Norbert Michel The Trump administration isn’t exactly known for doing things by the book, but insulting the person they hope saves them from their own policies seems especially strange. Then again, after asking “Who is the U.S.’s bigger enemy: Federal Reserve Chair Jay Powell or Chinese leader Xi Jinping?,” calling Powell “Mr. Too Late, a major loser,” isn’t the strangest thing the president has done in the past few months. , As many people have pointed out, publicly […]
All of Kellogg’s underlying assumptions lacked any basis in reality. Yet Trump seemingly took them on trust. Political warfare in Washington is endemic. But the body count at the Pentagon has started to rise precipitously. Three of Secretary of Defence Hegseth’s top advisors were placed on leave, and then fired. The war continues, with the Secretary now in the firing line. Why this matters is that the Hegseth attrition comes amid fierce internal debates in the Trump administration about Iran […]
(5656) Barnes Law School: Due Process & Illegal Immigrants – VivaBarnesLaw Community Not only is Robert Barnes a master litigator and top-notch attorney but one of the most in depth, articulate, well read and street-smart experienced political analysts in the nation. Whether it involves the institutionalized criminal machine cartels of the Democrats and Republicans or the deep state, he is a true polymath reminiscent of Murray N. Rothbard in his power elite analysis of Realpolitik. What process is […]
Some of you may have seen this. But if I didn’t share it, after everything you and I went through, I’d be guilty of some sort of malpractice. The page at Covid.gov, which redirects to a page on the White House website, now argues that the Covid “mitigation” efforts were useless and based more on superstition than science. (I know I have subscribers who will say the “lab leak” controversy, prominently featured on the page, is a red […]
Justice Samuel Alito protests that the U.S. Supreme Court acted “hastily and prematurely” when it issued an unusual late-night order on Friday blocking the Trump administration from using the Alien Enemies Act to carry out a new batch of deportations. “I refused to join the Court’s order,” Alito wrote in dissent in A.A.R.P. v. Trump, “because we had no good reason to think that, under the circumstances, issuing an order at midnight was necessary or appropriate.” Notably, only […]
In Friday’s decision in Vitagliano v. Weiner, by N.Y. appellate judges Gerald Whalen, John Curran, Donald Greenwood, and Lynn Keane, Vitagliano sued alleging that Weiner had sexually assaulted her; Weiner counterclaimed “for defamation premised on a social media ‘story’ posted by [Vitagliano] in which she asserted that defendant ‘is a rapist.’” Vitagliano tried to get Weiner’s counterclaim dismissed early, under New York’s anti-SLAPP statute, which is designed to quickly dispose of legally insufficient claims based on speech on […]
I’m relatively new to austrian economics and have only read some of Mises, Hazlitt and Sowell. Austrian economist reject mathematical models over praxeology, falling from the mainstream after Hayek’s death (unfortunately). Can mathematical models be used to complement praxeology? Do austrians accept or at least recognize models from other schools of thought (everything but Keynes I’m assuming)? Do austrians still use these mathematical models? submitted by /u/Fearless_Rope_3037 [link] [comments]
By Christopher Puplava, CRPC® Apr 8, 2025 – Capital tends to flow where it’s best treated. We may be witnessing a major shift in global capital flows, first sparked by the Biden administration’s weaponization of the U.S. dollar and SWIFT system and now with…
