Cyber Warfare - A technology Trillion Dollar Shot in the Arm

By Bill Glynn

Big business is at war with a new cyber army. It has deployed its troops into the new world, a new frontier, and even nation states have joined in with massive efforts to hobble global commerce, specifically in the West. Sony, Target and even the Defense Department, among many others, are under siege. It has only just begun. The culprits are North Korea, China, Russia, Iran and now even ISIS. The fact is there are land laws, maritime laws, air and space laws, but the new frontier, cyber, is yet to be governed by similar standards and government rules of engagement around the world. The U.S. has extremely robust capabilities, both offensive and defensive, but critical infrastructure, power grids, nuclear, transportation and a multi-trillion dollar electronic business - from online business to banks and Wall Street - are woefully underprepared. 9/11, as terrible as that was, may pale in comparison to the global economic disruption that is coming to our shores anywhere and everywhere on the planet.

It’s Time for the Oil Industry to Plan its Exit Strategy

By Michelle Seiler-Tucker

After steadily increasing to recent highs, the price of oil has been dropping dramatically in the past six to eight months as worldwide oil production reaches its own highs. Americans refuse to cut back on production because they are supporting job creation, which is a good enough reason for most. Saudis are not cutting production because they could care less what happens to America or the rest of the world. This phenomenon, in part, leads to a surplus in the American market which is contributing to the creation of a massive ripple effect on the underlying oil commodity market. Part of the money making ability of companies in the oil and gas Industry is directly correlated with the price of their particular type of oil. [more...]

Media's Confusing Messages

By Bill Tatro

"U.S. Retail Drops the Most Since 2012" ... "Holiday Sales Rise the Most Since 2011" ... huh? A bit confusing wouldn’t you say? But those were the headlines that greeted me with my morning coffee. I assumed that the decline imbedded in the first headline was due to a decrease in gasoline sales. While sales volume is probably the same, it was just the price that dropped by 40%.  I was correct, but I was also a bit surprised to learn that miscellaneous store retailers, electronics, appliances, clothing, sporting goods, books, music and department stores all went negative.

Bush was 100% Right After 9/11

By David Horowitz

Fourteen years after 9/11, it is tragically clear that President Bush was right about the threat we faced and Democrats are suicidally wrong. The 9/11 attacks were indeed a salvo in the war Islamists have declared on us but even now, all these years later, Democrats still want to regard such attacks as acts of individual criminality, and deal with them through the legal justice system, affording American rights to those who want to destroy American rights.  Why, you may ask yourself, is the Boston Marathon bomber going to be tried in a criminal court of law, where he will be able to make propaganda for his cause underwritten by his victims? Because Democrats want it that way. It shows we're superior to everybody else. [more...]

Obama's Stubborn Denial of the Terror Threat Endangers Americans

By David Horowitz

The Islamic terror attack on the magazine Charlie Hebdo in Paris was carried out by Muslim criminals who were apparently trained in Yemen. Meanwhile, national security officials are warning of an imminent threat to Europe and the United States from jihadi soldiers who are returning from the wars in Syria and Iraq.

According to the head of the FBI and other first responders, there is no way to stop their re-entry because, after all, they have American passports. Nor is there any way to stop them in Syria and Iraq since President Obama has surrendered both countries to our enemies.

The Democratic mayor of New York - ground zero for the Islamic war - has even stopped the surveillance of jihadi mosques, the breeding grounds for domestic "lone wolves." And with our southern border shredded by Mr. Obama and the Democrats, it’s not going to be difficult even for foreign jihadis to reach their infidel targets. Of course, the president doesn’t like the word "terror" to begin with, let alone "Islamic terror." Thanks to him, the Islamic war against the United States is officially referred to as an "overseas contingency operation," while domestic Islamic mayhem is filed under the category "workplace violence."

America's Best Climate Prediction Expert Finally Gets Noticed

Climate change has been a volatile issue for years, even amongst leading scientists and researchers from other disciplines. In his new book, Dark Winter: How the Sun is Causing a 30-Year Cold Spell, scientist John L. Casey, a former White House national space policy advisor, NASA headquarters consultant and space shuttle engineer, tells the truth about ominous changes taking place in the climate and the sun. 

In Orlando, Florida, John L. Casey is the lone climate researcher who, for almost eight years, has been putting the U.S. government's best scientists and science agencies to shame, when it comes to accurately making major climate predictions. This is especially true when compared to Al Gore-style global warming politicians, government funded university Ph.D. climate scientists and the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (UN-IPCC).

The UN-IPCC is the UN's climate research arm that historians may someday remember best for unreliable climate models and associated wildly exaggerated, and erroneous temperature and sea level rise predictions. The "climategate" scandal at the UN will likewise be prominent for the disclosure that its supposed "best climate scientists" falsified or manipulated climate data to fit the politically motivated manmade global warming storyline.

The Significance of the Golden Globes

By James Hirsen

The awards season is in high gear, and the time period leading up to the Oscars is now replete with shows that look and feel very much like the upcoming Academy Awards. Last night's 72nd Golden Globe Awards, as well as the upcoming Screen Actors Guild (SAG) and Critics' Choice Movie Awards, are likely to have a significant impact on the ultimate Academy Award winners.

The effects, however, may be manifesting themselves in very different ways. Various guild awards typically assert influence on individual categories; for example, the Directors Guild Awards should expectedly play a large role in determining the winner of the Academy's Best Director category. Hollywood insiders usually do not attach a high degree of significance to the Globe awards in terms of prestige. However, awards such as these do tend to provide public relations momentum and name recognition, operating as a sort of prelude to the most coveted awards, the Oscars. [more...]

Predictions for the Economy in 2015

By Bill Glynn

Although the consumer sentiment in the U.S. alone appears to be on the rise, Thanksgiving and Christmas retail sales were lackluster at best and the season was carried by online sales at best.  Unemployment is down and the stock market up.  It all looks good for 2015. But wait... the world is uncertain due to the withdrawal of American leadership abroad.  If you think Greece caused a worldwide panic, wait until sanctions in Russia really take hold and the imminent backlash there.  Buy beltway bandits or defense stocks with a focus on cyber security - they will do well. [more...]

Why Raise Rates?

By Bill Tatro

Inflation, whether determined by core, headline, or the feds' own internal measurement, is not approaching the cyclonic days of yesteryear. As a matter of fact, the world in general, and the U.S. in particular, cannot even get the rate to a paltry 2%. That's paltry by the '70's standards. Mortgage origination is at all-time lows. Oil has dropped 55% in 6 months. The housing market's post '08 bubble now seems to have sprung a leak. The only jobs being offered are minimum wage. Mainstream media says rates will rise by mid-summer. The economic gang of 68 (those who unanimously predicted 4% 10-year treasuries by the end of 2014) say increases could be sooner. Even the fed heads are saying "lackluster inflation won't prevent a rate hike." So, why raise rates? [more...]

Why Does the Media Lie About Race to Protect Obama?

By Wayne Allyn Root

Why does the media lie about race? Why do they lie to cover up for Obama? It started out as embarrassing and pathetic, but it’s moved on to pure fraud. Why does the media allow Obama to give press conferences about the handful of black Americans killed by police officers, but never mention the police officers murdered by black criminals? It happens all the time, but Obama never says a word about it. That’s his prerogative, but it’s the media’s job to question him - to point out the inconsistencies - to call him on the hypocrisy and what looks to both police officers and law-abiding citizens as a dangerous double standard that incites violence against police. [more...]

Is Cable on its Way Out?

By Michelle Seiler-Tucker

A new era is upon us.  Recently Dish Network announced their newest project that will be cutting ties with cable lines. The new Internet streaming service is called Sling TV, which will give users programming from a package of channels, including ESPN, for $20 a month. The appeal of watching live sports is what keeps many in the loop with pay TV. But that was then and this is now. Although CBS and HBO have recently also cut their ties with cable contracts, Sling TV is the first service from an actual cable - technically satellite - company to get in the game. Better watch out Netflix. It looks like it’s time to up your game. Netflix may have a great thing going for them, but only cable providers such as AT&T U-Verse offer on-demand accessibility to the box office’s most recent movie releases. [more...]

The End of the Mainstream Media

By Dr. Gerard Lameiro

I believe 2015 is the year that America will witness the end of the mainstream media.  That's a bold statement.  Yet, I believe 2015 will turn out to be a significant inflection point in American history.  Years from now, when historians look back at 2015, I believe it will be considered the year the mainstream media died; and it will be considered a major turning point in American political and economic history. Let's look at what really constitutes the mainstream media, the major trends and how the mainstream media has declined; and the factors that are causing the end of the mainstream.  Finally, and very importantly, how will the end of the mainstream media impact the 2016 elections?

The Rest of the "Unbroken" Story

By James Hirsen

Alfred Hitchcock once said that the drama in movies is like "life with the dull bits cut out." Along the lines of Hitchcock's quote, some of life's dull bits are indeed cut out of Angelina Jolie's inspiring directorial triumph, "Unbroken." However, while Jolie's film was careful to exclude some of life's more mundane moments, one unfortunate writing and editing move made by the "Unbroken" decision makers was to not include, within the dramatic narrative about Louie Zamperini, the most important event in the World War II veteran and former Olympian’s remarkable life story.

What Will the New Republican-Controlled Congress Do About Obamacare, Immigration and Keystone?

By John LeBoutillier

What will the GOP-controlled Congress do now that they control both the Senate and House? What is their agenda? What will they do about Obamacare, immigration and Keystone? Now that the U.S. has ended combat operations in Afghanistan, what will happen in that country? Will the Taliban win in the end – like ISIS in Iraq? This – and much more – will be discussed by the POLITICAL INSIDERS. [more...]

Greece Leaving the European Union?

By Bill Tatro

Angela Merkel's rationalization at the exit of Greece from the "great experiment" is acceptable if Germany and Greece existed in a vacuum.  Unfortunately that is not the case. As bail-ins have become the template for failed banks around the world (think Cypress), so too will the Greek snap election become the model for Spain, Italy and even France. Not only Germany but also the top 1% of each European member have become the winners in the failed experiment. The 1% who have been able to benefit from artificial asset appreciation continued to believe that the Keynesian/debt model will exist forever.  Didn't Marie Antoinette once say "let them eat cake?" [more...]

The "Positives" of the Obama Presidency

By Wayne Allyn Root

You might ask "What is the positive side of the Obama presidency?" Well there are a few groups that should celebrate. For my fellow constitutional and second amendment patriots, Obama is the greatest gun salesman in history. Over 70 million guns have been purchased since Obama took office. For my fellow fiscal conservatives and capitalists, Obama is the greatest gold salesman ever. Conservatives love gold. Gold after all is the antidote to a debt crisis and lack of confidence in a reckless or incompetent government. That's why record sums of gold were bought during the past 6 years. Obama is also the greatest thing to ever happen to print shop owners. While the rest of us are struggling to keep our heads above water, print shop owners can't keep up with the demand for "Going Out of Business" and "Home For Sale by Bank" signs. [more...]

Big Labor Conundrum

By Dave Bego

Over the past four decades, Big Labor has continued to see its membership shrink drastically as its leaders use the same failed tactics involving forced unionism. The argument that most workers are better off without unions today is supported by the fact that unions now represent approximately 11.3% of the total workforce and 6.6% of the private workforce, a steep fall from their heyday in 1945 when they represented about 35.5% of the workforce. Yet Big Labor has refused to change. Isn't the definition of insanity, "continuing to do the same thing, but expecting different results?" [more...]
