Modern life requires access to a stable supply of energy. 💡
As humanity has refined the process of capturing energy from fossil fuels, life has flourished. In the United States, we are blessed with an abundance of energy resources, including coal, oil, and natural gas. Today, these energy sources provide 80% of the energy we use every day to sustain the modern lives we’ve become accustomed to.

Unfortunately, extreme policies coming from the Left stand to undermine the stability of our energy systems while also making it prohibitively expensive. Anti-fossil fuel energy policies and keep-it-in-the-ground activists have pushed an agenda in the Biden administration that has produced expensive gasoline, increased electricity bills, and reduced reliability. The centerpiece of this agenda is a forced “transition” to renewable energy that is ill-equipped, from a purely technical perspective, to meet modern energy demands.

Some will argue that these energy disruptions, financial pain, and economic suppression today are necessary to save the environment, but this is not true. Flourishing economies lead to better environmental outcomes, and we know how to attain this important balance in the U.S.

Opponents of women’s suffrage attempted to use the courts to deny the right to vote to women. But independent state legislature theory was applied by the Supreme Court to preserve the 19th Amendment. It’s shameful that leftist and partisan women’s groups — who claim to advance the interests of women voters — have forgotten. Read More. ([link removed])

** The Anti-Adoption Drumbeat ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------

November is National Adoption Month, an occasion usually devoted to celebrating adoptive parents and asking more families to step up and care for children whose own parents are unable or unwilling to do so. But this year it might be more appropriate to use the occasion to ask why state and federal agencies put “social justice” above child welfare.

** Some Highlights of the Post-9/11 Veteran ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------

Understanding how every cohort or general era of veterans is in fact often made up of subgroups of veterans who have served across eras, is vital to understanding which services and benefits, and at what scale, particular cohorts of veterans are in need of. It also illustrates how today’s veterans were yesterday’s soldiers, and how their evolution matches the evolution of the U.S. Armed Forces across time.
