‘Transnational Repression’ – FBI ‘Very Concerned’ by Illegal Chinese ‘Police Stations’ in US and Abroad
ANALYSIS – Highlighting the real domestic security threat by China, the FBI is apparently ‘very concerned’ about and investigating the alleged Chinese Communist (Chicom) police stations likely set up illegally in New York, among other cities. This is yet another domestic security failure by a Biden administration obsessed with Jan. 6 and persecuting conservatives instead […]
The COVID Book You Never Knew You Needed
Founder of the Brownstone Institute shares his thoughts on “Gone Viral…” Read the entire thing here at Brownstone.org and then go buy the book! Sometimes, even now, even after writing a book and probably a thousand or more articles on the topic, and following it every step of the way, it still feels like I dreamed the […]
What the FTX Collapse Tells Us About Regulators and ESG
The $32 billion collapse of cryptocurrency exchange FTX came seemingly without warning. Yet it provides plenty of warnings about some ongoing trends in corporate governance.

Democracy, Defend It! Don’t Lose It! Ugh, What is It?
As the midterm elections approached the American people were told over and over that America stands to lose its “democracy” if MAGA Republicans take over Congress.

Magpul’s company motto ought to be, “Come for the magazines, stay for the furniture.” They have become quite revolutionary with their products, both new and old. One example of this is the AFG, or angled foregrip. Magpul invented an entirely new way to grip the weapon with the AFG, which, incidentally, was the first angled foregrip […]
Should This Decision Disqualify Trump in 2024?
‘Fifteen days to stop the spread’ turned into an eternity. March 29, 2020, is a day that should live in infamy. The national mitigation plan against Covid-19, “15 days to stop the spread,” was about to expire. In the Rose Garden, President Trump declared that lockdowns would continue for another 30 days. I tweeted: “President Trump […]

Attorney General Merrick Garland is set to name a special counsel to oversee the Department of Justice’s two criminal probes into former President Donald Trump.

Biden Sees No Need for New Cold War – Too Bad Xi Didn’t Get the Message
It’s long been clear that mainland China is not a friendly nation to the West or to bedrock liberal values. There are still strong pockets of denial about this – primarily among corporations, which have lashed their (and their shareholders’) financial futures to China’s mast. But as former Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd writes, the […]
