In November of 2016, I discussed a then new report indicating that “at least 100,000 people in America each year plead guilty to drug charges supported by police-conducted drug field tests that do not reliably indicate whether a substance tested is an illegal drug.”...
In his Wednesday evening speech to announce to the American people the continuation and potential intensification of his war against Iran, President Donald Trump conceded that as far as oil is concerned the war will bring no benefit for Americans. Instead, he said he...
Many of the often talked about potential Republican candidates to succeed Donald Trump in the presidency are supporters of Trump’s war against Iran. This includes two people at the top of many lists who are among the Trump administration’s most vocal Iran War...
Death and destruction continue to mount in the Middle East due to the Iran War that the United States and Israel governments initiated at the end of February. While Americans an ocean away have been spared the costs imposed directly by missile strikes and other...
A United States executive branch official evading answering questions at a congressional hearing is not a new thing. But, on February 11, Attorney General Pam Bondi took the evasion to a new level. There she was complaining that the House Judiciary Committee members...
In January, I wrote about Democrats in the United States Senate proposing a group of changes in US immigration enforcement. Listing some of the suggested changes, I summed them up as largely the adopting of restraints at the US government level “that have generally...
A high-level national security official in the Trump administration resigned from his position on Tuesday. National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent cited as the reason for his resignation that he “cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran.”...

Economist and investor Peter Schiff, speaking in the Wednesday episode of his Peter Schiff Show, gave an insightful rundown of some of the economic damage coming to America because President Donald Trump “decided that he was going to go to war with Iran” despite there...
Wars of choice, a plethora of changing tariffs and sanctions on countries across the world, and a historically high number of executive orders characterize the first year of Donald Trump’s second presidential term. And all this has been accomplished by the executive...

United States President Donald Trump is coming to resemble more and more the kooky and dangerous characters who led the US into nuclear war in Stanley Kubrick’s film Dr. Strangelove. It is black humor in real life. The craziest example may be President Trump telling...
President Donald Trump, unlike his predecessor in office Joe Biden, talks with reporters quite frequently. In those press conferences and other interactions, Trump makes some misstatements of fact. To an extent it makes sense to cut him some slack regarding...
