If we are all body, mind, and spirit; we require daily focus on exercise/food, writing/media consumption, and prayer/quiet time. (or at least most days, luckily reality is forgiving)

The WSJ’s decision to publish a propaganda op-ed from a representative of a terror regime that is currently murdering thousands of Iranians while also blocking all access to Internet is indefensible. Shows incredibly bad editorial judgement.

Congress is basically just a government welfare program that pays for 500 elderly folks to have staff of young people who help them do social media.

“It doesn’t matter what students read as long as they’re reading” is one of the most influential and dumbest ideas in modern education. But this is exactly what you hear from the “experts” running the education schools at America’s universities. The idea treats reading like a…

If our schools have strayed from their primary duty of transmitting knowledge to students, it is because the activist leaders of American education have deliberately distorted the role of our teachers. I think this is the best think I've yet written. nationalaffairs.com/publications/d…

Why do we do math in school? When I asked this question as a kid, my teachers always told me, “You’ll use it one day.” That’s almost always false. Most adults are never going to be in a sticky situation with two binomials, thinking, thank goodness I can FOIL my way out of this…

The ICE Officers are ENFORCING federal law. Those like ICE Watch are lawbreakers when they go beyond protesting and actively interfere in ICE operations. It is the epitome of moronic commentary to call a duly elected POTUS a "dictator" or "authoritarian" because he is…


It is sad that it takes the Supreme Court to tell us that boys are boys and girls are girls...

They play dumb and pretend gender is abritrarily "assigned" to babies. Sex is observed and acknowledged at birth, not assigned. The only way to qualify as a girl is to be female. That you can reason like this and make it onto the Supreme Court is insane.

Ketanji Brown Jackson: “We are now looking at the definition of a girl and we're saying only people who were girl-assigned at birth qualify.”

Classical education is different because the entire purpose of education is different. Go substitute at your local public school and ask the students the purpose of education. Every time they will tell you something about getting a job. Go sub at the local classical school and…
