How you may wind up paying for San Francisco’s reparations plan

“Play stupid games, win stupid prizes” seems to be the conservative response to San Francisco’s proposed reparation plan, which would dole out $5 million to each Black resident. After all, paying for this latest obsession of the radical left would transform the city into a bankrupt “21st century Detroit.” If you live in California, you’ve probably figured out that at least part of the bill would fall on your doorstep. However, Americans around the nation — including those in conservative states — would likely be on the hook for California’s radical reparations payouts, as well. San Francisco’s African American Reparations Advisory Committee ...
The "non-specific effects" of vaccination, or: How certain vaccines appear to have enduring influences on infections and mortality in the vaccinated unrelated to the viral infections they prevent

Viruses and their human hosts together form complex systems, which do not react in predictable ways to simplistic interventions. The entire pandemic has been an extended lesson in this truth. If our thought leaders weren’t such laughable cretins, they might’ve bothered to learn something from the fact that lockdowns don’t have any effect on virus mortality, that allegedly highly efficacious vaccines failed to do anything at all against the circulation of SARS-CoV-2, and that mask mandates – if they’re not merely worthless – now and then seem slightly enhance transmission.

How NATO states sponsored ICC prosecutor’s Putin arrest warrant

ICC prosecutor general Karim Khan raised millions from NATO states by crafting an arrest warrant for Vladimir Putin while freezing investigations into well-documented US and Israeli war crimes. Along the way, he won powerful friends in Washington, London, Kiev — and Hollywood. Karim Khan, the chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, stood before a podium on March 3, 2023, and issued an unusual qualifier: “Of course the prosecutor of the ICC does not, whatever affection and regard I may have for my dear friends in Ukraine – has no special affinity to any particular country. We’re not a party to any hostilities.” Click for Full Text!
President Biden Goes All Out (Falsely) on Gun Control Again

President Joe Biden wasted little time calling for gun control following the tragic murders of six innocent Americans by a mentally unstable person who was known to be a threat. Similarly, White House Spokesperson Karine Jean-Pierre demanded a litany of gun control in a press briefing following the tragedy in Louisville, Ky., before the basic facts of the incident were known. Less than two weeks after a transgender student shot her way into The Covenant School in Nashville, Tenn., the president tweeted his gun control call. Click for Full Text!
Trump touts authoritarian vision for second term: ‘I am your justice’

Mandatory stop-and-frisk. Deploying the military to fight street crime, break up gangs and deport immigrants. Purging the federal workforce and charging leakers. Former president Donald Trump has steadily begun outlining his vision for a second-term agenda, focusing on unfinished business from his time in the White House and an expansive vision for how he would wield federal power. In online videos and stump speeches, Trump is pledging to pick up where his first term left off and push even further. Click for Full Text!

The “Pentagon Papers’ is making the rounds as the big new event of the past couple of weeks. The controversy is over the ‘leaks’ of strategic briefing documents detailing US future plans for the war in Ukraine. I’ve watched this story unfold with a weather eye but wanted to wait to see how it would progress before commenting. I know, not going for the click-bait at the height of the anxiety-pimping is a rare thing these days. Click for Full Text!

The Washington Post tells us that President Macron’s China jaunt has created an European ‘uproar’. So it seems. Though on the face of it, his geo-strategic recommendation that Europe should keep equidistant from both the U.S. behemoth and the China colossus, is scarcely so very radical. Yet, whatever Macron’s underlying motivations, his comments seem to have touched raw nerves. He is accused of something approaching ‘betrayal’. The betrayal of America curiously – rather than a betrayal of ordinary Europeans. Perhaps the irritation reflects our habitual love of comfort, normalcy, and a desire to ‘not rock the boat’. This normalcy bias keeps ...

If as many posit the Federal Reserve has an unstated mandate to generate a "wealth effect" by propping up housing, they've managed to create a no-win situation. As longtime correspondent K.M. recently documented, roughly half of the 50+ million home mortgages in the US were refinanced in 2020 and 2021 to lock in historically low interest rates of less than 4%, with many around 3%.

On the menu today: Democrats are starting to tear their hair out because their Senate majority is partially nullified or impeded by the continued absence of California senator Dianne Feinstein. Their concern is worsened by the fact that Feinstein, who last voted in the Senate on February 16, has no estimated return date — and the fact that she agreed to an attempt to put a temporary substitute on the Senate Judiciary Committee is a de facto admission that she does not expect to return anytime soon. But Feinstein is just one of three elderly or visibly impaired lawmakers who are being less than fully honest with the public about their health and conditions. For a long time, people have ...

Transhumanism – Using Child Volunteers for Genetic Modification

The new obsession with transitioning seems odd. There are the ‘fake trans’; Dylan Mulvaney and Lia Thomas who have not had physical semi- permanent surgeries and appear to be using it as a means of success. There are the real Trans who just want to be left alone by the frenzy. And then there is experimental transitioning for medical professional training. For the experimental phase, children are the preferred volunteer because their bodies are nubile and their minds are so broadly indoctrinated they believe doctors are demi-gods. Genetic editing is the first course for the Transhuman cult. But of course they don’t want to be the guinea pigs for botched medical practices and ...
Antidefamation League Defames Substack Authors

In this upside-down, inside-out and backwards world we now live in, it shouldn’t be a major shock when the Antidefamation League (ADL) turns coattails and starts defaming people and spewing hate speech. Still, it does make one’s head spin a bit. The ADL was founded in 1913, with the mission of stopping “the defamation of Jewish people and to secure justice and fair treatment for all.” As stated on its website, “ADL is founded with the clear understanding that the fight against one form of prejudice cannot succeed without battling prejudice in all forms,”1 and to this day, the ADL “continues to fight all forms of bias.”2 Click for Full Text!

The consistently insightful Branko Marcetic has a new article out with Jacobin titled “After the Ukraine Documents Leak, Mainstream Media Is Missing the Story” about the way imperial narrative managers have been manipulating the discourse about the information released in the Pentagon leaks by Jack Teixeira. Marcetic criticizes the way mass media outlets like The Washington Post and The New York Times (who actually hunted down and outed Teixeira before the FBI even brought him in) have been dragging the conversation kicking and screaming away from the contents of the leaks into discussions about how bad leaks are and what a bad, bad man Teixeira is.

De-dollarization Has Begun.

Last week, China and Brazil reached an agreement to settle trades in one anothers’ currencies. Over the past 15 years, China has replaced the United States as the main trading partner of resource-rich Brazil, and as such that shift may have been inevitable. But within the context of recent circumstances, this appears to be another in a series of recent blows to the central role of the dollar in global trade. As the world’s reserve currency, the US dollar is essentially the default currency in international trade and a global unit of account. Because of that, every central bank, Treasury/exchequer, and major firm on Earth keeps a large portion of their foreign exchange holdings in ...
Grown man identifying as 'trans' exposed genitalia to 4 freshman girls

A Wisconsin school district allegedly failed to address parental complaints after an adult man, identifying as a woman, exposed his genitalia to four freshmen girls in a high school locker room, according to the Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty (WILL). After a swim unit in a March physical education class, four freshmen girls were showering in the locker room when an 18-year-old male student allegedly entered the changing area, announced he was transgender and then fully undressed in front of the students, according to WILL. Despite being notified of the “alleged sexual harassment,” Sun Prairie Area School District allegedly failed to address student and parental ...
Court allows abortion pill to remain widely available while appeals proceed

The Supreme Court on Friday night granted a request from the Biden administration and a drug manufacturer to put on hold a ruling by a federal judge in Texas that suspended the Food and Drug Administration’s approval of mifepristone, part of a two-drug protocol used to end pregnancies in their early stages. The battle over medication abortions, which account for over half of all abortions performed in the United States each year, now returns to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit, which is scheduled to hear oral argument in the case next month. The order means that the drug will remain widely available while litigation continues. Two justices indicated that they would have ...

This article looks at the factors behind the growing rejection of the dollar for trade settlement purposes by non-aligned nations around the world. They no longer fear political or economic reprisals from America. The dollar’s monopoly was notably challenged by Saudi Arabia, which removed itself from the US’s sphere of influence to that of China and Russia. Consequently, peace has broken out throughout the Arab lands. Click for Full Text!

Our Constitution’s premier amendment sanctioned the fringe New England organization NSC-131’s (National Social Club-Anti-Communist Action) small, short-lived April 1 demonstration in downtown Portland, Maine. The freedom to speak one’s mind and peaceably gather to express grievances are sacrosanct rights afforded to all Americans, even members of NSC-131.

Medicaid Expansion Exacerbates Opioid Crisis, Study Finds

ObamaCare’s Medicaid expansion, once touted as a solution to the opioid crisis, not only has failed to stem the crisis but may also be exacerbating it, claims a new study from the Foundation for Government Accountability (FGA). “Both politicians and policy experts hyped Medicaid expansion as an answer to rising overdose deaths. Others warned that any cuts to Medicaid would surely make the crisis even worse,” wrote the FGA’s Michael Greibrok and Sam Adolphsen. “However, seven years of data has not born this out.” Click for Full Text!
