How Much Destruction Are Americans Willing to Take?
The past week saw riots in Atlanta and Boston. In Atlanta, the rioters were allegedly up in arms about the death of Manuel Esteban Paez Teran, an environmental activist who was shot and killed by police after he shot a Georgia State Trooper in the stomach. (The officer survived.) Teran and others were protesting the construction of a new police ...Read more
Keep Power and Control Out of the Hands of the WEF!
The World Economic Forum insect overlords have convened in Davos, Switzerland for their annual confab this week, and once again, their focus is "crisis."
Everything is a "crisis" for the WEF and their minions seeded throughout the world's governments and corporate leaders, and those crises are always "unprecedented." But this year, they're ...Read more
The Warnings Are Everywhere; We Ignore Them at Our Peril
The study of human history reveals plenty of ideologies that have led to oppression, war, the rise of dictatorial regimes, the destruction of economies and the deaths of millions of people. There were, of course, those who tried to warn the public. They were ignored, silenced or even eliminated.
That same pattern is playing out in the United ...Read more
Our Ever-Expanding Government Commits Abuse After Abuse and Usurps Our Rights!
Since we are (at least nominally) a free people, the primary responsibilities of our government should be to protect us from serious external and internal threats. Our federal government -- as well as those of some states and cities -- is no longer doing that because those who control it are more interested in power and personal gain.
Nearly 6 ...Read more
Politics Without Principle Will Devolve Into Chaos
George Santos, a newly elected congressman from Long Island, New York, has been caught in a string of embarrassing lies about his background. He claimed to have received a degree from Baruch College in 2010; he didn't. He claimed to have worked for Goldman Sachs and Citigroup; he didn't. He claimed to own multiple properties; he doesn't. In fact...Read more
A Gift All Americans Should Give Each Other; Reject Propaganda and the Politicization of Our Society!
Earlier this week, I was reading about British actor and podcaster Russell Brand's interview with American actor Tim Robbins. Robbins has become an outspoken critic of the government's COVID-19 policies, at least insofar as the way some Americans chose to react to those policies.
"(T)he results those doctrines, that policy, had on us as human ...Read more
Our Culture's Sick Obsession with Children and Sexuality
I'll start with a point made by writer Sam Thielman in an opinion piece for NBC News online two years ago. The country was up in arms about the film "Cuties" being broadcast on Netflix. The movie featured 11- and 12-year-old French girls in a dance competition; their performances included twerking and other sexually provocative moves while ...Read more
"Save the World" is Drivel Leftist Grifters Slather on Their Lust for Power
Sam Bankman-Fried, founder of colossally failed cryptocurrency platform FTX, is just the latest swindler to parlay grandiose aspirations into a scam that goes down in flames and takes other people's money with it. Bankman-Fried (who goes by "SBF") set records in that department; he is said to have lost up to $51 billion. SBF claimed to be a ...Read more
Things to Be Thankful For
One of the worst aspects of an ever-enlarging government is that it begins to take on an outsized importance in our daily lives. The political parties and people who control them become more important than they should be. Their policies -- especially when they are destructive -- become more important and impactful than they should be. ...Read more
Time to Reject the 'Savior' Class
In the aftermath of the spectacular implosion of startup cryptocurrency exchange FTX, a quick Google search brings up articles asking questions like "Where Did It All Go Wrong?" and "How Did Everyone Miss The Red Flags?"
For insight into the answers, one need only read an article about FTX's founder, Sam Bankman-Fried (who goes by "SBF"). ...Read more
Postmortem 2022
Unlike past elections where certain factors, issues or problems clearly stand out when explaining results, analysis of these midterms feels like assembling a jigsaw puzzle: lots of parts, no clear picture of what happened or what's coming. Here are the pieces I see at this point:
No. 1: There is a big disconnect between what people say matters ...Read more
