A History Of The Korean War (1950-1953)

To understand of many Mexican attitudes toward the United States and immigration, you have to go back to the Mexican-American War of 1846-48, of which most Americans have never heard. The United States attacked Mexico in a war of  territorial acquisition, occupied Texas, California, New Mexico, and Arizona, and drove south to conquer Mexico City. It did it because it could. The attitude of Americans who have heard of the war is usually, “Get over it.” Mexicans have not gotten over it. People get over things they have done to others more easily than they get over things others have … Continue reading →

It is a basic rule from Journalism 101 that when an allegation is in serious doubt – or hasn’t been established as fact – you should convey that uncertainty to your reader by using words like “alleged” or “purportedly.” But The New York Times and pretty much the entire U.S. news media have abandoned that principle in their avid pursuit of Russia-gate. hen Russia is the target of an article, the Times typically casts aside all uncertainty about Russia’s guilt, a pattern that we’ve seen in the Times in earlier sloppy reporting about other “enemy” countries, such as Iraq or … Continue reading →

As the waters recede from Houston, thousands of flooded cars will be aired out – and shipped out – to unsuspecting used car lots all over the country. Their titles as “washed” as their interiors (and the rest of them, too). As OJ used to say – and will probably say soon again – look out! Ideally, these flood-damaged unterseebooten would be written off as collateral damage of the hurricane. But when there’s a buck to be made, people will try to make a buck. What happens is as follows: The cars – many of them brand-new – are declared total losses and … Continue reading →

Recently, I wrote an article on lost causes on the Left. I began it with this quotation from a civil rights activist in the mid-1960’s: Mel Leventhal. Everything meaningful that’s ever happened in the world, any change, any improvement comes about because of optimism. The pessimists don’t get anything done. They’re naysayers. You have to see the potential for change. And you’ve got to see it not in terms of the moment but in terms of the long view, the long haul. Two days later, the president of the Mises Institute, Jeff Deist, published an article on the optimism of libertarian economist … Continue reading →

Two weeks ago, we reported that Brian Wilcox, a former member of the NASA Advisory Council on Planetary Defense, had shared a report on what the Space Agency considered one of the greatest natural threats to human civilization: the Yellowstone “supervolcano.” Following an article published by BBC about super volcanoes last month, a group of NASA researchers got in touch with the media to share a report previously unseen outside the space agency about the threat Yellowstone poses, and what they hypothesize could possibly be done about it.  “I was a member of the NASA Advisory Council on Planetary Defense which studied ways … Continue reading →

Thousands of Americans continue to sign a petition demanding that the US government declare billionaire financier George Soros a domestic terrorist and strip him of all of his assets. American political analyst Jim Hoft explained to Sputnik Radio why Americans are so outraged with the 87-year-old investor. Thousands of Americans continue to sign the petition, which calls on the US government to declare billionaire George Soros a domestic terrorist and strip him of all of his assets. It has reached the threshold needed for an official response by the White House. In the petition, the activists accuse the investor of trying to “destabilize” the United States through organizations founded and sponsored by the … Continue reading →

Magnesium cream could be used as an alternative or in addition to medication to combat high blood pressure, a study has found. It could be promising news for the millions of people who suffer from hypertension, which raises the risk of heart disease, stroke and vascular dementia. Scientists know that people with higher than average blood pressure can be deficient in magnesium, which is thought to help the body to regulate blood flow. Now a new study has found that topical application absorbed through skin significantly boosts levels of the mineral in the blood. Approximately 75 million adults in the US … Continue reading →

Earlier this month, famous investor Marc Faber reiterated something we’ve long told our readers: You need to own gold. And you need to own it now. Especially in the face of cyberterrorism. In a recent interview with Metal Masters, Faber noted that the biggest geopolitical risk for Americans today is not a conventional war, but rather cyberattacks that could take down the entire U.S. power grid. If that were to happen, noted Faber, gold would become an “irreplaceable medium of exchange.” “It’s good to have a diversified asset outside of the banking system and not financially related,” said Faber. That way, if cyber hackers did go … Continue reading →
