“February was the wettest month in downtown Los Angeles since 1998. With over 12 inches of rain drenching the city, it was the fourth-wettest February -- and the seventh-wettest month overall -- in the city’s nearly 150-year recorded history,” said Judson Jones’ report on Los Angeles’ weather on March 2, 2024, in The New York Times. Just under a year later, Los Angeles is on fire and…

As the Los Angeles-area wildfires continue to burn, the leftist media have found almost every possible way to explain what caused them, while ignoring the obvious facts.

Government excels at NOT getting things done. But politicians promise more things anyway. Kamala Harris declared that our government would “build thousands of miles of fiber-optic cable!” This “Broadband Connectivity Agenda” was supported by “every House Republican on Energy and Commerce,” write Republican representatives.

The world must be getting so much worse! Activists protest everywhere. Listening to them, I’d think hate, homophobia, racism and environmental threats are at record highs. But it’s not true. Despite our ugly election politics, for most people, life is better than ever. Our air and water are cleaner. People live longer and healthier lives. There’s less racism and homophobia. But if they admit…
