American Police State

Laurie Laughlin, the lady from Full House, and her husband, clothing designer Something Mossimo, are being prosecuted by the feds for bribing their kid's way into USC. She now says the feds are hiding exculpatory evidence showing she thought the half-million was the same kind of "donation" to colleges that rich people give to get their kids in all the time. We should believe her and presume that the FBI and DoJ are guilty premeditated criminals unfairly persecuting her and her husband. Just a few weeks ago the feds announced that they were adding decades worth of charges to this couple for...

Disposable Heroes

When I was a boy Metallica was actually still a great band. I know that must sound unbelievable. Was there ever such a time? Yes. This was back in junior high, long before the Black Album and Metallica's dissent into the place of worst band in the history of the human race. This one was a heavy influence on me then. First song on the second side of Master of Puppets. For the 2,440-or so Americans killed in the Afghanistan war so far: "Disposable Heroes." Rock out with your troops out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCsH1g5ZESk

Only American to lead FBI and CIA says Trump presents ‘dire threat’ to country

Of course he does. He's a president of the U.S. government after all. But man, either the National Security State has the dumbest PR department in history or Trump has the most brilliant one. But he probably couldn't really afford to pay them what it would cost for boosts like these. Instead, they just don't get it. We hate them because of all of those things that they did. That's how he won in the first place, over their dead bodies. So what do they do? They run on Status Quo Ante 2020! At this rate they'll lose to the president they impeached. What a bunch of losers.

12/13/19 Sheldon Richman on Trump’s Loyalty to Israel

Sheldon Richman discusses America's relationship to Israel in the wake of President Trump's speech to Sheldon Adelson's Israeli-American Council. Trump has received criticism as being anti-semitic for saying that American Jews, particularly democrats, do not "love Israel enough." This is odd, says Richman, since usually allegations of anti-semitism are based on people claiming that American Jews might have a special loyalty to Israel. He laments the fact that nobody cares about consistent principle anymore, happy instead to resort to sophistry and persecution if they think it will be...

12/13/19 Nasser Arrabyee on the War in Yemen

Scott interviews Nasser Arrabyee about Yemen, where the U.S. continues to back Suadi Arabia in waging a war of starvation against the people of Yemen. Scott calls this the very worst thing our government is doing, and yet by and large the American people don't much care about it. Arrabyee says that Houthi leaders are beginning to talk with the Saudis through backchannels, which could be the first step toward a deescalation of the bombing and a reopening of airports, which would allow desperately needed foreign aid to get to the Yemenis. Nasser Arrabyee is a Yemeni journalist based in Sana’a,...

12/13/19 Peter Van Buren on the Attempted Deep State Coup Against President Trump

Peter Van Buren discusses the details of the Horowitz Report and gives a retrospective of the whole Russia conspiracy investigation into President Trump. Van Buren stresses that the Steele dossier—opposition research paid for by the democrats—was the only evidence presented by the FBI to the FISA courts in order to get warrants to surveil Carter Page. The FBI knew the research was questionable at the very least, but did not disclose that fact, and also misled the courts into thinking that their was corroborating evidence, which in reality was also based on the Steele dossier. And worst of...
