America, the Central Bank is dead. There is ZERO chance $30+ trillion in fiat debt will ever be repaid with more fiat dollars. We’re in technical default. And President Trump knows this. The Solution? US Treasury Notes issued by our US Treasury will soon replace the fraudulent, 98% devalued Federal Reserve debt contracts (dollars). America’s soon to be, newly issued, asset back currency and our revitalized “America First” economy will reverse Bretton Woods and the Federal Reserve‘s death grip will officially be removed from America‘s throat. Every new US Treasury note will equate to an inflated number of current fiat...

Vote selling concerned some a century ago. Many voted for Prohibition to stop taverns from trading beer for ballots. Vote selling hasn't been practical in this century because would be sellers cannot prove how they voted. New mail in voting procedures will make it easier for Americans to sell their votes because the seller could show the buyer the completed ballot or give the buyer the blank ballot and envelope. Drug dealers would be the first ballot buyers because they can trade drugs for ballots and their organizations want to affect some races. Their customers might know other vote sellers....

When U.S. GDP dropped 9.5 percent, multiple media outlets and journalists fired off on Twitter and their headlines that second quarter GDP actually fell 32.9 percent, which was false. The 32.9 percent figure is the annualized rate of decline in GDP. The Washington Post understood that there was confusion on the interpretation of the data in a July 30 piece headlined, “Did a third of the economy really vanish in just three months?” It’s sub-headline noted that “[t]he second quarter GDP report confused many.” But instead of holding its media competitors to account for pushing a false narrative, The Post...

The localized lockdowns weren’t bad enough. Fill-in host and former Face the Nation anchor John Dickerson failed to push back on Minneapolis Federal Reserve Bank President Neel Kashkari’s proposal that the entire country go into a month-long national economic shutdown. GDP fell 9.5 percent in the second quarter, and at least “30 million” are unemployed, in-part due to the lockdowns and stay-at-home orders imposed by states. Apparently those factors weren’t significant enough for Dickerson to push back on a proposal for a national economic lockdown.

Measured by his contributions to economics, political theory, and intellectual history, Thomas Sowell ranks among the towering intellects of our time. Yet, rare among such thinkers, Sowell manages never to provoke, in the reader, the feeling of being towered over. As Kevin Williamson observed, Sowell is “that rarest of things among serious academics: plainspoken.” From 1991 until 2016, his nationally syndicated column set the bar for clear writing, though the topics he covered were often complex. “Too many academics write as if plain English is beneath their dignity,” Sowell once said, “and some seem to regard logic as an unconstitutional...

No, I don’t know where Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg got his medical degree and license either, yet there he sits atop the social media food chain dictating who can say and know what about the Chinese Wuhan virus pandemic and its treatments and possible cures. He now says he knows more than board-certified medical doctors about the drug hydroxychloroquine, for example, and will deny you access to what they say, calling their judgments and pronouncement based on their studies and actual experience treating patients as “harmful misinformation. Dr. Zuckerberg has spoken and he will not let us hear a second...

Rep. Karen Bass on Sunday walked back 2016 comments praising Cuban leader Fidel Castro, as scrutiny of her views toward the Communist government threatened her potential selection as former Vice President Joe Biden's running mate. On “Fox News Sunday,“ the California Democrat faced questions about several visits to Cuba in the 1970s and a statement she released after Castro's 2016 death saying, "the passing of the Comandante en Jefe is a great loss to the people of Cuba.” Bass told Fox host Chris Wallace that her perspective "developed over time" and that she now understood that the Castro government "was...

Loneliness is such a sad affair, as the saying goes, and our politicians have succeeded in turning America into a lonely nation by decree. We are going on four months now of lockdowns, business shutdowns, and few social gatherings. What this is doing to the nation's psyche has been devastating. (snip) Probably everyone reading this knows more than one person suffering from the agony of moderate to severe depression resulting from this continuing, godawful economic lockdown that is supposed to be saving lives. The adverse effects on the public's health are getting more worrisome with every passing week. The good...

"Hands Up Who Wants To Wear A Face Mask To Support The Government?".... The Dictatorship Should Be The Top Issue But You Are Being Distracted And Diverted Here we are in the Dictatorship of Covid-19 where the objective of politicians is to divert you onto something else like the Republican Congressman Jim Jordan of Ohio rope a doping with Dr. Anthony Fauci yesterday not about being forced to wear a muzzle, being forced to don a face diaper. No, he wants Fauci to say something about protests spreading Covid-19 instead since there's more public opinion against these protests than against...

As I wrote earlier this week, there’s a major scandal brewing in this deal. Everything about it looks fishy: While Trump has refused to heed calls to invoke the Defense Production Act for the manufacture of PPE and COVID-19 testing supplies, he suddenly gifted Kodak, the camera people, with a $765M loan for a not-yet established division to start producing ingredients for pharmaceuticals. The Washington Post notes that the lender, U.S. International Development Finance Corporation, or DFC, “normally funds infrastructure and other projects in the developing world. But in an executive order signed in May, President Trump gave DFC...

Frustrated by Republican opposition to the continuation of the coronavirus stimulation package provision that added a $600/week supplement to normal unemployment compensation, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif) told CNN's Anderson Cooper that "Republicans have disdain toward working people. They argue that when combined with the usual unemployment benefits the added $600 makes staying unemployed more remunerative than going back to work for many of our lower-wage employees. Well, duh. Who wouldn't prefer leisure to work, especially if it comes with a bigger income." "Republicans act as if the 30 million currently unemployed is a bad thing," the Speaker went on....

Brian Williams, the host of MSNBC’s 11th Hour nightly news program, claimed on Thursday night that U.S. economic output declined by one-third. Claim: “The GDP from April through June dropped a staggering 32.9 percent. Put another way, that’s a loss of fully one-third of our output of goods and services as a country.” Verdict: FALSE.The output of goods and services declined 9.5 percent in the April through June period, when measured against the first quarter of 2020 or the year-prior period. The Bureau of Economic Analysis annualizes changes in gross domestic product in its reports, which is why it describes...

<p>Cultural suicide used to be a popular diagnosis of why things suddenly just quit.</p>
<p>Historians such as Oswald Spengler and Arnold Toynbee cited social cannibalism to explain why once-successful states, institutions and cultures simply died off.</p>
<p>Their common explanation was that the arrogance of success ensures lethal consequences. Once elites became pampered and arrogant, they feel exempt from their ancestors’ respect for moral and spiritual laws like thrift, moderation and transcendence.</p>
