Broken civilizations get rebuilt at the local community level as families, businesses, churches and small civil governments begin to learn what those local institutions can be. That is happening right now in the US, primarily in rural counties.

Hey. Has Anyone Told You About THIS Climate Change?

If not, why not? The world’s eco-anxiety over “climate change” has turned into a totally irrational eco-panic.

Entire government agencies are being weaponized to eliminate farming and transportation. Because “climate change.” And if anyone contradicts the climate change religion, he is ridiculed, demonized, silenced and then canceled.

The following news is not new. It has been known since 2016. Summarizes Matt Ridley, “Green vegetation is changing faster than global average temperatures.” And the change is upward, not the other way around. The world is much greener.

The evidence comes from the growth rate of plants and from satellite data: a 14% increase in green vegetation over 30 years, thanks to...guess what? An increase of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide.

Lead author on the study, Zaichun Zhu of Beijing University, says this is equivalent to adding a new continent of green vegetation twice the size of the mainland United States.

It is past time to turn off the eco-panic. Desertification of our planet has now largely reversed. This is because plants lose less water in the process of absorbing carbon dioxide if the concentration of carbon dioxide is higher.

This “global greening” has affected all ecosystems for the better — from arctic tundra to coral reefs to plankton to tropical rain forests and, of course, farms. It is our fear-gripped, self-righteous politicians who are harming our planet and designing for us a bleak future on a barren landscape.

When Did America Stumble Into Destructive Pluralism?

The “Statute of Virginia for Religious Freedom” was a law passed by the Virginia General Assembly in 1786 that protected the rights of its citizens to worship as they chose.

The bill was originally drafted by Thomas Jefferson in 1779. Some years after the passage of the Statute, Jefferson wrote that during the earlier debate in the General Assembly there had been an effort to limit the protection to Christians. However, this effort was defeated, showing that, as Jefferson noted, “it’s protection of opinion was meant to be universal.” He wrote:

Where the preamble declares that coercion is a departure from the plan of the holy author of our religion, an amendment was proposed, by inserting the word “Jesus Christ,” so that it should read “a departure from the plan of Jesus Christ, the holy author of our religion” the insertion was rejected by a great majority, in proof that they meant to comprehend, within the mantle of it’s [sic] protection, the Jew and the ...

The Ukraine media narrative is something beyond stupid...

In the face of reality, and in the presence of those who know the details of the destructive proxy war, the narrative of the media is worse than ludicrous:

Ukraine can win the war with just a little more American money and a few more guns.

Trump: “So I asked Orbán if Ukraine could defeat Russia.

"He looked at me as if I had said something very stupid. And he said that Russia is a huge country. They fight, that’s what they do. China beats you with trade; Russia beats you with war." 

Having read the writings and speeches of Orban, I would imagine there was much more to Orban's answer.  I think Orban would have reminded Trump of Putin's historic intent: defend Russian national security interests in way that would prove to Zelensky that an offensive and provocative war could never succeed.  Ukraine had provoked and invaded Russia. Russia was determined to defend herself.

This Zelensky realized by day five, and was eager to get to the negotiating table to stop the ...
