Weaponizing Global Depression

Before we get started, I need to stipulate that I don't have an opinion one way or the other about weaponizing global depression: I don't agree or disagree, I don't "like" it or dislike it, I have no emotional investment in whether you "like" it or "dislike" it or if we agree or disagree. I'm addressing the topic because it's an interesting dynamic. The general assumption now is that everything is propaganda, i.e. that every shred of content has been stripped of the 90% of messy reality to leave the shiny 10% that protects someone's vested interests and emotional stake. While propaganda is indeed ubiquitous and overabundant, not ...
White House Believed ‘Economic Nuclear Weapon’ Would End Russian War in Ukraine

In the days after the invasion of Ukraine, the White House assessed President Vladimir Putin would end the attack if the US froze over $300 billion owned by the Russian central bank. However, the Washington-led economic war on Moscow has failed to have a major impact on the Russian economy. According to Bloomberg, in the immediate reaction to Russian forces invading Ukraine on February 24, 2022, the White House began to develop the "economic equivalent of a nuclear weapon" to use against Moscow. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan led the team that designed the sanctions on Moscow’s economy and froze $300 billion in assets of the Russian central bank. Click for Full ...

Earlier this year, on January 5th, the Idaho Supreme Court allowed three pro-life laws to go into effect. Last week the Justices “sharply questioned” attorneys for both sides—the state defending the laws, the ACLU challenging them. The laws were a near total abortion ban; a 6-Week Ban— the “Preborn Child Protection Act”; and a Civil Liability Law which “allows healthcare professionals who performed or induced an abortion in violation of the law to be civilly sued for attorney fees and statutory damages of not less than $20,000,” according to Skyler Lee.

Well it’s another big day for Democrats doing Democraty things. At a Friday event commemorating the 20th anniversary of the President’s Emergency Plan For AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) hosted by the George W Bush Institute, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi spoke glowingly of the president who instituted the program in 2003 at the same time he was preparing to launch an invasion which would inflict unfathomable horrors upon our world which continue to unfold to this day.

The Triggers of History

The London School of Economics has decided that it will not use dreadful words such as Christmas, Easter, Lent, and Michaelmas to designate its term times and holidays. Presumably, its management now congratulates itself that it has made a step toward true diversity, equity, and inclusion, the modern equivalent—irony of ironies—of faith, hope, and charity. An article in The Daily Telegraph was headed “The LSE’s decision is not just drearily woke. It’s completely pointless.” Alas, if only this were true, if only the decision were merely pointless; but on the contrary, the decision was extremely pointed. It was part of a tendency—I won’t go so far as ...

Russian President Vladimir Putin said Sunday that Moscow can’t ignore all of NATO’s nuclear capabilities since NATO leaders have been calling for Russia’s defeat. “In today’s conditions, when all the leading NATO countries have declared their main goal as inflicting a strategic defeat on us, so that our people suffer as they say, how can we ignore their nuclear capabilities in these conditions?” Putin said.

“While a majority of Americans believe abortion should be legal under at least some circumstances, some polls have found that abortions in the third trimester are more controversial.” Anna North, Vox.

Loss of Religious Belief Is a Greater Loss for a Civilized Society

There has been a noticeable decline in the percentage of Americans identifying as religious. Some perceive this seismic shift as evidence of a secularizing culture. In some quarters, the secularization of America is viewed favorably as an agent of modernization. But researchers are theorizing that the erosion of religious beliefs portends negative consequences for society because religion cultivates meaningful social relationships by nurturing a sense of community. Religious institutions hone social capital by fostering a strong sense of brotherhood that transcends tribalism. Religions also make it easier for societies to scale up by diminishing tribalism and promoting cooperation. ...
NBC Heavily Slants Toward Team Biden on Pill-Popping ‘Abortion Access’

On Saturday’s NBC Nightly News, they were divided on whether there was a “national divide” on abortion. They said the country was divided, but somehow NBC could only find six seconds for the pro-life view in a two- minute report. There is not much room for debate on this “News” network. All the liberal lingo was in use. Saturday anchor Jose Diaz-Balart began their press release for the Left: “Tonight, abortion rights activists are waiting on what could be the most consequential ruling on abortion access since Roe v. Wade was overturned. A judge in Texas could decide to pull a popular abortion pill off the market nationwide. Ali Vitali has more.” Click ...

Below is a worship service dedicated to “Reconciling in Christ Sunday”, a day when some congregations of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America celebrate all things LGBT. At minute 31 below you will hear an LGBT Lutheran pastor affirm all kinds of “gender identities” without a hint that the Bible teaches – and Christians have believed for 2000 years—that homosexual behavior is a sin. And the choir sings a hymn about “our queer siblings moving all about the earth”. I’ll say it again, this ain’t my grandma’s Lutheran Church. Click for Full Text!
Historic Year… Ukraine War Exposes U.S. Imperialism as Foremost Global Threat

The war in Ukraine is now entering its second year, having reached its first anniversary this week. On February 24 last year, Russian forces entered Ukrainian territory. The conflict has taken many twists and turns over the past 12 months. But there seems to be one inescapable, paramount development. The contours of hostility have emerged to identify the primary global threat – the United States and its zero-sum obsession with imperialist hegemony. Strictly speaking, the war in Ukraine is entering its tenth year because the origins of the conflict are traced to the coup d’état in Kiev in February 2014 sponsored by the American CIA and other NATO agents. The NeoNazi regime ...
Christians Can Change California's Politics & Culture: Kathy Looper

Christians in California and across America could quickly reverse the political and cultural tragedy that is unfolding IF they get active and involved, explained therapist and Christian author Kathy Looper in this episode of Conversations That Matter with The New American magazine's Alex Newman. Looper's new book, "Redeem California: With God All Things Are Possible," makes the case that it is not too late to turn the Golden State around, despite the escalating horror. Her organization, Redeem California, is working to promote the view that the church must stop being silent and must get active in elections, using biblical principles as the guide. If just a fraction of the ...

The Universality of the Southern Cause: The Confederacy and Naples

Some years ago (summer 1974) when I was completing a doctorate in history and political science in Europe, I made a journey south from Rome to the Italian city of Naples. Earlier, before traveling to Europe on a Richard Weaver Fellowship, I had managed to read two engrossing volumes on the Bourbon monarchy of the Kingdom of Naples by Sir Harold Acton. The old Kingdom of Naples (or of “Two Sicilies,” as it was formally called) had been conquered by the freebooter Giuseppe Garibaldi and his “Red Shirts,” in cooperation with the northern, liberal Italian Kingdom of Piedmont Savoy, in the early months of 1861. That resolutely traditionalist country, basically all of ...

In the 1960s Europe was European. Germany was German. France was French. Italy was Italian. The Netherlands were Dutch. Sweden was Swedish. Spain was Spanish. The distinct ethnic nationalities gave Europe a lot of diversity. Today all of these countries are towers of babel like the US and Canada. Even as recent as the beginning of the 21st century, immigrant-invaders accounted for only 1.6% of the Spanish population. Twenty years later immigrant-invaders are 15% of the population. Immigrant-invaders make up 26% of the German population. The immigrant-invaders concentrate in cities. According to this report in 2015 “44% of London’s population consisted of black and ethnic ...
The testimony of abortion survivors is incredibly powerful

Last week, we re-posted a story written by abortion survivor Melissa Ohden. The headline’s message is as powerful as it is, hopefully, transformative for many people: “I survived an abortion. I am far from the only one.” Melissa’s story reminded me of something that appeared at Clinic Quotes. This is Sarah Terzo’s indispensable site where she offers quotes from abortionists, women who’ve aborted their babies, and also commentary that illustrates the schizophrenia that is inherent when a baby is worthy of protection because she is “wanted,” disposable like refuse if she is not. We repost something from her site virtually every day, as we did today. ...
