The recent decisions by the conservative U.S. Supreme Court (SCOTUS) at the end of its 2024 term are of significant importance in the realm of regulatory reform.

The 2024 presidential election is being manipulated by New York, which is using its legal system as a front organization to ensure President Joe Biden prevails over former President Trump, the candidate of the more conservative states (“red states”). More concerning, however, is that the actions of the state of New York are part of…
Congress is again fighting over the funding of undeclared wars or U.S. proxies (Ukraine, Israel) involved in wars in which the U.S. asserts an interest. The U.S. has been involved in 32 similar-type wars since the Korean War in 1950. The U.S. has been absent from war only 14 of the 73 past years. More…

As governments, businesses, financial institutions, environmental groups, and the radical left are consumed with anxiety over climate change, they seem to ignore every other issue confronting humanity. Or—is their use of climate change a false narrative to hide their real intent? The recent baffling actions by governments in Sri Lanka and the Netherlands point to…
