  An Assassin Showed Just How Angry America Really Is The murder of UnitedHealth Care CEO Brian Thompson was brutal. The reactions were telling. Elite disdain for the rule of law is leading to a society that is spinning out of control. Matt Stoller In his speech for the Sherman Antitrust Act in 1890, Senator John Sherman of Ohio made a number of legal points about how to understand competition. But the thrust of his argument was about law and order, for the specter of violence was hanging over a nation that had within living memory experienced a massive and traumatic civil war.

  Death of a Salesman A Complex Tragedy Librarian of Celaeno On the morning of December 4th, at 6:45 AM, Brian Thompson, CEO of United Healthcare, was murdered in Times Square as he was on his way to a shareholder meeting. At the time this is being written, the identity of the killer is unknown, and the motive yet to be definitively determined.

In Biden-Harris Twilight Zone America, black is white, and white is bad. Trygve E. Wighdal A Soon-to-Be-Required Woke Statement of Inappropriateness For a neutral reader, the following article may come across as too extreme, lacking a balanced perspective, and relying heavily on emotionally charged language and conspiracy-laden rhetoric. The absence of nuanced argumentation and a reliance on politically charged buzzwords like "DIE Woke" could alienate readers not already aligned with the author’s views. They already know—and condone—that black is white, and white is bad. From Open Borders to Bloodshed The regime allowed million of ‘immigrants’ enter our country illegally. Being an immigrant myself, this drives me mad—I had to wait a total of 17 months for my political asylum process to be thorough...

  Growing the Surveillance State: Drones, Facial Recognition, AI Enlisted to Fight Crime but at What Cost? By  Jesse Smith Big Brother is at it again. With rising crime as the backdrop, New York City Mayor Eric Adams is growing the surveillance state with a plan to use drones to fight crime in Central Park. Sadly, neither rising crime or increasing surveillance are unique to NYC, as both are becoming global trends indicative of a much greater agenda. Gone are the days when “Robocop” and “Skynet” were just dystopian ideas for Hollywood blockbusters. The dark, distant future those films portrayed is now  a present reality . In classic problem-reaction-solution fashion, NYC Mayor Eric Adams and the NYPD are preparing to deploy surveillance drones to stop lawlessness in Central Park. According to the  New York Post , the drones could be patrolling the skies very soon: Central Park frolickers could soon find themselves under Big Brother surveillance from NYPD drones flyin...
