France Wants To Fight Russia in Ukraine

The little French rascal is leaning over his skis a bit:

Sending Western troops to Ukraine “cannot be ruled out,” French President Emmanuel Macron said Monday after hosting a conference in Paris where European leaders discussed the prospect.

There was “no agreement this evening to officially send troops onto the ground but we cannot exclude anything,” he told reporters.
…
“We will do anything we can to prevent Russia from winning this war,” Macron said. “And I say this with determination, but al...

A Tale of Two Farms

On one and the same day, I received e-mails directing my attention to two stories about life in rural America—one in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania and one in Chenango County, New York—the latter being located 200 miles north of the former.

In Lancaster County, an Amish farmer named Amos Miller has attracted a huge amount of law enforcement heat for selling raw milk. The following photo conveys some idea of what happens in Pennsylvania when a farmer sells a product that nourished mankind without...

Trump’s Justice

In 1868, British Prime Minister William Gladstone famously said, “Justice delayed is justice denied.” The phrase has often been repeated here in the United States, most famously by the Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr., who echoed it in his 1963 “Letter from a Birmingham Jail”: “Justice too long delayed is justice denied.”

Sadly enough, justice delayed (and possibly denied) is once again front and center in America as we face the specter of Donald Trump and his insistence on eternally evading the...

The Threat to Currencies from Banking Failures

This article points out the dangers to the value of credit from a rickety global banking system. This will almost certainly become the primary driver in the gold to credit relationship, replacing the so far relatively benign downwards long-term drift in currency purchasing powers. In other words, it is increasing awareness of systemic risk and debt traps that will drive the relationship, not false theories about interest rate differentials.

The entire western banking system is close to collapse

I Wrote What? Google’s AI-Powered Libel Machine

Last night, after seeing chatter about Google/Alphabet’s much-ballyhooed new AI tool, Gemini, I checked for myself. Any product rollout disastrous enough to cause a one-day share drop of 4.4% for a firm with a $1.73 trillion market capitalization must be quite a spectacle, I thought. Matt Walsh’s recap was worth it just for the look on his face.

Chuckling to start, by the end of the night I wasn’t laughing, unprepared as I was for certain horrifying if lesser-publicized quirks of “the Gemini er...

Covid-Like Diseases as Connective Tissue Disorder, Not Virus: Dr. Jennifer Daniels, MD

“I’m not a theory lady.  Who is it you think knows or cares about COVID?” – Dr. Jennifer Daniels, MD, author The Lethal Dose: Why Your Doctor is Prescribing It

“Symptoms of Connective Tissue Disorders (CTD) can vary depending on the affected areas. The most serious symptoms are related to inflammation around the lungs. These symptoms involving the lungs may include: difficulty breathing, shortness of breath, breathlessness, fatigue, a cough with bloody phlegm, chest discomfort, respiratory failu...

‘Letter from CPAC’

Journey into A New Kind of Dissidence

Forgive my recent silence. I’ve been occupied with the presentation by Maine State Representative Heidi Sampson of our Clean Elections Bill to the Legislative Council. This took place last Thursday, and it would have been the first step in the journey of the bill from draft bill to law in that state, had the Council voted to endorse it. Instead, after a spirited presentation of the bill by Rep Sampson, the Council voted, incredibly enough, not to endorse it;...

Joe Biden Should Be Charged With Treason For Refusing To Secure America’s Borders

Almost everyone—including Democrats—knows that Joe Biden and his family are guilty of several acts of criminality, any one of which are impeachable offenses. One thing you can know about criminals: They stick together.

Therefore, it is little wonder why America’s criminal-in-chief would have no problem using his immense authority as president to facilitate and even pay Jewish criminal cabals to directly escort illegal aliens—many of them hardened criminals themselves—into the United States.

Me and Mr. Jones

The late ’60s and early ’70s were great years for yours truly. Sporting successes in tennis and karate, a great president in the White House, and some good reporting from Hue for National Review’s William Buckley had given me a career boost. That’s when Bill, a very good friend, decided Paris would be a safer place for an eager young Taki to make his name. There was another reason Bill picked the City of Light as my base. A young Austrian princess, Alexandra Schoenburg, and I were tripping the l...
