CNN is rewriting history. Again.
Happy Friday! I think I may have just seen the thing that ends any argument about CNN being any type of legitimate news outlet. They recently aired a “people on the street” style segment where they asked Trump supporters if the United States is a democracy. Predictably, these folks said no, explaining that we are […]
Un-Scientific American wants homeschool regulated
Check this out! My friend and fellow education freedom-fighter, Corey DeAngelis keyed me in to a recent article over at Scientific American. They’ve titled it, Children Deserve Uniform Standards in Homeschooling, and, as you might guess, it had a few things to say about the alleged perils of homeschooling. I have to admit that I’ve developed a […]
American Kids Are Financially Illiterate
Good morning! Ok. Let’s talk kids and money. Did you know that the average financial literacy score among young teens is a measly 57%? That’s according to a survey by the National Financial Educators Council. That’s pretty bad—especially when you consider the economic hurdles our kids are set up to face. I wish I could say that […]
Why Dads (and Boys) Matter More Than Ever
Happy Friday! And Happy Father’s Day! Are you old enough to remember when TV dads were portrayed as pillars of wisdom and strength? Characters like Ward Cleaver, Mike Brady, and Andy Griffith set the standard for fatherhood with their level heads and respectability. They were the people their kids could always go to for sage […]
What do all dystopian stories have in common?
Whoaaaa, we’re halfway there… Speaking of things that rocked in the ’80s (and still do), remember how good the movies used to be? A few months ago, I talked about how films like The Goonies and The Lost Boys helped kids like me grow up thinking that we could literally do anything so long as we had some good […]
Hey! Teachers! Leave our kids alone!
I don’t think anyone receiving this email would argue against the observation that there are concerted efforts by people most of us would consider the “bad guys” to influence and shape the minds of our children. A recent study by the Pew Research Center highlights a significant trend: birthrates among left-leaning individuals are lower than […]
The Social Hack Every Kid Should Know
I was talking with a father who’s been going through a challenging situation with his teenage daughter. He had moved his family far away to a place that was completely foreign to them—no familiar faces for thousands of miles. His other children found good friends almost right away and were thriving like never before. But […]
Fauci speaks to Congress. Will he be held accountable?
Isn’t it frustrating being accused of not believing in science because you dare to question things? For several years, those who challenged the government’s COVID response have been wrongly labeled anti-science, selfish, and uncaring… even accused of wanting people to die. But let’s set the record straight: questioning the narrative (especially from government scientists) is the […]
Running Naked to the Finish Line
In the last few years, the slur “conspiracy theorist” has evolved from a term of ridicule to a badge of honor. Yesterday’s Trump conviction proved the OG conspiracy theorist, Robert Welch, prophetic. In 1966, he said the conspirators would figuratively “run naked to the finish line to bridge the short gap between where they had […]
End the Fed! (It’s on my license plate…)
Have you been feeling the pinch of more rising prices this year? You’re not alone. Inflation has been hitting all of us hard.
