An astonishing piece appeared in the New York Times (NYT) recently.  It reported a fierce bias in the Times’s coverage of politics and current affairs, most notably when it comes to Donald Trump.  The bias turns up not just in the opinion pages but in the News, reports Liz Spayd, the new “public editor,” a position once called the ombudsman. But the surprise does not end there.  Spayd’s report is based on letters from liberal readers, which are filling her inbox to overflowing.  Here are some examples that she cites: “You’ve lost a subscriber because of your relentless bias against … Continue reading →

Saving someone who is drowning is more difficult and dangerous than many people think (heck, even realizing someone is drowning is hard — the signs don’t look like you think they would.) A person who’s drowning can be panicked and clutch, kick, and grab at you as you try to rescue them, dragging you both underwater. And simply carrying someone through the water to safety who isn’t fighting you is more physically arduous than you’d imagine. For this reason, the first recourse to saving a drowning victim should be to extend a rope, oar, or stick to them from the shore, … Continue reading →

Nobody wants to find himself or herself stuck on the side of the road for any reason, but if you drive in major metro areas, odds are good you see it on a daily basis.  I am a sucker for people who look like they need help and have stopped many times to see if I could assist.  The last time I did this, the driver had been in a hurry and ran out of gas in a fairly new car.  He asked if I could give him a lift to a gas station and I asked him if he’d … Continue reading →

My last article about the threat of a nuclear war generated a lot of responses. People certainly aren’t comfortable with the United States government having this kind of life-and-death control over their lives. In fact, they have had this type of control over us for quite some time now. The United States government parades the ultimate Orwellian hypocrisy before the eyes of the world with this “freedom” label that has less truth to it than a bogus weight loss plan. The United States government has the power to use nuclear weapons when it sees fit to do so without any … Continue reading →

Is this the reason why Mark Carney went Full “shock-and-awe”-tard this morning? Households may have started to hoard their cash, with new figures showing that the amount of money being kept outside Britain’s banking system is now rising at the fastest rate since the financial crisis. As Sky News reports, in the weeks following the EU referendum, the rate at which households and businesses built up holdings of UK banknotes and coins rose above 8% a year for the first time since 2009, according to a Sky News analysis of Bank of England statistics. The growth rate of cash in … Continue reading →

Actor Clint Eastwood has backed Donald Trump over Hillary Clinton in the upcoming presidential election and bemoaned the current ‘p***y generation’ of political correctness. Eastwood, 86, stopped short of outright endorsing The Donald, but in an interview in Esquire magazine he praised the Republican presidential candidate for being ‘on to something’. In the interview published Wednesday, the actor-director hailed Trump as a foe of political correctness and ‘the kiss-ass generation.’ ‘We’re really in a p***y generation. Everybody’s walking on eggshells,’ the 86-year-old said. ‘We see people accusing people of being racist and all kinds of stuff. When I grew up, those … Continue reading →

The collapse of asset inflation will implode all the fiscal and financial promises based on ever-inflating assets. Yesterday I explained why Revealing the Real Rate of Inflation Would Crash the System. If asset inflation ceases, the net result would be the same: systemic collapse. Why is this so? In effect, central banks and states have masked the devastating stagnation of real income by encouraging households to take on debt to augment declining income and by inflating assets via quantitative easing and lowering interest rates and bond yields to near-zero (or more recently, less than zero). The “wealth” created by asset … Continue reading →

Note: This is an excerpt from The Impeachment of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton for High Crimes in Syria and Libya, by Michael Ostrowski and James Ostrowski (2016). ************* American intervention in the Middle East did not start in Libya and Syria in the last five years. World War I marks the beginning of American involvement in the Middle East.   The Ottoman Empire had ruled the Middle East for about 600 years.  It is difficult to find evidence the Middle East was a major problem for the United States while it was ruled by the Ottomans. The first American intervention in the Middle East in modern … Continue reading →

[Classic: April 8, 1999] — As he ordered the bombing of Kosovo, Bill Clinton assured the nation that he has been “reading up on the history of that area.” That’s a load off! The great war-time presidents have always realized that before you bomb a country, you should read up on it. Clinton described the decision as “a moral imperative.” He shouldn’t use the word “moral” without blushing; but then, as we learned last year, he doesn’t blush easily. With Clinton, there is no such thing as a moral imperative. There is only what’s good for Bill Clinton. And he … Continue reading →
