By Wayne Allensworth The United States of America will soon mark its 250th birthday. But America as such is but a vestige within the body of a failing empire. By “America,” I mean the cultural and demographic core that once defined our country. With a diminishing and divided “red” and “blue” core, “we” are a chaotic mass of competing interest and identity groups. The result might well be...
By Wayne Allensworth There comes a point in your life when resignation takes over. You can sound alarms and experience the horror of realizing just how bad things are — and how much worse they can get. In my youth, such insights drove me. Then you realize that no one is listening or takes your warnings all that seriously. As time goes by, seeming to accelerate as old age changes your frame of...

By Wayne Allensworth The boy jumped over a fence and headed toward the pond, where a rock pile at one end made a rippling waterfall. It’s cold out, a few days past a warm Christmas. The wind is blowing fiercely, and the last leaves have flown and left naked branches on the trees near the pond. The limbs rattle and sway on the tallest trunks. The evergreens provide splashes of color against the...
By Wayne Allensworth It’s approaching mid-November and in the morning sky the rising sun, bright as it climbs in a China blue firmament, has moved closer to the moon, a half orb at this stage, the half facing the sun bright and clear, reflecting morning’s light. The leaves are turning finally, after a second Indian summer and then the onset of fall temperatures. I follow a stream and arch my neck...
By Wayne Allensworth When President Trump’s second term began almost a year ago, I was ready to give him and his team every benefit of every doubt. And it appeared for a while like there might even be some semblance of a plan to dismantle the administrative state. That hope was unfounded. Team Trump has no plan, no strategic vision, and no real understanding of what faces us. What Trump and his...
By Wayne Allensworth The murder of Charlie Kirk was most likely a political killing. An assassination. It isn’t a stretch to assume that the killer is deranged, one of the alienated, marginal, mentally-unstable people postmodern society spawns like poisonous mushrooms. At the same time, the murder was most likely — again, it’s no stretch to assume this — also at least partly the result of leftist...
By Wayne Allensworth By the time you notice that something is terribly wrong it’s often too late to fix it. Much of my adult life has been a slow but steady realization that things were and are worse than I thought. But I’m getting ahead of myself. Let’s back up a bit to a time when I was first beginning a new career and a new life, a convinced Cold Warrior who soon realized that the Cold War was...
By Wayne Allensworth Our conscious memory is like a mist that covers the summit of a vast, awesome mountain. Brain scientists say that we retain memories of everything that ever happened to us. Under hypnosis, or during a near-death experience, a panorama of one’s life can be drawn out of the mist. And sometimes memories veiled by the unconscious mind can still, they say, affect our conscious...
By Wayne Allensworth The Trump administration has taken some important positive steps in its first six months. But there is a lot left to do. Here are some thoughts on where we stand. The United States is at least pausing supplies of weapons to Ukraine. The Pentagon had informed the White House that American weapons stockpiles were being depleted by supplying Kyiv. It’s about time. President...
