Throw Society Into Chaos’ – Tucker Outlines Dem Plan as Harris ‘Honeymoon’ Fades

Tucker Carlson said the quiet part out loud in a brief comment last last week. Uncomfortable truths about the “party of democracy”…

“If they think that there’s a chance that Trump could win decisively enough in November that they can’t steal it, then I think their only option there is to in some way throw the society into chaos as they did during COVID which was the pretext for changing the way we vote and letting people vote anonymously without IDs and drop boxes and a month before the election...

A Visit to the Hair Salon

While the world prepares to implode (or explode, depending on your take) there’s a little corner of the wild where women of all stripes continue a time-honored tradition. America’s women—her childless cat ladies, aging soccer moms, glam girls, and graying socialites—gather faithfully at local salons to get their tresses just right.

Blondes have more fun, it is said, and as a fake blonde, I can confirm this is true. I hit the the salon regularly, and for a certified people-watcher like myself, it...

Everything That Dazzles

Many folks are under the false impression that the US Constitution grants the federal gummint and/or Federal Reserve Bank [sic] the exclusive right to coin and issue money. Article I, Section 8 of the US Constitution says, “The Congress shall have Power […] To coin Money, regulate the Value thereof, and of foreign Coin, and fix the Standard of Weights and Measures.” There is no exclusive right to coin money, only to set the exchange rate between the States, and determine weights and measures, an...

We Need a New System, Not a New President

Unfortunately, the presidential race is devoid of any discussion of what is actually the most important issue facing the American people: whether to continue the political and economic systems under which we have all been born and raised — that is, the welfare state, the national-security state, and the regulated/managed economy — or to replace this way of life with a system based on the principles of economic liberty, voluntary charity, and a limited-government republic.

The assumption is that ...

Bishop Chaput Resists Francis Again and Vatican Changes the Translation

Last week we discussed the significant linguistic issue in the Vatican translation of the Pope’s Italian statement “Tutte le religioni sono un cammino per arrivare a Dio” which the live translator translated as “every religion is way to arrive at God.”

In English, this phrase is heresy, pure and simple.

The word “way” in English means a “possibility whereby” and “arrive” in English means to achieve a destination. This phrase in English means that idolatry is a way to God.

In other words, the 1st...

What Happens When a Hospital Vaccine Injures You?

After finishing the first part of the DMSO series (which explains how millions of permanent disabilities and deaths from strokes, traumatic brain injuries and spinal cord injuries could have been prevented if the FDA hadn’t blacklisted DMSO), I decided to take a technology break. However, as I was drifting to bed last night, a lot of people began contacting me about a disaster that was unfolding in California.

What I find astounding about this case is that within minutes of looking into the limi...

Rising Threat to Free Speech

International Man: Recently, we’ve seen an escalating global crackdown on speech in the (formerly) free societies of Europe and North America.

For example, in the UK recently, the government has been imprisoning individuals for social media posts under the guise of curbing “hate speech.”

What’s your take on this growing trend in general and events in the UK in particular?

Doug Casey: A few instances have been reported about how Keir Starmer, the new prime minister of Britain, has imprisoned citi...

In the Face of Escalating Migrant Crime and Dimming Electoral Prospects

It feels so, so good to be back. And, as usually happens upon returning from a brief internet break, there is no end of things to write about.

The main thing is the second assassination attempt against Donald Trump, just nine weeks after the first. A very strange man named Ryan Wesley Routh allegedly hid in the bushes with a rifle while the forty-fifth President was playing golf in West Palm Beach yesterday afternoon. He got off several shots before the Secret Service returned fire. He later fle...

The Second Assassination Attempt on Trump: Profile of a Neocon Terrorist

On Sunday, September 15, a casual afternoon round of golf turned into a chaotic scene, when  a man was spotted with a rifle near where former president Donald Trump was golfing.

Authorities now believe the suspect, Ryan Wesley Routh, was planning to assassinate Trump –  just over two months after another assassination attempt on the former president, in Pennsylvania.

Routh’s numerous online statements are at times indecipherable; at others, he sounds like a virulent Washington D.C. neocon – a ma...

Bergoglio Saying ‘All Religions Are a Path to God’ Is Apostasy

Editor’s note: The following statement has been taken from an X post by Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò originally published on September 13, 2024.

“I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” (John 14:6)

Bergoglio, with his ungodly statements addressed to young people in Singapore that “all religions are a path to God,” offends the Majesty of God, betrays Divine Revelation, tramples on the principal Mysteries of our Faith and nullifies the redeeming Sacrif...
