“From Democracy to Pathocracy: The Rise of the Political Psychopath”
*“From Democracy to Pathocracy: The Rise of the Political Psychopath”* By John W. Whitehead “Politicians are more likely than people in the general population to be sociopaths. I think you would find no expert in the field of sociopathy/psychopathy/antisocial personality disorder who would dispute this… That a small minority of human beings literally have no conscience was and is a bitter pill for our society to swallow - but it does explain a great many things, shamelessly deceitful political behavior being one.” - Dr. Martha Stout, clinical psychologist and former instructor at Ha... more »
The Economy: "The Last Time This Happened Was in 2008"
*"The Last Time This Happened Was in 2008"* by Bill Bonner "The Dow fell about 100 points yesterday. It’s not hard to see why… Factory output dropped the most since last August, led by declining auto sales. Meanwhile, housing starts are at a four-month low. Bank loans are slipping. Commercial property is ‘rolling over’. Consumers have tapped out. And the Fed’s GDP growth estimates are getting lower and lower. But the biggest deal is that tax receipts are down, year over year, for the fourth month in a row. Taxes are real money. They’re not fake news like unemployment and inflation ... more »

President Trump’s Disappearance
[image: undefined] In my long experience in Washington, vice presidents did not make major foreign policy announcements or threaten other countries with war.

As far as I can tell from the numerous emails I receive from him, he is at work marketing his presidency. Once Trump won the election, I began receiving endless offers to purc... more »

Much Better At Making War

Alex Jones decides to prove he is not a fake lunatic by ranting that he is "real" while trying to drive a car. Well I'm convinced.
Courtesy of Right Wing News: *In a rambling message filmed from his car this morning, Alex Jones repeatedly insisted that he is not an actor—a characterization of Jones made by his own lawyer during an ongoing custody battle. * *Jones’ attorney recently said that the “InfoWars” broadcaster is simply “playing a character” on his conspiracy theory radio program.
