Abolish the Department of Homeland Security
The Trump transition team on Wednesday announced that he is nominating South Dakota governor Kristi Noem as the next head of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). In the coming weeks, we’ll hear a lot about Noem’s personal politics and origins. We’ll also hear about how the DHS is, as the AP puts it, “one of the biggest government agencies that will be integral to his vow to secure the border and carry out a massive deportation operation.” Unfortunately, all this misses the most important point about the DHS which is that the DHS was invented in 2002 to justify more … Continue reading

Return of the Neocons—Trump Appoints Staunch Supporters of Americas Forever Wars to Serve in His Cabinet
Going into the November 5th election, I predicted if the Democrats didn’t cheat, President-Elect Donald J. Trump would win 31 states with 312 votes and win the popular vote by 3% and the GOP would hold the House and pick up the Senate and that is exactly what happened. Trump’s election as the 47th President of the United States has given hope to tens of millions of Americans that his new administration will act to end Biden’s proxy wars with Russia and Iran and will steer clear of an all-out war with the PRC when they blockade China likely sometime early next … Continue reading

A Prophet Among Bishops
The autumn sky above the old shot-and-beer city was a deep and endless blue. Woodsmoke hung in the air and small boats chugged out purposeful routes on waterways. The Ravens are playoff-bound, and the youth-strapped Orioles made it to the postseason again. All was right on Baltimore’s harbor Wednesday—perfect even—as joggers politely zig-zagged through the 200 or so folks who’d gathered to pray the Glorious Mysteries of the Rosary alongside the world’s loneliest bishop. Sunlight poured onto the face of Joseph Strickland when he rose from the concrete after leading the Catholic blue-collar symphony in the Salve Regina. Leaves scraped the … Continue reading

Kennedy’s Nomination to Lead HHS Answers His Prayers – and Mine
Late yesterday, as I was finishing a hike in the Catskills, I received word that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. had been nominated to serve as Secretary of Health and Human Services. Kennedy’s prayers were answered. So were mine. In a video Kennedy posted on YouTube two weeks ago, the newly nominated candidate for Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) tells a Tucker Carlson Live audience, “For 19 years, since 2005, I have spent 30 minutes praying every day . . . I ask God … to put me in a position where I could end the chronic disease … Continue reading

Why I Predict that Trump Will Fire His National Security Advisor, Mike Waltz
(I was, I now recognize, unintentionally deplatformed here because Substack had switched to a no-human totally automated system for enabling writers to sign in, and it led in circles, so I haven’t been able to sign in ever since October 12th.

Trumps Picks Are All Neocon Warhawks Ferociously Devoted to Israel
Trump’s hawkish lineup is starting to look like a reunion for the worst of US interventionists. The man who said ‘no wars’ hired a cabinet that’s clearly thirsting for the next one. @ghida_fakhry It’s not Trump’s pro-Israel cabinet. It’s Israel’s pseudo-American cabinet. Alon Mizrahi @alon_mizrahi Awww ! It’s over before it even started! Nick@NickJ132388 If George W. Bush was elected to a third term in office, this is what his cabinet would look like. Rubio, Waltz, Stefanik, Hegseth. Not a peacenik among them. Not an antiwar candidate among them. Not even a non-interventionist among them. Every single pick is a … Continue reading

Has Matt Gaetz Been Set-up for Eviction from Public Life?
I have had a horrible thought. Of all of Trump’s appointees, Matt Gaetz and Robert Kennedy will be the most difficult to get confirmed. And Gaetz has resigned from the House of Representatives where he is the most effective member against the ruling establishment. Was his appointment as Attorney General a trick to get him out of public life? Robert Kennedy’s appointment was said to be in doubt because he would be hard to confirm, but so would Gaetz. Gaetz’s high profile powerful position scares to death the corrupt Justice (sic) Department, the corrupt FBI, the corrupt Democrats, and the … Continue reading

Fourth Time the Pentagon Is Faking the Books for Ukraine
For a fourth time the Pentagon is ‘finding money’ outside of the budget that can be spend on Ukraine. I had previously noticed three occasions in which the Pentagon, on order of the Biden administration, used some or ‘accounting error’ gimmicks to ‘find’ more money for Ukraine. Pentagon Again Applies Budget Lies To Deliver More Weapons To Ukraine – Jul 26 2024, MoA The piece referred to three relevant news reports: Exclusive: Pentagon accounting error overvalued Ukraine weapons aid by $3 billion – May 19 2023, Reuters Pentagon accounting error provides extra $6.2 billion for Ukraine military aid – June 20 2023, AP Pentagon finds another … Continue reading

Here Come the Awful Neocon Trump Appointments
The first Trump term was notable for countless terrible appointments Trump made. This was true in terms of both politics and policy. On the political end, Trump appointed people who routinely sought to undermine him politically. Many of Trump’s own appointees would go on to campaign against Trump in 2020 and 2024. Trump’s more clueless followers assured us that this was all, somehow, 4-D chess. Of course, it wasn’t. The 4-D chess trope has always been, as the kids say, “copium.” On the policy end, Trump’s appointments were even worse. Neocon warmongers like Nikki Haley, John Bolton, and Mike Pompeo—and … Continue reading

How Gas and Grocery Prices Shaped the US Election Outcome
There is every reason to be thankful for the Harris no-go last week, but also absolutely no case to get giddy about the prospects for a second Trumpian term, either. At best, what lies ahead is a wasted four years on the policy front, as Washington is likely to become embroiled in an even more acrimonious melee between the TDS and MAGA polarities of American politics. Indeed, contrary to the excitement currently extant in many quarters of Team Garbage it needs be recognized that what happened was not the vindication of Donald Trump. There was no mandate for MAGA or … Continue reading

The Great Dangers of Statins
The more I study science, and particularly medicine, the more I come to see how often fundamental facts end up being changed so that a profitable industry can be created. Recently I showed how this happened with blood pressure, as rather than causing arterial damage, high blood pressure is a response to arterial damage that ensures damaged arteries can still bring blood to the tissues and, in turn, rather than helping patients, aggressively lowering blood pressure can be quite harmful. In this article, I will look at the other half of the coin, the Great Cholesterol Scam—something that harms so many Americans … Continue reading
