One of the most encouraging and promising things President-elect Trump said in his post-election acceptance speech was, “I’m not going to start a war. I’m going to stop wars…” We all understand that campaign promises often have a short shelf life after the election is over, but the Trump campaign’s repeated talk of peace over … Continue reading “If Trump Didn’t Send Musk to Talk with the Iranians… He Should!”

Why Should We Fight Wars for Ukraine and Israel?
When you take on the role of the world’s policeman, don’t be surprised when countries who cannot fight their own wars call “911.” That is exactly what is happening to the United States on two fronts and it is bankrupting our country, depleting the military that should serve our own national interest, and threatening to … Continue reading “Why Should We Fight Wars for Ukraine and Israel?”
American Neocons Get Their Iran War as Congress Sleeps
Over the weekend, the Commander of the US Central Command (CENTCOM), General Michael Kurilla, arrived in Israel to “coordinate” with the Israeli military and plan a military strike against Iran. Think about that for a moment: one of the highest-ranking officers in the US military is planning a war in a foreign country against another … Continue reading “American Neocons Get Their Iran War as Congress Sleeps”
Washington’s Ukraine Obsession Is Going To Get Us All Killed!
Last week the world narrowly escaped likely nuclear destruction, as the Biden Administration considered Ukraine’s request to allow US missiles to strike deeply into Russian territory. Russian president Vladimir Putin warned, as the request was being considered, that because these missiles could not be launched without the active participation of the US military and NATO, … Continue reading “Washington’s Ukraine Obsession Is Going To Get Us All Killed!”
We Spent a Billion Dollars Fighting the Houthis… and Lost
Why does it seem the Pentagon is far better at spending money than actually putting together a successful operation? The failed “Operation Prosperity Guardian” and the disastrous floating Gaza pier are but two recent examples of enormously expensive initiatives that, though they no-doubt enriched military contractors, were incapable of meeting their stated goals. To great … Continue reading “We Spent a Billion Dollars Fighting the Houthis… and Lost”
The Vietnamization of Ukraine
As Ukraine’s defeat in the war moves closer, the neocons are desperate to draw the US further into the fight. Over the weekend, former US State Department official Victoria Nuland told ABC News that the US must help facilitate Ukrainian missile attacks deep inside Russian territory. The Biden Administration has to this point avoided involvement … Continue reading “The Vietnamization of Ukraine”
The Great Ukraine Robbery Is Not Over Yet
The ink was barely dry on President Biden’s signature transferring another $61 billion to the black hole called Ukraine, when the mainstream media broke the news that this was not the parting shot in a failed US policy. The elites have no intention of shutting down this gravy train, which transports wealth from the middle … Continue reading “The Great Ukraine Robbery Is Not Over Yet”
TikTok Ban Exposes Hypocrisy in Congress
President Biden’s campaign will continue using the popular social media site TikTok even though the president supported a provision in the military aid bill he recently signed forcing TikTok’s parent company ByteDance to sell TikTok within 270 days. If ByteDance does not sell TikTok within the required time, TikTok will be banned in the USA. … Continue reading “TikTok Ban Exposes Hypocrisy in Congress”
April 20, 2024: Final Nail in America’s Coffin?
When future historians go searching for the final nail in the US coffin, they may well settle on the date April 20, 2024. On that day Congress passed legislation to fund two and a half wars, hand what’s left of our privacy over to the CIA and NSA, and give the US president the power … Continue reading “April 20, 2024: Final Nail in America’s Coffin?”
FISA Exchanges Real Liberty for Phantom Security
House Speaker Mike Johnson betrayed liberty and the Constitution by making a full-court press to get a “clean” reauthorization of Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance (FISA) Act through the House. Section 702 authorizes warrantless surveillance of foreign citizens. When the FISA Act was passed, surveillance state boosters promised that 702 warrantless surveillances would … Continue reading “FISA Exchanges Real Liberty for Phantom Security”
