2,200 Elite, Including Big Pharma CEO, Top Doctors, Movie Stars, Caught Buying FAKE Vax Certificates in Spain
As we reported last year, World Bank President David Malpass made a telling admission. In a nutshell, Malpass stated that Pfizer won’t go into countries unless those governments grant them immunity from any an all damages caused by their vaccine. If the country allows individuals or organizations to sue after Pfizer hurts them, Pfizer stays out. “Pfizer has been hesitant to go into some of the countries because of the liability problems, they don’t have a liability shield,” Malpass stated. Imagine the audacity it takes for a company who is ostensibly helping to stop a pandemic, t... read more
REPORT—For a U.S. Economic Recovery: A Third National Bank Now Indispensable
The argument of this Report and Workbook, conclusively established by the data presented below, is that the abolition of our current Federal Reserve System and the establishment of a Third National Bank *is absolutely indispensable*. It is impossible to rebuild the U.S. nation and economy otherwise. This report undertakes a comprehensive review of the physical U.S. economy—of both the current status, and the urgent needs of the most important components of that economy. It will identify the type and amount of investments now required to begin the process of rebuilding that economy... read more
It’s Here! Our Report on the U.S. Physical Economy: How to Build Our Way Out of Approaching Doom
LaRouche PAC’s Brian Lantz has written a detailed report covering the condition of life-critical sectors of the U.S. economy: Energy; Agriculture; Manufacturing; Mining; Infrastructure and Water; Advanced Research and Development; the state of our cities; and much else. If this nation is to survive the approaching economic hurricane, these are the sectors to which a Third National Bank of the United States, in conjunction with local and regional banks, must issue sufficient credit to ensure rapid revitalization and growth.

Europa: Catching Up with the Clipper
[image: Europa: Catching Up with the Clipper] I get an eerie feeling when I look at spacecraft before they launch (not that I get many opportunities to do that, at least in person). But seeing the Spirit and Opportunity rovers on the ground at JPL just before their shipment to Florida was an experience that has stayed with me, as I pondered how something built by human hands would soon be exploring another world. I suppose the people who do these things at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory itself get used to the feeling. For me, though, ... read more

Are We Entering the Next Phase of Our Medical Despotism?
One of the many things that continues to baffle me about the public response to all things Covid, is that the number of people demanding answers to the following questions is pitifully and inexplicably low: Who was behind the creation of SARS-CoV-2? Why were they making it? How and why did it get unleashed on the world? These questions should unite both those who believe with their whole heart that Lockdowns were necessary and saved lives, and those like me who believe they were utterly futile on their own terms, and have caused untold destruction.

US Effort To Hurt Russia Undermines Itself And The World

The core imperialist countries are being confronted with the reality that when you build an entire civilization off of theft from other civilizations, your society can’t sustain itself.

The pedophiles are at it again
Yet another organization appears to be trying to make child sexual abuse more acceptable by renaming it. (If that link doesn't connect - it seems to work intermittently - try this one for the same article at a different Web page.) Ageplay is the latest attempt to mainstream the obscene fetishes of “minor-attracted persons” (“MAPS”), who normal people call pedophiles. Prostasia Foundation, the “nonprofit” that promotes it, defines ageplay as “a form of role-play in which at least one of the participants adopts the role or mindset of someone younger—a teenager, child, or even a... read more

Social media megaphone (Krustovin August, https://pixabay.com/images/id-6096857/; Pixabay license free for commercial use) The Florida and Texas social media laws passed in 2021 were widely seen by both their proponents and their detractors as attempts by conservative forces to discipline social media companies for deplatforming President Trump and refusing to distribute the New York Post’s Hunter Biden story that criticized then-presidential candidate Joe Biden on the eve of the November 2020 election.

Shadowlands, the movie
Monday evening at Lakeside we enjoyed the movie Shadowlands about C.S. Lewis and his wife Joy at Orchestra Hall (movie theatre) where I sat with Barbara Martin. It had been raining very hard, so my tarp was actually occupying the seat between us. Our book club had read a fictionalized account of Joy Davidson Gresham several years ago, but I wasn't terribly familiar with their story. I noticed that one son had been left out of the story of their friendship, marriage and her death. So last night at an art show I asked Barbara about it, and she told me of the unfortunate life of the ol... read more
