Why Is the IRS Sending Tax Returns So Late? You Might Be to Blame*Ethen Kim Lieser* *Tax Refund Problems, * These potentially sizeable payments were expected to start landing in eligible bank accounts last month—but apparently, most Americans are still left sitting empty-handed. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *Current estimates indicate that for a single taxpayer who is eligible for the $10,200 tax break and is in the 22 percent tax bracket, they would receive $2,200. For married couples, that figure would double. It appears that the Internal Revenue Service is once again mired in a no-win situation. Much like the hiccups-filled disburse... read more

Covid-19: Why The Lab Leak Theory Must Be Formally Investigated*Virginie Courtier, Etienne Decroly* *Coronavirus, Asia* Real or not, only a thorough investigation will reveal whether the lab leak theory has any legs. A year and a half into the pandemic, we still do not know exactly where the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes Covid-19, came from. The prevailing view so far has been that the virus “spilled over” from bats into humans. But there are increasing calls to investigate the possibility that it emerged from a lab in Wuhan, China, where Covid first appeared at the end of 2019. So what do we know for sure, and what do we need still to fin... read more

Bad News: The U.S. Military's Overall Power Is Declining (That's No Shock)*Robert Farley* *U.S. Military, United States* America might not be quite as powerful as in the past. However, it is still the undisputed global power and is more than secure. *Here's What You Need To Know: *The appropriate question should be “will the offset (and various other policy initiatives) help maintain U.S. military superiority?”, not “will it help ensure U.S. military supremacy?” Last week, Air Force General Frank Gorenc argued that the airpower advantage the United States has enjoyed over Russia and China is shrinking.

Central Asia Can Help Biden Counter China & Manage Afghanistan*Kamran Bokhari* *Afghanistan, China, Central Asia* Coming up with a long-term mechanism on how to deal with Afghanistan post-withdrawal should be the starting point for strategically enhancing ties with the region that sits at the heart of the Eurasian landmass. Secretary of State Antony Blinken is wrong when he says that the United States is exiting Afghanistan because it needs to commit resources on countering China. The two goals are not necessarily mutually exclusive of one another. On the contrary, Washington can do both by strategically engaging with Central Asia. Reliable... read more

America Needs Clarity on the China Cold War*David Keene, Dan Negrea* *China, Asia* To win this multi-decade contest, the United States must organize a whole-of-society effort at home and also lead the Free World. The first step is to recognize that it is a “Cold War.” And to call it that. The United States needs to be clear that its sharp conflict with Communist China is a new cold war. Today’s China is a revisionist and expansionist totalitarian state whose leaders’ dream is a world they can dominate and reshape. That they are developing the power to make their dream a reality makes China not just a competitor or adversa... read more

5G Beast, Endocrine Disruptors and Dysgenics – the Depopulation Agenda is in Full ForceA 2018 study of birthrates in the United States found that births were down by 600,000 in just one year — and this is with 4G, and prior to the 5G Beast roll out beginning nationally in 2019 . Now the number of babies born in the U.S. dropped by 4% in 2020 compared with the previous year. The general fertility rate was 55.8 births per 1,000 women ages 15 to 44, reaching yet another record low. “This is the sixth consecutive year that the number of births has declined, down an average of 2% per year, and the lowest number of births since 1979,” the National Center for Health Statis... read more

The Most Important Truth about the Coming “New World Order” Almost Nobody is DiscussingA little over a year ago, before COVID-19, to bring up the subject of a "New World Order," or a "One World Government," was to be branded as a "conspiracy theorist," in spite of the fact that such global institutions as the World Economic Forum, the Rockefeller Foundation, and many other global institutions have been publishing materials on their view of the future for decades, and predicting things such as a major reduction of the world's population and a central world-wide government. Fast forward to today, June of 2021, and the idea is no longer so far-fetched, particularly for... read more

Stimulus Check News Flash: Just How Much Have They Helped?*Trevor Filseth* *Stimulus, * The part of society that was hardest hit by the pandemic, the lowest earners, will probably take the longest time to recover. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *The Biden administration, to its credit, has tried to focus his aid on those hardest hit by the pandemic.

There is no doubt that the COVID-19 pandemic has had extr... read more

Most often, cultural and political changes are terribly complex. It can be notoriously difficult to predict exactly where a trend will take us, and we can be mistaken.

"COVID, Learned Helplessness, And Control"*"COVID, Learned Helplessness, And Control"* by Peter Van Buren "In the post-vaccination era, why don’t people remove their masks? Learned helplessness, employed as a control tool. Learned helplessness is well-documented. It takes place when an individual believes he continuously faces a negative, uncontrollable situation and stops trying to improve his circumstances, even when he has the ability to do so. Discovering the loss of control elicits a passive reaction to a harmful situation. Psychologists call this a maladaptive response, characterized by avoidance of challenges and th... read more

Is the U.S. Navy Preparing to Counter China?*Kris Osborn* *military, Americas* The service still envisions a five-hundred-ship Navy as an aim point or goal toward which to strive. The Chinese Navy is already larger than the U.S. Navy, and on track to reach as many as five hundred ships by 2030, without even counting its militarized Coast Guard vessels. That means the U.S. Navy could find itself spread too thin in the event that concentrated Chinese maritime forces in the Pacific were to mount some kind of offensive or aggressive military action. The U.S. Navy places a massive priority upon operating forward in vital hots... read more

As an island nation that hasn’t taken part in a major conflict since the Second World War, Japan developed a rather impressive main battle tank (MBT) with its Type 10. This is also notable as Japan produced what can only be described as exceptionally poor tanks during World War II. During the Cold War the Japanese military developed new tanks, which were a serious step in the right direction from the underwhelming Type 97 “Chi-Ha” medium tanks, bu... read more

The makeshift alliance includes both left- and right-wing factions, as well as a small Islamist party. These disparate groups are united less by a shared policy vision than by their opposition to Netanyahu. The ouster is made possib... read more
