It would be nice to think that all we have to do is get out and vote to rid ourselves of these warmongers. But they control the elections, and they are in their glory. I do not see how we can avoid this war. They are doing everything in their power to prevent RFK from being on the ballot and to destroy Donald Trump, all so they retain their power with their hand puppet, Joe Biden. Before Biden was Vice President, I was at some dinner many years ago and I was not impressed with him back then. In fact,...

Glad I have your attention now. Because we do have issues we care about. I’m a 38 year old black man from South Carolina. But I don’t pretend that, as a Black man, I speak for everyone who looks like me. I’m just not that arrogant nor am I crazy as hell. On the other hand, I’m also not stupid. I travel a lot escaping my own personal echo chamber whenever I get the chance and I listen more than I talk. Whether I’m sitting in the barbershop, praying in church, waiting in the airport or walking down the street....

Trump wants to undermine the rule of law, to destroy our institutions, to pull us out of NATO, do Putin’s bidding, to be unwilling to stand up for the real American values, to put one person above the country. None of that is American. I think that Biden/Harris deserve to be reelected."

Ron Paul, who is, in my view, perhaps the single greatest living libertarian politician in the world, was born in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, on August 20, 1935. He came to my attention through his “what if” speech on YouTube. I consider it to be a truly great poem. I throw up for contrast with some of Paul’s thought a book title from Paleoconservative Pat Buchanan: “Churchill, Hitler and The Unnecessary War: How Britain Lost Its Empire and the West Lost the World.” To what extent would his fellow libertarian, Ron Paul, agree? Here is a taste of Paul’s thought: “There is...

Russia will regard Western F-16 fighter jets sent to Ukraine as a "nuclear" threat because of their capacity to carry atomic weapons, Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said on Thursday. Modern warplanes have been at the forefront of Kyiv's demands for military aid from its Western allies as it fights back against Russia's offensive. Lavrov spoke of a US plan to transfer F-16s to Ukraine, although Washington has not given the go-ahead for any country to supply them. "Russia cannot ignore the ability of these aircraft to carry nuclear weapons. No amount of assurances will help here," Lavrov was quoted as...

A growing number of countries are coming forward to join BRICS and accept the new currency for global trade. The South African ambassador Anil Sooklal hinted that the alliance could expand this year becoming BRICS+. The move could add pressure on the U.S. dollar as developing nations would end their reliance on the greenback. The global financial order could tilt from the West to the East creating a new multipolar economy. According to the latest report, the BRICS alliance has formally received applications from 25 countries to join the bloc. The 25 nations that expressed their interest to join are...

That day started out like any other. The morning hustle and bustle of modern people living in a modern age began as they boarded their motorized chariots and underwent the hellish voyage into the urban sprawl amidst a sea of red lights. Tens of thousands of their fellow citizens made their way to each of their respective livelihoods, all thinking today was likely to be identical to the day before. The normalcy bias of the modern era was not so much indicative of the lack of perspective this generation held too, but that the overload of daily information made it...

“Backbencher in the Trump Administration, Alyssa Farah, like so many other sleazebags, had only glowing reviews of the Trump Administration until long after she left,” Trump posted. Trump launched his attack on Griffin on Truth Social Saturday night. “A loser then, and a loser now! he added.

NEW YORK – Donald Trump is expected to be indicted on Wednesday, but his arraignment in New York will not take place until next week, according to a new report from DailyMail.com. The Manhattan District Attorney’s office is expected to formally charge the former president over hush money payments made to porn actress Stormy Daniels. Following the indictment, arrangements will be made with Trump and his Secret Service detail for his surrender, after which he will travel to New York to be arraigned, the report said. Alvin Bragg, the Manhattan District Attorney, will be making the indictment.

A Florida federal judge...sanctioned former President Donald Trump and his lead attorney Alina Habba nearly $1 million in Trump's racketeering lawsuit against Hillary Clinton for what the judge called a "pattern of misuse of the courts." In a scathing order, U.S. District Judge Donald M. Middlebrooks said Trump and Habba... are jointly liable for $937,989.39 in attorney fees and costs of the 31 defendants... which claimed that Clinton conspired with the Democratic National Committee and others to "weave a false narrative" that Trump colluded with Russians..." Judge Middlebrooks said the lawsuit "should never have been filed" and was brought simply...

Originally, this piece was going to be something of a call to arms for my readers—for this Truth Community at large—to get out and vote in tomorrow’s absolutely essential Midterm Elections. Ultimately, I reconsidered. Not because that message isn’t important—and we will revisit it before the end—but because it would be too simple, condescending and, frankly insulting to this audience. Of course you know you need to get out and vote tomorrow and, as I explored in detail in my last special feature, ‘Lay of the Land,’ you also know that voting is of the utmost importance even IF the...

The International Monetary Fund is warning that the world is in for a rough ride, with more than a third of the global economy forecast to contract over this year and next amid a cost-of-living crisis fueled by inflation and exacerbated by factors such as Russia’s war in Ukraine. For most people, it will feel like a recession. “The worst is yet to come,” said the fund’s Chief Economist Pierre-Olivier Gourinchas. Speaking to a packed press conference Tuesday to launch the latest World Economic Outlook, he had a grim warning on global inflation, saying it is expected to peak at...

An energy crisis manufactured by the globalist agenda to rapidly transition from oil and natural gas to green energy will lead to famine and freezing across Europe, warns a veteran international journalist. Michael Yon, a U.S. Army Special Forces veteran, pointed out in an interview Monday that the sabotage of the Nord Stream pipeline has exacerbated shortages that already have spiked the costs of energy and of nitrogen-based fertilizers that together drive up the cost of food while threatening the ability of families to heat their homes and cook their meals. "We're actually beyond the precipice at this point," Yon...

Ron DeSantis @RonDeSantisFL The raid of MAL is another escalation in the weaponization of federal agencies against the Regime’s political opponents, while people like Hunter Biden get treated with kid gloves.

As former Vice President Mike Pence positions himself for a possible presidential race, he is setting a great example of substance of the sort that the public should demand from all White House aspirants. On Thursday, Pence’s Advancing American Freedom organization launched a “Freedom Agenda” featuring what, by modern standards, is a remarkable amount of depth and specificity. Readers may also be struck by how much its tone sounds Reaganesque, more focused on what the group (and thus Pence) is for than what it opposes. The agenda is divided into three sections: American culture, American opportunity, and American leadership. Each...

In case it wasn’t obvious, the Western mind is damaged goods. Many observers would say that this is a recent state of affairs, but in truth it’s something that has been slowly building for centuries. It started with the broad acceptance of Cartesian dualism, the conceptual separation of the mind from the body that developed as an over-mechanised response to the scientific discoveries of men like Copernicus and Kepler. This “analytical mindset,” in the original sense of analysis as “the resolution of something complex into simple elements,” destroyed the manifold intricacy of organic traditional society as it was conceptually applied...
