No matter how much you hate the credentialed media, you do not hate them enough!

When it comes to posts on Twitter, I have gotten away from doing the easy thing and embedding them to taking screenshots and then embedding the links to them. I use them for illustrations on my site, because tweets are not copyrighted, and because they serve as a permanent record. Well, apparently Bethany Allen, whose …

The Cognitive Coup de Main of America

I write these articles to sound the warning to our national security leaders. We are in the midst of a major war, taking place both domestically and globally. It is a Cognitive War for which our leaders remain unaware, unprepared, and unarmed. I hope you will read and pass this onto others, members of Congress, or members of our national security apparatus and this Administration. My warning remains unanswered!

Mao Zedong’s leadership from 1949 until his death in 1976 reshaped China’s political, social, and economic landscape in profound ways. Central to Mao’s vision was the concept of the People’s Democratic Dictatorship, a term he used to describe a communist political system based on Marxist-Leninist principles adapted to Chinese conditions.

Weaponized Chaos: How Unpredictability Became America’s New Deterrent

We’ve seen this movie before, and the lesson was written in blood during the Vietnam War. The United States didn’t lose because it ran out of bombs, bullets, or body armor. It lost because it ran out of public will. The battlefield shifted from the jungle to the living room, and once the American people stopped believing, the strategy collapsed under its own weight. Since then, every adversary worth their salt—from insurgent groups to near-peer competitors—has studied that vulnerability like it’s the Rosetta Stone of defeating the United States: fracture the narrative, erode domestic support, and time will do the rest.

Washingtonians: Which Grifters Will Receive YOUR State Income Taxes?

Democrats are now salivating over how they can steer most of the money into the operating budget to pay for an array of new services, programs and grifts. Watch for NEW NGOs to spring up across the state run by the Democrats’ cronies. Expect Somalis to get some of it.
