Where Can You See a B-25, Air Force One and the B-29 That Bombed Nagasaki?
*Peter Suciu* *Aviation History, * It is the oldest and largest military aviation museum in the world, with more than 360 aircraft and missiles on display—and while it may lack any beaches, the museum still draws in about a million visitors annually, making it one of the most frequently visited tourist attractions in the entire Midwest. During the annual spring break season, many college students may opt to head to Daytona Beach, but throughout the year aviation history buffs may want to make the trek instead to the central Ohio city of Dayton. The sixth-largest city in the Buck... read more
Herschel Walker, Senate Candidate, guest blogger Brian Rhodes
Now that Herschel Walker is running for U.S. senate, liberals have begun their inevitable attack on him. I just saw one person refer to him as a pea brained idiot. Uh huh sure, a pea brained idiot who overcame a speech impediment and bullying as a kid and then went on to become valedictorian of his high school class, a Heisman trophy winner in college, a professional football player, an Olympic athlete, an mma fighter, and a successful business man who started renaissance man foods in 1999 which he’s now grown into the largest minority owned poultry company in the United States prov... read more

PA: Another CRT Panic Tale
So here's a story from my corner of the state that tells you how far the "critical race theory" panic has seeped into the ordinary operations of school districts. Penncrest School District is located in the NW corner of the state, located mostly in Crawford County. It's a mid-sized (around 3500 students K-12) district that was stitched together out of several very small rural districts. The district pops up in the news occasionally, most recently in May of this year when two board members got in a Facebook flap over a collection of LGBTQ+ books displayed at the Maplewood High ... read more
Major League Baseball Could Launch Its Own Streaming Service 
*Stephen Silver* *Technology, Americas* If MLB’s plans come to fruition, then it will represent a major change in how the economics of American professional sports work. Some people have been saying that the business model of regional sports networks (RSNs) is in trouble. For many years, the sports networks were somewhat insulated from trends related to cord-cutting, but the decline of traditional pay-TV has finally begun to make itself felt on the sports side. It’s gotten to the point where the parent company of the Bally’s Sports family of networks is said to be in danger of... read more
Sig Sauer M17: The Military’s New Service Weapon
*Richard Douglas* *Guns, * Runs like a dream. Sig Sauer won the bid for the U.S. Military’s new secondary service weapon. The M17 is making its way into the hands of our military as well as our citizens with the M17 “Commemorative” edition. Now Sig has paved its way with a solid reputation with plenty of guns I bring out to the range regularly. Sig has made its way into media too with guns like the MCX Rattler and P226 being featured in plenty of video games. The M17 even earned a spot in *Call of Duty: Modern Warfare* (2019) as the “M13.” Is the M17 that good or is it a dud? ... read more
"Lies, Lies, Lies!"
*"Lies, Lies, Lies!"* by Jim Rickards "Politicians may be morons when it comes to public policy, but they’re geniuses when it comes to inventing new ways to control your life and steal your money. Tax increases seem old-fashioned compared with new 21st-century ways to take over the financial system to your detriment and make you pay for their pet projects. Take climate, for example... We’re all familiar with how climate alarm has been used to dictate changes in transportation, energy generation and construction codes. Of course, these efforts have been massive failures, as witnesse... read more
Relax, We Got This......
Supply chains got tangled because of idiot lockdowns. They got even more tangled due to idiot laws (AB-5) and union regulations in California. Supply chains remain tangled because our completely unqualified minority-hire Secretary of Transportation can’t be bothered to show up for work during a crisis. We can’t get enough workers because idiots (ie, Democrats) in Washington decided to almost drown the unemployed in largess. In the meantime, we have a leader who we are not sure he knows what planet he's on, and our healthcare policy is in the hands of a tranny who just got promoted... read more

TRUMP'S COLIN POWELL STATEMENT WAS MAINSTREAM REPUBLICANISM
Two of the best-known voices in the mainstream political press seem shocked that Donald Trump's response to the death of Colin Powell was so ... Trump-like. Given the chance to be gracious about someone’s death, or say nothing at all, Trump takes a decidedly different route pic.twitter.com/HMgFAiiRcK — Maggie Haberman (@maggieNYT) October 19, 2021 Donald Trump proved, again, that he is utterly incapable of empathy, grace or even common decencyhttps://t.co/S9RdBLc64V — Chris Cillizza (@ChrisCillizza) October 19, 2021 Trump wrote: Cillizza responded: What Trump's statement should ... read more
