You know I have been harping on this point for weeks now, that Putin’s true goal is to recapture the lands of the old Russian empire from the days of the Tsars. Ukrainian independence is a new and modern occurrence, and has only been the norm for the past 30 years or so since theContinue reading “Putin’s Ultimate Goal”

The Karenization of the US Economy
15 years after the peak of the Housing Bubble, home prices in the US have hit a new record high: However, unlike last time around, where an outsized number of mortgages were handed out to subprime borrowers (people with low credit scores) and subsequently securitized into highly risky assets that ultimately blew up and nearlyContinue reading “The Karenization of the US Economy”
Do Low Interest Rates Depress Economic Growth Over the Long-Term?
The conventional wisdom around the world is that low interest rates are conducive to higher economic growth, while higher interest rates reduce economic growth. This is certainly true. We see it consistently: economic recovery begins when interest rates get slashed, and recessions begin when interest rates get too high. It’s the way the global economyContinue reading “Do Low Interest Rates Depress Economic Growth Over the Long-Term?”
Donald Trump Does Not Have Your Back
Readers of this site will know that as of late I have been talking quite a bit about the future of the Republican Party going forward into 2022 and ultimately 2024. There is an internal debate within the party about whether to run it back with Trump in 2024 or turn the page and goContinue reading “Donald Trump Does Not Have Your Back”
The Crux of the Matter at Hand
We have the most selfish, entitled and clueless set of ruling elites in the world. Imagine how greedy you’d have to be to look at rising tensions between Russia and Ukraine as an American problem to deal with. The US Establishment believes we are the only country that is allowed to meddle in other countries’Continue reading “The Crux of the Matter at Hand”
The Big Grift™: Democrats Will Plunder America Until There’s Nothing Left
The corporate media is already launching an all-out assault on Ron DeSantis in preparation of 2024. They are already terrified of him: Oh, right: authoritarianism. Not having to show a vaccine card at a restaurant is “authoritarianism,” I guess. Not allowing corporations to fire unvaxxed employees is “authoritarianism,” I guess. Well, if that’s authoritarianism, thenContinue reading “The Big Grift™: Democrats Will Plunder America Until There’s Nothing Left”
The Decline of Hollywood: Golden Globes Will Not Be Televised This Year
Am I the only one who feels like Hollywood is in terminal decline? It’s not immediately clear why exactly the Golden Globes will not be televised, but one would assume it’s because the ratings have tanked. This is all the NY Post article really provided as far as a reason: The controversy-riddled event was alreadyContinue reading “The Decline of Hollywood: Golden Globes Will Not Be Televised This Year”
Is Trump 2024 the Answer? And if Not, What Is?
I am going to preface this post by saying that if Trump is the Republican nominee in 2024 I will support him without hesitation. I won’t just vote for him, I’ll actively support him. I will never even consider voting for a Democrat, ever. The Democrats are not a political party, they are a giganticContinue reading “Is Trump 2024 the Answer? And if Not, What Is?”
From 1865-1992, Republicans Dominated American Politics
If we go back in history to the end of the Civil War in 1865, what we can see is that the default state of American politics is Republicans in power. This nation had a decided Republican bent for over 125 years. That has only changed in the past 30 years. Let’s go through, startingContinue reading “From 1865-1992, Republicans Dominated American Politics”
The “Alpha Male” Problem
I did not really know who Jack Murphy was until about a week ago. I had seen his account several times on Twitter, whether through retweets from people I follow or suggested tweets, etc. I just figured he was one of the many “conservative voices” on Twitter. I can’t even recall any specific tweet ofContinue reading “The “Alpha Male” Problem”
From Class War to Race War
If you read this site, you know that I am always talking about how the media and the government seek to divide the country. That’s their primary means of clinging to power. They make us fight amongst one another so that we can never unite against them. If you go back to the start ofContinue reading “From Class War to Race War”
What Inflation Means for America
Right now in this country, with inflation at its highest rate in four decades, there is a significant debate taking place over whether inflation is good or bad for the average American, and whether it is good or bad for the wealthy elites. As I noted in a prior post, if inflation was still calculatedContinue reading “What Inflation Means for America”
Confirmed: The “Coming Civil War” Narrative is an Establishment Psyop
The Establishment’s primary means of maintaining control in this country is to keep the masses divided at all times. I sound like a broken record saying this but it’s the truth: they want us fighting amongst one another rather than uniting and coming after them. I have also said on this site that I believeContinue reading “Confirmed: The “Coming Civil War” Narrative is an Establishment Psyop”
The Great Ivermectin Debate
Via Google, Covid is now virtually nonexistent in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh: Uttar Pradesh is the largest state in India and home to some 232 million people. It is currently averaging about 13 new Covid cases per day, and has been averaging fewer than 100 new cases a day since mid-July. This isContinue reading “The Great Ivermectin Debate”
Thoughts on Revolutions, and Conspiracy Theories
I wanted to follow up on my previous post on the conspiracy theory that the vaccine is a conspiracy to depopulate the world. This post will touch on the idea of conspiracy theories more generally, and how governments rise and fall. There is a great episode of South Park, season 10 episode 9, “The MysteryContinue reading “Thoughts on Revolutions, and Conspiracy Theories”
Is the Democratic Party Giving Up on Latino Voters?
In my last post, I talked briefly about the left’s replacement of the word “equality” with the word “equity.” There’s nothing accidental about the switch. Equality means everyone is treated the same, equity means people the left deems as “disadvantaged” or “victims” are given preferential treatment. Pay close attention to the language and terminology theyContinue reading “Is the Democratic Party Giving Up on Latino Voters?”
America is Becoming a Third-World Nation
Over about a 150 year period, starting in 1776 with the American Revolution, hastening in 1792 with the French Revolution, and concluding around the end of World War I in 1918 with the abolition of the German, Russian, Austro-Hungarian and Ottoman monarchies, the Western world transitioned from monarchial government to democratic government. But just becauseContinue reading “America is Becoming a Third-World Nation”
The Two Coups: Part I, the Kennedy Assassination
About a month ago, Biden delayed for at least a year the release of papers and records pertaining to the JFK assassination, absurdly citing concerns about the Covid-19 Pandemic. Via the NY Times: The pandemic has created backlogs for multiple federal agencies, resulting in pileups of visa applications, unprocessed Social Security benefits and backlogs in F.D.A. inspections. OnContinue reading “The Two Coups: Part I, the Kennedy Assassination”
The Problem With “Science”
You hear it all the time today, more than ever before: “TRUST THE SCIENCE!” “SCIENCE-DENIER!” “I’m getting the vaccine because I trust the scientists!” “If only we’d trusted The Science, then we wouldn’t be in this mess!” Dr. Anthony Fauci, the Chief Medical Advisor to the President and the Director of the National Institute ofContinue reading “The Problem With “Science””
