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.

What is the "Take Care" Clause?

It's the clause that prevents rogue judges from lording it over the president and erasing his Constitutional powers.

• "Article II of the Constitution provides: “The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America.” The oath derives from the plain text of Article II to “faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.” The only limits on that executive power concern treaties, principal office nominees, and “inferior Officers” whom Congress chooses “by law” to vest the appointment power in. At all times, he “shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed.” The take care clause requires Presidential control of the executive branch and all its personnel, unless expressly removed “by law” by Congress for “inferior officers.” As the Supreme Court surmised: “The entire executive power belongs to the President alone.”

An Easter Message From the American Death Culture

On this most sacred day of the Christian faith, a US president who claims to be a Christian issues a threat to a nation of 94 million people, including over 500,000, Christians—threatening to commit war crimes (pursuant to Geneva Convention) against their civilian infrastructure.

"Behold the puerile, B-movie gangster style of his prose and his use of the word “F..kin’”—now the most overused word in the English language and the clearest expression of our degenerate culture.

"Upon seeing this post, I immediately thought of Madison’s reflections on the evil of war.

"The same malignant aspect . . . may be traced in the inequality of fortunes, and the opportunities of fraud, growing out of a state of war, and in the degeneracy of manners and of morals engendered by both.

"On this Easter Sunday, I pray that the innocent civilians of Iran will be spared from the sadistic and demented wrath of “President DONALD J. TRUMP.”

Mr. Trump's Illusional Bubble, April 1 and 2, 2026

This week, the US President gave an apparently delusional update of the Iran conflict. Iran's military is decimated, and it's President is asking for a cease fire, he reported.

Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesman immediately rejected that. State broadcaster IRIB quoted Esmail Baghaei as saying Trump's statements were false and unfounded.

Trump attributed the request for a ceasefire to Iran's "New Regime President."

On the same day, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian criticized the US war against his country in an open letter to the people of the United States on Wednesday, calling it an absurd operation that is costly for their nation.

Within hours of Mr. Trump's analysis of a destroyed Iranian military, Iran fired more missiles at Israel and Gulf Arab states, demonstrating Tehran’s continued ability to attack even as US President Donald Trump claimed the threat from the country was nearly eliminated and predicted the war would end soon.

In Mr. Trump's speech to the nation, Paul...

Failed Strategy in Real Time

Today's assymetrical warfare: Iran's cheap munitions are taking out American's most expensive aircraft.

One internet observer:

"Iran, still using their pawns, while Israel and the US out there, with only their King n Queen left. Who will fall first?

"5 pawns and a king versus a king and queen in a chess end game, the side with the 8 pawns always wins. 5 pawns is enough. That’s standard.

"In a way, you could call it asymmetrical warfare."
