Russia Updating Nuclear Weapon Doctrine Due To Western ‘Escalation’ Of Ukraine War

Russia Updating Nuclear Weapon Doctrine Due To Western ‘Escalation’ Of Ukraine War

In the latest worrisome saber-rattling sparked by the US-led proxy war in Ukraine, Russia announced it's revising its doctrine on the use of nuclear weapons, saying a change has been necessitated by "escalation" initiated by the country's Western adversaries.  Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov told TASS that the update was precipitated by an analysis of  "recent conflicts" including "Western adversaries’ escalation course" in the Ukraine...

Technofascism: The Government Pressured Tech Companies to Censor Users

Technofascism: The Government Pressured Tech Companies to Censor Users

“Internet platforms have a powerful incentive to please important federal officials, and the record in this case shows that high-ranking officials skillfully exploited Facebook’s vulnerability... Not surprisingly these efforts bore fruit. Facebook adopted new rules that better conformed to the officials’ wishes, and many users who expressed disapproved views about the pandemic or COVID–19 vaccines were ‘deplatformed’ or otherwise injured.”—Justice Samuel Alito, dissenting in Murthy v....

Searching for Monsters

Searching for Monsters

“America goes not abroad in search of monsters to destroy …She might become the dictatress of the world,But she would no longer be the ruler of her own spirit.”-- John Quincy Adams (1767-1848) In the middle of his term as Secretary of State, the future president John Quincy Adams addressed a joint session of Congress. What prompted this unusual event? The United States had just fought Britain to a draw in the War of 1812. It was fought almost entirely in Canada. Some historians believe the...

Democrats Lose Effort to Block Cornel West from Michigan Ballot

Democrats Lose Effort to Block Cornel West from Michigan Ballot

For months, we have been discussing the concerted effort of Democrats to bar challengers to President Joe Biden from primary ballots and block third-party candidates like Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and Cornel West from appearing on the November ballots. As both Joe Biden and Kamala Harris insisted that “Democracy is on the ballot,” their allies sought to deny the ability of voters to cast their ballots for other candidates. Now, a state judge has issued a stinging denial of the...

The Western Way of War – Owning the Narrative Trumps Reality

The Western Way of War – Owning the Narrative Trumps Reality

War propaganda and feint are as old as the hills. Nothing new. But what is new is that infowar is no longer the adjunct to wider war objectives – but has become an end in and of itself. The West has come to view “owning” the winning narrative – and presenting the Others as clunky, dissonant, and extremist – as being more important than facing facts-on-the ground. Owning the winning narrative is to win, in this view. Virtual “victory” thus trumps “real” reality. So, war becomes rather the...

Trump and Harris Ignore a Great Danger Facing America

Do We Finally Have a Peace Ticket?

Just as the Harris/Walz campaign was looking for a boost from the content-free Democratic National Convention last week, real drama broke out that pulled the country’s attention back toward Republican candidate Donald Trump. Rumors had been swirling for days that Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. might suspend his independent run for the White House and endorse Donald Trump and on Friday he did just that. In his powerful speech explaining the decision, RFK, Jr. made it clear that suspending his run was...

Russia Is Not Our Enemy

Russia Is Not Our Enemy

Given the ongoing war between the United States and Russia in Ukraine, it’s natural for Americans to conclude that Russia is our enemy. Not so. Our enemy is instead the US national-security establishment — i.e., the Pentagon, the CIA, and the NSA — the entity that is responsible for the war in Ukraine and that is destroying our lives, liberties, and well-being here at home. Our American ancestors would have understood this phenomenon. If the Constitution had called into existence a...

Democrats Release Insanely Hawkish Middle East Policy Platform

Democrats Release Insanely Hawkish Middle East Policy Platform

Celebrity progressive Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez falsely claimed that Vice President Kamala Harris “is working tirelessly to secure a ceasefire in Gaza” at the Democratic National Convention on Monday night. There is literally no evidentiary basis anywhere for this assertion. She made it up. Kamala Harris is not “working tirelessly” to do anything at this time besides become the next president. Her own staff are saying she is opposed to an arms embargo on Israel...

The Political Matrix Sustains the Illusion of Freedom

The Political Matrix Sustains the Illusion of Freedom

What you smell is the stench of a dying republic. Our dying republic. We are trapped in a political matrix intended to sustain the illusion that we are citizens of a constitutional republic. In reality, we are caught somewhere between a kleptocracy (a government ruled by thieves) and a kakistocracy (a government run by unprincipled career politicians, corporations and thieves that panders to the worst vices in our nature and has little regard for the rights of American...

US Calls For Ceasefire But Keeps Supporting War

US Calls For Ceasefire But Keeps Supporting War

On August 12, the US Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, issued a press statement commemorating the anniversary of the adoption of the Geneva Conventions. He said: “The 75th anniversary of the adoption of the 1949 Geneva Conventions is a fitting occasion to reaffirm our commitment to respecting international humanitarian law … We call on others to do the same.” Except Israel.

Washington Needlessly Entangles Its Small Allies

Washington Needlessly Entangles Its Small Allies

America’s founders were extremely worried that the Republic might become entangled in quarrels that were, or should be, irrelevant to America’s own security and well-being. Several prominent founders, including George Washington and Thomas Jefferson, emphasized that danger. Today’s proponents of a new foreign policy based on realism and restraint highlight similar concerns. That worry is entirely legitimate. Since World War II, U.S. leaders have meddled in quarrels around the world, snaring...

The EU Just Declared War on Free Speech in America. It is Time to Fight Back

Below is my column in The Hill on the move of the European Union to force Elon Musk to censor X users, including political speech leading up to the 2024 election. The column discusses this Rockwell painting, which we often use in discussing free speech controversies. Here is the column: Eighty years ago, the U.S. government launched a war bond campaign featuring a painting by artist Norman Rockwell in the struggle against the authoritarian threat from Europe. The picture they chose was...

Anti-Democratic Dem Manipulators Strike Again (and Again)

Anti-Democratic Dem Manipulators Strike Again (and Again)

The Democrats continue to run to course — manipulating — most recently, Joe Biden out of the presidential race. Their history for the last decade has been one of manipulation and dirty tricks, false promises and anti-democratic actions. They campaign claiming Trump is out to destroy democracy when at the same time can’t seem to find enough anti-democratic ways to behave themselves. Dirty tricks have long been a part of politics, but in the last decade the Democrats have turned the machine up...
