The Great Dangers of Statins

The more I study science, and particularly medicine, the more I come to see how often fundamental facts end up being changed so that a profitable industry can be created. Recently I showed how this happened with blood pressure, as rather than causing arterial damage, high blood pressure is a response to arterial damage that ensures damaged arteries can still bring blood to the tissues and, in turn, rather than helping patients, aggressively lowering blood pressure can be quite harmful. In this a...

Oct 7 2023 – Netanyahoo Knew The Attack Was Coming – He Let It Happen on Purpose

The prime minister of the Zionist entity, Benjamin Netanyahoo, is under fire. New criminal allegations have been raised against him.

People in Netanyaho’s office had ‘leaked’ secret reports obtained by the Israeli military intelligence from some low level Hamas leader. Before leaking the documents, which included proposals for future actions, the leakers manipulated them.

The manipulated documents appeared as ‘news’ on foreign websites which allowed the censored Israeli media to repeat their con...

Exempt the Amish

It was a humbling experience getting to know some of the Amish voters who helped propel President-elect Donald Trump’s historic comeback victory. In a way, it was like feeling my mind and my heart grow larger inside me through no virtue of my own. I’ll never forget the gratitude I feel toward them; and I believe the Republican Party—and the whole nation—should never forget either.

On the surface, we have nothing in common. I come from a long line of soldiers. My grandfather was an infantryman in...

Remember Peanut: a Treatise on Evil and Why the State Killing of a Squirrel Matters So Much

What is evil? For the average person it’s a difficult concept to explain but most of us know it when we see it. Every once in a while there’s an event which strikes the collective consciousness in such a way that it becomes deeply symbolic. Sometimes these events symbolize ultimate good, and sometimes they symbolize ultimate evil. The public is affected by these things in ways they didn’t expect and might not even comprehend, but they are archetypal and profound nonetheless.

In the wake of Donal...

Realistically, What Are Trump’s Chances To Make American Great Again?

No, MAGA Americans, I am not a party pooper. I am a realist.

No, I am not trying to make Trump look bad. I was Trump’s defender against all the false accusations and indictments. I insisted that we had to stand up for Trump and elect him or never again would a presidential candidate take the side of the people against the Establishment.

I warned over and over that Trump does not know Washington, and he has again proven me correct with his appointments of a war cabinet of Washington insiders, wit...

When the Show Is Over, the Actors Hold Hands and Take a Bow

President Biden and President Elect Trump met at the White House on Wednesday and shook hands and exchanged pleasantries after an emotionally exhausting presidential race in which each side accused the other of presenting an immediate existential threat to the country.

This is it. This is the real story. This image, right here.

Ignore all the fake drama. Forget all the campaign rhetoric and kayfabe conflict. This is what’s real. This is what deserves your attention.

They do not hate each other. ...

The Plan for Uncle Sam

This will fall on deaf ears in the White House, no matter who the new resident will be next year, but here goes anyway: Chinese and Russian analysts are taking note of the United States’ inability to curb Israel or contain the conflict in the Middle East. This of course emboldens President Xi of China to move against Taiwan and deepens President Putin’s resolve as far as Ukraine is concerned.

Now that Israel’s Netanyahu has ramped up the conflict with Hezbollah and Iran, while continuing to flat...

The Kosher President

Donald Trump is now America’s President-Elect. As I said previously, I fully expected that Trump would win by a comfortable electoral margin and that it would be a clean sweep for the GOP.

As a result of the big Republican win, most evangelicals and conservatives are predictably acting like the Millennium has arrived. Despite everything that has transpired since the dawn of this century, despite the Tea Party movement during the Ron Paul years, despite the ubiquitous bumper stickers pasted to th...

Department of Education & the GAO; Audits & Incompetence

The Liberal left are miserable given Trump’s statement regarding his desire to eliminate the Department of Education;  children will have no schools – there will be no money for special needs – our education system will collapse…   It already did.

The Department of Education:  Their last audit for September 2023 financial statements was a disclaimer –  “KPMG has not been able to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion because of unresolved errors KPMG...

Tulsi and the Establishment Meltdown

From the Tom Woods Letter:

Over on Twitter/X I’ve made my opinions clear on several egregiously bad Trump appointments, all in foreign policy — it looks like Miriam Adelson got her wish list.

If you’re not following me there, that’s easy to fix by clicking here: @ThomasEWoods

Since I’ve written about all that over there, let me say a quick something about Tulsi Gabbard as Director of National Intelligence and Matt Gaetz as Attorney General.

Tulsi is said to be “unqualified” because she doesn’t c...
