as its “zero tolerance” policy towards any outward shows of Christianity.
Last week I mentioned in passing the end-of-an-era arrest of Messina Denaro, the last of the great mafia latitanti who evaded capture for decades. Palermo is all abuzz like a disturbed vespiary, and even the usual morning fireworks – a perennial mystery to the visitor – have gone quiet on the news. Absurdly or not, the boom and crackle of the invisible pyrotechny marks the release of somebody of consequence from prison.
