On the global stage it appears, with a few exceptions, that every nation is defining itself as an enemy of another nation – and an increasing number backing this with the build up of a force of arms. War is big business and fear is the great repressor of human resilience and resistance. So long as these two states dominate world affairs the globalist elite that provokes and finances them, retains complete control. This ‘elite’ has built its empire on an unprecedented appropriation and centralisation of global wealth which now includes the expansion and domination of artificial intelligence and related…

This morning Justice Alito entered an administrative stay (two actually) of the order of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit halting the Food and Drug Administration regulation allowing for the prescription of mifepristone via telemedicine. Mifepristone (aka RU-486) is used in combination with misoprostol as an abortifacient. The stays are in response to applications filed by mifepristone’s manufacturers, which I discussed here. Both orders–one in response to the application from Danco Laboratories, the other in response to GenBioPro–are identical. They are fairly pro forma, and indicate little about what the Court may ultimately do. They each stay the…

Three cruise ship passengers died and several others fell ill because of a suspected hantavirus outbreak.

The Trump administration is restoring the core value of equal opportunity to civil rights enforcement. It is eviscerating the race-baiting, intersectional policies of the Biden and Obama administrations, and giving substance to the Supreme Court’s unanimous decision in Ames v. Ohio Department of Youth Services (2025) that whites, men, and heterosexuals are not held to a higher standard in discrimination cases. This is a time for rejoicing, tempered by concern that the administration will not have time to complete its work, and that its reliance on executive orders, rather than legislation and consent decrees, will allow the next Democratic president…
