Black Lives Matter Leaders Aren't Capitalist Converts; They Still Want to Dismantle the U.S.

By Mike Gonzalez

Many have reacted to the news that the founders of Black Lives Matter lavishly spend donated money on luxury mansions by asking: How can Marxists behave this way? One activist was even quoted as saying that this must mean they are capitalists. This reaction, though, is based on a complete misunderstanding of the difference between Marxism and capitalism. The BLM organizations raise money in the name of social justice, but to them that does not mean helping individual Black Americans improve their lives. What it means is fundamentally altering the American system, and imposing Marxism, an alien ideology with a 100 percent rate of failure, on our country. [more...]

2020 Election Irregularities are Still Unaddressed Despite Recounts Gone Wrong, Erased Records, and Suddenly Surfacing Ballots

By Dr. John Lott

If we are going to avoid the type of debate that we saw after the November 2020 election and restore confidence, then transparency is important. Take one of the least obvious places where people have concerns about the election - Montana. Trump won the state in 2020 by 16.4 percent. But there is an election transparency problem in Missoula County, Montana's second most populous county. If errors can occur in even relatively uncontested parts of the country, we should be broadly concerned. What went wrong? Well, for one thing, it all got worse after COVID-19 made mail-in voting mainstream. [more...]

India, China Pharmaceutical Companies Face Increasing Scrutiny in Washington

By Kenneth Rapoza, China Expert/Industry Analyst for the Coalition for a Prosperous America

The pandemic revealed gaping holes in U.S. supply chains. Everyone knows it. Anything medical related was front and center when it came to critical items missing in action. The country's over-reliance on China and India, especially for medical supplies, namely key generic drugs, is finally getting Washington's attention but little has been done to counter it so far. That is likely to change. A poll by Morning Consult conducted on behalf of the newly formed advocacy group Americans for Safe Drugs showed that 85% of respondents said they were concerned about the drug industry's reliance on India and China. Another 70% said that the U.S. should not be reliant on foreign sources for key generic drugs. That reliance is stark. [more...]

Legislation Would Ensure Some Criminals Serve 100% Of Their Sentence

By Nikki Goeser, Executive Director of the Crime Prevention Research Center

There is legislation that is making its way through the state legislature called the Truth In Sentencing Bill that would expand the list of offenses that would mandate an inmate serve 100% of their sentence. I SUPPORT THIS BILL and let me tell you why. Right now, victims are lied to everyday in criminal courtrooms across Tennessee when they are told their attacker will serve 100% of their prison sentence. How do I know?  THIS HAPPENED TO ME. [more...]

SNL Goes on the Attack Against Elon Musk

By James Hirsena

Unfortunately, much like the news scripters at MSNBC, SNL's comedy writers have become apparatchiks of leftist media autocrats. The recent treatment of Elon Musk is a prime case in point. Many view Elon as a modern-day Edison. He's an entrepreneur extraordinaire and highly successful business magnate to boot. His recent treatment by SNL is serving to underscore the fact that decision makers of the show have been bowing lower and lower to a media monarchy that in turn has been bowing to a shadow ruling class. [more...]
