[ad_1] On the fifth anniversary of Brownstone Institute’s founding, Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) released the diaries of Anthony Fauci during the Covid years until his retirement. They were written on government computers with the assistance of aides, so in no way are they private. They belong to the public, though it’s my judgment that it was intended to be notes toward an autobiography.  Reading them carefully (1,100 pages but in book form it would be twice that long) took me almost a full week. It is a look inside the state/corporatist system possibly without precedent. It doesn’t provide the entire picture of…

[ad_1] It was mid-November 2028, and American democracy was hanging by a thread.  Democratic Gov. Wes Moore of Maryland was the president-elect, barely. He had won five key swing states by less than 1 percent each. The current occupant of the White House, his political party, and the broader nationalist-conservative movement disputed those results amid unproven allegations of widespread voter fraud in major cities. Dark clouds loomed. The vice president, who had been Moore’s opponent in the election, was preparing to reject electors from swing states in a potential execution of the power grab that was attempted after the 2020…

Rotten food, no room in the incoming missile shelters, confiscation of alert notification devices for incoming missiles (cellphones), infrequent mail, jumping off aircraft carriers, overflowing toilets. Rotten food, overflowing toilets into bunking areas, no room in the incoming missile shelters, confiscated cellphones that are the notification devices for incoming missiles, infrequent mail, social media closed down, were some of the issues that military families identified at the national conference of Veterans For Peace.

[ad_1] Reform UK leader Nigel Farage regained his seat in Parliament on Friday after decisively defeating comedy candidate Count Binface in a special election. Farage had resigned his seat this July amid a parliamentary investigation into an undeclared £5 million (roughly $7 million) donation from a crypto billionaire. Farage has said he wanted to prove that he retains voters’ support by winning the seat back. Farage contends that the donation, provided by Reform UK patron Christopher Harborne, was a personal gift intended to fund his ongoing security and not a political donation, rendering it exempt from normal reporting requirements. The…

[ad_1] Image by Barbara Burgess. Immigrants have been horribly mischaracterized by shameful deceiving politicians looking for cheap political gains, an American tragedy happening right under all our noses. It’s a horrible mistake that’s destined to hurt America’s economy and Wall Street. America’s economy cannot function very well without immigrants. Currently, the US economy is threatened with contraction by loss of immigrant entrants. This will cripple the economy. One of America’s best kept secrets: Immigrants are among America’s most productive resources and a bonanza for growth. Immigrants strengthen America. Immigrants Contribute $14.5 Trillion Fiscal Surplus to US Economy According to Brookings…

[ad_1] BEN SHAPIRO: I spent yesterday going to New York, talking business with some of the most successful and brilliant businesspeople in America. You know what my main takeaway was?America kicks ass. America is great. This is a great country. I know we are all supposed to be demoralized and upset, and we’re all supposed to believe and claim that no one anymore has any shot at getting ahead in America, that the American dream is dead.We need something brand new — by which most people mean some idea that was tried centuries ago, for centuries, and then failed over…

[ad_1] Energy Secretary Chris Wright has repeatedly denied that politics were involved in the termination of more than 280 grants last October. A court filing made public in July, however, shows that Energy Department lawyers admitted that the only reason why those awards and not others were canceled is that the grant recipients were in states that vote for Democrats. Wright and the department have maintained that political considerations did not factor into the original selection of grants for termination, which included awards in both blue and red states for clean energy or energy efficiency projects. But in terms of…

[ad_1] There’s something primordially satisfying about watching a big-screen dinosaur get the what-for from the business end of a just-loaded shotgun. The recent run of Jurassic Park movies sometimes seems to have lost this primal pleasure, replacing it with ho-hum computer-generated spectacle and cheap nostalgic callbacks to the franchise’s better days. They’ve forgotten that the franchise was founded on a combination of awe and white-knuckle terror—the raw and relatable fear of a giant, toothy monster that stalks the earth with a sort of evolutionary arrogance that comes from a couple million years atop the food chain. Newsflash: Humans rule the…

[ad_1] Jessica Corbett Common Dreams Democrats in both chambers of Congress this week have joined rights advocates in forcefully denouncing plans for US Immigration and Customs Enforcement to spend up to $20 million on “gloves that can deliver painful electric shocks.” The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on Monday published a notice about buying thousands of Generated Low Output Voltage Emitter (GLOVE) devices from Kentucky-based Compliant Technologies, drawing media coverage and condemnation. “$20 million of taxpayer money for electric shock gloves?! This is horrifying and infuriating,” said Sen. Jacky Rosen (D-Nev.). “It’s exactly why so many… Democrats voted against billions of dollars in additional funding for ICE.…
