As the woke virus spreads across American society faster than Covid, baseball – supposedly the national pastime – has been turned into yet another cesspool of sanctimony, hypocrisy, and sheer stupidity. In fact the recent trend toward major-league descent into political desolation is being fed by a deeper, more protracted legacy of institutional corruption and... Read More
How the Democrats Learned to Love Big Brother
The mounting Democratic assault on free speech is finally producing blowback – most lately, from a bill proposed by California State Senator Melissa Melendez to protect diversity of political belief and affiliation. Her much-overdue legislation (Senate bills 238 and 249) are together known as the Diversity of Thought Act, which seeks to modify both California... Read More
The new Joe Biden presidency is being celebrated across the political and media culture as an epic change from Trump dictatorial madness to Biden democratic normalcy – a time when honesty, decency, stability, and, yes, science finally return to American politics.

Could an American socialism, historically-marginalized up to the present, finally end up as a genuine possibility?... Read More

Among the most sordid periods of American history was the systematic political repression directed against leftists, Communists, labor activists, and other “subversives” – the McCarthyism of peak Cold War years spanning the late 1940s to late 1950s. The merciless ideological crusade associated with Joe McCarthy, junior senator from Wisconsin otherwise identified as “Tailgunner Joe”, was... Read More
The ascent of Joe Biden and his neocon “promoters of democracy” to the White House likely means renewed attention to the idea of Color Revolutions once thought to bring liberation to nations under the heel of dictators. First in line for this latest geopolitical blessing could be Belarus, already site of protracted street protests in... Read More
Nearly one year into the COVID pandemic, even a modicum of critical thinking should tell us that lockdown politics as practiced in the United States is an unmitigated disaster, and with no end in sight. The reference here to lockdown politics is meant to signify a particularly assaultive, tyrannical set of government policies that in... Read More
In the wake of recent political dramas in Belarus – a lopsided and contested presidential election, massive street protests, agitated reactions from both Russia and the European Union – it seems we might be on the verge of another infamous Color Revolution. After all, regime changes promoted by the United States and NATO have become... Read More
