The Fed's raising of interest rates has big spenders in the government upset. Many years of near 0% rates have created the biggest bubble in history. The government and the people are saddled with historic debts. Of course, the big spenders want The Fed to crank the printing presses back up. This is the fate of central planning and attempting to control the economy. It cannot be done. Sound money and free markets are the only way out of this mess. Click for Full Text!

There has never existed any government so evil and repugnant that it has been unable to find lawyers, and particularly judges, to do its bidding. Hitler did not need to manufacture lawyers and judges. A very significant number, indeed the majority, of established and reputable German lawyers were prepared to participate actively in Nazi law, both its development and implementation.

In 1928, Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis characterized the values underlying the Fourth Amendment to the Constitution as embracing the uniquely American right, and the right most valued by civilized people, that he called the right to be let alone. Today, we call it the right to privacy. He also warned that the greatest dangers to privacy lurk in the slow and insidious encroachments upon it by zealots in the government. Click for Full Text!

Doctor says support for gender transitions drives youth suicides

A physician at a children’s hospital that offers cross-sex medical procedures to minors anonymously shared his concerns that the practice was driving children to suicide in an interview with Christopher Rufo for City Journal, a publication of the Manhattan Institute. The three core tenets of the theory behind medical gender transitions are that patients truly are whichever sex they say they are, that doctors should automatically affirm patients’ gender identity and that patients are more likely to commit suicide if they do not receive cross-sex medical interventions, according to the doctor. Other doctors have previously said the transgender suicide rate is exaggerated and warned ...

Ariel Maguire gathered together with other moms in her rural area of the Big Island of Hawaii to create a child-centered educational solution for local families. It was late 2021 and the parents realized that nearly two years of pandemic policies had left their kids behind both academically and socially. There weren’t a lot of child care or early-education options nearby. “The closest place to send our kids would be a little over an hour drive each way and it has a huge waitlist,” Maguire told me in a recent podcast interview. “We were all struggling because we’d been stuck at home with our kids without community for a couple of years and needed to get back to ...

Nigeria's new government may reform the country's energy sector to limit the state's role in the production and sale of oil and gas. According to Reuters, advisers to newly-elected Nigerian President Bola Tinubu recommended that the government reduce its stake in the state-run Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) to a minority position in order to raise $17 billion in revenue. The plan also proposes unifying Nigeria's multiple energy regulators into a single body, noting that "governance and regulatory concerns have eroded investor confidence, diverting private capital needed for the development of critical oil and gas infrastructure."

Study Blames Regulation for Lower Rates of Innovation

Economists have long linked higher levels of regulation with less innovation, and a soon-to-be-published study of French firms provides additional evidence to support what is now conventional wisdom. The study, a 2021 working paper that will soon be published in the American Economic Review, was conducted by economists Philippe Aghion and John Van Reenen of the London School of Economics and Antonin Bergeaud of HEC Paris. They used data from the French tax authorities from 1994 to 2007 to determine if regulation affects "the pace and nature of innovation" in firms "and if so, by how much?" Click for Full Text!

My guest today is Brendan O'Neill of Spiked, whose new collection of essays, A Heretic's Manifesto: Essays on the Unsayable covers heated topics such as attacks on J.K. Rowling by trans activists; dismissals of populist moments that gave rise to Brexit, Donald Trump, and Emmanuel Macron; and the refusal by elites to own up to their mistakes related to COVID lockdowns. I blurbed this provocative and irresistibly readable book, writing that "Brendan O'Neill is the reincarnation of Christopher Hitchens, a devil's advocate who is willing to always state his case clearly, convincingly, and courageously."

Why Are Scientists Boasting of Creating ‘Synthetic Human Embryos’?
Post Date: 2023-06-21 18:51:05 by Charles_Byrd

A scientist working in Cambridge and California has just announced that she and her colleagues have made a ‘synthetic human embryo’. They took a human embryonic stem cell line and used it to make what looks like an early human embryo. This ‘synthetic human embryo’ has been cultivated past the legal limit for experimenting on human embryos in the United Kingdom, which is 14 days. If this really is an embryo, and it looks a bit like one, then this is a new way of generating an embryo without fertilisation. If cells from an adult could be used, then synthetic embryos would be a new form of cloning. This would be wrong for all the same reasons that the old way of cloning a ...

The (apparent) advent of central digital currencies (CBDCs) in various countries around the world might be the once-in-a-lifetime chance for the International Monetary Fund (IFM) to move from influencing individuals’ lives – and sometimes all but financially controlling – their governments and economies – to doing it much more directly. In other words, the CBDCs are the one bandwagon that nobody should have expected the IMF to miss jumping on – and as the news now shows, the organizations is working on a “global platform” to help bolster the agenda of centralized, centrally-controlled digital money – that’s severely criticized by privacy, ...

Named for Juno, the Roman goddess of women, marriage, and childbirth, June remains one of the most popular months for weddings. Its temperate climate also wins accolades, as from poet James Russell Lowell: “And what is so rare as a day in June? / Then, if ever, come perfect days.” In our present age, June is also that “month-long observance in celebration of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer people.” With its rainbows and flags, parades and festivals, extensive media coverage, and sundry politicians, celebrities, and cultural gurus urging one and all to participate, Pride Month is here.
