The Pitfalls of Central Planning

If Central Planning can’t expand its power, it expands its budget, at the expense of its programs.

Central Planning has an ominous totalitarian undertone, but there is a place for it in the social toolbox. The federal Interstate highway system was central planning, and so is Social Security. Many view America’s patchwork electrical grid as not serving the national interest or its citizenry, and a dose of central planning to expand the grid’s resilience and capacity might be the best way forward....

To Understand The Globalists We Must Understand Their Psychopathic Religion

In the late 1800s and early 1900s the western world experienced a sudden burst of open occultism among the ultra-rich elites. The rise of “Theosophy” was underway, becoming a kind of fashion trend that would ultimately set the stage for what would later be called “new age” spiritualism. The primary driver of the theosophical movement was a small group of obscure academics led in part by a woman named H.P. Blavatsky. The group was obsessed with esoteric belief, Gnosticism and even Satanism.

Alexei Navalny’s Death and Curious Well-Timed Coincidences

There is propaganda by commission and propaganda by omission, the former often serve to conceal the latter. Timing is crucial.

That the U.S. President Joseph Biden, his British, NATO, Israeli allies, and their corporate media mouthpieces are in need of a major propaganda victory is obvious. They are losing the war in Ukraine, have been condemned throughout the world for the genocide in Gaza, and are ruling over a disintegrating empire. Biden and Netanyahu’s political lives are at serious risk. A...

Julian Assange’s Grand Inquisitor

LONDON — The prosecution for the U.S., which is seeking to deny Julian Assange’s appeal of an extradition order, begun by the Trump administration and embraced by the Biden administration, grounded its arguments on Wednesday in the dubious affidavits filed by a U.S. federal prosecutor in the Eastern District of Virginia, Gordon Kromberg.

The charges articulated by Kromberg — often false — to make the case for extradition did not fly with the two High Court judges, Jeremy Johnson and Dame Victori...

What We Are Witnessing in the Democrats’ Administration of Justice Is Totally Corrupt Weaponized Law Used As a Weapon

The Democrats appear to be the New Stalinist Party. My conclusion  is based on how they abuse law.  President Trump has suffered eight years of legal abuse from Democrats and their  corrupt prosecutors and judges.  

It began with Russiagate led by the CIA, Justice (sic) Department, and FBI.  It was a total orchestration long since disproved. Then there were a series of concocted nonsense allegations–strippergate, documents gate, insurrection gate and two concocted and failed impeachment attempts...

Google AI Erases Reality

From the Tom Woods Letter:

You may have seen images yesterday generated by Google’s Gemini AI in which white people were resolutely unrepresented.

“What does a Catholic pope look like,” for example, generated African results.

To be sure, African cardinals like Robert Sarah and the deceased Hyacinthe Thiandoum would have been much better than any pope since 1958, but since they were never elected, the AI response is, well, weird.

Similar responses kept being generated all day, to the point that G...

Trampling on a Symbol of Liberty

Last August, 12-year-old Jaiden Rodriguez was kicked out of a public-school classroom in Colorado Springs after school officials decreed that the Gadsden flag patch on his backpack was “disruptive to the classroom environment.” Those Colorado officials didn’t know the meaning of “disruptive.”

Thanks to savvy, thoughtful retorts by Jaiden’s mother in a video showdown at the school, the incident spurred a fierce backlash around America. Less than a week later, the school district raised the white ...

Politics Has Become Pro Wrestling– Literally

The Bible says Cain killed his brother Abel and then founded the first city. Today, WWE Hall of Fame wrestler Kane never killed his in-ring partner and half-brother the Undertaker—you cannot kill the dead—but he did go on to establish model leadership in Knox County, Tennessee. I recently spoke with Knox’s Mayor Glenn Jacobs—the retired Kane—to see how he has navigated his transition from wrestling to politics and his fight for liberty at the local level. What I saw in him is not only a rising s...

The chronic Middle East crisis goes back – as do many crises – to World War I. The British, in return for mobilizing the Arab peoples against their oppressors of imperial Turkey, promised the Arabs their independence when the war was over. But, at the same time, the Briti...
