Make Money Free Again

Two days after Donald Trump became the first American since Grover Cleveland to win nonconsecutive presidential elections, the Federal Reserve announced a quarter percent cut in interest rates. Following this announcement, Fed Chairman Jerome Powell held a press conference where he said that he would not comply with any presidential request that he step down before his term ends in May of 2026. Powell claimed that the president lacks the legal authority to fire the Fed chairman. So, if...

The CDC Planned Quarantine Camps Nationwide

The CDC Planned Quarantine Camps Nationwide

by | Nov 8, 2024 |

No matter how bad you think Covid policies were, they were intended to be worse.  Consider the vaccine passports alone. Six cities were locked down to include only the vaccinated in public indoor places. They were New York City, Boston, Chicago, New Orleans, Washington, D.C., and Seattle. The plan was to enforce this with a vaccine passport. It broke. Once the news leaked that the shot didn’t stop infection or transmission, the planners lost public support and the scheme collapsed.  It...

Will Trump Buckle Again on the JFK Records?

Will Trump Buckle Again on the JFK Records?

by | Nov 7, 2024 |

 fascinating situation has now developed between President-elect Donald Trump and the U.S. national-security establishment with respect to the long-secret JKF-assassination-related records that the CIA has succeeded in keeping secret for more than 60 years. Despite Trump’s campaign vow to release those records, it’s not at all clear how this matter is going to be resolved. I will give my prediction at the end of this article. There are three major factors at play: 1. During his 2024...

What If Voting Is Fruitless?

What If Voting Is Fruitless?

by | Nov 7, 2024 |

What if you were allowed to vote only because it didn’t make a difference? What if no matter how you voted, the elites always got their way? What if the concept of one person/one vote was just a fiction created by the government to induce your compliance? What if democracy as it has come to exist in America today is dangerous to personal freedom? What if our so-called democracy erodes the people’s understanding of natural rights and the reasons for government and instead turns political...

Post-Election Truths: The Things That Won’t Change (No Matter Who Wins)

Post-Election Truths: The Things That Won’t Change (No Matter Who Wins)

by | Nov 5, 2024 |

“If voting could ever really change anything, it’d be illegal.”— Thorne, Land of the Blind (2006) After months of handwringing and mud-slinging and fear-mongering, the votes have finally been cast and the outcome has been decided: the Deep State has won. Despite the billions spent to create the illusion of choice culminating in the reassurance ritual of voting for Donald Trump or Kamala Harris, when it comes to most of the big issues that keep us in bondage to authoritarian...

If ever a war could easily have been avoided, the war in Ukraine is that war. 

by | Nov 5, 2024 |

Address to the U.N. Security Council, Oct. 31, 2024 Thank you, Madam President, and thank you for giving me this opportunity to address this distinguished body. If ever a war could easily have been avoided, the war in Ukraine is that war. If ever a war was needlessly provoked, the war in Ukraine is that war. The war in Ukraine came about as a result of the Western powers’ single-minded insistence on scooping up every single country on the European continent into NATO, and on expanding the...

Pat Buchanan Was Right…And Young Conservatives Agree!

Pat Buchanan Was Right…And Young Conservatives Agree!

by | Nov 4, 2024 |

As we arrive at today's election, there is good news in the US conservative movement regardless of who wins. While the old guard - mostly "boomers" - who still cling to the levers of power continue to mouth the tired old shibboleths ("peace through strength," "rules based order," "our greatest ally"), a new generation of young conservatives has emerged that is revitalizing the Old Right view that the focus of conservatism should be to conserve what is actually great about the United States....

With JD Vance and Elon Musk, Suddenly Ideas Are Back in this Campaign

by | Nov 4, 2024 |

This presidential campaign season may be one of those turning points in history for reasons good and bad. Anyone watching the one debate between the Republican and Democratic Party candidates would not have come away with the view that this was a great battle of competing principles and visions for the future. It was a campaign of name-calling and bullets, where one candidate avoided discussing ideas at all costs – and even avoided the media at all costs. Where the other candidate dodged two...

Flashback: How Yeltsin Gleefully Drove Bill Clinton to Tears. Who’s Crying Now?

Flashback: How Yeltsin Gleefully Drove Bill Clinton to Tears. Who’s Crying Now?

by | Nov 2, 2024 |

Yeltsin grinned while Clinton cried. The Russian president had just blurted out his unfiltered reaction to American news reporting. It was October, 1995. Clinton and Yeltsin had just spoken at the United Nations 50th anniversary meeting. The next day the two presidents got together at Hyde Park, New York for a bilateral meeting followed by a press conference. It was then that Yeltsin told the media his take on his US visit. He said that when he came here that October he did not have the degree...

Dumpster Fire: White House Press Office Faced Internal Criticism Over the Rewriting of President Biden’s Garbage Comments

Dumpster Fire: White House Press Office Faced Internal Criticism Over the Rewriting of President Biden’s Garbage Comments

by | Nov 1, 2024 |

Since the “Let’s Go, Brandon” incident, the media has been repeatedly accused of reframing news or rewriting words to benefit the President or the Biden-Harris Administration. This week, the White House Press Office and various media outlets like Politico and MSNBC have been ridiculed for denying that President Joe Biden called Trump supporters “garbage.” It has created a weird dissonance as Democratic politicians denounced what the White House and many in the press denied was said....

Tweedledee and Tweedledum

Tweedledee and Tweedledum

by | Oct 31, 2024 |

My family and friends are angry with me because I won’t tell them for whom I plan to vote for president. I have not voted for the Republican or Democrat for president since 1984, when I happily voted for Ronald Reagan. Since those days, the Democrats have gravitated to principles of big government that would make FDR blush, and the Republicans have abandoned all principles. I will give the Democrats credit. They do not believe that the Constitution restrains the federal government. They say...

The Media Musk? Why the Cancel Campaign Targeting Jeff Bezos Could Backfire

The Media Musk? Why the Cancel Campaign Targeting Jeff Bezos Could Backfire

by | Oct 31, 2024 |

Below is my column on Fox.com on the expanding boycott of the Washington Post by Democratic politicians, pundits, and members of the press. The reason? Because owner Jeff Bezos wants to stay politically neutral and leave the matter to the public. In an age of advocacy journalism, the return to neutrality is intolerable. The reaction is itself revealing. In a heated meeting this week at the Post, writers were apoplectic with attacks on Bezos and alarm over the very notion of remaining...

Why is EU’s rotating presidency praising a country that flipped off the bloc?

Why is EU’s rotating presidency praising a country that flipped off the bloc?

by | Oct 31, 2024 |

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban took a break this week from annoying the EU establishment at home to annoy it abroad. “For so many years now, the people of Georgia have been striving and fighting for democracy,” unelected European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen proclaimed in the wake of the Georgian parliamentary elections. “They have a right to know what happened this weekend.” Well, since she apparently needs it spelled out, it would seem that 54% of...

Some Of Our Leaders Are Putting Other Countries First

Some Of Our Leaders Are Putting Other Countries First

by | Oct 30, 2024 |

Some of our leaders seem to care more about other countries, e.g., Ukraine and Israel, than they do about our own. Once again, Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has come to Washington, begging for even more money, this time some $8 billion dollars. The U.S. Congress has already approved $175 billion for Ukraine in the last 2½ years. Added to over $52 billion from the European Union and $43 billion from the World Bank (17.5% of which comes from U.S. taxpayers), Ukraine has had more money...

Russia Keeps Rolling Forward While Iran Contemplates Retaliation Against Israel

Russia Keeps Rolling Forward While Iran Contemplates Retaliation Against Israel

by | Oct 30, 2024 |

espite my hope that Iran would “take a win” in repelling most of the Israeli cruise missiles launched on Saturday against Iranian military targets, it appears that Iran will hit back in the near future. I base that conclusion on these two recent statements from Iranian senior officials. Brigadier General Mohammad Reza Naqdi, Deputy Coordinator of the IRGC: “In the coming days, you will witness another crushing blow to the Zionist regime.” Iranian foreign ministry spokesman Esmaeil...

Do they not understand how boring this nonsense is? How Russia, China and Iran Are Interfering in the Presidential Election (archived) - New York TimesEight years after Russia interfered in the 2016 presidential election, foreign influence with American voters has grown more sophisticated. That could have outsize consequences in the 2024 race. Written by three 'journalists' and published at the top of the NYT's homepage the intro reads: When Russia interfered in the 2016 U.S....
