fromBrownstoneInstitute: "It had a loud part and a quiet part. The loud part talked about washing hands and staying home from work. The quiet part was in very small print on the bottom of page two."

fromQuillette: Addiction is defined as using a substance or engaging in behaviors in a compulsive manner despite harmful consequences. Opioid and alcohol addiction are classic examples. Over the years, the definition of addiction has expanded to include activities such as shopping and golf. But when one thinks about it, we all have compulsive behaviors that border on the harmful.

fromOrganicPrepper: If governments around the world are trying to make farming financially impossible, what do they expect us to eat instead? Insects.

fromTheFIRE: When Washington Post reporter David Weigel retweeted a joke in early June, he probably didn’t expect to be suspended without pay for a month, or for it to lead to a newsroom blowup culminating in another reporter’s firing and a very public black eye for the Post.

fromTwitchy: You know who builds blacklists? Authoritarians. And here’s the thing, you don’t have to be a fan of Putin’s to realize what Zelensky is doing here by ‘blacklisting’ people is effed up, especially when it’s people like Tulsi Gabbard, Rand Paul, and Glenn Greenwald. Glenn is none-too-pleased with being put on the list.

fromPostMillennial: "More sharing can reduce ownership of idle equipment and thus material usage."

fromRutherfordInstitute: Be warned: the DNA detectives are on the prowl.


fromWashingtonExaminer: More migrants have been found dead on the U.S. side of the southern border over the past nine months than have ever been recorded over a full year in history.

fromEricPetersAutos: The fact that Fauci graduated from medical school says much about the worth of medical school – at least, if this man is an example of the results of such schooling. For he is either an imbecile – as defined in the pre-politically correct days as a person having a very low IQ and poor cognitive function – or he is evil.

fromInsideHook: Here’s how much prices for tickets, hot dogs and beer are up this season.

fromReason: The Senate majority leader’s marijuana bill would pile on more taxes and regulations, despite years of complaints about the barriers they create.

fromAmericanGreatness: The transformation of the Democrats from a working man's labor party into today's identity politics-driven woke monstrosity did not transpire overnight, but that transformation is now complete.

fromJohnStossel/Creators: When the processors shut down, some ranchers who couldn't get to a federally approved slaughterhouse ended up killing their own animals. If only they'd been able to go to a local processor.                          Regulation Nation

fromJohnStossel/Creators: Just as the green agenda is falling into complete discredit, what with the example of Sri Lanka, which "went green" and saw its economy collapse, and the Netherlands, whose green agenda set off a mass agricultural sector revolt, here comes its zombie.      Political Correctness and Other Nitwittery

fromStephenMoore/Creators: Any aging baby boomer (like myself) knows that the anthem of the radicals of the 1960s and 1970s was sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll. Let the good times roll. Back then, the joke was that a conservative was someone who lived in mortal fear that someone, somewhere, was having fun. But if this new generation of authoritarian liberals has its way, sex and rock 'n' roll will be illegal.

fromLibertyPen/YouTube: It was never about safety. It was always about control.

fromNYPost: Can there be any better proof that the White House knows the economy stinks than its lame attempt to paint six months of falling GDP as not so terrible? (Or does President Joe Biden think fewer goods and services — which is what falling GDP means — is a good thing?).
