Trump n’ Pelosi Palooza: a Circus of Platitudes and Buffoons
A couple of days ago, Donald Trump and Mike Pence sat down with Nancy
Pelosi and Chuck Schumer to discuss their respective agendas. Within short
order, the meeting devolved into a most infantile temper tantrum as Trump
jostled with Pelosi and Schumer while Pence sat almost motionless as though
he was guarding Buckingham Palace. This embarrassing show of finger

Get This: California to Consider Taxing Text Messages in 2019

(an ancient ceremonial dance of the Māori) alongside his children and local

At the recent G-20 summit in Argentina, President Donald Trump and Chinese
president Xi Jinping reached a temporary truce, tapping the brakes on an
escalating trade war, and opening a negotiating window to deal with major
structural issues in the U.S.-China economic relationship. Despite this

VIDEO: Watch This Reporter Almost Get Run Over By A Russian Tu-160 Bomber
*Task and Purpose, Jeff Schogol*
*Security, *
PROTIP: it is not a smart idea to walk on an active runway as planes are
taking off or landing.
A Russian reporter nearly got her head taken off during a live shot of a
Russian TU-160 bomber landing in Venezuela.
Maria Finoshina of Russia’s RT cable news network was standing on the
runway as one of the two bombers sent to Venezuela was about to touch down.
As she walked toward the landing aircraft, one of the bomber’s wings
narrowly passed above her head.
“Wow! Spectacular,” Finoshina yelled ecstatically as she made a tactical

*Editor’s Note*: The following is an excerpt from the new book *On the
Brink: Trump, Kim, and the Threat of Nuclear War* by Van Jackson. You can
purchase the full version here.
*North Korean Strategic Thought:*
Before turning to the evolution of Obama-era strategy toward North Korea,
this chapter offers an essential primer on how North Korea thinks about
coercion and its nuclear weapons—to the extent that we know—and the kinds
of dangers that arise therefrom. Some of what we know abo... more »
How North Korea Would Wage War Against America (Think Underground Air Bases)
*Kyle Mizokami*
*Security, Asia*
And much more.
*Pyongyang’s eventual defeat in any wartime scenario is a given, but its
underground headquarters, fortifications and troop depots have the
potential to not only enhance the Korean People’s Army’s ability to mount a
surprise attack, but also to prolong the war, confounding the high-tech
armed forces of its adversaries.*
North Korea, one of the most secretive countries in the world, is no
stranger to building underground military facilities. Whether a tunnel dug
under the demilitarized zone designed to pass thousands of troops an h... more »
Meet North Korea's 200,000 'Commandos' (And Their Quite Dangerous)
*Kyle Mizokami*
*Security, Asia*
We explain their evolution.
*Of North Korea’s two hundred thousand “commandos,” approximately 150,000
belong to light infantry units. Foot mobile, their frontline mission is to
infiltrate or flank enemy lines to envelop or mount rear attacks on enemy
forces. North Korea’s hilly terrain lends itself to such tactics, as does
the network of tunnels that the country has dug that cross the DMZ in a
number of places.*
One of the most vital parts of North Korea’s war machine is one that relies
the most on so-called “soldier power” skills. North Korea h... more »

Probiotics For Bipolar Disorder? The FDA Really, Really, Really Has Not Evaluated That Claim
As many as three million Americans, an alarming one percent of the U.S.
population, get a diagnosis of bipolar disorder each year. That is a
fantastic amount, bordering on unbelievable, 12,000X as many gun murders
that will occur.
If being "bipolar" is over-diagnosed then it may well be that something as
simple as yogurt will fix it. And that is the claim of a pilot study
unveiled today at the American College of Neuropsychopharmacology meeting -
people who suffer damaging shifts in moods, from mania to depression, may
not need expensive, antipsychotics, depressants or even therapy... more »

Wanted: Candidates To Take On Top 2020 Congressional Targets
Before we even get to 2020, there are likely to be some special elections--
maybe very quickly. Mark Meadows could take the White House chief of staff
job, although his blood red North Carolina district, the 11th, is not
competitive and would be an utter waste of resources for the Democrats. Go
a bit to the east, to NC-09, and there's a very different kind of district,
one that is trending purple and where a Democrat *can*. Now that Mark
Harris has been exposed as a vote thief, it's unlikely he'll ever be seated
in Congress and even he's talking about a new election. It's a shame t... more »

Why Christians Should Embrace Free Markets, With Guest Fr. Robert Sirico
Daniel McAdams at - 8 hours ago
Why are there so many anti-free market attitudes among Christians? What
about the role of the state, as it takes for itself more and more the
traditional roles of religious charities? Are we doing better with health
care, poverty, homeless now with the state in charge than we did with
religious charities being involved? Acton Institute founder Fr. Robert
Sirico joins today's Liberty Report to discuss why free markets and
Christianity are a very good match:
