Now the word "commune"

Now the word commune, which means to most enlightened people “to talk with (God)” has been wrongly identified with the godless forces of Communism. This is one reason why I am explaining the beautiful God-meaning behind that word to counteract this destructive intent. Do you see? As the edge of a razor divides the way, perfect balance ever walking on the edge thereof, so I call to your attention that I am an advocate of cosmic jurisprudence and a secret agent of light itself (which governs so perfectly the ebb and flow of the tides, the diastole and systole of the heart, the diurnal... read more

When Will The Stars Shine Again In Burkina Faso?

On 30 September 2022, Captain Ibrahim Traoré led a section of the Burkina Faso military to depose Lieutenant Colonel Paul-Henri Sandaogo Damiba, who had seized power in a coup d’état in January. The second coup was swift, with brief clashes in Burkina Faso’s capital of Ouagadougou at the president’s residence, Kosyam Palace, and at Camp Baba Sy, the military administration’s headquarters. Captain Kiswendsida Farouk Azaria Sorgho declared on Radiodiffusion Télévision du Burkina (RTB), the national broadcast, that his fellow captain, Traoré, was now the head of state and the armed f... read more

Biden’s Marijuana Policy Frees No One

Joe Biden’s announcement that he would pardon all federal convictions for possession of marijuana was quickly met with excitement. It isn’t hard to understand why that would be the case. Everyone knows that the United States is the world’s biggest jailer, with more than 2 million people behind bars, and that the various “wars on drugs” contributed to this dubious distinction. But upon examination, the announcement was found to be meaningless. Anyone who thought that thousands of people would be freed from jail was in for a surprise. Most convictions in this country occur at the st... read more

American Officials Are Trying To Change The Definition Of Antisemitism

In what must be an alarming surge of antisemitism, the council of Montgomery County, Maryland, is planning a vote to adopt a new definition of antisemitism. But why is there a need for a new definition? Antisemitism is racism directed against Jews, pure and simple. So what is so wrong with this definition that Montgomery County feels the need to have a vote to adopt a new one? What is wrong in this county that requires this vote?

Responsibility for DOJ. FBI corruption

Mike Miller: In less than two years, Joe Biden has proved to be the most incompetent president in U.S. history, intentionally creating crisis after crisis, from his war on the oil industry to the southern border crisis; and he’s now attempting to match wits with Russian dictator Vladimir Putin’s threat to use nuclear weapons in Ukraine. Nobody’s done it “better” than Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr. — and that’s far from all.

Wall Street Lobbyists Admit Big Banks Don’t Plan To Honor Climate Pledges

Why The United States Imprisoned Venezuelan Diplomat Alex Saab

A year ago, October 16, the long arm of US extra-territorial judicial overreach abducted Alex Saab and threw him into prison in Miami, where the Venezuelan diplomat has languished ever since. The official narrative is that Saab had bilked the Venezuelans in a “vast corruption network” and the US as the world’s self-appointed cop was simply enforcing good business practices. However, commentary by Washington insiders corroborates that Saab’s “crime” was trying to obtain humanitarian supplies in legal international trade but in circumvention of the illegal US sanctions on Venezuela.... read more
