The judge flunks

In a recent column by Judge Andrew Napolitano, the ex-judge asserted that the Supreme Court “has already ruled that we each own our bodies” and that “what we do with them in private is not a matter of federal regulatory interest.” The Supreme Court certainly ruled on that second point in the notoriously laughable Griswold v. Connecticut (1965). Every law student since then has laughed their way through Griswold in class because the word “privacy,” which never appears in the Constitution, was “found” there by the Court “under penumbras formed by emanations.” ...

Thompson’s misplaced focus

Representative “GT” Thompson attacks his constituents while ignoring significant problems facing our country. In his recent newsletter, Thompson’s only “bad” news was that his office was “defaced” by “an obscene sign” posted on the door. He included a photo of the offending senior citizen. Rather than address the message in the sign, Thompson whined about the protester. Without evidence, he blamed the Centre County Democratic Committee, whose members participate in protests at his office, along with other groups. In reality, there was a lot of bad news this week: ...

Troops in Williamsport?

“When scaled to comparable population sizes, Williamsport, Pennsylvania, exhibits a higher murder rate per capita than both New York City and Los Angeles.” This startling conclusion from an AI analysis draws from crime data from the FBI’s Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program. This analysis means that if Williamsport possessed the same population as either New York City or Los Angeles, it would theoretically experience a significantly greater number of homicides per 100,000 than these cities currently do because of its elevated per-resident killing rate. According to this ...

Be careful who you trust

I think, many mental health issues of today are a result of people having a hatred for the foundation of the nation and its’ pillars, (Biblical Christianity). The constant claims of, racism and America was reliant upon slavery for prosperity (same claim made by people invested in illegal immigrants, for profit, and a miserable existence for illegals caught in the web of the cartels and their greedy cohorts in America! The same party that made the same claims that pushed our Civil War! *then it was cotton; today it’s strawberries*); NOTHING HAS CHANGED! Until people learn our ...

Fiddles and fools

Since meeting with Putin, Trump has certainly been busy saying things. But his words are just noise. Putin has also been busy making noise. Unfortunately, Putin is making noise with bullets, shells, bombs, and missiles striking Ukraine. Putin is playing Trump like a fiddle, and for a fool.

Democrats in name only

This is for those of you who identify as registered Democrats. I want to believe you are an American who believes in the formula that defines the Republic, not a Democrat, as defined by the party’s doctrine. Currently, the Democratic platform is designed to disrupt and disagree with everything the current administration has done for the people and the world. The party and its controlled media are doing everything in their power to destroy the President and the country. Their support for lawlessness, criminals, and declared Communists running for office is the new plank in their ...
