One of the things the Great Land is best known for is the fishing. Salmon, trout, grayling, and in the ocean, rockfish, cod, and halibut. Halibut is my favorite fish to eat, a clean, white, delicious fish. When we go out on a saltwater excursion and bring in a load of fish, we often end up giving away some of the rock and cod, but the halibut, I keep for myself. With that said, I’m going to present this story, just for the halibut. Over the past decade, it's become more difficult for commercial halibut fishermen off Alaska's coasts to catch enough to meet their quotas, as the flat whitefish have

If they go by what the establishment media says, future ages will regard our lucky times as the days when veritable gods in human form walked among us, and lo, their names were Barack and Michelle Obama. The media is unstinting and unembarrassed in its fawning over the sainted couple, no matter how ludicrous its adulation gets. These days, Michelle Obama seems determined to test the limits of that ludicrousness, and to push her media sycophants to ever-greater heights of feigned ecstasy at her endless victimhood posturing and mundane pronouncements dressed as wisdom. Her latest book, a heavy $50 coffee-table doorstop entitled The Look, is all about how she became

The shooting of two National Guard members near the White House on Thanksgiving Eve has sparked a fierce debate over Joe Biden’s Afghan resettlement program, and the mainstream media clearly find themselves on the wrong side of it. In fact, CNN’s shocking response shows that the left cares more about protecting Afghan immigrants than fixing the national security mess Biden created. Last week, Spc. Sarah Beckstrom, 20, and Staff Sgt. Andrew Wolfe, 24, were ambushed and shot by Rahmanullah Lakanwal, a 29-year-old Afghan national who overstayed his visa after entering through Biden’s Operation Allies Welcome.

The president warned everyone to avoid the airspace over or alongside Venezuela this week. “To all Airlines, Pilots, Drug Dealers, and Human Traffickers, please consider THE AIRSPACE ABOVE AND SURROUNDING VENEZUELA TO BE CLOSED IN ITS ENTIRETY.” We have positioned a serious armada on that country’s shore. Among the explanations for these moves the most plausible I can find is Jeff Childers', who once again documents his views with credible links. The Caribbean communist country is practically daring us to do something about it. “China has poured millions into Venezuelan oil projects and loans,” the Guardian explained. Literally poured. That’s how much money China has. Meanwhile, the paper continued, “Russia has armed Venezuelan

The holidays are getting underway, and most of us are in a festive mood. (Especially me, having just returned from a terrific week in Amsterdam, about which I will do a post if there is overwhelming public demand.) But to be honest, the news wasn’t great. The issue of Somali fraud in Minnesota finally went national in a big way, which you could see as a positive, but the underlying reality is too depressing to contemplate. The search for peace in Ukraine continued to be elusive. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s political career flamed out. Six Democratic politicians encouraged service members to engage in insurrection. And, at week’s end, an Afghan “refugee"

On Wednesday, an Afghan national ambushed two National Guardsmen just steps from the White House. What was he doing here? Well, the suspect, Rahmanullah Lakanwal, arrived in the U.S. in September 2021 through Operation Allies Welcome, in the aftermath of Biden’s botched withdrawal from Afghanistan. Of course, the Biden administration assured Americans that every Afghan entering under that program went through strict vetting. Few believed it then, and it certainly rings hollow now; the shooting looks like a direct consequence of the recklessness that defined Biden’s withdrawal. And Charlie Kirk not only warned us about this, but also believed it was intentional.

We interrupt the current cold civil war to bring you coverage of the onset of the color revolution in America. The clearest sign is a literal sign, a billboard outside of Fort Bragg in Fayetteville, North Carolina. From the Fayetteville Observer, Billboard in Fayetteville asks airborne soldiers if they joined the Army to serve ICE. The Observer reports, A new ad campaign on a Skibo Road billboard in Fayetteville encourages servicemembers to join its cause by asking, “Did you go airborne just to pull security for ICE?” Sponsored by Win Without War, a progressive advocacy group that promotes diplomatic, peaceful and human-rights-based foreign policy, the billboards were launched across the U.S. this month,

Charlie Sheen is not known for holding back. But a recent conversation with Megyn Kelly offered something rare from a Hollywood figure: humility, self-reflection, and a willingness to admit he might have been wrong. Kelly asked Sheen this past weekend if he had grown more comfortable discussing his increasingly right-leaning views, especially given his father Martin Sheen’s long-standing ties to Hollywood’s leftist elitism. Sheen, who is promoting a book, said that he had. He told Kelly that many people, himself included, remain “beholden to the structure of the house that we were raised in.” Sheen then divulged some truth about the left’s policies, not only in his native California, but everywhere run by Democrats.

One of the young women convicted in the infamous “Slender Man” stabbing of her classmate in 2014 is back in the news after being apprehended by police in Wisconsin. Morgan Geyser was 12 when she and her friend Anissa Weier took another girl, Payton Leutner, into the woods in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and tried to kill her to please “Slender Man,” a fictional character that became popular online. After pleading guilty to first-degree intentional homicide, the Post Millennial reports she explained her actions through mental illness. In January, The Mirror reported that Geyser was granted a conditional release from Winnebago Mental Health Institute, where she had been kept since the crime.

The death of William F. Buckley, Jr. on February 27, 2008, deprived the modern American conservative movement of its founder, for Buckley was preeminently the founding statesman of the movement that gained its political expression first in Barry Goldwater and then Ronald Reagan. When Buckley founded National Review in 1955 at the age of 29, he lit the fire that sparked the movement. Yesterday was the centennial anniversary of his birth. Buckley had already achieved notoriety–if not celebrity–with the publication of God and Man at Yale in 1951. He attacked the undergraduate education on offer at Yale for its hostility to Christianity and its adulation of collectivism. He sought to dispel

Climate activist Greta Thunberg was banned from Venice for 48 hours and fined £132 after she and fellow Extinction Rebellion activists dyed the Grand Canal green in a protest over the weekend. Thirty-five other activists received the same punishment. The activists said they used an environmentally harmless dye to draw attention to the “massive effects of climate collapse.” The protest took place to coincide with the conclusion of the Cop30 United Nations climate conference in Brazil. The group also displayed a banner reading “Stop Ecocide” from the Rialto Bridge and staged a flash-mob in which protesters, dressed in red with veils over their faces, walked slowly through crowds of tourists.

California gubernatorial candidate and Democrat Rep. Eric Swalwell (CA-14) claims that military members have privately confided in him plans to serve as a "check" to any orders issued by President Trump, suggesting they could defy their superiors. The idea that service members are secretly huddling with a congressman who can't bench press above 135 and whose top athletic feat was having to retire from soccer after breaking both of his thumbs is specious at best. That said, his remarks are an attempt to keep the sedition train rolling in the wake of a video from six Democratic lawmakers encouraging military members to defy orders from their superiors.
