The Decline of America’s Auto Industry
By Michael Stumo, CEO of the Coalition for a Prosperous America

The U.S. auto, parts and components supply chain has been weakened by growing imports, which now account for 48 percent of passenger vehicles purchased in the U.S. The industry must be strong enough, and profitable enough, to support development now and in the future. The decline of our auto industry, including a 22 percent decline in industry employment since 1990, reflects the unfair global market in which many of our competitors use industrial strategy, subsidies and misaligned exchange rates to erode our domestic industry. The U.S. needs a healthy automotive supply chain, including manufacturing, assembly, innovation and skilled workers. [more...]


Disney Stunned as ‘Solo’ Stumbles at the Box Office

The “Star Wars” franchise has been a sure winner for Disney, well worth the $4 billion the studio paid for Lucasfilm in 2012. When a “Star Wars” movie is released, it is nothing short of a spectacular event accompanied by an interstellar performance at the box office, but not this time. Box-office proceeds of the latest “Star Wars” installment, “Solo: A Star Wars Story,” has hit Disney executives hard, with a lower than expected three-day opening of $84.7 million and a projected four-day opening of $103 million - all this while the movie carried a production budget of over $250 million. The “Solo” results were 46 percent lower than the previous “Star Wars” release, “Rogue One,” causing Lucasfilm and Disney to reexamine the management of the “Star Wars” asset. [more...] NOTE: James is also available to talk about the Roseanne Barr story.


Fact Check - Yes, George Soros was a Nazi Collaborator

Since the media is once again insisting that Soros' Nazi collaboration was a conspiracy theory, here's George is in his own words on ‘60 Minutes.’ Was Soros responsible for his actions at that age? He's certainly responsible for his adult perceptions of them. And he's been quite clear about that. It's not just that he felt no guilt over it. It was, in his own words “the most exciting time of my life.” [more...] NOTE: Roseanne Update from Daniel Greenfield.


The Left’s Ruling Ideas

Below is a review of David Horowitz's new book, “Ruling Ideas," which is the ninth and final volume of The Black Book of the American Left, a multi-volume collection of Horowitz's conservative writings that now stands as the most ambitious effort ever undertaken to define the Left and its agenda. We encourage our readers to visit BlackBookOfTheAmericanLeft.com, which features Horowitz’s introductions to volumes 1-9 of this series, along with their tables of contents, reviews and interviews with the author. [more...]


Bloomberg - “Let’s Tax the Poor”

Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, one of America’s richest billionaires, now wants to heavily tax poor people. Such taxes, says Bloomberg, would be a “good thing” for those already in poverty. Like most self-righteous leftist Progressives, Michael Bloomberg is paternalistically proposing what economists call “Pigovian” taxes, designed not only to enrich government but also to impose social engineering.

Why I Will Not Be Speaking at UC Santa Cruz on June 6

Over the last thirty years, American universities have steadily abandoned their liberal ideals and become one-party states, where conservatives and their ideas are treated as alien intruders. Conservative faculty members at schools like UC Santa Cruz are as rare as unicorns. Entire academic disciplines, like Santa Cruz’s Feminist Studies Department, are openly designed as indoctrination programs in the ideologies of the left, with no pretense of examining a range of ideas in a scholarly manner. Required reading lists throughout the liberal arts curriculum have been cleansed of books by conservative authors. And over the last twenty years even visits by conservative speakers unconnected to the university have become contested occasions where leftwing activists obstruct, slander, and attempt to disrupt the visitor’s’ efforts to present a conservative point of view. This is a national disgrace – an offense to the very idea of education in a democracy like ours. But it is tacitly supported by the university itself. [more...]


They’re Not God
By Howard Comen, Private Investigator, Journalist

The silent majority are fed up with millionaire entertainers and athletes shaping our society - in a very negative way - with their leftist socialist agendas. We are the ones who support them! We go to their movies, we root for them at their games, we buy their products and are “gaga” over everything they do.  However, our recent boycotts are hitting them hard in the only place that matters to them - their pocketbooks - with the NFL’s low attendance, falling box office receipts, low awards shows’ viewership and more. Morgan Freeman, whose role as God in one movie has since had his Hollywood-invented popularity rewarded with wealth and fame, many endorsement deals, playing God in documentaries and more, has shown his true colors - first by apologizing for the allegations against him and now retracting them.  Well, the advertising industry doesn’t like it and many have fired “God” as his endorsement deals are going up in smoke.  Even “God” is not getting by with such behind-the-scenes behavior.

What is the “Crossfire Hurricane?”

In explicating the derivation of “Crossfire Hurricane,” I think they focused on the right line from “Jumpin’ Jack Flash,” but I think it should perhaps be read in connection with the preceding verses. The first lines of the four verses in the song read as follows:

I was born in a cross-fire hurricane
I was raised by a toothless, bearded hag
I was drowned, I was washed up and left for dead
I was crowned with a spike right through my head

From the Lisa Page/Peter Strzok texts, we know Page took the position that Trump couldn’t possibly win, but Strzok responded that an “insurance policy” was necessary in case Trump unexpectedly prevailed. In other words, Trump might be, as most people thought at the time, electorally “washed up and left for dead” - but if he won, despite the odds, it was necessary that he be damaged from the moment he was inaugurated - “crowned with a spike right through [his] head.” [more...]


What is Disrupting the Market and Could it Affect You?

The economic conditions of the United States have been spectacular as stock market indexes have hit all-time highs and unemployment rate hits new lows. However, over the past several weeks, market conditions have been volatile due to inflation and interest rate fears and trade war disputes with China. Let’s analyze further the cause and effect of these market disrupters. [more...]

Why I Will Not Be Speaking at UC Santa Cruz on June 6

This is a national disgrace – an offense to the very idea of education in a democracy like ours. But it is tacitly supported by the university itself.

The administration at UC Santa Cruz has adopted a policy for visiting speakers that washes its hands of any responsibility for what happens to visiting speakers to its campus. The policy frees the university from any responsibility to insure that there is the kind of civility that is essential to a scholarly discussion of dissenting ideas. Visiting speakers are now required to sign a “waiver” that frees UC Santa Cruz of any responsibility for harm that might come to them, even if that harm is caused by “negligence” on the part of the university. Since conservatives have been the targets of virtually all the protests and violence against visiting speakers, while leftists have been the disrupters responsible, this waiver is in practice the university’s decision to join the left’s hostile treatment of conservative voices, and its general attack on free speech.

The Santa Cruz Republicans have honored me with an invitation to speak on campus, June 6, 2018. I am 79 years old, am handicapped, and have been threatened and/or physically  attacked by leftist students on several campuses where I was invited to speak. I am not going to collude in the decision by UC Santa Cruz to wash its hands of responsibility for what happens to conservative speakers like me on its campus. This is a betrayal of its duty as a public institution to protect free speech and intellectual diversity and I am not going to be a party to that. I therefore regretfully will not be speaking at the university on June 6.

Framework Trade Deal with China
By Michael Stumo, CEO of the Coalition for a Prosperous America

The administration promised to fix the China problem. The framework deal reported this weekend only makes it worse. America is becoming a natural resource and tourism exporter to China, putting us in the economic position of a third world colony. China’s predatory capitalism is designed to displace America as the world’s largest and most advanced economic power. The deal announced by Secretary Mnuchin enables, rather than neutralizes, China’s state capitalism strategy. The focus for future negotiations must be to deny the benefits of forced technology transfer and state-planned capitalism that unfairly displace American value-added and advanced manufacturing supply chains. [more...]


The Fourth Amendment is Worth Protecting

The New York Times recently published an extensive article that attempted to shine a positive light on an appallingly scandalous set of facts. However, even with its extravagant spin efforts, the newspaper could not exclude the information that the FBI employed secret counterintelligence tools to spy on the Trump campaign, including the use of a paid confidential informant who sought to extract damaging information from several people associated with the campaign. It is a grave situation when, through the use of counterintelligence powers, a presidential administration targets officials associated with the campaign of the opposition party. The same Obama executive branch engaged in a series of extraordinary actions to step-up government intrusions, including the following... [more...]


Oil Prices Rise Globally

The usual case is that with a weaker American dollar, oil prices drop because it then becomes cheaper for nations using foreign currencies to buy crude oil. However, because of continued turmoil and the coming renewed sanctions (set by the USA pulling out of the Iran deal), crude oil prices in the global marketplace are expected to rise as experts wait to see how such sanctions and political conflicts in oil-rich countries affect the global marketplace. Both European and American oil import prices have risen to almost a whole percent - the highest since November 2014. Experts predict up to 350,000 barrels of Iranian oil could be at risk of disruption if sanctions were re-imposed. [more...]


Eight More Years!

Although President Trump has achieved much, the anti-democratic tactics used against him have sapped his political capital and impaired his constitutional power to fulfill his campaign promises. Our unelected government is defying and spitting in the face of the voters. This is not the way our democracy is supposed to work. Democracy delayed is democracy denied. Arrogant leftist stonewalling, obstruction, and collusion have stolen almost two years of the Trump Administration for which Americans voted. Since the 2016 election, we have learned of Ms. Clinton’s undemocratic secret manipulation of the Democratic Party’s primary process, and of her own and the Democratic National Committee’s collusion through the Russian dossier used to get FISA warrants to spy on Trump activities. Special Counsel Robert Mueller is not investigating a crime, as our legal system requires, but pursuing President Trump in hopes of finding a crime, any crime. If and when these anti-democratic leftist furies fail in their effort to undo the 2016 election, voters will rightly ask for justice. How can they reclaim their chosen President’s two stolen years of governing? The U.S. Constitution has no provision to return two years robbed from a President held political hostage by the opposition party. But voters can and should give President Trump a 60-seat Senate majority and strong House majority this November. His last six years can thus be as liberating for Americans as having eight more years to liberate our republic. [more...]


The ADL Betrays Jews to Left-Wing Anti-Semitism

The ADL (the Anti-Defamation League) has been irrelevant for 50 years. Its full organizational name, like that of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), is rarely used because that identity and mission lie in another era. The ADL was founded in 1913 to promote the acceptance of Jews in mainstream society. Its founding charter was concerned with "the caricaturing and defaming of Jews on the stage, in moving pictures." Its original plan was to fight anti-Semitic prejudice by lobbying theater managers and newspaper editors. [more...]


The EU’s Magical Thinking on the Israeli-Arab Conflict

For seven decades, the West’s foreign policy establishment has been trying to call Middle East peace from depths of endless summits and conferences and agreements with ritualistic chants of “land for peace” and “two-state solution.” But all they’ve managed to produce is war, terrorism, and groveling appeasement. Peace hasn’t answered their call. The EU has been particularly feckless, spending billions of Euros paying off the Palestinian Arabs so that they and their fellow jihadists don’t unleash terrorist hordes to disturb la dolce vita of European elites. Fearful of the disgruntled unassimilated Muslim immigrants they have let invade their countries, they have demonized Israel’s “illegal occupation” and “disproportionate use of force,” and winked at growing anti-Semitism and Muslim violence, all in the hopes that they will escape the wrath of Allah’s “martyrs.” Of course, they haven’t, as attested by the blood and gore spattering the streets of Paris, London, Brussels, Berlin, and Madrid. Nor have they bought a reprieve from the “Little Terror,” as Norwegian blogger Fjordman calls it, of daily vandalism, rape, assault, and creeping sharia, along with the commandeering and colonization of public spaces and civic institutions. [more...]

Collapsing Infrastructure Hits Home... Again


By Howard Comen, Private Investigator, Journalist

One of President Trump’s campaign promises was to revamp America’s infrastructure - rebuilding roads, bridges and airports.  As a master international builder of great buildings, he promised the “infrastructure of tomorrow.” “Our roads and bridges are falling apart,” Trump said as he accepted the GOP nomination. “We will build the roads, highways, bridges, tunnels, airports and the railways of tomorrow. This, in turn, will create millions of more jobs.”

During the debates, Trump compared the "incredible airports" in Dubai, Qatar and China to less impressive ones in the U.S. "Our airports are like from a third world country," he said, calling out LAX and New York City's three international airports: LaGuardia, John F. Kennedy and Newark.

Since then, a pedestrian bridge in Miami collapsed, killing six people. Did it crack when it was lifted into place? Was it a snapping steel support that did it in? Or was it a fatally flawed design from the start? And what was the doomed construction crew member doing when the bridge buckled under him?

This week, Charleston, South Carolina’s Wando Bridge on Interstate 526, was shut down Monday for emergency repairs - the bridge was designed by FIGG Bridge Group, the same engineering firm that designed the pedestrian bridge that collapsed and killed six people in Miami. The Wando Bridge, formally known as the James Burrow Edwards Bridge, was constructed in the late 1980s-early 1990s.

Having worked extensively back in 1989, on investigating the the twenty-six mile half a billion-dollar (in 1989 dollars) Mark Clark Expressway separating Mount Pleasant from Downtown, West Ashley, and North Charleston which has been, for all intents and purposes, shut down, I know a thing or two about this topic. When this boondoggle was first built, and I was looking for a missing bridge inspector, Governor Campbell sent word to me, along with 5,000 pages of Highway Department contracts, soil boring plats and assorted other information that I was on my own with my investigation, that the Highway Department was autonomous and beyond anyone's control. 

Once again, the Wando Bridge is collapsing because of corruption, incompetence, selfishness, money grubbing highway contractors, lawmakers, and state and federal law enforcement that make the Keystone Cops look competent.  I only hope an investigation will reveal the truth once and for all.  How many more people have to die because of our collapsing infrastructure?  We spend trillions of dollars every year rebuilding other countries; can’t we spend a few bucks on our own?

Corsi: Trump About to Ax Mueller, Rosenstein, Sessions



President Donald Trump is on the verge of staging a major shake-up in Washington, including the ending of special counsel Robert Mueller's probe into Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential race and whether the Trump campaign was involved. We're right now at the point where I think Donald Trump is getting ready to fire Mueller... I think it’s imminent.

I think he'll also fire Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein and Attorney General Jeff Sessions as well.  I believe Trump plans to lay out the case to the nation that Mueller is a corrupt prosecutor - the kind of prosecutor who will violate laws. When President Trump brings this back to the American people, I think the American people will not object to Mueller being fired, and in his wake, his protector Rod Rosenstein, and Jeff Sessions. [more...]

NOTE: Corsi's latest Killing the Deep State has soared to the top of Amazon, Barnes & Noble and the New York Times bestseller lists. He argues his book offers "smoking gun" evidence high-ranking officials of the FBI and DOJ took steps in 2016 to insure Trump's ouster if he was elected. In his book, Corsi describes what he calls a secret conspiracy to destroy the Trump presidency and what Trump must do now to prevail.

California’s Economy Will Benefit from President Trump’s Trade Policies


By Michael Stumo, CEO of the Coalition for a Prosperous America

While California isn’t Trump country, Californians may find a curious silver lining in the president’s recent actions on trade, particularly with China. In part, that’s because the trade issue doesn’t cut cleanly down party lines. Most of California’s Democratic delegation is ostensibly with the president on trade - and they share his opposition to free trade agreements. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer [D-New York] recently said that he supports President Trump’s trade policies more than he supported President Obama’s.

Trade matters because it profoundly impacts America’s manufacturing sector. California residents might be surprised to learn that their state is home to the nation’s largest manufacturing base, including a whopping 1.3 million manufacturing workers. These manufacturing jobs tend to pay good, middle-class wages - something that’s particularly important for Los Angeles, which is still the nation’s single largest manufacturing hub. [more...]

Kengor: John Kerry's Unauthorized Actions


John Kerry: Reporting for Duty... From Vietnam to Iran

He hasn’t changed a lick in 47 years.

I’ve been asked a number of times about John Kerry’s unauthorized actions with Iran compared to Ted Kennedy’s unauthorized actions with the Kremlin. Kerry, this spring 2018, sought to undermine President Trump’s policies, whereas Kennedy, spring 1983, sought to undermine President Reagan’s policies.

Many people - including the President of the United States - want to know if Kerry’s actions constitute a violation of the Logan Act. It’s a question I’m frequently asked about Kennedy. The short answer, in both cases, is that I’m not the source to provide the answer... Congress is. The Democratic Congress in the 1980s didn’t hesitate to launch criminal proceedings against President Ronald Reagan and his staff (many of them fine men of great integrity) in a militant pursuit for impeachment over “Iran-Contra.” Liberal Democrats did so while turning a blind eye as their leader - House Speaker Jim Wright - buddied up to Sandinista dictator Daniel Ortega in his own negotiations.

And Wright wasn’t secretary of state, just as John Kerry wasn’t secretary of state when he conferred with Iranian officials in secret meetings in New York. In what the Boston Globe described as a “rare move” of “unusual shadow diplomacy,” Kerry met with the Iranian foreign minister (among other high-level foreign officials) “to discuss ways of preserving the pact limiting Iran’s nuclear weapons program. It was the second time in about two months that the two had met to strategize over salvaging a deal they spent years negotiating during the Obama administration, according to a person briefed on the meetings.” That’s the very deal that President Trump was working to cancel just as Kerry was working to save it.

In 1995, the United States Congress, on a bipartisan basis, passed the "Jerusalem Embassy Act," based on explicit findings written into the law. The opening of the American embassy in Jerusalem is a historic day for Israel, for the American-Israeli alliance, and for those who recognize that peace in the region requires -- as both Republicans and Democrats legislated two-and-a-half decades ago -- recognition of an undivided city, in which the rights of every ethnic and religious group should be protected, as they have been for the last 50 years by the State of Israel, after the city was reunited by Israel.

Why Obama’s Iran Deal Got Trumped

President Donald Trump’s decision to terminate President Barack Obama’s Iran deal, said Mr. Obama – a self-described globalist “citizen of the world” – “is a serious mistake.” Two former directors of Obama’s National Security Council committed an even larger ethical breach. Steven Simon and Jonathan Stevenson in a New York Times Op-Ed called on European nations to withdraw their diplomats from Washington, expel U.S. diplomats from their capitals, and respond to any U.S. sanctions for continuing to trade with Iran by imposing sanctions of their own against the United States.

Free-Trade Economists Begin to See the Light on Trade and Globalization

For decades, economists have taught David Ricardo’s Law of Comparative Advantage as if it is an absolute law.  But the tide is turning, as some highly respected economists are now moving away from the doctrinaire position that all free trade is always good everywhere, and they begin to acknowledge that free trade and large trade deficits have inflicted substantial harm on the U.S. economy. From the mid-1970s on, growing trade has also meant the growing loss of good-paying jobs to competitor nations. Around the year 2000, the process accelerated. Globalization entered a new phase, which Harvard economist Dani Rodrik has labeled “hyperglobalization.” Three significant effects launched hyperglobalization... [more...]


Disney-Owned ABC’s Disdain for Conservatives

In May of 2016, ABC executives made an inexplicable decision, one that from a business standpoint seemed totally incoherent. The Disney-owned network mysteriously cancelled its second-highest rated sitcom, which made no sense since the comedy had already received two prime time Emmy nominations and was on a solid upward trajectory. “Last Man Standing,” starring Tim Allen, was in its sixth successful season at the time of its cancellation, with an average of more than 8 million viewers for the 2016-17 season. One rational explanation for ABC’s exercise in poor judgment back in 2016 may be that the company has an inherent disdain, as many in Hollywood do, for the show’s conservative-leaning content.

In Progressive America, All Roads Lead to Single-Payer
By Sally Pipes, President & CEO of the Pacific Research Institute

Senators Chris Murphy [D-Conn] and Jeff Merkley [D-Ore] recently introduced the "Choose Medicare Act," which would give every American the option to buy into Medicare. Their colleagues have already rolled out three other bills that would provide for a more limited Medicare buy-in, a Medicaid buy-in, and a full-fledged, government-run, single-payer system. All of these bills would lead to the same inevitable outcome -- a federal takeover of the nation's healthcare system. Each of the government-sponsored buy-in plans could operate at a loss indefinitely. Private insurers don't have that luxury; they'd ultimately go out of business. This, of course, is the progressives' goal. [more...]


5 Reasons Transgender Policies are Harmful

Who knew that removing the federal government from debates over school bathroom policies would be considered an assault on LGBT rights? That’s the argument activists made when the Department of Education announced that it would be enforcing Title IX the way the federal government always had - up until the second term of the Obama administration. That’s when the Obama Department of Education announced that the word “sex” now meant “gender identity” - and ordered schools to open up their bathrooms, locker rooms, showers, and dorms accordingly. In my book, When Harry Became Sally: Responding to the Transgender Moment, I write about the controversies surrounding these transgender policies. [more...]

The Historic Opening of the American Embassy in Jerusalem


In 1995, the United States Congress, on a bipartisan basis, passed the "Jerusalem Embassy Act," based on explicit findings written into the law, in which the Congress found that:

(1) every nation, under international law and custom, may designate its own capital;
(2) Jerusalem is the seat of Israel’s President, Parliament, and Supreme Court, and the spiritual center of Judaism;
(3) since 1967, it has been a united city administered by Israel, and persons of all religious faiths have been guaranteed full access to holy sites within the city; and
(4) Congress ‘‘strongly believes that Jerusalem must remain an undivided city in which the rights of every ethnic and religious group are protected.”

The law provided that "Jerusalem should be recognized as the capital of the State of Israel; and the United States Embassy in Israel should be established in Jerusalem no later than May 31, 1999."

Every president since then has promised during his presidential campaign to implement that law, but until yesterday, it remained unimplemented. Yesterday -- 23 years after that law was enacted -- it became a reality.

It is a historic day for Israel, for the American-Israeli alliance, and for those who recognize that peace in the region requires -- as both Republicans and Democrats legislated two-and-a-half decades ago -- recognition of an undivided city, in which the rights of every ethnic and religious group should be protected, as they have been for the last 50 years by the State of Israel, after the city was reunited by Israel.

Iran is Using Syria as its Base of Terror Operation to Destabilize the Whole Middle East



Iran controls over 70,000 Iranians and non-Iranian minions in Syria and has over 250,000 fighters and operatives on its payroll. Its army includes about 10,000 Revolutionary guards, around 6,000 regular Iranian army, around 10,000 Hezbollah fighters from Lebanon and the rest are from Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Palestinians and others.

Iran has spent approximately $100 billion on the Syrian war. The sanctions relief given to Iran as a result of Obama's "nuclear agreement" has given Iran a slush fund to invest $35 billion of our tax dollars in Syria on weapons and training and building a Command Center to control terror operations and weapons flow.

As a result of this slush fund, Hezbollah now has an estimated 155,000 rockets and missiles in Lebanon directed at Israel. One in four homes in southern Lebanon is a Hezbollah home with rocket launching room.

Iran has divided Syria into five sections and has over 13 military bases. Their command center is located near the Damascus airport because they believe the airport is the last to fall.

Iran wants to establish hegemony in the Middle East, and the Saudis, Egyptians and Jordanians know it. Their fear and concern about Iran is what drove them to work with Israel and America to stop Iran. Iran's role and work in Syria has led to ISIS and the refugee crisis across the middle east, Europe and the rest of the world.

CIA Nominee Gina Haspel Does Not Deserve to Be a Target in The Left's 'War on Women'



President Trump’s nominee for CIA director, Gina Haspel, is facing a confirmation hearing before the Senate Intelligence Committee today, but despite her impeccable track record of success as an intelligence officer, she has been hit with an onslaught of attacks from the president’s political opponents.

Isn’t it ironic that those who complain so loudly about the so-called “war on women” are often the ones perpetuating it? If confirmed, Haspel would be the first woman to head the CIA, but Democrats, bitterly opposed to anything and everything President Trump does, are determined to sink her nomination – simply because she was nominated by this president.

O’Reilly: The Left Hates this Pro-Trump Book



Bill O’Reilly says Killing the Deep State is “a book that the left doesn’t like.” He’s right. In fact, the left, and their allies in the big media hate Jerome Corsi’s sensational new book. So much so, they have placed a virtual ban on Corsi across all the major networks -- CNN, CBS, ABC, MSNBC . . .  and even Fox News. But Bill O’Reilly is not afraid and recently featured Corsi on his popular BillOReilly.com podcast. Holding the book up for viewers, O’Reilly declared: “There’s a new book out -- and it’s an homage to me -- called Killing the Deep State by Dr. Jerome Corsi,” referring to his own hugely successful series of “Killing” books. Despite the media blackout, Corsi’s book has soared to the top of the bestseller lists making the No. 1 spot on Amazon and hitting the coveted New York Times list for weeks. [more...]

The Second and Third Israeli Miracles

Much of the commentary on the 70th anniversary of Israel’s founding has focused on the miraculous re-creation of the Jewish state after 1,878 years, on the same land where Jewish kingdoms had existed for centuries, with Jews speaking the same language in 1948 that they spoke in the first century, when the Romans exiled them from their land. But there was another miracle in 1948. David Ben-Gurion described it in an essay he wrote in 1954, when Israel was six years old, titled “The Eternity of Israel.” The second miracle, Ben-Gurion wrote, was the extraordinary Jewish unity on May 14, 1948.

Pres. Trump Ends Obama’s Iran Hostage Crisis

Trump Crushed Every Lie About the Iran Deal

Jimmy Carter began the first Iranian hostage crisis and Reagan ended it. Obama began America’s second Iranian hostage crisis... President Trump just ended it. On January 12, 2016, Iran's IRGC terror force seized 2 U.S. Navy vessels, extracted classified information from their crews at gunpoint, broadcast images of American sailors on their knees and forced an officer to read an apology. A day later, the Islamic terror state released its American hostages. Three days later, Implementation Day lifted sanctions on Iran. By the next month, Iran was claiming that it had received over $100 billion in sanctions relief. It was not the last ransom payment linked to the nuclear deal. [more...]


2018 Great for Mergers & Acquisitions

2018 has been a great year thus far for M&A. The number of deals is down, but the deal sizes are increasing. Record-breaking deals are being proposed and executed both in the United States and globally. Just in the last week, Sprint and T-Mobile announced a $26 billion merger, and Marathon Petroleum announced a $36 billion acquisition. Other potential deals include Walmart and J Sainsbury, Walmart (or Amazon) and Flipkart, and Bayer and Monsanto. To provide a better idea, as of mid-last week, there have been 11,828 deals valued at $1.71 trillion globally. Deals are valued to be 63% larger on average than last year. [more...]


Cultural Workers Unite! Today’s Marxist Revolution

Karl Marx’s vision may have ended in political and economic failure, but even he couldn't have anticipated his ongoing and perhaps ultimate triumph on the cultural front.

Last Saturday marked the bicentennial of Karl Marx’ birth, a cause for literal celebration in various quarters of the academy.  It’s often charged among the political right that America is going communist, or at least socialist, or toward some form of Marxism. My concern is less classical Marxism than cultural Marxism, a strain of communist thought that even most of those engaging in it aren’t consciously aware of. If you Google “cultural Marxism,” the first thing that pops up is a Wikipedia definition dismissing it as a “conspiracy theory which sees the Frankfurt School as part of an ongoing movement to take over and destroy Western culture.” [more...]


Trump’s Truths

On the latest edition of REVOLUTION_The Podcast... we examine how Donald Trump directs, runs and dictates every single statement made by his staff and government. This President personally crafts all messages delivered on television by his people - so when Rudy Giuliani speaks, he is reading from a script written by Donald Trump. Those who refuse to do so are summarily removed from office or from his legal team. "Loyalty" in his mind is a pre-agreement to do Trump's bidding - and to offer no disagreement. The question: how long can this last before the truth catches up with Trump? [more...]

Trump’s Tariffs Could Put Money in the Pockets of America’s Farmers
By Michael Stumo, CEO of the Coalition for a Prosperous America

Fears of retaliation by China are greatly exaggerated, and the potential gains far outweigh the possible downsides

President Donald Trump’s recently implemented trade strategy - including tariffs on subsidized imports from China - is drawing fire from multinational agribusinesses and their trade associations. They favor a borderless world, and they support the free trade agreements of the past 20 years. Family farmers and ranchers, however, have a different view. They no longer believe current free trade agreements will benefit them. Net farm income this year is projected to be the lowest since 2006. The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) transformed America’s agricultural trade surplus with Mexico and Canada into a deficit. [more...]


The “Fundamental Transformation” of Both Parties

Hillary Clinton’s latest excuse for losing the 2016 election is that she is a “capitalist” but “41 percent of Democrats are socialists...” Hillary Clinton is a “capitalist” as Marx used the term. She favors crony capitalism in which privileged elitists get rich via government favors. She rules a billion-dollar foundation that demanded kickbacks from those seeking favors from the Secretary of State... favors like a Russian company acquiring 20% of America’s precious uranium reserves while her foundation pocketed from Russian interests at least $145 million. Most of the Republican Party, meanwhile, thanks to President Trump, is moving away from the globalist, collectivist agenda of Progressivism that has ruled both parties since World War II. Mr. Trump is restoring both nationalism and America’s borders. He is returning America to its historic role as an experiment in liberty that unites enterprising, liberty-seeking citizens from around the world in the first “new nation,” a great model of free enterprise for Planet Earth to follow. [more...]


John Kerry’s Contemptible Collusion

Former Secretary of State John Kerry has been colluding with the enemy, back-channeling with leaders of a totalitarian regime that fosters terrorism, and working against the national security interests of the United States. Kerry has committed a textbook violation of the Logan Act, a 1799 law that has never resulted in a conviction. The law is violated when a private citizen negotiates without authorization on behalf of the United States in disputes with foreign governments. The rationale behind the law seeks to prevent an individual with international contacts from thwarting the policy of the nation. This is exactly what Kerry has been attempting. Why bring up a law from centuries past? [more...]


The Doctor Shortage: Fact or Fiction?

In a recent study, The Association of American Medical Colleges has projected that there will be a doctor shortage between 42,000 and 120,300 by 2030. This is a stunning number when you break down the fact that the shortage will affect primary care doctors (14,800 – 49,300); specialists (33,800 – 72,700); and surgical sub specialists (20,700 – 30,500). The looming crisis is magnified by the fact that increasing demand from both a growing and an aging population must be considered. How did we get to this point? Perhaps it is because Congress passed The Balanced Budget Act of 1997 which limited the number of residency positions in the US. Because of this, there are doctors who graduate from medical school each year who cannot be licensed to practice medicine because they cannot find a residency. Physicians must complete at least one year of residency to be eligible to practice medicine. Instead of taking care of patients in underserved communities, these doctors are unnecessarily sidelined. [more...]


Marx’s Apologists Should Be Red in the Face

The bicentennial of the man whose ideas killed untold millions

May 5th marked the bicentennial of Karl Marx, who set the stage with his philosophy for the greatest ideological massacres in history. Or did he? He did, but deniers still remain. “Only a fool could hold Marx responsible for the Gulag,” writes Francis Wheen in “Karl Marx: A Life”. Stalin, Mao and Kim Il Sung, Mr. Wheen insists, created “bastard creeds,” “wrenched out of context” from Marx’s writings. Marx has been accused of ambiguity in his writings. That critique is often justified, but not always. In “The Communist Manifesto,” he and Friedrich Engels were quite clear that “the theory of the Communists may be summed up in the single sentence: abolition of private property.” [more...]


Why There Can Never Be Another Rush Limbaugh

If you’ve looked at talk radio scene recently, you have probably noticed there’s a certain stagnation or entropy that’s set in. It’s been years since a major talent exploded upon the scene, garnering millions of listeners and fans. The conclusion to be drawn: Due to numerous changes, demographic, technological, financial, economic and political, terrestrial based talk show hosts are rapidly becoming an endangered species. That’s not to say that Limbaugh, Hannity, Savage, Levin and others are at risk losing their relevance, but rather it’s an observation that the new talent pipeline won’t be providing their successors anytime soon.
