The failed case against TrumpAndrea Widburg: At least one criminal case that Democrat activists filed against Trump may be ending with a whimper. You may recall that there's a criminal fraud case against Trump in Manhattan. To the New York Times' manifest despair, it seems that there is no evidence of an actual crime. Things are so bad that two of the lead prosecutors on the case quit when the district attorney expressed serious doubt in the case. In 2018, Cyrus Vance, Jr., Manhattan's then–district attorney, charged the Trump Organization and its chief financial officer, Allen Weisselberg, with tax fraud a... read more

Putin aggression tied to the price of oilVictor Davis Hanson: For all his caginess, dissimulation, and opportunism, Vladimir Putin is more or less predictable. Putin’s aims? The Russian president’s two-decade dilemma has been how to reclaim the prestige and power of the former Soviet Union—but with only 75 percent of his country’s former territory and 140 million fewer people. When does he strike? First, Putin moves on neighboring former Soviet republics when the world price of oil is high, and his coffers are full. So he went into Georgia in 2008 and into Eastern Ukraine and Crimea in 2014 when he thought he had the ... read more

Aussies going all in on Big Green?Viv Forbes: No country on Earth relies entirely on wind and solar energy, but Australian politicians aim to achieve this miracle. They are leaders in the Stampede of the Green Lemmings. Solar energy has a huge problem. Even on sunny days, almost nothing is generated to meet the demand peaks around breakfast time and dinner time — the solar energy union only works a six-hour day, goes on strike with little warning, and takes quite a few sickies.

The table was nicely laid for it over many years, including, by the way, Mr. Trump’s vaunted gift of weaponry to Ukraine, which enabled and emboldened the Kiev regime to harass the Russian-speaking population of Donbas without relent.

The Face Of Fascism
Donald Trump tells a Big Lie. Vladimir Putin tells a Bigger Lie -- which is what all fascists do. Andrew Nikkiforuk writes: Whenever asked about his historical or philosophical influences Putin cites an obscure Russian fascist by the name of Ivan Ilyin. Born into a noble family in 1883, Ilyin embraced white fascism as a response to Red fascism, also known as Bolshevism. Ilyin openly admired both Mussolini and Hitler and dreamed of a fascist Europe. Not surprisingly he remained a forgotten Russian émigré who died in Switzerland in 1954. In his writings, Ilyin consistently advocated... read more

Navy Working to Integrate New Mine-Hunting Technologies and Platforms*Kris Osborn* *Naval Mines, United States* The use of drones and unmanned systems is critical for finding and destroying naval mines that can be used to deny access to an area. Naval mines can damage or destroy ships and submarines, but their mere presence can also be used to deny access to areas for enemy forces. Mines can be tethered to the ocean floor to explode on impact, linger just beneath the surface, or be buried beneath the bottom of the ocean and set to detonate by undersea soundwaves. Areas that have been mined are often considered too dangerous for manned platforms to... read more

The narrative that the United States must protect Ukraine's democracy at any cost is prevalent throughout the mainstream media, particularly notable in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom.
