Be very careful of those who use three-word slogans to rally the country ... "Peace Through Strength" "Strength Through Joy" "Joy Through Community" "Community Through Identity" "Identity Through Nationhood" "Nationhood Through Sacrifice" "Sacrifice Through War"

Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/o...

DOGE plan to rig our elections Russia-style. youtu.be/TjD3aiRKNDc?...

B of A: “.. The US has a higher proportion of low-income consumers than almost every other OECD nation ..”

Donny want's to waste $175 Billion for "Golden Comb Over" missile defense. No doubt $1 Trillion with cost overruns. www.npr.org/2025/05/20/n...

Cato has published my comprehensive review of the ~240 Venezuelans the US government renditioned 2 months ago to Salvador’s notorious prison. We identified FIFTY who came legally, never violated any immigration law, but are imprisoned at the US government’s request and at US taxpayer expense.
