We have no choice. America has to build AI as fast as it can, and it has to dominate the technology. The only thing we can reasonably expect to control is how we do it. amgreatness.com/2026/09/23/a…

Agreed. This is awful.

CHINESE CONTROLLING CALIFORNIA POT INDUSTRY. They’re growing it on American soil. They’re spraying it with banned Chinese poison. Some of those chemicals are fatal if inhaled. Siskiyou County — under Mount Shasta — is ground zero. Chinese criminal networks turned a California paradise into an industrial black-market factory. Sheriffs keep pulling the same bags off the dirt: Chinese-labeled fumigants that never should have entered the country. The county declared an emergency. First responders have been burned and hospitalized. The crop doesn’t stay in the hills. It moves. This is not a culture war. This is sovereignty. American land. American water. American lungs. If “America First” means anything, it means we don’t let foreign criminal orgs occupy U.S. dirt, poison the product, and walk while rural sheriffs fight it with a fraction of the resources they need. Enforce it. Test it. Smash the networks. Protect the people who live next to it.

EXCLUSIVE: Chinese criminal gangs with links to the CCP have built an illegal cannabis empire in Siskiyou County, California. They're generating $2 billion a year in revenues and criminal growers are now 20% of the entire population. Gavin Newsom is doing nothing to stop them.

In the dawning electric era, electricity hogs are not just data centers. Converting homes to heat pumps, cars and trucks to EVs, investing in large scale desalination, and deploying millions of robots will require tens of thousands of additional TWh. californiaglobe.com/fr/rings…

Accurately quoted, offering accurate facts. Floating offshore wind projects will never make competitive economic sense. But the comments are brutal. You will never convince an uninformed fanatic, nor anyone whose paycheck depends on not seeing reason. piped.video/watch?v=UIiL2XW5…

On the issues of trade, national security, high density "infill" housing, civil liberties, and immigration, libertarian policy positions are closer to the far left than they are to conservatives. And their candidates are spoilers in close elections. amgreatness.com/2026/09/16/a…

Tucker Carlson's alignment with Abdul El-Sayed is a drift toward a toxic realignment that I specifically warned against in 2020. Civic Nationalism can save America, restore our shared identity, and relieve polarization. It's not corny, it's not a cop-out. amgreatness.com/2020/08/15/o…

Back in 1976, Governor Jerry Brown delivered a State of the State Address that has a surprisingly timely set of recommendations. Maybe Governor Newsom could read and incorporate some of these smart ideas. governors.library.ca.gov/add…

I think about this all the time. One of the single dumbest decisions in history.

If you want to know what's really behind the US/Canada trade dispute, watch this video. The issue is much bigger, affecting critical industries across the US economy. Libertarian "free trade" ideologues, please watch and take note: You're being used. piped.video/watch?v=BXLGV0Sj…

Four of this AP reporter's most recent articles discuss the US/Canada trade dispute. Not ONE of them mentions China. Even if Canada is not importing subsidized products from China, slapping a Canadian label on them, and dumping them in the US, it is a serious accusation that needs to be either acknowledged or debunked. It is at the heart of the dispute. This senior writer for the Associated Press is not incompetent. He is willfully misleading readers in both countries. Premier Carney is willing to launder Chinese exports, while everyone knows that Chinese mercantilism is destroying critical industries in the US and Canada. Reporters like Rob Gillies are irresponsible to downplay China's role in this trade dispute, again, to put it very mildly.

Last week I had the privilege of talking at length with Nick Papagni on his radio show AgNet West. We explored solutions to water scarcity as well as what's preventing those solutions from being realized. It was posted this week in two segments: agnetwest.com/edward-ring-ca… agnetwest.com/edward-ring-ca…

Nowhere in the updated draft of the Delta Water Quality Control Plan, which micromanages every channel and tributary in the Sacramento-San Joaquin watershed, is any attempt to quantify how much water pouring into the San Francisco Bay every year is enough to ensure ecosystem health. How is this not relevant? Why is it, for example, that in the water year ended 9/30/2020, 7.0 million acre feet (MAF) flowed into the SF Bay and 3.5 MAF was pumped into the California and Delta Mendota aqueducts, but so far through 8/31/2026, with 12.9 MAF already flowed into the SF Bay, only 3.0 MAF made it into the California and Delta Mendota aqueducts? How is it that after four years of extraordinary rain, with reservoirs full, and a super El Nino on the way, with just a month left in our water year, we have only managed to pump 3.0 MAF south for our farms and cities? Moving on, why is there no mention whatsoever in this “Water Quality Control Plan” of the need to restore flow capacity, especially in the south channels of the delta? While the plan is not meant to specify actual projects, it nonetheless mentions flood bypasses and tidal wetland projects, and it acknowledges the need to reduce the velocity of flows. So here’s a specific comment for the SWRCB, based on a simple calculation: At an ideal downstream flow velocity of 4 feet per second for juvenile salmonids, a channel 2 feet deep and 100 feet wide can sustain a flow of 800 CFS. If that same channel is restored to an 8 foot depth, the same flow velocity will deliver 3,200 CFS downstream. This is yet another reason salmon thrived in a channelized environment during an entire century when dredging was permitted. These deeper channels, by the way, would ensure cooler water in the depths. The intricacy of the processes described in this draft, and the number of stakeholders granted a role in those processes, guarantees that nothing will happen unless there is strong leadership. The SWRCB appears to retain that authority. Will they set big priorities and demand big results? Here are some recommendations: Clean up the treatment plants along the SF Bay and delta waterways that discharge more than a half-million acre feet of nitrogen rich sewage every year. Do it by moving the effluent into new wetlands where marsh grass can absorb the nitrogen while creating fish habitat, and use the sediment from dredging to construct them. Or go on with process for the sake of process. That is clearly a proven skill for our state’s water bureaucrats, and the more the merrier. californiaglobe.com/fr/rings…
