When I attended the Abbeville Institute’s Secession Conference in Dallas back in November 2018, most people I know in “normal” life thought, “Sure, she’s a nice gal and all, but man, does she have some wacky ideas!” Well, I don’t think anyone’s rolling their eyes anymore. In liberty parlance, secession simply means the humane act …
In part 1, I described America as having a moral sickness. This disease is highly evident in the $2 trillion “recovery” package Congress just passed on Friday. Forget the fact that only $300 billion of the unfathomable price tag is for the “economic rescue plan” which will throw Monopoly money at lower-income American households. United …
Abbeville Institute founders Drs. Clyde Wilson and Don Livingston recently asked me to help out a gentleman who had contacted them regarding history curriculum suggestions for homeschoolers. We “eggheads … are limited to ‘higher education’ in our knowledge,” Wilson replied playfully, so he and Livingston passed on the request to me. Interestingly, veteran homeschoolers sometimes …
I’ve been homeschooling my three sons (now 12 and twins who are 11) going on 8 years.

In addition to courting “Hispanic Americans” (as described in my last post Open-borders “Bumper”), Jacob Hornberger is also targeting black voters in his bid for the Libertarian Party nomination for president. The diversity force is strong with this one. It’s a black thing Hornberger says the Drug War is “racially bigoted” and that he will …
Many modern thinkers whom I respect – most specifically historian Tom Woods, Antiwar.com’s Scott Horton, comedian Dave Smith, and the venerable Ron Paul – are rallying behind Jacob Hornberger for the Libertarian Party’s nomination for president. The Future of Freedom Foundation founder and former trial attorney told Woods on a recent podcast that his theme is …
