“Freedom has more often been lost in small steps by progressive incrementalism, than it has been by catastrophic upheavals such as violence or war.” -- James Madison (1751-1836) Last week, the US Circuit Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, which covers Louisiana,...
As part of the US campaign to engineer a regime change in Iran, the US military and intelligence community are using Operational Preparation of the Environmnet aka OPE. OPE is defined in joint publications (e.g., JP 3-05 Special Operations) as non-intelligence...
Propaganda usually works in a drip-drip-drip fashion. Small stories are launched each other day spreading the similar talking points over and over again But today, due to some mix up, two of the major propaganda outlets, the New York Times and...
It is not a glitch (that nothing gets resolved). It’s a feature. For it opens rather, a path for “Business” to be done – for “stakeholder” deals to be cut, and for billions to be shared out in payoffs. This is Trump’s geo-political transactional model: Business...
Kaja Kallas stood at the 62nd Munich Security Conference, at the Hotel Bayerischer Hof where the Atlantic Empire had assembled not to project power but to perform its own autopsy while the patient was still breathing — and delivered what she imagined was a...
US policymakers, particularly under the current Trump administration (as of February 2026), consistently describe Iran as the world’s leading or foremost state sponsor of terrorism. This characterization has been a cornerstone of US policy toward Iran for decades,...
Last week I had the pleasure to again appear on Tucker Carlson’s popular broadcast. Although the program appears on several different platforms, on X alone the episode has been seen by more than two and a half million people. That does not include the various clips...
Days ahead of another round of talks with US negotiators -- and on the heels of more saber-rattling by the Trump administration -- Iran is touting the potential mutual economic benefits of a deal that would terminate the West's long-running sanctions...
As the White House threatens war against Cuba, I am reminded of the charming evenings my parents and I spent at Havana’s venerable ‘Floridita Bar, sipping a newly invented cocktail, the Margarita, with the renowned writer, Ernest Hemingway. `Papa’ Hemingway, who then...
They like to pretend it came out of nowhere. They like the bedtime story: Europe was peacefully humming along in its post-history spa — open borders, cheap energy, NATO as a charity, Russia as a gas station with a flag… and then, one day, the barbarian kicked the door...
It appears the main topic of discussion at Wednesday’s meeting between Donald Trump and Bibi Netanyahu was Iran’s ballistic missile program. It really was not a discussion… Instead it was Bibi, with his advisers, trying to sell Trump and his team on the necessity of...
Last fall during the opening of the United Nations in New York City, I recognized the face of a federal officer from his days working in law enforcement in New Jersey and mine as a trial judge. We chatted and I asked him what he was doing. He told me he worked for...
The Trump administration is using a secret indictment to assert leverage over Venezuela’s Acting President Delcy Rodríguez, according to the editor-in-chief of the US government-funded outlet, Armando.info. “One of the information we manage is that the US is holding...
“Love your enemies.”— Jesus Christ “I hate my opponent and I don’t want the best for them.”—President Trump This country was built on the radical idea that government exists to serve the people—not to control them, monitor them, manage them, or rule over them....
Although President Donald J. Trump has amplified his attacks against Kentucky representative Thomas Massie on the basis of deluded claims that he is a radical, un-American liberal who is hellbent on sabotaging his administration, it is the congressman’s continued...
After Epstein, nothing can continue as before: Neither the post war “never again” values – reflecting sentiment at the end of bloody wars – and the widespread yearning for a “fairer” society; nor the bipolar economics of extreme disparities in wealth; nor trust –...
Sergey Lavrov didn’t hedge. He didn’t soften. He lit the match and let it burn. “In Anchorage, we accepted the United States’ proposal.” And now, he says, Washington is no longer prepared to implement what it itself put on the table — not on Ukraine, not on expanded...
Pressure is building on Donald Trump to attack Iran. Besides the US carrier strike group that is positioned in the Arabian Sea south of Iran, the US is marshaling a significant number of air assets — primarily F-35s — in the region. More worrisome is that Israel’s...
