‘That is Not the Judgment of the Press’: The White House Calls the Media to Heel With Disinformation Campaign

‘That is Not the Judgment of the Press’: The White House Calls the Media to Heel With Disinformation Campaign

by | Feb 10, 2024 |

“That is not the judgment of the press.” Those words from President Joe Biden were a telling moment after a reporter noted that there is widespread concern that he is mentally diminished. Biden’s cranky response was overshadowed by his confusion on other points during the press conference, including mixing up the presidents of Egypt and Mexico. However, it captured the sense of license and expectation of the Biden White House that the press is supposed to toe the line, as it has for three...

The real propagandists are those who dismiss Tucker Carlson’s Putin interview

The real propagandists are those who dismiss Tucker Carlson’s Putin interview

by | Feb 10, 2024 |

American establishment media spent the days in the run-up to Tucker Carlson’s interview with Russian President Vladimir Putin pre-judging it as propaganda, and soliciting the opinions of establishment figures, like former US secretary of state, first lady, and presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton, who dismissed Carlson a “useful idiot.”  All this before they even had the slightest notion of the interview’s content. All they knew was that Putin would have an...

The Greatest Trick Big Brother Ever Pulled

The Greatest Trick Big Brother Ever Pulled

by | Feb 9, 2024 |

"The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist” is a quote generally attributed to Charles Baudelaire – or possibly Keyser Söze depending on who you ask on the internet. Something similar can be said about Big Brother. When you think about what our emerging surveillance state will look like, you think 1984. You imagine East Germany powered by Google and Amazon. You recall your favorite dystopian sci-fi film – or maybe horror stories of China’s social...

Carlson Interview With Putin Could Topple Western Elites, End Ukraine War

Carlson Interview With Putin Could Topple Western Elites, End Ukraine War

by | Feb 8, 2024 |

In the seventies, when the cold war was at its peak, Donald Rumsfeld was convinced that the Atlantic Ocean, off the U.S. coast, was teaming with Russian submarines. The U.S. navy couldn’t detect them because, he was convinced, the Soviets had a new ‘acoustic technology’ which made them effectively invisible. Rumsfeld went ahead and ploughed billions of dollars into developing a new technology which could detect the non-acoustic subs. But that failed and is still costing the U.S. taxpayer...

Taking Free Speech Seriously

Taking Free Speech Seriously

by | Feb 8, 2024 |

Can the government prevent Big Tech from censoring political and cultural voices on their platforms? Can the government regulate these platforms to compel speech the government wants to hear and to prevent speech it believes may harm innocents? If you believe -- as I do -- in natural rights, minimal government and that owners of private property can use it as they see fit, the short answers to both questions is NO. These questions arise from a vicious Senate inquisition last week, during which...

2024 Is the New 1984: Big Brother and the Rise of the Security Industrial Complex

2024 Is the New 1984: Big Brother and the Rise of the Security Industrial Complex

by | Feb 7, 2024 |

2024 is the new 1984. Forty years past the time that George Orwell envisioned the stomping boot of Big Brother, the police state is about to pass off the baton to the surveillance state. Fueled by a melding of government and corporate power—the rise of the security industrial complex—this watershed moment sounds a death knell for our privacy rights. An unofficial fourth branch of government, the Surveillance State came into being without any electoral mandate or constitutional referendum, and...

US Sanctions Bring Russian Air Travelers Closer to Death

US Sanctions Bring Russian Air Travelers Closer to Death

by | Feb 7, 2024 |

US officials were undoubtedly disappointed over the recent emergency landing of a Russian civilian airliner on a farm in southern Russia. Experiencing a hydraulics problem that was causing the plane to rapidly lose fuel, the pilots were not able to make it to the nearest airport. So, why did this emergency landing undoubtedly disappoint US officials? Because the plane didn’t crash and kill the 165 Russian people aboard. That’s the whole point of sanctions — to impoverish or kill foreign...

Why Burn Books When You Can Bury Them? The White House Pressured Amazon to Target Dissenting Books

Why Burn Books When You Can Bury Them? The White House Pressured Amazon to Target Dissenting Books

by | Feb 7, 2024 |

The House Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government on Monday revealed yet another facet of the Biden Administration’s sprawling censorship system that targeted dissenting books. It appears that, as with social media companies, it succeeded in getting the company not to promote disfavored books. Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan revealed on X that the White House was directly involved in the censorship campaign. That includes a 2021 email...

The Three Strands to the ‘Swarming of Biden’

The Three Strands to the ‘Swarming of Biden’

by | Feb 6, 2024 |

“The Iranians have a strategy, and we don’t,” a former senior U.S. Defence Department official told Al-Monitor: “We’re getting bogged down in tactical weeds – of whom to target and how – and nobody’s thinking strategically.” The former Indian diplomat MK Bhadrakumar has coined the term “swarming” to describe this process of non-state actors miring the U.S. in the tactical attrition – from the Levant to the Persian Gulf. “Swarming” has been associated more recently with a...

In The Middle East The US Has Reached The End Of Its Abilities

by | Feb 6, 2024 |

The Biden administration is trying everything to better the situation for the Israeli government except by withdrawing its financial and munition support which are the only two measures that could bring Israel to its senses. There are now several small wars in the Middle East which may soon accumulate into a big one. Israel is fighting Hamas and the Islamic Jihad in Gaza. It is fighting a silent resistance in the West Bank. On its norther borders it is involved in daily clashes with Hizbullah...

Nuland leaves sense of foreboding in Kiev

Nuland leaves sense of foreboding in Kiev

by | Feb 5, 2024 |

The commencement of political upheavals in world affairs sometimes lies with a seemingly obscure event. This is not to say that the shooting down of a Russian Ilyushin-76 military transport plane carrying dozens of Ukrainian prisoners of war over the territory of Belgorod Region by two missiles fired from the area of Liptsy, in Kharkov Region (Ukraine) on January 24 is anything like the spark that set off World War I when a Serbian patriot shot and killed Archduke Franz Ferdinand in the city...

Dr. Fauci Helped Homeschooling Grow

Dr. Fauci Helped Homeschooling Grow

by | Feb 5, 2024 |

A rare instance of an unexpected consequence of a bad policy advancing liberty is the growth in private schools enrollment and homeschooling that occurred as a result of the covid lockdowns. An October 2023 study by Eloise Burtis and Sofoklis Goulas of the Brookings Institution found that 79 percent of American school-age children were enrolled in government schools in the 2021-2022 school year, down from 84 percent enrolled in government schools in 2019-2020. The decline in children attending...

Biden Says The US ‘Does Not Seek Conflict In The Middle East’ While Actively Dropping Bombs There

by | Feb 3, 2024 |

The Biden administration has begun its latest bombing campaign in the middle east, reportedly dropping over 125 munitions on more than 85 Iranian and Shia militia targets in Iraq and Syria on Friday.  The mainstream press have been falling all over themselves to describe the strikes as “retaliatory” in nature, framing it as a provoked response to a drone attack which killed three US troops at a base on the border of Jordan and Syria. Which is a bit odd, given that this...

The Tragic Self-Destruction of an Enraged Israel

The Tragic Self-Destruction of an Enraged Israel

by | Feb 2, 2024 |

Israel is boxed-in, as is becoming very evident to many Israelis. One Israeli correspondent (formerly a Cabinet Secretary) illustrates its nature: “The meaning of the 7th October default is not only the loss of lives … but mainly the potential transformation of how Israel is perceived … as no longer to be feared by Middle Eastern actors.”“The Israeli leadership must internalize that we can no longer be content with a “sense of victory” among the Israeli public … It is doubtful...

“The Framers ... conferred, as against the Government, the right to be let alone -- the most comprehensive of rights, and the right most valued by civilized men.” -- Justice Louis Brandeis (1856-1941) While we are all consumed with Joe Biden’s bumblings and Donald Trump’s trials, the federal government’s rapacious appetite for spying on the private behavior of Americans as to whom it has no suspicion of wrongdoing continues unabated. Last week, Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., revealed that the...
