We Must Break This Rule, Now

Just days ago I discussed the bizarre response to RFK Jr.’s remarks on the urgency of addressing the autism problem: people whose children’s autism involves quirkiness or social awkwardness pretended to be offended that anyone would think their children needed to be “cured.”

He wasn’t talking about your children, you attention-seeking weirdos.

Well, since that time I’ve gotten to know Sarah Kernion, mom of three children, two of whom have profound, non-speaking autism.

She says the “neurodiversi...

Trump Continues Obama’s War Against Russia in Ukraine, as Biden Did.

On Wednesday, April 30th, the AP headlined “US, Ukraine sign economic deal after Trump presses Kyiv to pay back US for help in repelling Russia”, and reported that, “The U.S. and Ukraine announced on Wednesday an economic agreement after a weekslong press by President Donald Trump on Ukraine to compensate Washington for billions in military and economic assistance to help Ukraine repel the Russian invasion.”

America will continue shipping U.S.-made weapons from firms such as Lockheed Ma...

Israel’s Backers Keep Whining That They’re Losing Control of the Narrative

Amnesty International is now calling Israel’s mass atrocity in Gaza “a live-streamed genocide” due to the way this nightmare is unfolding right in front of us on the screens of our devices around the world, and public support for Israel is plummeting in the United States.

Zionists are losing control of the narrative, and they know it. And they are not taking it well.

During a speech at a summit hosted by the Jewish News Syndicate earlier this week, former US senator Norm Coleman said t...

Paper Tigers

“Protect America from America’s President,” screams a New York Times headline. “His officers grab people off the streets,” rants a columnist whose name reminds me of the nice doctor who administers colonoscopies. (Mind you, colonoscopies can benefit one; left-wing buffoons like Times columnists do not benefit anyone.) It is obvious even to the simpleminded that criminals are grabbed at times off the streets. As are illegal migrant criminals that Biden and his gang all but invited i...

Home Invasions on the Rise: Constitution-Free Policing in Trump’s America

“One of the most essential branches of English liberty is the freedom of one’s house. A man’s house is his castle.”—James Otis, Revolutionary War activist, on the Writs of Assistance, 1761

What the Founders rebelled against—armed government agents invading homes without cause—we are now being told to accept in the so-called name of law and order.

Imagine it: it’s the middle of the night. Your neighborhood is asleep. Suddenly, your front door is splintered by battering rams. Shad...

Unsound Banking: Why Most of the World’s Banks Are Headed for Collapse

You’re likely thinking that a discussion of “sound banking” will be a bit boring. Well, banking should be boring. And we’re sure officials at central banks all over the world today—many of whom have trouble sleeping—wish it were.

This brief article will explain why the world’s banking system is unsound, and what differentiates a sound from an unsound bank. I suspect not one person in 1,000 actually understands the difference. As a result, the world’s economy is now based upon uns...

The Folly of Reciprocal Tariffs

“Whatever they tax us, we tax them.” ~ Donald Trump

On April 2—President Trump’s “Liberation Day”—he imposed, then changed, and then delayed, reciprocal tariffs on nearly all U.S. trading partners. Said Trump: “We’re going to charge countries for doing business in our country and taking our jobs, taking our wealth, taking a lot of things that they’ve been taking over the years.”

Nothing could be further from the truth.

Foreign firms don’t pay tariffs for the privilege of se...

The House of Representatives Won’t Stop Approving Government Expansions

The Republican-majority United States House of Representatives demonstrated this week, through votes on several relatively modest bills, that it will just keep demanding more US government spending and control. Republican representatives often claim to support limited government and frugality, but mostly they, and their Democratic Party colleagues, keep acting as government-loving spendthrifts.

In May of last year, I wrote about the House Republican leadership putting on the House floor for vo...

Assassinating JFK Led to the Vietnam War

With today, April 30, 2025, being the 50th anniversary of North Vietnam’s defeat of the United States in the Vietnam War, it is worth revisiting the role that the U.S. national-security establishment’s assassination of President Kennedy played in that war.

The story begins with the war between JFK and the U.S. national-security establishment that broke out after the Bay of Pigs disaster soon after Kennedy assumed the presidency. The CIA was hoping to manipulate Kennedy into providing air support...
