Pelosi becomes a threat to her own party?Charles C.W. Cooke: The Associated Press reports that, unchastised by Tuesday night’s rout, Nancy Pelosi plans to ready the House of Representatives for a “debate and vote on a revised draft of President Joe Biden’s now-$1.85 trillion domestic policy package.” The decision, the AP suggests, is intended to “show voters the party can deliver on its priorities.” That’s one way of putting it, certainly. Another might be: Nancy Pelosi hopes to appease the progressive wing of her caucus by sending her most vulnerable members unarmed into the Somme. Substantively, what Pelosi is propos... read more

Google a 'threat to democracy'Washington Examiner: Never before has a single entity had so much control over so much information as Google does today. The threat it poses to democracy is unprecedented, and the methods it has used to attain that power are at best unfair and perhaps illegal. The people need to take power back from Big Tech, and the Journalism Competition and Preservation Act is the best hope to start doing so. Google was just one-tenth of its current size when it bought an online advertising company called DoubleClick in 2007. At the time, DoubleClick acted as a middleman between advertisers w... read more

Anatomy of a Democrat political fraudAndrew McCarthy: Special counsel John Durham’s indictment of Igor Danchenko, the principal source for the bogus Steele dossier used by the FBI as a basis for the Trump-Russia investigation, further illustrates that Durham has his sights set on the Clinton campaign. Danchenko has been charged with five counts of lying to the FBI in interviews during 2017, as the bureau struggled in futility to verify outlandish allegations that Donald Trump and his campaign were clandestine agents of the Kremlin. Those allegations were compiled in the so-called Steele dossier, which the FBI relie... read more

It's nice to be right about IvermectinEarlier in the week, I posted an article in which I postulated that the widespread use of Hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin in Africa to treat *other* diseases was inhibiting the spread of COVID-19 in that continent. Thanks to a comment by reader Nahanni on another post yesterday, I was led to an article at NOQReport titled "Shocking Conclusions from Africa Study Expose Why Big Pharma’s Puppets are Suppressing Ivermectin Data". It predates my article, but I hadn't been aware of the study until Nahanni drew it to my attention. In so many words, the long article confirms my hyp... read more

Are Sanctions Curbing North Korean Arms Proliferation?*Mark Episkopos* *North Korea Sanctions, Asia* There is no shortage of proxies interested in buying North Korean weapons. *Here's What You Need To Remember:* North Korea’s continued success in growing and expanding its illicit arms trade is perhaps the starkest illustration of a trend that has long drawn the alarm of Korea experts: the international sanctions regime has proven largely toothless. North Korea (DPRK) is sometimes described as an ‘autarky,’ or economically self-reliant state, but this label belies some of the core workings of the North Korean economy: among them, a v... read more
