[July 28, 2026] The state of Minnesota, under the “leadership” of Governor Tim Walz (yes, that same failed VP candidate), plans to issue “transgender dolls to children.” And these kids could be as young as four.

[July 23, 2026] My view of military officers is that intelligence is the biggest predictor of their success long term.
