Musk’s DOGE hackers could only find .00008 of the DoD budget to cut, all for “woke” programs. No efficiency cuts for wasteful spending, no elimination of cost overruns, no cuts of obsolete programs. Just more DOGE Thought Police censorship.…

Pope Leo spent most of his career in Latin America, helping the poor. So the cardinals sent the world a message: Here is the American Pope you’ve been waiting for, and, surprise, this one actually understands what Christianity is all about. This guy is as woke as Jesus.…
Chip Northrup’s letter to the editor titled “‘We the People’ Versus Tyrants” that appeared in the April 24 edition of “The Freeman’s Journal” accurately portrayed my distant ancestor, John Adams, as an ardent critic of the tyranny of King George.…
