Our Public Health System Is Broken

An earlier version of this story was published by the author on his substack, here.

Let me begin this analysis by saying I’m not unbiased on this issue. As a friend of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for more than twenty years, and recently his authorized biographer [Real RFK Jr.: Trials of a Truth Warrior], I closely followed his presidential campaign – and the ongoing attacks against him by the corporate-owned media.

Bobby isn’t “anti-vaccine,” nor is he a “conspiracy theorist,” two labels repetitively ...

Trump Signs Executive Order to Fire Top Career Federal Managers More Quickly

Trump keeps doing the right things. The Reagan administration certainly could have used this ability to keep a Democrat civil service from sandbagging its policies.

The civil service, indeed, the entire cabinet level Justice Department and the FBI were completely politicized by the Biden Democrats.

US Rep. Gerry Connolly, Democrat from Virginia, is up in arms against Trump’s executive order.  But Connolly had no objections when the Democrats completely politicized the US Department of Justice (s...

The Age of Interplanetary Exceptionalism

Only the U.S. can rebrand a genocide into a great real estate opportunity in a “phenomenal location”.

Let’s start with the key take away: Manifest Destiny reaching the stars. Literally.

Trump 2.0 – the greatest show on earth – did start with a (big) bang: “We will pursue our Manifest Destiny into the stars.” And that means planting the American flag on Mars. The real thing. Not a Netflix flick. No wonder platinum sidekick Elon Musk, SpaceX CEO, achieved instant rapture.

Welcome to Interplanetary...

Zelenski, Having Failed, Blames His Sponsors

Simon Shuster is Time’s senior correspondent for Ukraine and Russia.

For writing laudatory pieces about (former) president Zelenski Shuster received extraordinary access to the Ukrainian’s president’s office. A later portrait by Shuster depicted Zelenski as delusional. In his latest piece he asserts that the Biden administration never intended for Ukraine to win:

When Russia invaded Ukraine nearly three years ago, President Joe Biden set three objectives for the U.S. response. Ukraine’s victory ...

Behind the Fight Against Hegseth and Gabbard: The Criminal Sequestration of Zero Point Energy and Alien Tech

Starting yesterday, scientists and military men from America’s black sites, both military and aerospace, are coming forward to claim knowledge and provide evidence of alien tech, alien bodies, anti-gravitics, zero-point energy — and medical tech that will change the face of medicine. Four of Trump’s initial executive orders to be tabled Monday, deal with disclosure of the above and more.

The revelations promise to upend every formalized religion, and supercharge the New Age. Dr. Steven Greer, wh...

Trump Knows Ukraine Conflict Means Nuclear WWIII, Gives Peace a Chance With Russia’s Putin

At least Trump is willing to give peace a chance with Russia over Ukraine, Peter Kuznick says.

The chances of a peace deal in Ukraine are suddenly a lot higher under President Donald Trump only because he has a realistic sense of a nuclear Third World War happening between the United States and Russia if that conflict is not ended promptly.

Peter Kuznick, an esteemed American professor of history, says that the Biden administration brought the world closer to a nuclear conflagration than at any...

Mastering the Art of Speculation and Today’s Top Opportunities

International Man: Let’s begin by defining our terms. How would you define a speculator?

Doug Casey: The word “speculator” is generally misused and poorly defined. Let’s put it in context, along with some related terms that it’s usually confused with.

First, what is a speculator? A speculator is someone who capitalizes on distortions in the market. These distortions are mostly caused by the actions of government, so most are political in nature. But distortions can also be caused by natural disa...

Eugene Robinson’s Gilded-Age Misconceptions

Longtime Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson’s new article about a “second Gilded Age” in America gets it wrong. He writes: “In the first Gilded Age, a few tycoons amassed unimaginable riches — men such as John D. Rockefeller, Cornelius Vanderbilt and J.P. Morgan. With their great wealth came great power and influence. When they spoke, presidents listened. On Monday, as a billionaire reassumes the nation’s highest office, in attendance will be the three wealthiest human beings on the plane...

Birthright Citizenship Isn’t Real

Donald Trump yesterday issued a new executive order declaring that so-called “birthright citizenship” does not apply to the children of foreign nationals residing illegally within the United States. The order reads, in part:

 (a) It is the policy of the United States that no department or agency of the United States government shall issue documents recognizing United States citizenship, or accept documents issued by State, local, or other governments or authorities purporting to recognize United...

Did Trump Just Drop Some Hints About His Peace Plan?

Trump’s known for his capriciousness, however, so it might be that he either didn’t mean to hint at anything at all in his latest remarks about Russia or he might unexpectedly change his mind about the compromises that he considers to be acceptable for each party during his upcoming call with Putin.

Trump said a few words about Russia shortly after his reinauguration while signing Executive Orders in the Oval Office. They’re important to interpret since they might hint at his peace plan, which h...
