The Media Said Europe 'Beat Back' COVID. But Now Lockdowns Loom Again
[image: undefined] In recent days governments in Australia, Europe, and the US have moved toward imposing a new wave of forced lockdowns in the name of fighting the spread of COVID-19. Australia has imposed harsh new lockdown measures, including a curfew from 8 pm to 5 am. CNN reports: Those restrictions include a curfew in Melbourne for the next six weeks, a ban on wedding gatherings, and schools must go back to online classes. ... Only one person per household is allowed to leave their homes once a day -- outside of curfew hours -- to pick up essential goods, and they must stay ... more »
P Is for Predator State: The Building Blocks of Tyranny from A to Z
[image: undefined] While America continues to fixate on the drama-filled reality show scripted by the powers-that-be, directed from the nation’s capital, and played out in high definition across the country, the American Police State has moved steadily forward. Nothing has changed. The COVID-19 pandemic has been a convenient, traumatic, devastating distraction. The American people, the permanent underclass in America, have allowed themselves to be so distracted and divided that they have failed to notice the building blocks of tyranny being laid down right under their noses by th... more »
The Importance of Resistance to Government Ordered Mask-Wearing
[image: undefined] The United States was once thought of as the country with rugged individuals. You left such individuals alone and they left you alone. The country was filled with such men and women. They appear to be mostly gone from America now. Stunningly few think or act for themselves. Governments in many parts of the land have ordered mask-wearing to "battle" a virus that is about as deadly to the average American under 80 as hay fever. The mask-wearing order has resulted in near 100% compliance in such areas as California. It is a sign of cowering submission to the stat... more »

The Domestic Legal Framework for U.S. Military Cyber Operations
Conventional wisdom holds that Congress has abandoned its duty regarding the government’s war powers. It is not hard to understand why. Between the agelessness and flexibility of the 2001 and 2002 Authorizations for Use of Military Force (AUMFs) and periodic unilateral uses of military force in Libya, Syria, and Iraq, the executive branch appears to act largely at its own discretion when it comes to conventional military operations. But matters are different in the cyber domain. With little fanfare and less public notice, Congress and the executive branch have cooperated effective... more »

Concerning the coverage of violence in Portland!
*WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 5, 2020* *The (black) police chief's tale:* Exactly one week ago, we asked an award-winning question. We asked if the Post and the Times, and our own cable stars, might perhaps be understating the amount of violence in Portland. More specifically, we asked about the amount of violence being committed by our own anti-Trump forces. We asked if we liberals might perhaps be receiving a sanitized version of that. Yesterday, the New York Times gave the Portland police chief his say. In our view, the Times did the right thing when it published his essay—and, so far, s... more »
Mutual Aid Unites NYC Neighbors Facing COVID-19
Nancy Perez, a 45-year-old resident of the Brooklyn neighborhood of Bedford-Stuyvesant, contracted COVID-19 in March. She stayed quarantined in her room for a month to isolate from her two sons and grandson. A few days before she got the virus, she'd met a volunteer with Bed-Stuy Strong — one of the many mutual aid groups around the country that have rallied to provide help in the face of the pandemic. Bed-Stuy Strong assembled an army of volunteers to help vulnerable neighbors with food deliveries and basic supplies. The post Mutual Aid Unites NYC Neighbors Facing COVID-19 appear... more »
Over 60 People Have Driven Their Cars Into Protesters Since May
At least 68 people have driven their cars into Black Lives Matter protesters since May 25. The incidents, most incited by civilians and some by police, represent an alarming trend in counter-protest violence against those marching in the streets. On foot, protesters are often defenseless against attacks by speeding vehicles; many have been injured and at least one person has died. Data collected since late May by Ari Weil, deputy research director at the Chicago Project on Security and Threats of the University of Chicago, shows that vehicle assaults on protesters are increasingly... more »
A Poll Tax By any Other Name
Robert Peoples remembers when African Americans won the right to vote in Alabama back in 1965. Though he was only 13 years old at the time, he had grown up in Mobile with a front-row seat to history as it was forged by a generation of ordinary Alabamians who won extraordinary political changes during the Civil Rights Movement. He knows how much was sacrificed and how much was gained, but that was another day. Today, more than 50 years after the passage of the Voting Rights Act, Robert Peoples cannot vote in the state of Alabama. The post A Poll Tax By any Other Name appeared first... more »
Mass Violations By US Police Of Protester’s Rights
On 25 May 2020, George Floyd was detained, tortured and extrajudicially executed by Minneapolis Police Department officers who restrained and suffocated him by holding him on the ground and kneeling on his neck for almost nine minutes. His death sparked widespread protests across the USA and the world and a long-overdue conversation about systemic racism and policing. Recent events have also raised longstanding concerns about violations of human rights, including the rights to life, to security of the person, to equal protection of the law, to freedom from discrimination and to fr... more »
Media Cover For US Clients’ COVID-19 Catastrophes
Back in March, when coronavirus cases were beginning to surge in the US and in South American allies such as Brazil and Ecuador, Washington was busy raising the alarm about the “expansion of Covid-19 pandemic in the region, if not globally, if Venezuela… fails to address it.” Venezuela was reporting under 150 cases at the time. This scaremongering propaganda has been repeated ad nauseam by the Western media ever since. Despite Venezuela’s comparatively low figures for deaths and infections, corporate journalists regularly smear the Maduro government’s “authoritarian” handling of ... more »
US Launches Missile Test Less Than 48 Hours Before Hiroshima Anniversary
Santa Barbara, CA – The U.S. Air Force launched an unarmed Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile Tuesday morning, August 4, at 12:21 a.m. PDT from Vandenberg Air Force Base. The missile traveled over 4,200 miles to the Kwajalein Atoll in the Marshall Islands. While Air Force Global Strike Command asserts that missile tests are scheduled years in advance, it is difficult to ignore the timing of this test – less than 48 hours before the 75th anniversary of the U.S. atomic bombing of Hiroshima.

Imperialist Iran Becomes Anti-Imperialist
The history of Iran in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries corresponds neither to the image that Westerners have of it, nor to the image that the official discourse of Iranians gives of it.

One of the theories being floated is that Scott M... more »

China & US Power
Can China do much to fight back against the power wielded by the US in the world economy? At first sight, that looks unlikely. China is big, but world trade is conducted in dollars, and the US has economic, political and military influence across the globe. The usual result of a tally of US might is that its position as hegemon is unassailable. But that would overlook how measures of its strength depend upon the world staying in the form that US power has created since 1945. If it doesn’t, then these will not count for as much. As one might expect, China has been responding to US at... more »

There are many similarities between Boris Johnson and Donald Trump. But they both possess one glaring trait. Each man is singularly ill-equipped to do his job. In the case of Johnson, Rafael Behr writes, he struggles with the job itself and with the wound to his ego from the discovery that governing is beyond his capabilities. He winces from that injury and tries to mask the strain in public with bluster.

The difficulty of trying defendants in the courtroom and not the media
Jeffrey Abramson Death penalty cases test the limits of our belief that defendants -- even despised defendants -- deserve trial in court, not in the press. Consider last week’s federal court decision throwing out Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev’s death sentence. The court acknowledged Tsarnaev’s admission of guilt for planting the deadly bombs near the marathon finish line. Nevertheless the court set aside the death sentence, since at trial the judge failed to adequately question jurors for bias created by pretrial publicity. The judge’s mistake was to let jurors certif... more »
The Absolute Laws of Economics
The laws of economics are absolute as the laws of physics and mathematics.

The success of a nation is directly proportional to the degree to which its government adheres to the laws of economics.
Ship construction: an economic canary in the coal mine
Canaries were carried into coal mines by miners for many years. Being far more susceptible to coal gas than humans, the birds would die quickly if the gas seeped into the workings, thereby alerting the miners to get out before they were overcome themselves. The expression "a canary in a coal mine" has come to mean something that indicates serious problems ahead. Orders for industrial plant and machinery have long had that status as far as the general economy is concerned. Shipbuilding is a harbinger of the health of world trade. Ships wear out, and must be replaced; and, in ti... more »

How the Navajo Suffered Thanks to America's Nuclear Weapons Build Up
*Zack Brown* *Security, * "Skimpy safety regulations led to widespread uranium contamination as Navajo communities bathed in water flushed from mines and even built houses out of irradiated material. The greatest single tragedy occurred in 1979, when a dam used by a uranium mill collapsed near Church Rock, New Mexico, releasing 94 million gallons of nuclear waste into the Puerco River and causing the third-worst radioactive disaster in history behind only Chernobyl and Fukushima." Sunny Dooley’s first brush with the atomic bomb came from her father. When she was in seventh gr... more »
Russia’s Okhotnik (Hunter) Stealth Drone Is Ready to Fly
*Peter Suciu* *Security, * The remote-controlled Okhotnik was unveiled at last year’s Army-2019 International Defense Exhibition outside of Moscow.

The Russian Ministry of Defense published a short video on YouTube that showed its new Okhotnik (Hunter) drone taking part in a test flight at a military airfield this past weekend. The timing of the release of the new twenty-minute video coincides with an announcement on Monday that serial delive... more »
A War on Terror: Why India Made Its Big Kashmir Move One-Year Ago Today
*Michael Rubin* *Security, South Asia* India’s actions did not arise from a vacuum. Prior to India’s decision to change Kashmir’s status, Pakistan-based terrorists regularly crossed into Kashmir and India more broadly to attack both security and government officials and ordinary civilians. One year ago today, Indian President Ram Nath Kovind formally revoked Article 370 of the Indian constitution which protected Kashmir’s special status. Indian security forces imposed a curfew on Kashmir in order to dissuade protests and unrest. Both Pakistan and many human rights groups reacted... more »

The Lightest Weight Rifle Today – Meet the Volquartsen Ultralite Modshot Rimfire
*Peter Suciu* *Security, Americas* [image: Volquartsen Firearms] This rifle, which is built to order, might just be among the very best rimfire on the market in any weight class. While some firearms manufacturers have made their name for offering big bore hunting rifles and shotguns, others have stuck to specialty products. The name Volquartsen Firearms may not be quite as iconic as Colt or Remington, but shooters of rimfire small arms certainly know the name. The company was founded in 1974—and like many of today’s firearm industry giants, it started small with an idea to improv... more »

Dreadnought, The World's First Real Battleship, Went From Elite To Obsolete In A Couple Years
*Robert Farley* *Security, * Dreadnought rendered the previous battleships of the world obsolete at a stroke. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *The notion that a warship could go from being the world class to obsolete in a decade (perhaps less, given how quickly new ships outclassed *Dreadnought*) is almost entirely alien to modern sensibilities. This essentially happened twice in the ten-year period between 1905 and 1915. State-of-the-art battleship armament in the late nineteenth century involved a mix of large- and small-caliber weapons. Naval architects believed that most... more »
THE MODERN AMERICAN NOVEL: The Post tears the lid off Franklin County!
*WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 5, 2020Let's start with that "town pool:"* Hannah Natanson prepped at Georgetown Day, then moved on to Harvard. She graduated from Harvard last year. This year, the Washington Post dispatched her to the wilds of Franklin County, Virginia, a place where the Klan still runs wild—or so it might seem from Natanson's novelized report. In last weekend's Franklin County Confidential, Natanson managed to cite the Klan three separate times. At one point, her editors even stooped to the point where they published this paragraph, using Natanson's name: NATANSON (8/1/20): S... more »

Changing the subject entirely... Tristan Kirk, courts correspondent of the *Evening Standard*, doesn't sound as if he's having a great day: Court hearing with a significant media interest - this is genuinely the set-up: Court refused to do a ticketing system & refused to set up a videolink for journalists despite everyone else in the hearing dialing in remotely.

Why is the #FakeNews media hiding the evidence that Bill Clinton went to Epstein's island
Recently unsealed court documents in the case of Epstein's pimp Ghislaine Maxwell indicate that Bill Clinton visited Epstein's island when two young girls were present. This doesn't prove that the account is true nor does it prove that Clinton preyed on underage girls. However we all know that the same Democrat propagandists, ie #FakeNews media types, who are studiously ignoring this story were eager to believe in a story that had Justice Kavanaugh attending multiple gang rape parties. Hundreds of women testified to how gentlemanly and respectful of women Kavanaugh while we know th... more »
The #FakeNews media is declaring that Joe Biden isn't mentally competent
Of course the Democrat propagandists who pretend to be reporters aren't actually saying that Joe Biden doesn't have the mental competence to be President. But they are saying that there should be no debates between Biden and Trump. Clearly either they think that Biden will be trounced by Trump or that there's a good chance that Biden will have a "kids loved to stroke my leg hairs moment". Never before have these propagandists condemns presidential debates. For good reason because debates give the voters a chance to see the candidates positions mostly unfiltered by the media. But f... more »
Christopher Steele; more Maxwell Smart than James Bond
The entire collusion narrative that Democrats have pushed to reject the results of the 2016 election was based on the Steele dossier. We were told that Steele was an ex-spy from England who had a network of sources in Russia and that he could be trusted that every claim in his now infamous dossier was correct. That's why the dossier was suitable for launching 4 different warrants to spy on the Trump campaign. The first indication that that wasn't the case was the fact that all of Steele's sources were anonymous. The second indication was that Steele told a British court that the c... more »
