A few weeks ago, I had a post (“Q: What nation on Earth has reduced its carbon emissions more than any other?“) that featured a video of Dr. Patrick Michaels, director of the Center for the Study of Science at the Cato Institute, who suggested that the answer to the question was “the USA.” There was some discussion in the comment section about where there were other countries that had reduced CO2 emissions more than the US, e.g., Russian Federation.

Poll: Only 36% of Americans Support Ban on Semi-Auto 'Assault' Rifles
Despite the horrific mass shootings in Orlando, San Bernardino, and Newtown, among others, where semi-automatic rifles were used, only 36% of Americans support banning such weapons, a percentage that is down from 44% in 2012 and 57% in 1996, according to Gallup, which conducted the latest survey. In addition, 61% of Americans totally oppose such a ban.
The Media Has a Weird Obsession With Trump's Love of McDonald's
It appears some in the left-wing propaganda mill media have a developed an exciting and strange new obsession with Donald Trump’s love of McDonald's cheeseburgers. We’re not sure why.

Democrats Take Control of Washington State. What Does It Mean?
Special election results from the 45th legislative district (Woodinville/Redmond) last night indicate that the Democrats just took control of the Washington State Senate. With that change, Democrats now control the Governor’s mansion and both branches of the legislature. If you care about life or religious freedom, your situation just became much more difficult.

Repeal HIT on Consumers and Small Businesses
After a one-year moratorium, a new Obamacare tax will kick in this January. The HIT [Health Insurance Tax] will fall almost exclusively on small businesses and on families and individuals buying insurance on their own. Those effects make the health insurance tax one of Obamacare’s more damaging taxes. As with the other Obamacare taxes, it should be repealed.

The Year That Changed History
Sometimes, just a few months can change the course of civilization. That’s what happened in 1942 when a series of decisive events changed the trajectory of World War II. Before that turning point, Germany seemed destined for victory. In 1939 and 1940, Hitler’s army had won a series of border wars, giving the Fuhrer control over ten conquered European countries. By the autumn of 1940, Britain was the sole European power standing against Hitler—and it was being mercilessly bombed by the Luftwaffe. At the same time, Russia was colluding with Germany, and America remained isolationist. Hitler and his allies, who reigned over an area larger than the present European Union, believed that the European wars were over, for all purposes—and decisively won.
