A holiday where we remember Communism: which in its various incarnations has murdered more millions through terror, famine, rapine, war, ecological disasters, and general frightfulness than
any other economic or political system in human history! If you hate humanity and the planet, you’ll
love the Commies ! It is of course also a holiday that we should remember Ronald Reagan, Maggie Thatcher, and Pope John Paul II – these being of course the three public figures most responsible for dragging out the Beast that was Soviet Communism out into the light, pinning it to the ground, and slowly hammering a blessed hawthorn stake through its black, twisted, poisonous, oozing Commie heart.

Scarborough student receives scholarship for families impacted by cancer
Kristen Caldwell of Scarborough has been selected as a recipient of Northwestern Mutual’s Childhood Cancer Sibling Scholarship.
She is among 42 other students nationwide to be recognized for the impact childhood cancer had on them as either a survivor or sibling. Each has received a $5,000 renewable scholarship to help with financial support to attend college.
Caldwell was impacted by her sister’s diagnosis of stage four ovarian cancer in 2016. During that time, Caldwell became interested in politics, ultimately combining her passion for political science and her commitment to finding a cure for cancer. Now a political science major at George Washington University, Caldwell is determined to change laws to make health care and cancer treatments more affordable for those impacted by cancer.

But I wrote this in something of a rain-delay situation. I had to wait about an hour beyond my control to get rolling because the smoke alarms were going off and a sickeningly sweet cloud was hanging about 8 feet above the first floor of my home/workplace. It was difficult to concentrate on what felt like my first day at the Wonka factory.

MADISON, Wis. (AP) The Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals has rejected a third federal lawsuit seeking to invalidate Act 10, the Wisconsin law restricting collective bargaining.
The International Union of Operating Engineers Local 139 and two of its individual members filed a lawsuit that claimed three parts of Act 10 violated their First Amendment rights to free speech and association. Local 139 represents more than 10,000 heavy-equipment operators in the construction industry and nearly 2,500 contractors throughout Wisconsin.
The lawsuit took issue with provisions of Act 10 that made it harder for general-employee unions to retain certification as exclusive bargaining agents, prohibited public-sector employees from collectively bargaining with their general employees over anything except base wages and prohibited public employers from deducting union dues from general empl
