We all know the routine: Dad (and maybe Mom) gets home from work and then it's one child off to soccer and another to gymnastics, and homework and lunch preparation for the next day, and so on – and this is repeated day after day. It's exhausting. Daniel Prince decided: this is no way for a family to live. So he chose a different path.

Tucker Carlson recently interviewed Lydia Brimelow of the VDARE website on the lawfare directed against them, but in general it's been ignored. But it shouldn't be. Lydia and her colleagues are obviously being targeted for their political views despite not having broken any laws, and this phenomenon is unlikely to end here.

I had a very fruitful and enjoyable discussion with Kim Iversen on the Kim Iversen Show a week or so ago, so I invited Kim onto the ol' Tom Woods Show. Kim would have described herself as a progressive before the Covid fiasco, but the government response and the groupthink, along with other lingering issues, pushed her out.
