Well, well, well… what have we here? Sometimes you just have to laugh. Just don’t lose sight of the fact that millions of people believe a) Biden is beating Trump in the majority of polls, b) he’s clearly the favorite to win, and c) Republicans are panicking about a so-called MAGA Meltdown. Now, aside from being a catchy pejorative, from whence doth this term “MAGA Meltdown” come from? Where might...

Ain’t gonna lie. I feel like I’ve been put through the ringer. Drug through a knothole backwards. It’s been a looooooooong day! Okay, I’m done feeling sorry for myself. Let me just open with this outstanding headline over at ZeroHedge today: Quit Complaining About Inflation! The article and analysis hits the nail on the head, and treats us to this delicious quote, reminiscent of what I was saying...

I’m excited. Life is good and getting better, isn’t it? Behold the narrative: * Wall Street rises toward records as it prepares for Friday's jobs report * U.S. Employers Added 303,000 Jobs in 39th Straight Month of Growth * The AI-driven rally means tech earnings should jump 18% as demand booms * Wage growth outpaced inflation in March * U.S. Small Business Job and Wage Growth Remain Steady * Anot...

Happy Friday! This has been an interesting week. I’ve been getting up at 4am and immersing myself in local news like city council meeting agendas, county commissioner packets, official social media feeds. The fruit of this is local news updates on the local radio stations. From there, I branch into updates on state level legislation, press releases of representatives, state announcements, and regi...

Here’s the deal: This week has been wild, as I explain in the video. From the video description: Updates on the current situation, including the Baltimore Barge, Chinese illegals, Trump v. Biden political circus, Royals going bankrupt, Bird Flu striking Texas cattle, the potential for a massive wave of death from the clot shots, and discussion on comparing sources. BONUS: Get a peek into my proces...

Let’s talk about this. ( This is raw and unedited text, the podcast fills in the gaps! ) What is more disturbing: the threat of World War III, or the threat of Biden getting reelected? Setting the fear inducing headlines of our enemies preparing revenge strikes aside for a moment, if you read the fine print over at Drudge this morning, Biden is winning in online betting and has been climbing in th...

Don’t blink. Chronicling the precipitous decline of the United States was never something I intended to do. Prior to the pandemic, I tipped my hat to the pundits who were calling out the play-by-play of the daily political circus, and it always seemed like the craziness was getting worse, but honestly, I never would have imagined how bad it is. As an optimist, it’s hard to admit that things are ac...

Have you happened to notice how each news cycle yanks the public’s attention toward one sensational story after another? I’m sure you have. It’s the classic, “If it’s not one thing, it’s another.” There are endless stories to keep us entertained and distracted, all while the global puppet masters continue to advance their dark and sinister schemes. How many people do you think are getting all spun...

Put on your thinking cap. If I could put everyone who lives in a city in one camp, and everyone who lives in rural America in another, and have a conversation with both, I would in a heartbeat. Given the logistical impossibility of that, I will wade forth attempting to navigate between the two camps, simultaneously speaking to both, attempting to connect my thoughts back to the shared humanity tha...

What a trip! As I was sitting in Reagan International Airport getting ready to jet home, my head was still spinning from the whirlwind of information, conversation, and observations made during the three jam-packed days traveling out to Washington DC for the Debt Crisis Fly-In. That was Friday night, and it’s hard to believe it’s already Monday! Honestly, I’m still processing it all… This trip was...

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.thetorchreport.com Hello to all of my fellow liberty loving Americans, all across the fruited plains! This video is a heart-to-heart sharing a little bit about what I learned in DC, and what I think about it all. The truth is, I’m still processing, so this is pretty real, raw, and relevant—though not so much polished thought. Thank...

So I was sitting in Chicago… My flight had been delayed twice, and I’d be missing the happy hour meet-n-greet in DC… and I was okay with all it. It allowed space for reflection on what’d brought me to that point, the convergence of so many different things in motion, and of course, the natural pondering as to the best path forward. In the present tense: To properly frame what’s about to come out,...

We’ll work our way toward the news, but first, an explanation. I’ve been on the road since last Thursday for a horse event, and all that that implies. As it turned out, this adventure came with a couple unexpected quasi-emergencies throwing a wrench into the mix. The horse, for whatever reason, went ballistic in the trailer, tore off a couple shoes, kicked out the window, and cut up her leg. You c...

It’s Friday. I’m working from the road and things are hopping faster than a one-legged man in a butt-kicking contest. I want to continue the conversation from yesterday’s TR 566 - Looking at Patterns in Language to Solve Root Problems With a Workable P.L.A.N. , and specifically address how we can strategically communicate the values of liberty to those who’ve been so heavily steeped in progressive...

It’s a damn good day. Let’s take a break from the political circus. Lately I’ve been talking to a lot of people in the local area about the need to engage people in our community, listen to what they have to say, and learn to use their language in order to meet people where they are at. I realize that’s not quite as rah-rah as a lot of people think we need to be, but I assure you this is both a pr...

Let the games begin. We the American people are about to get treated to the most spectacular display of political gaslighting, public fleecing, and pestiferous corruption in human history. At first thought, you might think we’ve already been there and done that. We have… but, we ain’t seen nothing yet! Donald Trump and Joe Biden have both supposedly clenched their respective party nominations, set...

** Heads up, my proofreader is unavailable this morning, so this is getting sent out as-is… thank you for the grace!** In case you haven’t noticed, there has been a steady drip of bad news for Boeing in the national headlines, along with a spate of other issues for other airlines around the country. One or two incidences might be considered coincidence; however, this alarming trend seems to point...

Let’s do this. Last night, while I was sipping whiskey and smoking cigars by the bonfire with a friend, the American people we treated to perhaps the most spectacular fleecing in all of recorded history. The sock-puppet president raged about everything from abortion to removing lead pipes—“so every child can drink clean water without risk of getting brain damage”—and shamelessly lied through his t...

Let’s poke fun. Noting the political circus last night, I grabbed this screenshot from Fox News: Tonight is being hyped as Biden’s night, as he looks to set the nation straight with his State of the Union address. If you’d like to pop some popcorn and watch the show, Biden will deliver his address at 9 p.m. Eastern time on ABC, CBS, CNN, FOX, FOX News, MSNBC, NBC, and NewsNation— i.e. plastered ac...

Are you ready for this? We’ve all heard the quip, “Elections have consequences.” It’s a no-brainer, and it goes without saying that stolen elections necessarily have even greater consequences, given that millions of people have been given the shaft and had their choice of leadership rejected in favor of a deep state puppet. At some point, the populace will get tired enough of such abuse, to really...
