US National Security Advisor John Bolton Backs Terrorists
*March 31, 2018* (Tony Cartalucci - NEO) - Talk surrounding US President Donald Trump's move to appoint John Bolton as his new National Security Advisor has focused on Bolton's role in promoting the 2003 US-led invasion of Iraq and the profound contrast his appointment signifies in light of President Trump's 2016 campaign promises to "drain the swamp." However, Bolton's appointment carries with it greater implications both to those apparently criticizing him as well as those attempting to promote him. Bolton has - for years - lobbied for a terrorist organization guilty of kidnappin... more »
The Right Enemy
We all have enemies. It's a condition of life. Even in the semi-utopian socialist wet dream that was the book (and world) *1984*, the society was constantly at war. The prog enemy is "the rich", which is problematic because all of the prog leaders are "rich" by anyone's standards. They wear their pink hats and parade around holding signs displaying their reproductive organs and decry men, and "the rich", and whatever. h/t Woodsterman Then there are the Hogs who want to disarm all honest people in America.

"The True Measure..."
"Place yourself among those who carry on their lives with passion, and true learning will take place, no matter how humble or exalted the setting.

Chet Raymo, “The Mystery of Life? I Don't Know”
*“The Mystery of Life? I Don't Know”* by Chet Raymo “Albert Einstein said, "Theories should be as simple as possible, but no simpler." At first glance, this may sound like a Zen koan, or a paradox. In fact, it is a profound statement that says more than volumes of philosophy. But first, a bit of background. From the dawn of time, people have resisted saying "I don't know." They looked instead for explanations in tribal tradition, sacred books, or the supposed wisdom of shamans, priests and prophets. The most common cover-up for ignorance is to invoke divinity.

After all the opinions have been heard and every point of view has been considered, you finally find what you're after - the truth. But the truth isn't where it ends, that's just where you begin again with a whole new set of questions." - "Meredith", "Grey's Anatomy"

These Are the 5 Most Deadly (and Portable) Guns on the Planet
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, North America* They pack a punch when you consider their size. Firearms have a well-deserved reputation for appearing large and bulky. Long, thick barrels, heavy-duty receivers and banana-shaped external magazines often make firearms look burdensome to carry on a long trip, particularly by foot. Some firearms are designed for portability, or to combine two different functions within the same compact platform. The result are firearms that offer security and the ability to hunt or do a little plinking in the backcountry. *Ruger 10/22 Takedown Rifle* Fi... more »

Noah Feldman, THE THREE LIVES OF JAMES MADISON: GENIUS, PARTISAN, PRESIDENT
I have just finished reading Harvard Prof. Noah Feldman's remarkable book on James Madison. It deserves a wide readership. It is extremely well-written and full of insights. As the title suggests, it focuses on three facets of Madison's career, his role as one of at the chief designers of the U.S. Constitution (the "genius"); an important originator of the American party system (the "partisan"); and then America's first war-time president. The first part is likely to be least surprising to most con law buffs, though it certainly tells the story very well. Madison may have been ... more »
