Daniel Falcone: Could you give the context of the framework that brought us to Amnesty International’s findings regarding Israel and Palestine? What has changed regarding the organization to make this happen?

In his farewell address, George Washington said, “It is our true policy to steer clear of permanent alliances with any portion of the foreign world.” What an offensive notion to Pentagon generals, weapon industry execs, DC think tankers and State Department bureaucrats, who, rather than avoiding permanent alliances, have been relentless in their quest to pile […]

The military bloc isn’t always concerned about protecting its own, the Russian president has said. NATO has a history of aggression, Russian President Vladimir Putin said.

In a stunning and unexpected outburst this week, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that his country’s current problems came from the west rather than the east.

Truth always wins at the end. Despite all of Justin Trudeau’s lies, smears and dirty tricks, he’s losing the battle of public opinion. The Canadian people have had enough.

The last couple of years have not been pleasant, and so nobody wants to hear that more trouble is ahead for the U.S. economy.  Unfortunately, that is precisely what the mainstream media is telling us right now.  A year ago, so many of the talking heads on television were assuring us that a new golden […]

Robert BRIDGE While the Western media hyperventilates over its own phony news of ‘Russian aggression’ and imminent invasions, the Kremlin has quietly turned its sights on an altogether different target: pedophilia.

Welcome to the era of civil asset forfeiture for your bank accounts. Where governments are woke, broke, and the new f-word is Freedom.

In the western world’s mad rush to ramp up censorship and dangerous cold war escalations against Russia over its invasion of Ukraine, the Australian government has done what it always does and raised the bar of authoritarianism a click above everyone else in the room. “The Australian Government is sanctioning 10 people of strategic interest to Russia […]

It is over. Putin has won. Victoria Nuland, the neoconservative warmonger appointed Undersecretary of State by the White House fool, announced Washington’s surrender when she called on China to use its influence with Russia to save Ukraine from invasion.

Well that was a night and a day… As Goldman’s Chris Hussey summarized today, “the Russia-Ukraine conflict transitioned from a ‘known unknown’ to a ‘known known’ today, in the parlance of Wall Street, and markets may be showing some signs of embracing a bit of the diminishing ‘uncertainty’.” The most devastating package of sanctions ever […]

The German government has recently refused overflight rights to the Royal Air Force who were sending planes to Ukraine loaded with weapons.

More revealing hypocrisy from Dementia Joe Biden. Just a few days ago one of  Biden’s idiot National Security team was preaching about the sanctity of international borders? “Why should Americans care about what’s happening in Ukraine?” CNN anchor John Berman asked Jonathan Finer, a National Security Adviser. “Because it goes to a very fundamental principle […]

They’re truly changing the world in pursuit of their shared vision of making it more equitable, just, and multipolar, but neither is going to go to war for the other….Precisely because they’re ‘more than allies’, they can responsibly agree to disagree on certain key issues like Kashmir and the South China Sea while still continuing […]

Another day in our strange times: the CDC has finally found a kind word to say about natural immunity. You have to dig for it but it is there: “By early October, persons who survived a previous infection had lower case rates than persons who were vaccinated alone.” It’s not even slightly surprising or should not be, […]

What do we believe?  Whom can we believe and why? Is trust gratuitous or earned?  Experience and “common sense” (that ever-so-rare attribute) may help us address these questions.  But wait … how reliable are our evaluation tools?  Even our rules of logic and rationality will fail us when the information supplied is false, incomplete or skewed. Over […]

“…the comforts of life increase every day… and yet the truth is still far off, and man still remains the most predatory…of animals, and the tendency in the majority of mankind is towards degeneration and the permanent loss of vitality.  In such conditions an artist’s life has no meaning, and the more talented he is, […]

‘Encirclement’ and ‘containment’ effectively have become Biden’s default foreign policy, Alastair Crooke writes. The key to China’s security riposte to the U.S. is linked to two words that go unstated in U.S. formal policy documents, but whose silent presence nevertheless suffuses and colour-washes the text of the 2022 National Defence Authorisation Act. The term ‘containment’ […]

Ukraine, facing a possible invasion by Russian military forces, is again in the news here in the United States, and another story involving that country – one which Joe Biden would almost certainly have hoped everyone forgot – has come to light once more.

COVID lockdowns have done more harm than good, according to a new study out of Johns Hopkins University.

The report’s […]

If NATO were to become irrelevant, the US would lose its influence on Europe. If Europe were to become an independent player in world politics, it will effectively defeat the US plan to prevent the systemic shift to multipolarity.

The onset of a belated bout of common sense in Joe Biden’s administration has reduced the danger that the United States would intervene with its own military forces if war broke out between Russia and Ukraine.

Walt Garlington ‘After the South had been conquered by war and humiliated and impoverished by peace, there appeared still to remain something which made the South different—something intangible, incomprehensible, in the realm of the spirit.

The United States must boost its production of hypersonic weapons if it’s to adequately counter and deter the capabilities being developed by China, according to a senior Pentagon official.

Ever since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, conspiracy theories have been the talk of the internet. One of the most interesting phenomena regarding the pandemic has been witnessing conspiracy theories evolve into “science,” and vice versa.

Whether the US continues with its ‘Pivot to Asia’ to more aggressively ‘contain’ China or begins ‘rebalancing’ towards Europe in order to do the same to Russia, the centrally positioned South Asian region of the Eastern Hemisphere in which India and Pakistan are located will remain pivotal in shaping the global balance of power. The grand […]

We are in effect so busy arranging the beach umbrellas per our instructions that we don’t notice the approaching tsunami. Economists focus on what can be easily measured: sales, profits, prices, tax revenues, etc. Since the decay and failure of institutions isn’t easily quantified, this decay doesn’t register in the realm of economics. Since it isn’t measured, it […]

China’s permanent representative to the UN Zhang Jun has slammed discussing the Ukraine crisis at a security council meeting.

By QTR’s Fringe Finance The linchpin that allows the world’s nefarious central banking model to be so effective is that the commonfolk – the plumber, the electrician, the teacher, the bartender, bus driver or barber – don’t understand it.

The world is realizing the price for American hegemony and vanity is criminally insane as the Ukraine debacle demonstrates amply.

These five points prove that Ukraine definitely wouldn’t “collapse” if the Minsk Accords were fully implemented but it might end up with a very different administrative structure in the most extreme scenario.

One of the two is lying but it’s unclear which it is because they both have a history of spewing fake news, though usually the same false narrative and in full coordination with one another.

So before Covid, a local school where one of my kids used to attend had prominent race issues. Namely, teachers were being accused of being blind to obvious racist incidences against black students.

The crapification of the U.S. economy is now complete. The only thing left is the tiresome waiting for the implosion of the entire travesty of a mockery of a sham.

The White House’s policy of unfettered discretion and domination, of unceremonious interference in the internal affairs of other countries, has met an increasingly widespread anti-American backlash. It was Washington that decided to “teach Serbia a lesson” by sponsoring, through the Rockefeller Foundation, anti-government protests in Serbia with the goal of changing the current government in […]

Leonid Savin On January 16, 2022, a referendum on changing the Constitution was held in Serbia. Almost immediately, citizens drew attention to the obvious inconsistencies.

Wokeism’s natural logic is to destroy the lives of people of both genders, of all races, and – if need be – of those of every age, all to leverage an otherwise unworkable ideological agenda… Wokeism has been described by its critics as the omnipresent use of race—and to a lesser extent, gender—to replace meritocracy […]

We’re being bashed in the face with western propaganda about the Ukraine situation with increasing forcefulness. Every day now we’re seeing things like “analysts” claiming Putin definitely wants a large-scale war, very familiar-looking puff pieces about Ukrainian guerrilla freedom fighters based on claims by anonymous intelligence sources, think pieces on why Americans should all care about Ukrainian freedom from Kremlin tyranny, […]

The rhetoric around the current crisis is becoming more and more removed from reality. Analysts eager to predict ‘the end of history’ see Ukraine as a pawn in their geopolitical game against Russia.

Many years too late, it appears The New York Times has suddenly discovered that the United States has been committing war crimes in Syria, coming long after it was clear Washington was pursuing regime change in Damascus.

The anti-Russian faction of the US’ permanent military, intelligence, and diplomatic bureaucracies (‘deep state’) might be preparing to sacrifice Zelensky for the grand strategic purpose of provoking the scenario that would reorient their country towards prioritizing Russia’s ‘containment’ over China’s.

This exercise in the very definition of doublethink is self-discrediting and intellectually insulting. The subversive anti-Russian faction of the US’ permanent military, intelligence, and diplomatic bureaucracies (“deep state”) is so desperate to provoke a Russian-Ukrainian proxy war that it’s now pushing speculation about Russia supposedly plotting to carry out a false flag attack comprised of […]

Recently, Copenhagen and Washington announced they are about to conclude a new defense pact, integrating the European country into the American government’s plans in light of the general security crisis on the continent.

Kiev backtracks on peace talks it proposed in Gomel after Russian Delegation arrives in Belarus.  Instead of saving lives Zelensky opts for more blood in the losing war, since that’s the order the installed puppet got from his blood-thirsty masters – the corrupt Western warmongers. Russian Delegation will Wait Until 12:00 GMT for Answer From […]

As of late, various media have been publishing numerous reports about the involvement of Turkish law enforcement agencies and special services that are supervised directly by Erdogan in blatantly illegal operations in several countries. Thus, in recent years, the Turkish agencies have kidnapped dozens of people in various countries. Since 2016, or after the attempted […]

Many of the soldiers who fought in Iraq and Afghanistan came to recognize the failure of those military actions. But why didn’t more Americans take up the campaign to end two such pointless wars? When I urge my writing students to juice up their stories, I tell them about “disruptive technologies,” inventions and concepts that end […]

Ex-US President Barack Obama and several maskless Democratic officials were pictured next to masked workers & children.  Former US President Barack Obama is among a number of Democrats facing public outrage and accusations of elitism. Pictures published by The Mail on Sunday showed Obama speaking with contractors and construction workers at his $8.7 million Hawaii property. Unlike […]

It seems like there will never be any equality in the world. Just look at the situation between the United States and Russia, as an example of how everything is upside down. It doesn’t seem to matter which party is in power in the U.S. The person in the White House doesn’t matter either. Hollywood […]

The Russian-led military alliance, the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO), created headlines in January 2022 after 2,500 of its troops entered Kazakhstan to assist in restoring order during anti-government protests in the country. The troops, sent in to secure Kazakhstan’s vital infrastructure, “helped stabilize” the government enough to allow them to put an end to […]

Prosecutors point to the brutal occupation and war crimes committed by the Third Reich Prosecutors in Russia’s Rostov region have moved to officially designate the 1941-1943 Nazi occupation of the territory as a “genocide,” citing the murders of more than 126,000 civilians and prisoners of war. Officials have prepared a petition to the court at […]

I live at a unique point on the planet. Looking west out my Seattle apartment windows on a clear day, I can see the stunning majesty of the Olympic Mountains, pink when they catch the rising sun, purple at sunset. But gazing out my windows, I often cannot help but recall that 20 miles to […]

It’s nonstop in the western media. The message – war with Russia is coming.  An American friend of mine, now living in Russia, has two sons in the US Army. One of them said to him today, “your two sons are going to be fighting your beloved Russia.” So the troops are obviously being told […]

It has become common fare to read ghoulish stories of child abuse in institutions supposedly created to care for the vulnerable. Orphanages, homes, religious orders have tended to feature, along with their assortments of innumerable sadists and pederasts. But in December, another institution caused ripples for its alleged role in abusing children. A Danish Radio […]

This series will explain how the philosophy of the American establishment formed their “understanding” of nuclear strategy, which continues to influence thought today such as in the belief in the winnability of a limited nuclear war. “She [the United States] has seen that probably for centuries to come, contests of inveterate power, and emerging right […]

The US-led Western Mainstream Media is hyping up the scenario of a so-called Russian ‘invasion’, doing so with extra gusto nowadays precisely because Ukraine is no longer playing along with its very dangerous warmongering gamble. Ukrainian President Zelensky powerfully pushed back against what he described as the “panic” being propagated by the US-led Western Mainstream […]

America’s armed forces have been in the throes of a mass die-off event ever since Covid-19 “vaccines” were forced on all servicemen. At the recent “COVID-19: A Second Opinion” panel that was hosted in Washington, D.C., Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wisc.) dropped numerous bombshells showing that Fauci Flu shots are neither safe nor effective as claimed. Doctors and other expert […]

  What happened in Kazakhstan increasingly looks like a US-Turkish-British-Israeli-led coup d’etat attempt foiled dramatically by their Eurasian adversaries… The year 2022 started with Kazakhstan on fire, a serious attack against one of the key hubs of Eurasian integration. We are only beginning to understand what and how it happened. On Monday morning, leaders of the […]

For over two years now, populations across the Western world have been bombarded with public messaging incantations that boil down to one basic formula: Freedom = Compliance. However, the formula appears to have lost its magic. Despite the aggressive use of Neuro Linguistic Programming and Behavioral Nudging to “reframe” the government’s pandemic response as an […]

The Biden regime is banning monoclonal antibodies by removing them from emergency use authorization (EUA). The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) decided out of the blue to cut off America’s supply of Regeneron, a “passive vaccine” that many Democrats seem to oppose because it was promoted by President Donald Trump. (Related: Sen. Rand Paul called out Joe Biden […]

Over the weekend we heard that the US is evacuating its embassy in Kiev for fear of a Russian invasion. We also heard that Russia is evacuating its embassy in Kiev for fear of a US-backed provocation in eastern Ukraine that may lead to a Russian military response. We are in “uncharted territory” the media […]

Western countries have refused concessions amid a tense standoff with Russia, newspaper claims. NATO and the US rejected Moscow’s core security demands, according to confidential documents published by the Spanish media.

If people continue to settle for the lesser of two evils, no change can be expected and the west will continue to be governed by the worst, least capable among us. Political leaders from around the world are experiencing the lowest approval ratings in recorded history. Emmanuel Macron in France, Boris Johnson in the UK, […]

The anti-human globalists knew their depopulation / extermination agenda couldn’t hold out forever. That’s why they were in a mad rush to achieve maximum clot shot injections before the awakening gained traction and people began to question the insanity of the entire scheme. Last weekend’s rally in Washington D.C. was the turning point on all […]

The Joe Rogan/Spotify controversy is still going on and has only gotten more vitriolic and intense. Claims that Spotify must walk away from its $200 million contract with the world’s most popular podcaster for promoting vaccine misinformation have sparked a lot of debates about freedom of speech, online censorship, what exactly those terms mean, and whether they […]

Casting critics as terrorists and threatening to sic the most powerful, pervasive and sophisticated security state in the history of the world on them is of course not about defending democracy or protecting the truth — it’s about intimidating democratic opposition into silence and submission to an official narrative. In Joe Biden’s America, attempting to […]

One can frequently disagree with government policies without necessarily regarding them with disgust, but the Joe Biden Administration has turned that corner, first with its senseless promotion of a new Cold War that could turn hot with Russia and, more recently, with its actions undertaken to undermine and punish Afghanistan. The fact that the White […]

Famed conservative filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza has released the trailer of a coming movie that reveals the “2000 Mules” that have been documented as delivering stacks of 2020 presidential election ballots to dropboxes across the nation – especially in swing states during that race. D’Souza explains, “We tracked 2,000 mules making a number of poll drops. […]

For the time being at least, diplomacy still remains a viable means for resolving the undeclared US-provoked missile crisis in Europe…Speculation admittedly abounds in such circumstances so the public might never be privy to exactly what ends up going on behind closed doors, but hopefully a resolution to this crisis will be forthcoming. The Russian […]

With President Biden’s approval rating in the gutter and Democrats increasingly concerned about their chances of holding on to Congress (as evidenced by Justice Breyer’s decision to retire), the Democratic Party is turning once again to one of its most reliable megadonors for a massive influx of campaign cash, which it will need if it […]

The current move in oil prices is largely attributed to geopolitical risk. The next major move in oil could be triggered if inventories fall to critical levels. Wall Street’s consensus seems to be that Brent will reach $100 by the summer. de touched $90 per barrel briefly this week for the first time in years. […]

Peter Schiff recently spoke at the January 2022 Virtual MoneyShow. He talked about the impacts of inflation and said stagflation is going to shock the markets. Peter said the long-overdue arrival of inflation is completely changing the investment landscape. This is going to completely change the dynamics that have existed for investors over the last decade. Pretty […]

The inhuman manner in which the United Nations International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda (ICTR) treats Rwandans who have been acquitted or who have been freed after serving their sentences obliges us to reexamine totally the body created by the UN Security Council in late 1994 (it is now known as the International Residual Mechanism for […]

Russia state-affiliated media is reporting that a Ukrainian drone strike has killed a pro-Russian fighter in Donbas, in Eastern Ukraine. News of the alleged attack emerged less than an hour after President Putin accused the United States of failing to meet any of Russia’s conditions concerning NATO expansion. “One person has been killed Tuesday, according […]

I’m still constantly receiving these little reports from across the US (and Canada!) detailing the petty indignities and absurdities to which people are subjected in the name of this-or-that overheated COVID concern. Does every last report amount to full-blown authoritarian tyranny? Not really — most probably wouldn’t even register as particularly attention-getting on their own. […]

It is easy to understand why these nations would want the U.S. obligated to fight on their behalf. What is not understandable is why the U.S. would issue such war guarantees. Why would we commit to risk war with a nuclear-armed Russia on behalf of nations no one has ever regarded as vital interests of […]

  Ukraine is disappearing, for two reasons. It has one of the world’s lowest birth rates at just 1.23 children per female, and one of the world’s highest rates of out-migration. No other country has willed itself out of existence so decisively. Ukraine’s demographic decline is so pronounced that it should be high on the […]

The political apparatus’s attempts to “hoax the country into war” with respect to Ukraine and Russia are failing to persuade the public, Mike Cernovich, author and filmmaker, said on Friday’s edition of the Breitbart News Daily podcast with host Alex Marlow. Cernovich assessed focus on Ukraine’s disputes with Russia by news media and the political class as […]

“Diversity, inclusion and equity” are destroying academia, the conservative author has warned Canadian psychologist and author Jordan Peterson has announced he is resigning as a tenured professor at the University of Toronto, citing concerns with academia’s shift towards “Diversity, Inclusivity and Equity mandates,” which he appreciates as “DIE.” The abbreviated term is one of reasons […]

Belarus will face a “swift and decisive response” from Washington if it allows Moscow to use its territory to invade Ukraine, the US State Department threatened on Tuesday, amid growing fears that a Russian military incursion is imminent. Speaking to the press, State Department spokesman Ned Price called Russia’s “surging of troops into Belarus” a […]

While some wars may be necessary and unavoidable, a war pitting Russia against Ukraine—and potentially involving the United States—doesn’t make the cut. Yet, should such a war occur, some members of the American commentariat will cheer. They have yearned for a showdown with Vladimir Putin. The depth of their animus toward Putin and the hyperbole […]

Moscow’s top diplomat has expressed disappointment over the outcome of the long-awaited talks. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has submitted a diplomatic wishlist to Moscow amid Russia-NATO row, but kept the contents secret. Diplomacy thrives in darkness, Washington appears to suggest. However, it is now all revealed, and it does not look good. Russian […]

Russia’s standoff with the US-led military bloc has already begun producing results in its own way, Fyodor Lukyanov argues. At least in the current state of tensions, both sides now know where they stand. The rapid descent of Russia’s relations with the West seems to have only just started, but has already shown something of […]

I ran across an article in International Viewpoint entitled “Russia in Africa: mercenaries and predatoriness.” The rarely used word “predatoriness” made me chuckle because of the irony, not the creative vocabulary of author Paul Marial. Before we continue, consulting Webster’s seems appropriate: “predatoriness – noun (pred·​a·​to·​ri·​ness): the quality or state of being predatory” Though Martial’s […]

Chinese state media have launched a new campaign against the United States after the Biden administration announced the deployment of 3,000 troops to Eastern Europe as Russia amassed an estimated 130,000 troops on the Ukrainian border. The media blitz comes after Chinese President Xi Jinping met with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin in Beijing on […]

The United States has ordered the families of US diplomatic staff to immediately evacuate Belarus.

  After Arab Spring protests erupted in the Middle East in 2011, toppling longtime dictators of the Arab World, including Ben Ali in Tunisia and Hosni Mubarak in Egypt, Yemenis also gathered in the capital’s squares demanding removal of Ali Abdullah Saleh. Instead of conceding to protesters’ fervent demand of holding free and fair elections […]

The designation includes accusations of ethnic cleansing against the Palestinian population.

The organization drew […]

The New York Times reports that Biden is going to forestall Russian aggression against Ukraine by deploying between 1,000 and 5,000 US troops on Russia’s border and is prepared to increase the number of troops tenfold to 10,000 to 50,000 soldiers. A Russian army would eat this small number for a snack in 5 minutes. […]

OTTAWA—Global Affairs Canada says “non-essential” Canadian employees and their dependents from the embassy in Ukraine will be temporarily withdrawn amid concerns over a buildup of Russian troops along the country’s borders.

The move comes after Prime Minister Justin […]

Tick, Tick, Tick…. Is the End Nigh? The Prime Minister of the United Kingdom was facing an immediate political death sentence, so what did he do? He declared the pandemic over. The question now on this side of the pond: Will Joe Biden—himself facing a political death sentence, though admittedly a few months away—learn anything […]

Americans use the slang “lockstep” recalling a characteristic trait of their prisons of the 19th century when inmates had to shuffle step due to the chain that linked their legs. But the US President Joe Biden used that powerful evocative metaphor to convey on Monday that his country and Germany are aligned on fighting any Russian aggression […]

According to a new report by the Wall Street Journal, several US businesses are planning to scale back their operations in Saudi Arabia, alleging that the kingdom has grown hostile towards them.

Asad Ali The motto of modern Indian state is Satyameva Jayate, a Sanskrit phrase meaning “Truth Alone Triumphs.” But incumbent Hindu dominated Indian government under Premier Modi has come to power on a dangerous lie that they have been selling to India’s Hindus: that in a country where they make up 80 percent of population, […]

Hungary’s Defense Ministry is said to be discussing the formal request; however, given […]

So before Covid, a local school where one of my kids used to attend had prominent race issues. Namely, teachers were being accused of being blind to obvious racist incidences against black students. The normalized notion of racism was so rampant that the school was forced to embrace some sort of deprogramming sessions by a […]

  Paris: Too bad for warmongers. Russia and Ukraine held talks on Wednesday in Paris’ Elysee Palace alongside representatives from Germany and France under the Normandy format and agreed an unconditional ceasefire in the Donbas region of Ukraine. Following the talks between advisors to the heads of states and governments of France, Germany, Ukraine and […]

Pepe Escobar The sweeping new Sino-Russian strategic partnership struck in Beijing this week has established clear expectations of geopolitically-ambiguous Eurasian states like Turkey. The Chinese year of the Black Water Tiger started with a big bang – a live Beijing summit between Russian President Vladimir Putin and his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping – and a minor bang […]

The phone call between President Biden and Ukrainian President Zelensky “did not go well”, CNN headlines: while “Biden warned that a Russian invasion is practically certain in February, when the frozen ground makes it possible for tanks to pass through”, Zelensky “asked Biden to lower his tone, arguing that the Russian threat is still ambiguous”. […]

“Bad” Vlad Putin only “took over” part of Ukraine because of President Biden’s weakness. So says many in the US right wing. A “real man” president would have imposed costs so prohibitive that Putin would never have dreamed of recognizing what has been de facto reality since 2014: that the Russian-speaking part of Ukraine wants no part […]

Anyone living in a Western ‘democracy’ who still thinks they are bastions of freedom and liberty should be paying close attention to what is going on currently in Canada with the “Freedom Convoy” truckers because we’re about to get a lesson in reality. For the past two years, ‘liberal democracies’ throughout the West have used […]

While the situation in the Donbas becomes more and more scorching, on the eve of the talk with Putin, Biden convened on 11 February what is in fact NATO and the European Union war council: the Secretary-General of NATO Jens Stoltenberg, the British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, the French President Emmanuel Macron, the German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, the Italian Prime […]

We are told that comparing current Covid policies concerning the unvaccinated to Nazi-era policies is outrageous. We are told we are dishonoring the memory of the dead. No one should apologize for comparing Nazi policies with stigmatization of the unvaccinated today. Comparisons reveal mindsets. If an alcoholic, Peter, said he has nothing to learn from Tom’s experience, since […]

Truckers in the Netherlands formed a convoy on Sunday to protest their nation’s lockdown measures, following the lead of their fellow road hauliers in Canada. A convoy of trucks, tractors, and cars formed in Leeuwarden on Sunday to protest lockdown measures in the Netherlands. The Dutch convoy mimicks a major lockdown protest being held in […]

After the Omicron scare that failed to convince more Americans to roll up their sleeves and take the mRNA gene therapy shots shown to be wildly ineffective, the rulers have another idea. Expect another variant, one that is much more “deadly.” So what’s up their sleeves? Is there going to be another scariant, or an actual illness that’s actually […]

US security officials expect Kyiv to fall in 96 hours after the first day of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Newsweek reported: Three U.S. officials have told Newsweek they expect Ukraine’s capital Kyiv to fall to incoming Russian forces within days, and the country’s resistance to be effectively neutralized soon thereafter. The officials, speaking on […]

If the Covid policy crisis has done anything, it is to make clear that “government scientific agency” is as much of an oxymoron as military intelligence, jumbo shrimp, or Marxist economist. Government bureaucracies cannot “do” science because their incentives are all wrong. Science flourishes only in a competitive environment. In fact, science properly understood pits […]

It could justify infinite spending to protect democracy from the evil Russians who are just itching to march on Paris with shining breast-plated cavalry and gleaming bayonets or whatever goofy fantasy the Mainstream Media can dream up. Perhaps I was too optimistic at the very start of 2022 about the chances that Washington and Moscow […]

Experienced foreign policy analysts such as Ray McGovern, Scott Ritter, and Pepe Escobar, while agreeing that the Biden administration is clearly guilty of provoking Russia over Ukraine, are divided over whether it will lead to war.  All agree that Russia has no intention of invading Ukraine and that it is clearly justified in demanding safe borders by insisting […]

The former president described the crowd as a “sea of people” that stretched […]

In modern times, as in ancient Rome, several nations have suffered a “systems collapse.” The term describes the sudden inability of once-prosperous populations to continue with what had ensured the good life as they knew it. Abruptly, the population cannot buy, or even find, once plentiful necessities. They feel their streets are unsafe. Laws go […]

Ispent the first third of my career among conservatives and the next two-thirds among progressives. At first, I thought both parties were equally cynical and instrumental when it came to theories of constitutional authority. The party that controls Congress only seeks to minimize presidential authority, and vice versa. I no longer think that views of […]

Croatian President Zoran Milanovic blamed the US for escalating the crisis and said his country would stay out of a conflict With tensions growing on the border between Russia and Ukraine, Croatian President Zoran Milanovic has announced that Zagreb will pull its troops out of NATO contingents stationed in the region should the situation spiral […]

Brits are being told to reduce their living standards and tighten their belts even as it’s announced that the government is spending £4.7 million pounds a day on housing refugees in hotels. Yes, really. Earlier today, the Bank of England said citizens must prepare for the biggest fall in their standard of living for decades […]

Turkey has lately shown signs of a clearly growing socio-political crisis in the country. Its economy is going through a difficult, if not disastrous, phase: the lira is plummeting, foreign exchange reserves are shrinking, external debt and unemployment are skyrocketing. All this raises doubts about the republic’s financial and economic prospects and the sustainability of […]

This is totally normal. Joe Biden’s Surgeon General is attacking Joe Rogan. As reporter earlier, 1960s rocker Neil Young said that Spotify must choose between podcaster Joe Rogan and Young’s music. Highly popular podcaster Joe Rogan has a huge audience because people enjoy hearing different opinions. The knives are now out for Rogan because he […]

It’s time to concede European integration failed. What are the consequences? When Did We Lose the Fight? Eurointelligence founder Wolfgang Münchau is a strong pro-Europe advocate. He has been that way for the entire decade I followed him. Earlier this month he commented: “The battle for European integration has failed. It is time to recognise […]

A series of Saudi-led airstrikes were blamed Friday for killing scores of people in Yemen as civilians, including children, continue to suffer deadly consequences of the U.S.-backed conflict that has lasted for years. Overnight bombings included one that targeted a prison holding mostly migrants in the northern city of Sa’ada, an area described as being under […]

Even though the Biden administration did not invite Erdogan to the “democracy summit”, changing geo-political circumstances – in particular, the West (EU and the US) vs. Russia tensions around the former’s bid to expand NATO to Ukraine – seem to have changed, at least in Turkey’s eyes, Ankara’s importance for the West. From being a […]

Long ago people typically married as teenagers, but today we usually tell people to date while young, but don’t get married til later. In the US in 2018 the median age of first marriage was 28 for women, 30 for men. Many religions have not allowed you to join until you were old enough to […]

The survey asked respondents, “Will President Joe Biden be  remembered as one of the best presidents or one of the worst presidents in  American history?” A majority, 54 percent, said he […]

Russia-bashing is a bi-partisan activity in Washington. Both parties think it makes them look “tough” and “pro-America.” But while Republican and Democrat politicians continue to one-up each other on “risk-free” threats to Russia, they are increasingly risking a devastating nuclear war. It’s all fun and games until the missiles start flying. And in this case […]

Pro-war hawks in the West have resorted to overt hostility toward those who argue against conflict in Ukraine. Those in the West who dare to question the validity of potential conflict in Ukraine are increasingly being accused of disloyalty. On Tuesday, after weeks of international uncertainty and fears of conflict, Russia announced it would be […]

It was very noticeable when this week British military flights delivering weapons to Ukraine deliberately avoided German airspace – so much so that Berlin issued a statement clarifying that the German government had not demanded this ahead of time, saying it has “not denied access to its airspace as the UK did not submit a […]
