Lindsey Graham was a degenerate and a disgrace, even if viewed entirely within the context of his public life.

De mortuis nihil nisi bonum, goes the adage of the ancient Romans that every schoolboy knows. Regrettably, in the case of the recently departed Senator Lindsey Graham finding laudatory words is a nearly impossible task. George  youtube in calling Graham "a perfectly revolting specimen, and a poor excuse for a human being." Galloway also ventured some very cogent speculations about the circumstances and causes of Graham's truly unexpected and otherwise not easily explicable death.

Despite regularly denouncing the rising socialist menace, President Trump has been pursuing a policy arguably just as, if not more, dangerous to liberty and prosperity as anything proposed by Zohran Mamdani or Bernie Sanders: using government funds to purchase partial ownership of private companies.

The Trump administration has obtained ownership interests of approximately 27 billion dollars in 30 companies since January of 2025.

True "peace candidates" in American politics are almost all gone, replaced by warmongers with megaphones and dangerously inflated delusions of grandeur. The question arises - is Trump one of them ?

It's common knowledge that Donald Trump always came across as the "peace candidate". His sweeping criticism of America's "forever wars" (particularly in the Middle East) reinforced the image of a realpolitik, no-nonsense politician with a crystal-clear vision for a firmly reformed US foreign policy that would ensure global peace.

"You had to live-did live, from habit that became instinct-in the assumption that every sound you made was overheard, and, except in darkness, every movement scrutinized."-George Orwell, 1984

While Americans remain transfixed by the political circus-cheering for their preferred party, jeering at the opposition, obsessing over every manufactured outrage and waiting for the next spectacle-the Surveillance State continues its steady march forward.

The natural duty and right to educate your children according to your beliefs can easily be lost, once again, if we are not vigilant.

In the fall of 1974, new "language arts" textbooks appeared throughout the school system in Kanawha County, West Virginia. They fostered a new value system, different from traditional morality.

Parents were upset that open-ended questions like "When is it okay to steal?" were suggested as teacher discussion topics in schoolbooks.

In my younger days conservatives and libertarians contrasted government unfavorably with private business. Government consisted of black hat guys and business of white hat guys. If government won, tyranny would be the result. If business won, liberty would stay alive.

Conservatives and libertarians saw power as something that government wanted, but not business.

n my previous article I wrote about the fact that, from the perspective of political science, the evidence shows that the so-called "economic elite" dominate a "biased pluralist" system of governance.

We live in nation states that operate as functional oligarchies.

Hiding behind the anonymity afforded to them by the major investment houses and their think tanks-using the Chatham House rule-oligarchs govern largely unseen.

Lindsey Graham is dead. At least that's one good thing. No matter what else happens today, they can't take that away from us.

The only positive thing about the Iran war heating up again is that Lindsey Graham won't be around to enjoy it.

The bloodthirsty South Carolina senator breathed his last on Saturday, succumbing to what his office describes as "a brief and sudden illness" after a political career dedicated to promoting wars, airstrikes and proxy conflicts at every possible opportunity.

Suivons la chronologie. Selon la version officielle : appel au 911 depuis son domicile à Washington D.C. à 20h30 (heure de l'Est) le 11 juillet pour suspicion d'arrêt cardiaque. Il serait "décédé à son domicile".

C'est absurde !

Analysons donc la chronologie. Le sénateur Graham est arrivé à Kiev entre 9h45 et 10h45, heure locale, le 10 juillet. Le train qu'il a pris en provenance de Pologne est parti de Varsovie à 18h15, heure locale, le 9 juillet.

Israël répand la fausse information selon laquelle l'Iran voudrait le tuer.

Il y a un aspect positif à avoir Donald J. Trump comme président : au cours d'une semaine normale, il dit ou fait un certain nombre de choses incroyablement stupides qui donnent envie de sourire, voire d'éclater de rire. Malheureusement, le plaisir s'arrête peu après, lorsqu'on se rappelle que cette folie pure et simple ne se contente pas de détruire la Maison Blanche et une grande partie du district de Columbia.

Pedro Sánchez met en garde Donald Trump contre toute nouvelle tromperie comme lors de la guerre en Irak en 2003.

Pedro Sánchez a prononcé des mots forts à l'attention de Donald Trump. Il y a vingt-trois ans, les États-Unis ont entraîné l'Espagne dans la guerre en Irak. Ils invoquaient la présence d'armes de destruction massive chez Saddam Hussein.

Murray N. Rothbard was a system builder in the mode of Ludwig von Mises, Frank H. Knight, and Friedrich A. Hayek. Like these eminent economists, Rothbard concluded that mastery of pure economic theory alone does not get one very far. Social, economic, and political problems are intertwined and complex and require a grand theory to address them.

There is a good thing about having Donald J Trump as president and that is how during a normal week he will say or do a number of incredibly stupid things that make one want to smile or even laugh outright. Unfortunately, however, the fun stops shortly after that point when one recalls that the outright insanity is not only destroying the White House and much of the District of Columbia.

This is mainly about profit and posturing, but there's also a strategic restructuring element to it. Namely, Washington DC sees such deals as a way to hit (at least) two birds with one stone. It keeps the Kremlin busy (America's main military adversary), while draining the EU's coffers (which the Trump administration sees as its second most challenging economic opponent, right after China).

Without demarcation, Vance has blended into an administration that is terrorizing the world financially, economically and militarily. From Greenland, to Latin America to West Asia to Africa and the Arabian Peninsula.

DEVOUTLY AND LOUDLY do various media organs of the establishment-CNN, The War Street Journal, The Hill, Politico or Israel's Axios-dazzle you with flattering depictions of JD Vance's foreign-policy stance, almost always based on unnamed sources, which have conveniently slithered out of dank corners, at this point of the election cycle.

Israel has such contempt for its American puppet doll, into which Israeli operative President Donald Trump has turned a once proud United States, that US Representative Ro Khanna and his fact-finding delegation in the West Bank were detained by criminal "Israeli settlers" armed with US Army machine guns who had no right to be in what remains of Palestine's West Bank.

Le mot qui me vient à l'esprit pour qualifier les États-Unis à l'occasion de leur 250e anniversaire est "cruauté". Il existe bien sûr d'autres mots qui pourraient décrire un pays d'une telle taille, d'une telle puissance et d'une telle diversité.

De l'Afghanistan à l'Iran : comment sa présidence dévoile l'essoufflement de la puissance américaine et ouvre la voie vers un monde post-occidental

Introduction

Il est des ironies historiques qui ne se révèlent qu'une fois les passions retombées. Les grandes ruptures de l'Histoire ne sont presque jamais perçues au moment même où elles se produisent.

"Des enfants ont été assassinés dès les premiers jours de la guerre illégale et absurde de Trump, qui a semé le chaos dans le monde entier", a déclaré la députée Yassamin Ansari.

La députée démocrate Yassamin Ansari (Démocrate-Arizona), qui avait déposé une motion de destitution contre le secrétaire au Pentagone Pete Hegseth en début d'année, a réitéré son appel à sa démission mercredi, suite à la révélation que de hauts responsables militaires américains avaient ignoré les avertissements concernant la fiabilité de leurs informations de ciblage avant d'autoriser le bombardement d'une école iranienne, tuant plus de 150 personnes, principalement de jeunes enfants.
