Human Interest

It’s been just six months since the first of the Trump administration’s tariffs went into effect and the job gains are already visible. The Coalition for a Prosperous America’s “Tariff Job Creation Tracker” shows over 11,000 jobs have been created or announced since February 1, and that includes only cases where companies have announced specific job counts. Other companies have also said they intend to add jobs, but we’ll wait for those numbers before adding them to our tally.

The DOJ’s IG Report, released a few weeks ago, did not mention the place played by the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), the most powerful special interest group in the country, in their now documented coup to oust President Trump from office. It, with its 5,038 highly influential members, teamed up with the DOJ and FBI and, in fact, the whole intelligence community (CIA NSA, DNI, and etc.) in this effort. 
 

Save the Date

My daughter Shelby is named after a grocery store chain in Idaho.  Odd perhaps for a kid that spent her childhood in Brooklyn, New York and now lives in Park City, Utah.  “Shelby’s” is long gone but the legend lives on.  Seemed like a good name for our first daughter.

Colleges: A Force for Evil

Want to win a political argument? Accuse your opponent of hurting children. 

That's the lesson behind two recent studies regarding the well-being of America's babies.

A new report from the United Nations Children's Fund finds that America's infant mortality rate is only slightly better than Sri Lanka's. The left seized this finding to call for single-payer health care.

Another recent analysis suggests that fracking -- the drilling method that extracts natural gas and oil from shale rock -- can harm babies in the womb.

Enjoy free and discounted shooting at DWR ranges

August is National Shooting Sports Month

If you have a new rifle, handgun, muzzleloader, shotgun or bow, and you want to try it out on some of the best shooting ranges in Utah, check out this offer from the Division of Wildlife Resources:

·         Through Aug. 31, you can enjoy a free day of shooting at either of the DWR’s two shooting ranges. To qualify, just bring the sales receipt for your firearm or bow to either range within 30 days of purchase.

Two environmentalist groups just released a scathing report which concluded that "fracking" -- a technique for extracting oil and natural gas from underground shale rock formations -- poses an unacceptable threat to human health.

The report is deeply flawed. It doesn't offer any original research. It simply compiles previously-published news stories, health reports, and academic papers, most of which have long since been debunked as biased.
