Breaking down the coming $20 trillion debt Tsunami

Tony Fauci should be in a prison cell in Wuhan right now given how much responsibility he bears for destroying US government finances. This guy was one of the chief architects of the hysteria that took over the US (and much of the world) back in 2020. Yet he now admits, according to

John Kerry and the “Thirty Tyrants” are hopelessly, hilariously ignorant

In the year 404 BC, after decades of chaotic and bloody conflict among ancient Greek city states in the Peloponnesian War, Athens finally surrendered to its rival Sparta.

A rational guide to America’s exasperating inertia

Rene Descartes probably wasn’t thinking about gargantuan budget deficits and a $34 trillion national debt when he published Principles of Philosophy in the year 1644.

Yesterday Senator Elizabeth Warren used a Wall Street oversight hearing to whine about cryptocurrency.
