Op-Ed

This Op-Ed ran in today’s Moscow-Pullman Daily News.  It is a further example of how the City of Moscow targets and prosecutes a religious minority it doesn’t like.  It’s been labeled “Stickergate”.  As I discussed in my previous column, a federal judge ruled that a civil rights case can proceed against the city of Moscow […]

In today’s editorial I discuss my navy background as a security manager onboard a submarine and the crimes committed by Biden, Trump, Hillary, and Pence.  The is the unabridged version. You can find the abridged version at the Moscow-Pullman Daily News.  In the mid-1980’s I served as Command Security Manager aboard the ballistic missile nuclear submarine USS

My bi-weekly column ran in today’s Moscow-Pullman Daily News in which I address educational choice in Idaho.  It’s ironic people who are “pro-choice” are only for choice when it comes to murdering a baby but nowhere else.  I want to respond to Marty Trillhaase’s editorial “Nothing subtle will stop a school voucher bill.” Trillhaase despairingly quotes

My Christmas Op-Ed in the Moscow-Pullman Daily News. Merry Christmas, all!  “The scepter shall not depart from Judah, nor the ruler’s staff from between his feet, until Shiloh comes, and to him shall be the obedience of the peoples.” —Gen 49:10, NASB. Over 1,500 years before Jesus’ birth, the children of Israel journeyed to Egypt,

Replying to Doug Call’s fallacious argument that uses University of Washington in Seattle as a metric for Washington State University in Pullman.  Apples and oranges, professor. Apples and oranges.  Doug Call took me to task for arguing that University of Idaho President Scott Green’s decision to grant students the liberty to decide whether to attend

University of Idaho President Scott Green saved the university by making the decision to keep the university up and running during Covid.  That was a data-driven decision as opposed to the political, fear-driven decision made by all the other universities.  My Op-Ed in today’s Moscow-Pullman Daily News.  Washington State University’s fall enrollment dropped by 7.7%

In a stroke of perfect timing, today marks the 100th anniversary of Mussolini’s March on Rome. As I point out, progressives are the historical fascists. This OpEd ran in today’s Moscow-Pullman Daily News and right before the mid-term elections.   Today marks the 100th anniversary of fascist Benito Mussolini’s March on Rome. Back in 1946, George Orwell wrote , “the word Fascism has

My Op-Ed ran in today’s Moscow-Pullman Daily News in which I take on “the woke” for destroying our country. They have done more harm than the Jan 6 rioters have. The timing couldn’t have been better, given Tulsi Gabbard’s announcement yesterday that she is leaving the Democratic Party. And her reasons are summed up below.  The

In this OpEd which ran in today’s Moscow-Pullman Daily News, I critique NBC, Meet the Press, and local Moscowan detractors. As most Daily News readers know, Moscow’s Christ Church was highlighted for twelve minutes on national television in a recent segment of “Meet the Press.” NBC titled it “Christian Nationalism on the Rise.” There were some humorous moments, like

My Op-Ed on the coming Civil War ran in today’s Moscow-Pullman Daily News. In my November Op-ed, I discussed a poll by The University of Virginia’s Center for Politics that found “the divide between Trump and Biden voters is deep, wide, and dangerous. The scope is unprecedented, and it will not be easily fixed.” A

My Op-Ed ran this morning in the Moscow-Pullman Daily News. If you never had college debt, now you do. Thanks, Biden. Congratulations to everyone who didn’t have college debt. Now you do. Last week, President Biden unveiled a sweeping plan to “forgive” billions of dollars in student loan debt. It’s the biggest move ever seen

My OpEd ran in today’s Moscow-Pullman Daily News. Dems are trumpeting the end of inflation and that we are not in a recession. They are wrong for many reasons.  Americans are racking up record levels of credit card debt. A report last Friday from the Federal Reserve shows that Americans are more in debt now

My Op-Ed on school choice ran in today’s Moscow-Pullman Daily News.  A constitutional funding mechanism is now available for all states: the Arizona model. Bottom line: money should follow the child not the system. The Democrats and the teachers’ unions have been busy doing damage control. Because the US birth rate has been falling since

I take on the Democrats notion that gas prices and inflation are all required for the new “liberal world order”. During a May Japanese press conference, President Biden celebrated record-high gas prices, saying that the pain at the pump was part of “an incredible transition” of the US economy away from fossil fuels. A few

My OpEd on the reversal of Roe v. Wade ran in today’s Moscow-Pullman Daily News.  I’ve been a practicing Christian for over 40 years. Since the beginning, I have been praying for the end of the scourge of abortion. Overturning Roe v. Wade is a good first step. The argument presents two sides: conservatives say

There has been a lot of comparisons between the 1980;s inflation and today.  We are not even close to being in the same situation. We’re much, much worse today. Here’s why.  Back in 1944, forty-four nations signed the Bretton Woods Agreement. That multinational agreement linked the US dollar to gold and made the US dollar

In this OpEd, I take on the notion of trans-everything. This ran in today’s Moscow-Pullman Daily News. Seven years ago this week, the news broke that the Spokane NAACP chapter president, Rachel Dolezal, was actually a white woman masquerading as black. When asked by investigative journalists, Dolezal’s white parents provided photos of this blue-eyed, lily-white,

My Op-Ed ran in today’s Moscow-Pullman Daily News.  My three sons and I took a trip to Missouri two weekends ago to visit my brother and sister-in-law. Our experiences on the trip reflect the times in which we live. First, the flights, hotels, and rental car were over twice as expensive as previously. Biden’s plan

My OpEd fully supporting overturning Roe v. Wade ran in today’s Moscow-Pullman Daily News.  Longtime readers of the Moscow-Pullman Daily News will not be surprised that I fully support the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade. The original 1973 Supreme Court decision was unconstitutional. The Court legislated from the bench and outside its judicial authority.
