Unmasking The Great Blood Pressure Scam

Ever since I first encountered the medical field, something struck me as off about their relentless focus on blood pressure. Before long, I began to notice that the blood pressures the same acquaintances (e.g., relatives or friends) shared with me varied immensely. As I was pondering this, a long-time spiritual teacher shared with me their belief that the relentless focus on blood pressure was due to it being much easier to measure than blood perfusion (healthy blood flow).

Then, as I became mor...

Donald Trump Still Does Not Understand the Russia’s Position Regarding Ukraine

I continue to believe that it is more important to watch what Donald Trump does rather than focus on what he says. However, his remarks during the meeting of his cabinet earlier this week regarding negotiations to end the war in Ukraine are alarming and merit attention. When asked about Sergei Lavrov’s comment that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is not legitimate, Donald Trump dismissed the statement, saying:

It doesn’t matter what they say. Everybody’s posturing. It’s all bullshit, oka...

Dance Floors and Coronamania

My wife, Ellen, and I have danced in many places: in Newark’s Rutgers’ Student Center and law school basement parties and the chic, but short-lived, Club America; also at New York City’s early-80s Danceteria, mid-80s Lincoln Center outdoor Summer Swing and the Nightingale dive bar on the Lower East Side. On our honeymoon, we got down—literally—in a very dark, subterranean Costa Rican concept disco called El Tunel Del Tiempo (The Time Tunnel). Two years later, we danced under moonlight and palm t...

Grayzone Event for Peace

“We are headed into darker times. War could return to Iran at any moment.” – Max Blumenthal, founder of The Grayzone news site

“We are in extremely dangerous times. You need to know the truth but you act on it at your own peril.” – Judge Andrew Napolitano, host of the podcast “Judging Freedom”

Both of these dire predictions were made at an event called Icarus Fest sponsored by The Grayzone and featuring its courageous journalists. Nonetheless, there was hope in the 150 or so dissident voices uni...

Exposing the Fraud of Black Athletic ‘Superiority’

I’m deep into writing my latest book. It will be even more controversial than the ten that came before it, if such a thing is possible. I am going after a true sacred cow. It will be fully sourced and documented, and the points will be irrefutable. Numbers don’t lie quite this often. I expect to be called lots of predictable names.

This picture shows the great Tom Brady with three of his New England Patriots’ White wide receivers. That was almost as many as the rest of the league had combined. T...

Our Future in Space

Elon Musk has stated that he wants to make human beings a “multiplanetary species” by establishing a self-sustaining human colony on the planet Mars. While this is a sensible and laudable goal for the immediate future, in the long run there are much better places to establish human colonies in the Solar System. The best way to move humanity off Earth was outlined forty-nine years ago by visionary Gerard O’Neill in his book The High Frontier.

There are very significant challenges in constructing ...

Citizens of Switzerland Say No to the Electronic ID (e-ID)

On 7 March 2021, Swiss citizens voted already on the introduction of the electronic ID (e-ID) and rejected the government’s proposals by a landslide of 64.4% NO, against 35.6% YES.

This was just four years ago. And now the Swiss government puts the proposal again before the people. Not voluntarily. It was presented to both Swiss Parliamentary Houses and accepted, as is often the case, as the Swiss Parliament does not really represent the interests of the people, but the interests of business.

Th...

What’s Good About Democracy?

America is supposed to be a democracy, and people worry about whether elections are genuine or rigged. Should voting by mail be allowed? Should voters be required to show ID? In the current political climate, such questions are important, but there is an underlying premise that libertarians have good reason to question.

The premise is that America should be a democracy.  You might at first wonder “What is the alternative? Are you in favor of dictatorship?” The alternative I have in mind isn’t a ...

Speech, Speech!

Oh, to be in England, especially if you’re a Muslim, an African, or any minority. There’s freedom of speech in this here rainy place, the kind of free speech that gets you thrown in jail back home but not here. Britain is now the only place in the Western world where whites are careful what they say, shout, or put online. It’s called two-tier justice, with local whites judged harshly by woke white judges, and with heavy prison sentences doled out to those who dare insult illegal migrants who are...
