Due Dilligence
We have entered into a time where many people think being informed is choosing which side of the partisan divide to parrot. Some fancy themselves intellectuals by mindlessly parroting whatever Jake Tapper tells them to, while others fancy themselves rebels by mindlessly parroting whatever Tucker Carlson says.

CHARLIE’S BRIEF | 2026-08-28
Caveat Emptor
In Brief #96, Charlie looks at the medical community, questionable treatments and competing claims—and asks who bears responsibility when things go wrong. The patient? The doctor? Medical authorities? Or the people promoting the cure?

GO FORTH | 2026-08-04
Meet the Bosco Junior Trades Squad
I told everyone to hire the neighborhood kid next door — so I did it myself, starting with a cactus and a week of vacation.
