ECONOMIC DETERMINISM, IDEOLOGY, AND THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION (1974)

It is part of the inescapable condition of the historian that he must make estimates and judgments about human motivation even though he cannot ground his judgments in absolute and apodictic certainty. If, for example, we find that Nelson Rockefeller made a secret gift of $650,000 to Dr. William J. Ronan, we can choose to interpret Rockefeller's motivation in one of at least two ways: we can conclude, as did that eminent student of contemporary politics Malcolm Wilson, that Nelson made this and similar gifts purely as "an act of love"; or we can conclude that some sort of political *quid pro quo* was involved in the transaction. In my view, the good historian (1) cannot escape ...
America's Radical Revolution

Especially since the early 1950s, America has been concerned with opposing revolutions throughout the world; in the process, it has generated a historiography that denies its own revolutionary past. This neoconservative view of the American Revolution, echoing the reactionary writer in the pay of the Austrian and English governments of the early nineteenth century, Friedrich von Gentz, tries to isolate the American Revolution from all the revolutions in the western world that preceded it and followed it. The American Revolution, this view holds, was unique; it alone of all modern revolutions was not really revolutionary; instead, it was moderate, conservative, dedicated only to preserving ...

A federal judge in Wyoming blocked a school district from hiding students' gender identities from their parents. Chief Judge Scott Skavdahl of the U.S. District Court of Wyoming issued the preliminary injunction Friday in a lawsuit brought by Sean and Ashley Willey, who asked the judge to block Sweetwater County School District No. 1 from enforcing a policy requiring district staffers to call students by their preferred names and pronouns, and to respect the students' "privacy," the Cowboy State Daily reported.

The American Revolution and Classical Liberalism
Post Date: 2023-07-04 00:40:48 by Charles_Byrd

The libertarian creed emerged from the "classical liberal" movements of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries in the Western world, specifically, from the English Revolution of the seventeenth century. This radical libertarian movement, even though only partially successful in its birthplace, Great Britain, was still able to usher in the Industrial Revolution there by freeing industry and production from the strangling restrictions of State control and urban government-supported guilds. For the classical liberal movement was, throughout the Western world, a mighty libertarian "revolution" against what we might call the Old Order—the ancien régime which had ...
Modern Historians Confront the American Revolution

The historian must be more than a chronicler, a mere lister of events. For his real task is discovering and setting forth the causal connections between events in human history, the complex chain of human purposes, choices, and consequences over time that have shaped the fate of mankind. Investigating the causes of such a portentous event as the American Revolution is more, then, than a mere listing of preceding occurrences; for the historian must weigh the causal significance of these factors, and select those of overriding importance.

Progressive House Democrats are calling for an overhaul of the Supreme Court after recent rulings on gay rights, affirmative action, and student debt forgiveness. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., told CNN on Sunday: "The courts, if they were to proceed without any check on their power, without any balance on their power, then we will start to see an undemocratic and, frankly, dangerous authoritarian expansion of power in the Supreme Court.

Some of you no doubt have been waiting anxiously for my diatribe focusing upon Tom Friedman’s latest column in the NY Times. Tom is the self- important, know-it-all NYT opinion writer who irritates me the most. Well here it is… I’m on another “research” trip in Europe, to soak up as much western civilization as I can before it further self-destructs into quasi-oblivion under the baleful influence of America—or more precisely, in thrall to the crusading crackpots who have hijacked America.

Has the Criminal Biden Regime Utterly and Totally Corrupted Medicare?

We are constantly told we cannot afford Social Security and Medicare. Fighting Russia in Ukraine is more important than the survivability of the American population. I doubt anything can wake up the ignorant insouciant American population, but perhaps the Biden regime’s rip-off of Medicare in the interest of Big Pharma profits can introduce some reality into American consciousness.

In this video, Peter discusses Ray Dalio's recent article in Time Magazine, where he warns that the world is on the verge of great disorder. Dalio, the founder of Bridgewater and a prominent hedge fund manager, pays attention to historical parallels and highlights three alarming trends that haven't been seen since the 1930s. These include soaring debt and inflation, historical gaps in income and wealth, and great powers flirting with the possibility of a world war. Dalio raises concerns about a potential major inflection point in the next 18 months that could lead to significant changes and even civil unrest. Click for Full Text!
Meanwhile in Other News… Ukraine Proxy War Is an Unmitigated Disaster for U.S./NATO

There will be hell to pay for the U.S. and European rulers who have staked everything on their nefarious ambition for “strategic defeat of Russia.” The Ukraine proxy war against Russia can be increasingly seen as a disastrous defeat for the United States and NATO. That stunning outcome should be making world headlines. Instead, the Western media spin machine is in overdrive about a failed mutiny in Russia, which on an objective scale of important events is relatively minor compared with the colossal U.S./NATO scandal.

Only 31% of those surveyed in the United States say they have confidence in their national government, placing it last of any of the G7 nations, according to a Gallup poll released on Monday. When Gallup first measured national confidence in governments worldwide almost two decades ago in 2006, the situation was exactly opposite, with the U.S. first among the G7 nations, as 56% of Americans expressed confidence in their national government.

Government Agents Routinely Entering Private Land Without Warrants

For many people, a central attraction of owning and living on a multi-acre expanse of land is the opportunity for complete privacy — to include freedom from the prying eyes of government. While most Americans might understandably believe the Fourth Amendment’s protection against warrantless searches covers all their property, a little-known 1924 Supreme Court decision — Hester v United States — says otherwise. The case struck a major blow against privacy rights, and government agents of all stripes have been exploiting the ruling ever since. Click for Full Text!

More Truth About World War II
Post Date: 2023-07-04 00:07:08 by Charles_Byrd
0 Comments
Last week I noted some facts that puncture the myth of the neocons who control the government that World War II was the “good war,” a battle of good against evil, that shows the need for perpetual war. We must fight Russia and China, they say: we don’t want another “Munich,” do we? The facts tell a different story. The war in Europe began after Britain and France declared war on Germany on September 3, 1939. These countries had issued a guarantee to Poland of its border with Germany, and Germany’s invasion on September 1 triggered the guarantee. As Murray Rothbard points out, the guarantee was a colossal mistake. There was no possibility Britain and France ...
In Less than 48 Hours, 2 Cops in the Same Department Arrested for Sex Crimes

A disturbing pattern of sexual misconduct has come to light within the Placer County Sheriff's Department, further reinforcing the already tainted image of America's security force. A deputy was arrested on suspicion of forcible rape and sodomy of an intoxicated person, marking the second arrest for a sex crime in the department within a mere 48 hours. This alarming pattern is not isolated to Placer County. According to the National Police Misconduct Reporting Project, sexual misconduct ranks as the second highest of all citizen complaints nationwide against police officers, at 9.3%. Shockingly, the study also found that the rate of sexual misconduct among officers was ...
