Pastors And Physicians: From Protectors To Predators

With the CDC poised to add the covid shot to the schedule of childhood immunizations, today is a good opportunity to reflect on how those who once garnered the most trust in our society have become some of the worst among us. How to move forward when that trust is gone? Also today, it's Christmas every day for defense contractors, as Congress rushes to shovel massive amounts of money to "defeat Russia" in Ukraine.

GOP Leader: Ukraine Gravy Train To End If Republicans Re-Take House

As several major polls show Americans are shifting dramatically away from supporting Ukraine, GOP House Leader Kevin McCarthy has said that shoveling yet more money to Kiev will not be automatic should control of the House shift after the November elections. This as many Republican up-and-coming candidates are running explicitly on shutting down the money spigot to Europe's most corrupt country. Also today: why are so many retired senior US military officers bathing in Saudi cash? Finally: US Se...

Safe Cars, Dangerous Roads

By Walter E. Block
 
I just bought a new 2023 Toyota Camry. I’m still trying to figure out how to get some music on Bluetooth (I’m accustomed to use disks in my old car, but there’s no such availability in new automobiles), but the safety features are really something worth writing home about.
 
Seat belt wise, this vehicle is a real nanny. It won’t shut up until I buckle up; in contrast, my fifteen-year old ex-car would stop ringing after a minute or two. Other oldies but goodies include airbags, a...

CDC To Vote Thursday To REQUIRE Covid Shots For Kids

Even as uptake for the new Covid shots hovers around zero, the CDC is not giving up. For an announced Thursday meeting of the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), one CDC official announced a vote on adding the shot to the child immunization schedule - a backdoor mandate!

Woke War III - The Deadly Neocon-Left Alliance

Venture capitalist David Sacks has a fascinating piece in Newsweek breaking down how an alliance between the "woke" cancel culture of Twitter and the neocons is careening us toward a totally unnecessary nuclear conflict with Russia.

Destroy the Economy, Win a Nobel Prize

By Ron Paul

Former Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke is a 2022 recipient of the Nobel Prize in economics for his writings on how government should respond to bank failures. Honoring Bernanke for his advice on what government should do when banks fail is like giving a fire safety award to an arsonist.

Bernanke was Fed chairman when the housing bubble, created by his predecessor Alan Greenspan in the wake of the bursting of Greenspan’s tech bubble and the 9-11 attacks, exploded. When the housing...

Crack-Up Boom? Has The Fed Lost Control Of Inflation?

Markets always have the final say. They ultimately overrule the incessant schemes of politicians and central bankers. There are no man-made "policies" that have the capability of revoking economic laws. There are no shortcuts, loopholes, or free lunches. "Narratives" get squashed by the truth. Free Markets and Sound Money are the truth. We'd be wise to return to both of them. Watch Here

Did Biden Offer Saudis An Oil 'Quid Pro Quo' To Boost Dem Election Prospects?

The announced two million barrel cut per day from OPEC+ was a heavy body blow to President Biden and the Democrats as they face what may be very rocky mid-term elections. Did Biden pressure the Saudis to hold off on the cuts until after the elections? Also today, a CPI nuke was dropped on the US economy. Finally, how democratic is Germany?

Pfizer Shock Admission: Covid Shot Never Tested For Stopping Transmission

A Dutch Member of the European Parliament appeared to score a bombshell admission when he asked a representative of Pfizer whether their Covid "vaccine" was ever tested to see if it stopped transmission - the whole rationale behind vax mandates and passports. Pfizer representative said, "no." Also today, the Moderna shot actually has a NEGATIVE effectiveness after a few months.

'See Ya!!' Tulsi Dumps 'Woke, Warmongering' Democratic Party

Tulsi has left the chat. In a dramatic announcement this morning, former US Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI) announced she was leaving the Democrat Party which she said "stands for a government of, by, and for the powerful elite." What's next for Tulsi and how will it shake up US politics? Also today, Russia's missile barrage continues as NATO chief Stoltenberg claims a win for Russia is a loss for...NATO!
