Συζητώντας με την Πάολα Ρεβενιώτη στην “Κατάσταση Πολιορκίας” του ΜέΡΑ-TV
Λίγες φορές έχω χαρεί συζήτηση όσο το περασμένο Σάββατο με την Πάολα Ρεβενιώτη, της οποίας η έντιμη, αγωνιστική, αντι-καταθλιπτική δράση μας δίνει δύναμη . Η εικόνα της Αθήνας των περασμένων δεκαετιών που μοιράστηκε μαζί μας ήταν ένα ακόμα “μπόνους”. Αν δεν την είδατε, δείτε την – δεν θα το μετανιώσετε.

How Ralph Waldo Emerson Influenced Leonard Read
Leonard Read was an astute observer of coercive political panaceas. And he frequently started his rebuttals by citing Ralph Waldo Emerson: “Cause and effect, means and ends, seed and fruit, cannot be severed; for the effect already blooms in the cause, the end pre-exists in the means, the fruit in the seed.” As we approach Emerson’s May 25 birthday, it is worth noting how his argument blooms in Read’s hands.

Joe Biden and the Black Vote – Man ‘O’ Man.
Submitted by M. A. Richardson…
To let Joe Biden run as presumptive nominee for the presidency is an insult to the American electorate and to the Constitution. It is an attempt to replace presidential authority with unelected centralised bureaucratic puppet masters, enabled and emboldened by the security state and big tech. It capitalises on the Kafkaesque system put in place by the Obama administration. It is the globalists dream and an American nightmare, a cloak so thick it is almost impenetrable. Centralised power without responsibility. -

New York Times Preaches Hatred of White People, Attacks US Military as White Supremacy
Paul Craig Roberts
In a Memorial Day editorial, the ignorant, white-hating editorial board of the New York Times wrote:
“Bases named for men who sought to destroy the Union in the name of racial injustice are an insult to the ideals servicemen and women are sworn to uphold – and an embarrassing artifact of the time when the military itself embraced anti-American values.” -

#DirectCashRelief
As the COVID-death toll surged past 100,000 this Memorial Day, Marianne Williamson recorded a new video in the home where's she's sheltering, a video based on the hashtag she's been promulgating for months.

Instead, our government is actually cutting back on its commitments to help our citizens cope with a calamitous economic crisis.

Girasole: Sunflower (How Language Is Learned)

But these were different— golden, star-petaled…serene; yet…eerie how they[Read More...]
