    A Week of Warmth - Catholic Husband

    St. Joseph protected his family as he walked through the desert to Egypt. He protected his family during their time in a foreign land, and all the way back home. This week, he protected my family. For his intercession, I am grateful.

  • Texas Spins Into the Wind - WSJ

    Between 12 a.m. on Feb. 8 and Feb. 16, wind power plunged 93% while coal increased 47% and gas 450%, according to the EIA.

    The portrayal of renewables as innocent in this mess isn’t just gaslighting, it’s a lie.

    The proof is in the pudding.
