Would Orwell Be Branded a Terrorist? The Government’s War on Thought Crime

Would Orwell Be Branded a Terrorist? The Government’s War on Thought Crime

by | Sep 24, 2025 |

The Trump administration is taking its war on free speech into the realm of thought crimes. This is more than politics. In declaring “Antifa”—a loose ideology based on opposition to fascism—as a domestic terrorist organization, the government has given itself a green light to treat speech, belief, and association as criminal acts. With this one executive order, political dissent has been rebranded as terrorism and free thought recast as a crime. Critics will argue that “Antifa” means...

The Genie of ‘Israeli First’ Dominance is Out of the Bottle

“Gaza is on fire; the Jewish state will not relent,” Israeli Defence Minister Katz excitedly proclaims: “The IDF is striking with an Iron fist at terrorist infrastructure.” In fact, over recent weeks Israel has struck at “infrastructure” in West Bank, Iran, Syria, Lebanon, Yemen, and Tunisia – besides Gaza. The so-called “Rules-Based Order” blueprint (if it ever truly existed beyond narrative) has been ripped up in favour of violent Zionism: Genocide, sneak attacks under the guise of on-going...

More Turmoil from Washington

More Turmoil from Washington

by | Sep 23, 2025 |

It has been another exciting week in and around Washington. The murder of Charlie Kirk has produced speculation that has resulted in all the loonies and haters coming out from their various hidey-holes. This has inevitably included the chorus of knuckleheads that makes up the Donald Trump cabinet. Since Kirk’s death, Republican conservatives have called for a crackdown on the left, though it is by no means clear that any identifiable left-of-center group was in any way implicated in...

The Mystery of Trump, Ukraine, and Russia

The Mystery of Trump, Ukraine, and Russia

by | Sep 22, 2025 |

Hardly anyone in the mainstream press addresses the mystery of how Trump went from what was supposedly a secret agent of the Russians to an ardent opponent of Russia in the Ukraine-Russia war. My hunch is that the commentators in the mainstream press are so excited that Trump has turned pro-Ukraine that they don’t care that they were, not so long ago, accusing him of being a secret agent of Russia. After all, who can forget the daily refrain during Trump’s first term in office. “Robert Mueller...

The covid lockdowns caused many Americans to stop trusting the government’s propaganda and led to a 39 percent increase in homeschooling in the 2020-21 school year. While the number of homeschoolers did decline some after this jump, homeschooling has continued growing in popularity over the last several years. Today, approximately six percent of American school children are homeschooled. Parents choose to homeschool for a variety of reasons, including objections to certain political and social...

Why is Iran Willing to Make an Agreement with the IAEA?

Why is Iran Willing to Make an Agreement with the IAEA?

by | Sep 19, 2025 |

It looks like Donald Trump, with his European lackeys in tow, is telling Egypt to screw off. After painstaking negotiations, Egypt brokered an agreement between Iran and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), which is now known as the Cairo Agreement. This is a technical accord reached on September 9, 2025, in Cairo between Iran and the IAEA, which allows the IAEA to inspect Iranian nuclear facilities. Here are the main provisions of the Cairo Agreement: Resumption of...

Texas Governor Greg Abbott Expands His Rampage Against Free Speech on College Campuses, Using the Murder of Charlie Kirk as an Excuse

Texas Governor Greg Abbott Expands His Rampage Against Free Speech on College Campuses, Using the Murder of Charlie Kirk as an Excuse

by | Sep 19, 2025 |

Charlie Kirk became well known and helped build his organization Turning Point USA by coming on to college campuses to present views that some students and, often, the people running the colleges did not want aired. In doing so, he helped advance the exercise of free speech at colleges. It was at one of his campus events at which he was discussing and debating issues that Kirk was murdered last week. If Texas Governor Greg Abbott wanted to honor Kirk, an appropriate action may be to find ways...

Political Gaslighting: The Government’s Latest Playbook for Dismantling the Constitution

Political Gaslighting: The Government’s Latest Playbook for Dismantling the Constitution

by | Sep 18, 2025 |

What we are witnessing is not a government of the people, by the people, and for the people; it is a government over the people. Call it what it is: political gaslighting—the regime says one thing while doing the opposite, and insists on the citizenry’s trust while dismantling the very checks and balances that make trust possible. So when the powers-that-be claim to be protecting the Constitution, they’re dismantling it at every turn. In this way,...

Constitution Day and Tucker’s Rule

Constitution Day and Tucker’s Rule

by | Sep 18, 2025 |

Sept. 17 is Constitution Day, a time for government-mandated veneration of the U.S. Constitution. Educational institutions receiving federal funds must hold a program for students about our frame of government. According to Nicholas Kent, an undersecretary at the Department of Education, “Constitution Day presents an annual opportunity to promote civic awareness and understanding about the Constitution among your students and the broader school or campus community.” Although it is probably not...

The Curious Case Of George Zinn

With Tyler Robinson in custody facing the death penalty for the murder of Charlie Kirk, authorities have turned their focus to pursuing others involved in a larger criminal conspiracy behind the assassination. Although FBI Director Kash Patel has insinuated that transgender militant groups were integral to the lethal plot, any potential accomplices of Robinson's still remain at large, if extant at all. The lone figure who faces any criminal charges related to Kirk's assassination is Utah...

Maintaining escalatory dominance: Trump and the predominant sway of ‘Israel Firsters’

Maintaining escalatory dominance: Trump and the predominant sway of ‘Israel Firsters’

by | Sep 17, 2025 |

The strike on the Hamas negotiating team assembled in Doha to discuss the “Witkoff Gaza proposal” is not just another “IDF operation” to be passed over silently (as with the de-capitation of almost the entire civilian cabinet in Yemen). It marks rather, the end to an entire era – and “a new reality” for Qatar. It’s a landmark event. For decades, Qatar has played a very profitable game – supporting the radical An-Nusra jihadists in Syria as a lever against Iran, while maintaining American...

Global Wealth and Power are Pivoting to the East

Global Wealth and Power are Pivoting to the East

by | Sep 17, 2025 |

History’s wheel is turning. China builds, India rises, BRICS surpasses the G7—while America punishes allies and empowers its Enemies. In the West, the year 1492 is remembered for two episodes: Columbus’s arrival in the Americas and the fall of Granada, last stronghold of Moorish Spain. But its larger consequence was geopolitical: the compass needle swung westward, ushering in a centuries long reversal in global fortunes. Wealth that once streamed toward Asia turned into rivers feeding Europe’s...

Who Killed Charlie Kirk?

by | Sep 16, 2025 |

I had the pleasure of appearing on Charlie Kirk’s program a few times over the years and I always found him to be polite, respectful, and genuinely interested in ideas. Even in areas where we might not have agreed, he listened carefully. He was a strong advocate of free speech and he made a career of trying to convince the youth of the value of free speech and dialogue regardless of political differences. At the young age of 31 years old, he had already founded and ran the largest conservative...

Billionaire Bill Ackman convened stormy Israel ‘intervention’ with Charlie Kirk, sources say

by | Sep 16, 2025 |

On September 11, one day after the assassination of Charlie Kirk, billionaire pro-Israel moneyman Bill Ackman took to Twitter/X to trumpet his relationship with the late conservative operative. “I feel incredibly privileged to have spent a day and shared a meal with @charliekirk11 this summer. He was a giant of a man.” The Grayzone has spoken to five people with intimate knowledge of Kirk’s meeting with Ackman, which was held in early August. According to one source, Kirk was left...

Why Shouldn’t Trump Be Convicted and Impeached for Murder?

Why Shouldn’t Trump Be Convicted and Impeached for Murder?

by | Sep 16, 2025 |

The U.S. Code provides that a murder of a foreigner by an American citizen on the high seas is a federal criminal offense. The pertinent sections are 18 U.S.C. Section 1111 (Murder) and 18 U.S.C. Section 7 (Special Maritime and Territorial Jurisdiction of the United States). The U.S. Constitution provides that the president shall be removed from office on impeachment and conviction of “high crimes.” It goes without saying that murder is a “high crime.” So, the question arises: Why shouldn’t...
