  • No Public Funds for Secular or Religious Charter Schools

    No Public Funds for Secular or Religious Charter Schools

    Charter schools are private entities. They are businesses first and foremost, not schools. Calling them “public” does not make them public in any way, shape, or form. They also remain private in character whether they are considered secular or religious, or non-profit or for-profit. As private organizations, charter schools have no valid claim to public […]

  • Jesse Jackson: 1941-2026

    Jesse Jackson: 1941-2026

    His life work was mobilizing members of an underclass that was presumed not to exist where the “American Dream” reigned.

  • 21st Century Common Sense, Part One

    A quarter of the way through this century, there is no doubt that the USA and the world are in deep trouble.

    Red, Orange, and Reaction: Thailand’s Electoral Crossroads

    As the people of Thailand go to the polls this February, voters are offered three competing visions of progress: one that builds power from the village up, one that critiques from the seminar room, and one that pays to keep the countryside quiet. Amid the ongoing border war with Cambodia, Thailand is a microcosm of […]

  • Denmark’s Prime Minister Suffers from Delusions and Calls All Russians “Crazy”

    Mette Frederiksen’s world view and threat statements as well as her disturbing stereotyping of the Russian people are beyond normal and must be seen as a threat to Denmark’s and Europe’s future. Note the Prime Minister’s discriminatory remarks about the Russian people, which I document in the Note below. As Prime Minister, she speaks in […]

  • Fearing Immigration: The Australian Coalition and the Return of Bad Habits

    Killing political leaders – metaphorically and actually – often ushers in a silly season where the Mad Hatter presides over an imbecilic party. Amidst coups, defections, dethronements and confusions on the right of Australia politics, we see ugly topics return to the fore with ghastly predictability. The Liberals, the Nationals, and Pauline Hanson’s One Nation […]
