According to the American Ornithological Society, bird names are racist and must be changed so that more people will like bird watching. You know how they know this?

Paul Krugman worries that the "Pax Americana" has ended. The culprit? You. https://mcclanahanacademy.com https://brionmcclanahan.com/support http://learntruehistory.com

For years, the iconoclasts have hidden their motivation behind removing Confederate monuments. Their real goal has long been to recreate the American past.

There are people that lay awake at night worrying about this. Why, I am not sure, but it could happen. But those that worry about it don't really understand how it would work. https://mcclanahanacademy.com https://brionmcclanahan.com/support http://learntruehistory.com

The current world military crisis has both sides of the political spectrum scrambling to figure out who to support. The real answer is neither, at least if we adhered to an "American" foreign policy and first principles. https://mcclanahanacademy.com https://brionmcclanahan.com/support http://learntruehistory.com

Jamelle Bouie thinks the founders made a critical mistake by making the United States government too "antimajoritarian."

More Americans are supporting secession than at any time since 1861. The Washington Post wanted to find out why and in a backhanded way stumbled upon the answer. https://mcclanahanacademy.com https://brionmcclanahan.com/support http://learntruehistory.com

Some progressives in Michigan feel betrayed by the now Muslim dominated city council. Why? Because they passed an ordinance making it illegal for pride flags to be displayed on city property. https://mcclanahanacademy.com https://brionmcclanahan.com/support http://learntruehistory.com

Pierre Delecto is retiring. The left weeps. What does this mean for the Republican Party? Not much. https://mcclanahanacademy.com https://brionmcclanahan.com/support http://learntruehistory.com

Drew Gilpin Faust is the definition of an activist historian. How did this happen? Her life story is instructive. https://mcclanahanacademy.com https://brionmcclanahan.com/support http://learntruehistory.com

This is one of those myths that won't disappear, in large part because Americans have been so conditioned to think of the central government as the ONLY government without any understanding of federalism that it makes it easy to come up with some really stupid legal positions. Like the Confederate Constitution made it illegal for States to abolish slavery. https://mcclanahanacademy.com https:/...

Yes, but not the Constitution everyone is talking about. She violated the NEW MEXICO Constitution, but not the U.S. Constitution. This is important. If we want decentralization, we have to be consistent. https://mcclanahanacademy.com https://brionmcclanahan.com/support http://learntruehistory.com

The left wants you to believe that elected sheriffs are a threat to democracy. Why? Because some are suggesting that they can refuse to enforce unconstitutional federal legislation.

Some leftist dopes are really worried about a Republican attack on "democracy." And by "democracy" they mean 50,000 federal government jobs. You can't make up this kind of stupidity. https://mcclanahanacademy.com https://brionmcclanahan.com/support http://learntruehistory.com

The "constitutional scholar" Akhil Amar wants us to forget Thomas Jefferson. You know who else thinks this is a good idea? National Review .
