Holding Hands in Mexico City
MEXICO CITY: On my final day in Mexico City, I had a 40-minute treadmill run at the gym, overlooking a busy street below. As I ran, I found myself watching the rhythm of people crossing at the stoplight. And I was struck by something simple but powerful: affection. Not just couples—but a grandfather holding his […]
Synagogue in Kyiv Hit by ruzzian Drone
A ruzzian drone hit last night (Oct. 24, 2025) in Kyiv, a synagogue in Podil. It was just two blocks from my apartment, where I stayed in July/August. I walked past it every other day during my runs along the Dnipro River. I don’t know why it makes war feel more tangible when something or […]
Linda Yaccarino Resigns X as I Cower in My Bathroom in Kyiv, Ukraine
How fitting that on the day Linda Yaccarino resigns as CEO from Twitter/X and expresses gratitude to Elon Musk “for entrusting me with the responsibility of protecting free speech…” I am cowering in my apartment’s bathroom in Kyiv, Ukraine, at 3 AM because Ruzzia is bombing us again and terrorizing Ukrainian citizens for over three […]
The Most Beautiful Border Crossing of My Life (So Far)
I’ve crossed the Ukrainian border several times now, and each time is unique, but yesterday was my favorite. Sveta is a wonderful human who takes people in need across the border into Poland and onwards to their new home. It can be an abused wife fleeing her husband, an elderly person fleeing a front-line village, […]
Recommended Viewing – Faith Under Siege
Billions have been spent on this and other outlets on a propaganda campaign in an attempt to confuse the simplest case of right versus wrong, good versus evil, that I’ve ever witnessed. It’s time to fight back. Every Christian and person of faith in the world should watch the film Faith Under Siege, now streaming. […]
Intellectual Property Law Under Attack – Surprise, Surprise?
To the shortsighted who have questioned why I can’t just “stick to travel,” here is a good answer. Whether one pays attention to “politics” or not is immaterial because “politics” chooses to pay attention to you, and it always will. Yesterday, I filed for a few remaining copyrights because of this (yet another) disturbing development […]
Big Bird is a Woke, Marxist-Communist?
LINK TO THE ARTICLE So, will the commercial broadcasters, NAB, etc., not raise their voices against this blatant, partisan, and illegal act against one of their brethren? Suddenly, the one who remains steadfast, consistent, and still in their values is a Marxist… is “woke” and “radical.” Big Bird is woke. Better tell your kids. They’ll […]

The Careless, Uninformed, Glib & Damaging Dissemination of Disinformation – Rita C. Article
A Facebook “friend” who claimed to be a journalist wrote an article about the Russian War in Ukraine with so little credibility, journalistic standards, and Russian disinformation that I felt I had to respond to at least some of the disinformation. See Rita’s “article” Rita C. Article (The Yellow Highlights are the excerpts we addressed […]
FCC Chair Brendan Carr is a 13-Year-Old-Boy
The Federal Communications Chair, Brendan Carr, is targeting ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, and NPR (notably, Fox, which owns Fox News Channel, is conspicuously absent – Hmmm, I wonder why?). He claims that the former FCC Chairs who criticized him (one from a Republican administration) suffer from TDS – Trump Derangement Syndrome – because they oppose […]
When Travel Goes Right
WHEN TRAVEL GOES RIGHT— Almost exactly 15 years after a “fake taxi” robbed me of all my camera gear in Buenos Aires, the other evening, I faced another close call when a cyclist tried to steal my iPhone while I was dining outdoors. Fortunately, I was alert, and he failed. I almost grabbed his arm. […]
The War on Free Speech and Free Press
This is an excellent must-read article from the Unpopulist about Trump’s thus far successful attempts to intimidate the media into doing his bidding. From the 60 Minutes and ABC News Lawsuits that have now settled to his henchman sycophant posing as an FCC Chairman, Brendan Carr’s “investigation” into PBS and Comcast. What transparent bullies these […]
