Head of JFK assassination files task force: ‘I believe there were two shooters’

Historic turning point?
Writes David Martin:
Could be, but with advisers like Keith Kellogg and Michael Waltz, Trump could still mess things up. And there’s still the big danger that he could still bring the world to disaster overplaying a weak hand in the Middle East.

An Over-reaching Judiciary Needs a Reprimand
If Trump plays by the corrupt judiciary’s rulings and allows judicial edicts to override executive orders, he and his movement are finished.
One can say that the absurd judicial edicts will be overturned by higher courts, but, as Trump says, stopping the President from acting gives the corrupt Democrats, who have been stealing the American taxpayers blind for years, time to cover up, to “lose” data, “mistakenly” erase it, etc. Moreover, trust in higher courts overlooks that the judiciary is no...
Help! The Establishment’s Fallen and Can’t Get Up!
The Senate’s confirmation hearings for President Trump’s political appointees have been gladiatorial spectacles. Tulsi Gabbard; Kash Patel; and Robert F.

AI luminary Alan Turing suggested that natural language conversation was the one true test, a.k.a. The Turing Test: if a human couldn’t distinguish between a human and a computer in conversation, the c...
12 Facts About the Deindustrialization of America That Will Blow Your Mind
The United States is rapidly becoming a “post-industrial” nation. All great economic empires eventually become fat and lazy and squander the great wealth that their forefathers left them, but the pace at which America is doing this is absolutely breathtaking. Nobody can deny that our economy is a complete and utter mess right now, and we only have ourselves to blame. It was America that was at the forefront of the industrial revolution. It was America that showed the world how to mass produc...
Abolish US Citizenship
Except for a small number of diplomatic passports, there is no such thing as an EU passport. In practice, to be a citizen of the European Union means to be a citizen of one of the member states of the EU. It is the EU member states themselves which ultimately determine who is a citizen of the EU. As The Economist put it, “Deciding who is and is not a citizen is a jealously guarded right of EU member states.”
The most rabid Europhiles, of course, would be more than happy to abolish member-level c...
