Donald & the Dollar
John Connally, President Nixon's Secretary of the Treasury, once remarked to the consternation of Europe's financial elites over America's inflationary monetary policy, that the dollar "is our currency, but your problem." Times have certainly changed and it now appears that the dollar has become an American problem. In a recent interview with the Wall Street … Continue reading Donald & the Dollar
Pope Francis Now International Monetary Guru
Neo-Marxist Pope Francis As the new year dawns, it seems the current occupant of St. Peter’s Chair will take on a new function which is outside the purview of the office that the Divine Founder of his institution had clearly mandated. Besides being a self proclaimed expert on global warming and a vociferous advocate of … Continue reading Pope Francis Now International Monetary Guru
On the 225th Anniversary of the United States’ Bill of Rights
This December, 2016, marks the 225th anniversary of the ratification of the first ten amendments to the US Constitution which would become known as the "Bill of Rights."

Pope Francis is at it Again
As if there are not enough sufficient reasons for right thinking individuals to want a Donald Trump Presidency, one of the biggest is that it would be a direct and quite necessary rebuke and humiliation of the purported head of the Catholic Church, Pope Francis. Bergoglio has once again injected his neo-Marxist self into areas … Continue reading Pope Francis is at it Again
Donald Trump & The Passion of the Christ
If Donald Trump can somehow defeat the Wicked Witch of Chappaqua despite vote rigging, outlandish media bias, backstabbing by his own party’s elites, and opposition of Wall Street, his victory may be the most serious setback for The Establishment since, perhaps, the release of Mel … Continue reading Donald Trump & The Passion of the Christ
It’s Still the Media, Stupid!
The US Presidential campaign has demonstrated once again that the mainstream mass media is still the dominant force and arbitrator of political events and if it is successful in pushing the Wicked Witch of Chappaqua past the finish line this November, it may have achieved its greatest triumph. During the campaign’s stretch run, the mainstream … Continue reading It’s Still the Media, Stupid!
“Pope Francis:” Traitor to Western Civilization
There has been no greater advocate of mass Muslim migration into Europe than the purported head of the Catholic Church, "Pope Francis." At a recent conference, he urged that “asylum seekers” be accepted, “through the acts of mercy that promote their integration into the European context and beyond.”* Jorge Bergoglio is the “purported pope" of … Continue reading “Pope Francis:” Traitor to Western Civilization
