When it comes to its talking points, The John Birch Society (JBS) is thick with assertions and thin with evidence and history. For instance, the JBS regards the US Constitution as perfection on earth. This isn’t an exaggeration.1 The JBS simply disregards the Framers’ perception of their work. Right out of the chute in 1788, Alexander Hamilton in Federalist 85 encouraged the remaining states outside the Union to ratify the Constitution and join their fellows in Article V to provide amendments that better secured some basic rights. The Constitution, he wrote, was not “absolute perfection,” but upon the whole, it...

Plans to build a bridge or tunnel between Scotland and Northern Ireland have been ruled out due to forecasted costs and engineering challenges.

The Telegraph first reported that transport expert Sir Peter Hendy, who was asked by the government to examine connections between the different parts of the UK, had concluded the project was not currently viable.

Dr. Anthony Fauci says his view of wearing a mask in public has evolved with "the science" since he declared on "60 Minutes" early in the pandemic that people shouldn't go around town wearing them. But judging by his actions, his latest assessment of "the science" appears to be that people need to wear a mask only around those they don't trust. Politico, citing Washington Post writer and author Sally Quinn, reported Fauci was at a book party last Tuesday night for Jonathan Karl where the White House coronavirus adviser was taking his mask off and on depending on whom...

Did the FBI commit treason against America on January 6th? Did the FBI break entrapment laws? If Ray Epps is an FBI informant, as he appears to be, then the answer is obvious. Watch the video to learn more about Ray Epps.

It is now under the eyes of many people, in Italy and in the rest of the world, that the pandemic emergency was and is the ideal pretext for imposing new rules of social control. These rules do not promise anything good but only a slow and progressive strangulation of all the freedoms that the Western world (and not only it) has managed to conquer. Fear of the virus is the tool to facilitate unprecedented social conditioning.The results are sadly visible in Australia and New Zealand, which have become health hells where the police forces have undergone a disgusting anthropological...

ransomnote: Transcript of subtitles on a 2 minute German video. He speaks audibly in German but, as with other censored videos I've come across lately, there's electronic popping and muting of his words. Fortunately, the video includes English subtitles.The speaker is Dr. Thomas Jendge (†55). He overcame his reticence to declare what is happening with Covid has nothing to do with a virus, and is instead, the installation of dictatorship. He called for protests. I don't believe he committed suicide; instead I believe they 'helped' him off the building for alerting the public to the dictatorship forming around them.Head Of...

The order, effective 11:59 p.m. Sunday , cites increased COVID-19 cases and increased hospitalizations moving into the holidays and winter months. “Unfortunately, a potential winter surge appears to be a significant threat to the health and safety of our community,” Newel said in a prepared release.

The Electromagnetic Considerations of the Nuclear Force November 2017 Advanced Electromagnetics 6(4):70-82 DOI:10.7716/aem.v6i4.665 Authors: N. L. Bowen Colorado Mountain College Request Full-text Paper PDF To read the full-text of this research, you can request a copy directly from the author. Abstract This paper explores how the electromagnetic energies of the quarks within the nucleus affect the behavior of the nuclear force. By examining the electromagnetic energies and forces, many questions about nuclear behavior can be answered and many insights into the nucleus can be gained.

Democrat Texas gubernatorial candidate Beto O’Rourke said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that he stood behind his pledge to take away “weapons of war” from American citizens. Anchor Dana Bash said, “It was gun control, in particular, was your number one issue in your presidential campaign. I want to play something you said on the debate stage in 2019 shortly after a mass shooting in your hometown of El Paso.”
