Doug Bandow discusses America's failing world empire and the "threats" posed by rival powers like Russia and China. These countries, of course, don't pose a plausible threat to the safety and security of citizens in the United States, but they do pose a very real threat to America's ability to control everyone else's affairs around the globe. Bandow thinks that the supposed "aggressive posturing" by Russia and China really represents fairly moderate steps to counter America's rather extreme policy of extending its empire right up to their borders, as the U.S. has done by pushing for NATO...
Hitman Kills Son of Judge Overseeing Deutsche Bank-Epstein Trial
Now that is some 100-level gangster sh*t right there. You might have thought a federal judge overseeing a case brought by the U.S. Department of Justice was untouchable. But you would be wrong. So did the bank have her son killed? Did Benjamin Netanyahu do it? Or was it Bill Clinton? Or Her Highness's Royal Hit Squad? Think the judge got the message? Did you? Update: okay, well, who knows? -- "authorities" now say the murderer was a lawyer with a parochial grievance. Could be. He's also dead, so there's no asking him.
Colin Powell 17 Years After Lying Us Into War: ‘Boo Hoo. It’s Someone Else’s Fault’
Will this most political general's self-promotional PR tour ever end? You are a guilty war criminal, Colin. It's not just your obituary. Your gravestone will say so too.

Forever. Always. Guilty. So go ahead and shut the hell up right now and just be thankful that the "law" in this country doesn't apply to you and you get to die near family in your...

Well Steve, Taylor might have made a compelling witness if she'd lived (or That's Why They Call It "Murder").

7/16/20 Kelley B. Vlahos on the Dangerous National Security ‘Blob’ Dominating American Government
Kelley Vlahos talks about prominent Democratic national security official Michele Flournoy, whom she calls "The Queen of the Blob." The Blob, explains Vlahos, is the group of politicians, advisors, lobbyists and pundits who advocate for the continuation of America's foreign policy status quo—often greatly enriching themselves in the process. The ideology behind their position, she and Scott speculate, is probably based on the idea that these policies are actually good for the United States and the rest of the world, and that if they can benefit personally, that's just an added benefit. But...
