A brave man asks an lslamist:

“Why do you live in a white Christian country and not in your own country or an lslamic country?”

Most Republicans campaign like they are Thomas Massie and vote like they are Lindsey Graham

@David_Tracey @Barchart I would suggest we would be better served if you drop the ad hominem attacks and address the merits of the argument.

[Thomas Sowell Quotes @ThomasSowell]

Thomas is spot on when it comes to power and politics.

Reuters, the news agency that brings Americans so much of their news coverage about war, has a Palantir-like side business that receives $145 million in Pentagon contracts. At what point do we call Reuters a military contractor?

The year was 1983 and I was the auto and retail analyst at Fidelity. Peter Lynch was in his prime. #Fidelity

@kyle_sturtevant @judyshel While it sounds like a good idea, the history of the US issuing convertible gold bonds incudes the repudiation in 1933 and the Supreme Court’s Gold Clause Decisions in 1935 voiding the redeemability part.

He who makes the rules can change the rules.

Peter Thiel: "What has become 'science' is more dogmatic than the Catholic church was in the 17th century"

Watch as Bari Weiss tries desperately to get Thiel to criticize MAHA / RFK jr, and Thiel responds with a spectacular exposition of everything wrong with modern science.

AIPAC boasts about the most expensive and aggressive act of foreign election interference in American history, flaunting apartheid Israel's control over US politics

The unregistered foreign lobby just shelled out over $100 million on its campaign to elect genocidal war lackeys

[Thomas Sowell Quotes @ThomasSowell]

Even before the rise of today's many social activist movements, T. S. Eliot understood such people and their priorities.

Writing in 1950, he said: “Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm—but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.”

There is little hope of changing such people. But what the rest of us can do is stop gullibly accepting their ego trips as idealistic efforts for others. Above all, we need to stop letting them morally intimidate us into silence about the actual consequences of their crusades.

The time is long overdue for us to insist that they put up or shut up, in terms of hard evidence about results, rather than the pious hopes that make them feel so good.

Never forget what the Fed took from us - the dollar has lost 97% of its value.

[Thomas Sowell Quotes @ThomasSowell]

An even-handed application of rules is a demanding job and a heavy responsibility. Even an umpire cannot have “compassion” or “sensitivity.” He can either call them honestly as he sees them or prostitute his profession by leaning toward pitchers or batters or base runners.

When courts of law become courts of political correctness, those who suffer are not just those who lose particular cases. The whole society loses. Law exists for a reason—and that reason is not so that judges can indulge their own egos or flatter themselves that their squeamishness is a higher morality.

Your mind may have opinions..
But you don't need to agree with them.

As the need to agree with your opinions becomes less compulsive— so does the mind's tendency to churn out opinions..!
