Venezuela is America’s current target for mass destabilization in the hope of installing a puppet government. America has for years been waging an economic war against Venezuela, including debilitating sanctions which have dramatically affected the state’s ability to purchase medicines, and even mundane replacement parts needed in buses, ambulances, etc. Alongside the economic war there has been a steady propaganda war, but […]

The bottom line is that keeping the government out of parental leave is the only choice that is good for freedom, good for women, and good for the economy.
The recently concluded annual Policy Conference organized by AIPAC, the powerful pro-Israel lobbying group, demonstrated once again that both major political parties in the United States care more about advancing the interests of Israel and the organized Jewish community than advancing the interests of average Americans. Treason was on full display throughout the conference, as major political leaders across the political spectrum gave speeches denouncing “anti-Semitism” and anti-Zionism while praising the supposed “unbreakable” bond between America and Israel.
The other day I closed up this post: Russia Anti Regime Change Strategy for Venezuela- US Get Troops out of Syria, Then We'll Talk! with the paragraph below:
"It's called the Green New Deal. It envisions a carbon-zero economy by the middle of the century and a transformation of the American economy and, indeed, society. Some people call it a socialist monster; some people call it our only hope for survival in the way of life we hold dear." That was how Chris Hayes introduced Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the youngest woman to ever represent a district in the United States Congress, at the beginning of their Bronx town hall on the Green New Deal Friday evening.
Russiagate is dead. Long live Russiagate.
We have no doubt seen this statement broadcast; there is even a news / opinion piece in existence with a very similar title. The Narrative is dead! Long Live the Narrative! Its writer, James Howard Kunstler made an astute set of statements:
During this last week, most of the reaction from Russian news media to the conclusion of the Russiagate (hoax) investigation was rather factually based, simply with reports on what happened, and the reactions of people within the United States.
If you are a conservative Christian and you feel run down by the relentless onslaught of liberals and their looniness on your TV, in your music, in your children’s classrooms, in their public school restrooms…

Trump was howling at the wind all week. He hates the wind. The wind has been attacking that thing on top of his head for decades and he's been battling it near his golf resort in Scotland for many years.
They were the simple fools. Worse, were the propagandists who promoted the disgusting Steele dossier, a farrago of lies concocted by British intelligence and apparently promoted by the late John McCain and Trump-hating TV networks. One senses Hillary Clinton’s hand in all this. Hell indeed hath no fury like a woman scorned.

Our nation is being preyed upon by a military industrial complex that is propped up by war profiteers, corrupt politicians and foreign governments.
It seems that in our own success we have lost risk and responsibility. Without risk young people grow up overly sensitive and scared. They demand authority solve their problems. Without responsibility we become dejected and angry.
