Prague Newspaper Quote Hits the Nail on the Head Extraordinarily accurate analysis from a foreign country. God help the USA. Some people have the vocabulary to sum up things in a way that you can quickly understand them. This quote came from the Czech Republic. Someone over there has it figured out. It was translated into English from an article in a Prague newspaper. “The danger to America is not Joe Biden, but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of a B...
History is littered with social and political movements which, while failing to survive as movements, largely achieved their goals. The Prohibition Party's national conventions could take place in a phone booth these days, but its disastrous single policy proposal was adopted as a constitutional amendment, mutated into the equally disastrous war on drugs, and continues to torment the modern marketplace with draconian regulation. Most "socialist" parties have either disappeared into the dustbin of history, or find themselves reduced to glorified...

By Roger Koopman Having served on the Montana Public Service Commission for eight years, I know something about monopolies. The main calling of the PSC is the necessary regulation of natural monopolies, electricity and natural gas utilities being the largest and most critically important of these. Every school kid knows that monopolies aren’t a good thing.

The nation’s top general said Wednesday that there are “lessons to be learned” from a chaotic U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, all while he and other top Pentagon leaders face growing questions over whether the Biden administration has tried to hide the extent of the weapons haul lost to the Taliban.

When you reach Forest Lake, the campground will be up the mountain to the right of the main road, and the lake is a steep hiking trail down from the main road where the campground road intersects. If you are...
