We live in a country whose citizenry have been, almost from the beginning of the Republic, carefully coached to observe all the requisite protocols. What that means, as a practical matter, is, quite simply, keeping religion and politics in separate compartments. In other words, Church and State must never be seen in the same room. That being the case, the very idea of a confessional society becomes an affront to both law and custom. For all the appeal it may have in theory, the actual reality of a Christian culture tends to make people nervous and unsure. Is this really something, they ask themselves, we want to organize our lives around? The prospect appears to be an unwelcome one.

This is especially true, I think, for native-born Americans, men and women whose sensibilities have been largely formed by the framers of the U.S. Constitution and the whole elaborate mythology that has grown up around it. To propose a model of governance along the lines of, say, Christopher Dawson’s vision, where faith and life go together because otherwise one is forced to live an almost schizophrenic life, provokes a certain amount of pushback. Why, it seems positively medieval. Certain disclaimers, therefore, will need to be made.

Much of the problem, it seems, turns on the word public, a pesky little thing that tends to set people on edge. And yet what the word itself signifies is something entirely natural and unavoidable; it should not in the least feel threatening to anyone. And that is the fact that every culture is nothing other than an outward sign of, an embodiment even, of faith, any faith, so long as it finds enfleshment in people’s lives. People need to see and to smell, to touch, taste, and hear the sounds of a culture. And so, what every culture consists of is nothing other than the reification of a people’s religion, which is as natural and necessary as the air we breathe.

Take that as a given, therefore, a nonnegotiable minimum, and the whole argument falls neatly into place. Christian Culture—Catholic Christendom, if you like—is simply what happens when a political society finds its animating and fundamental principle of unity in the public profession of the Catholic Thing.

Again, the operative word here is public. Which is to say, it has got to be given visible, palpable expression. It can never be a mere Platonic idea, as in the Methodist version of the Catholic Mass, in which the Real Presence of Christ becomes an entirely ethereal event at which a group of people come together to evoke memories of Jesus, awakening perhaps a warm fuzzy or two over a glass of grape juice. There is no existential import to the event at all. And, to be sure, in its absence nothing real will ever happen. Only a pale, etiolated symbol lifted up, shared among others but never offered to God. Never, as in the sacrificial setting of Roman Catholic worship, God offering God to God, which is the deepest meaning and application of the phrase in persona Christi.

So much then for the definition. And the disclaimer? It is very difficult for native born Americans to think like this, including a great many Catholic Americans, who almost invariably think of themselves as primarily and essentially Americans. And as for the so-called Catholic component, it is at best an accidental and fortuitous addition, a mere footnote, easily detachable from the main event.

And the main event? Wholesale Americanization of countless Catholic ethnic groups pouring into this country over the past couple of centuries, their memories of the homeland progressively bleached away in order to hasten the day of complete absorption into the American Way of Life. Among the saddest examples, surely, are all those wonderful Italians who braved an unknown ocean to get here, only to forget as promptly as possible the language of Dante.

The point is, we Americans do not ordinarily think in the categories of Christian Culture when navigating our way through the American experience. And not, heaven knows, because we happen to be less generous or sincere in the practice of our Christian religion. It is not a moral failing so much as it is a failure of imagination, an absentee historical sense, for which no one is to blame. It is simply because we Americans have spent roughly the past two and a half centuries in a place where the whole corporate and institutional life of the nation has developed without any explicit or public recourse to Catholic Christianity at all.

Our Founding Fathers, for all that their vision remains noble and pure, were not exactly driven by holy desire. They were not interested in spreading the Gospel or creating a Christian Commonwealth designed to help others reach the Kingdom of God. If anything, their religious persuasion tended to be deist, given over to a God who was no more than a Clockmaker, who got everything going, saw it all ticking happily away, and then pretty much retired to His celestial God-Cave.

Ours is the first nation under God which makes no real provision for God in its public life, owing to a great and sundering wall of separation between Church and State, religion and politics, faith and life. Isn’t this why, to use Professor Dawson’s phrase, “the historic reality of Christian Culture,” which is the outcome of a people’s consecration to God of the entirety of the temporal order, could not possibly have emerged from within the American historical experience? With the lamentable result, to be sure, of our having marginalized whole areas of human experience, areas left untouched by the richness of the intersection of faith and life, grace and nature, eternity and time. Because it is only there, as the poet Eliot reminds, that all the polarities come dramatically together.

There at the still point of the turning world…
Where past and future are gathered…
Except for the point, the still point
There would be no dance, and there is only the dance.

Has he not also reminded us that “A people without history is not redeemed from time,/For history is a pattern of timeless moments”?

We live in a society in which there are two and only two things that we must never talk about at parties and in public places. It is the great taboo tyrannizing over the world we inhabit, a world we ourselves have built in large part to avoid having to talk about them. And what are the two great unmentionables? Religion and politics. And yet they are the only two things in the world worth talking about. Worth fighting about, actually. “From quiet homes and first beginnings,” writes Hilaire Belloc, “Out to the undiscovered ends/There’s nothing worth the wear of winning/But laughter and the love of friends.”

It is from that world, a world configured to Christ, that we are likely to find such “laughter and friends.” Enough, certainly, to make “the wear of winning” not just worthwhile to have but both honorable and necessary to defend as well.

The disastrous jobs-numbers that were released on Friday August 1st, showing that the U.S. added only 73,000 jobs in July and a mere 106,000 jobs since May (while the U.S. economy needs to add 80,000 to 100,000 jobs each month in order to replace employees who leave the workforce for retirement or incapacity), mean that the enormous uncertainty that Trump’s tariffs have created for business planners — whose top concern is their supply-chains, which need to be planned months in advance of signing contracts with suppliers — are crashing the U.S. economy. I therefore had always had been expecting this collapse to happen, and was consequently very surprised by the favorable May and June numbers, but now they have been drastically revised downward, which suggests that the Bureau of Labor Statistics had been padding the employment numbers during those two months, and that its Commissioner had finally decided not to do it yet a third time, because that would only lead to an even bigger reality-deficit building up, and so the person would then definitely be investigated for having committed fraud. But, anyway, this supply-chain issue is the critically important one, though the U.S. press, for some reason, had been paying little attention to it. So, that problem has simply been quietly festering till now.

For example, if a supplier is in China (the biggest exporter to the U.S.) or in Mexico (the second-biggest exporter to the U.S.), then all of the unclarity till now, regarding what Trump’s tariffs would be on those countries, has made impossible for an American corporation to know whether or not to switch to importing from a different country — which would mean for the U.S. company to go through a possibly months-long searching-and-negotiating process, of finding and contracting with a different supplier, in a different country.

Trump did not start his second term on January 20th by announcing what his tariffs would be, but instead started, at that time, his own negotiating-process with all countries, in order to determine what his tariffs would be. Actually, he still is doing it. And he constantly is changing what his tariffs will be. He is thereby killing the American economy. Republicans in Congress, who have been voting for Trump’s bills, are going to have a lot of explaining to do, but the cake has, by now, already been baked for the 2026 mid-term elections; and, so, Trump will start 2027 with a Democratic-Party-led Congress, which will make Biden’s last two years in office look like a bipartisan holiday by comparison.

The announcement on August 1st by the Commissioner of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Erika McEntarfer, was immediately followed by Trump’s firing of her. President Biden had nominated McEntarfer in July 2023, but she didn’t enter office until after the U.S. Senate approved her nomination by a vote of 88 to 8 on 11 January 2024, and her first day in office was 29 January 2024. Ever since then, she was heading the agency. Prior to her, the agency had been headed by an interim Commissioner (not confirmed by the Senate), William J. Wiatrowski, for almost a year, and he takes over now, without Senate confirmation (which the law requires), again as an interim Commissioner. So, Trump will now be getting his numbers from Wiatrowski, who had been serving from 28 March 2023, to 28 January 2024, during Biden’s Administration (and is therefore, yet again, a Biden appointee). (Irrespective of whether McEntarfer had been, as Trump claimed, falsifying the numbers during Biden’s Presidency, his having waited till now to fire her is itself a black mark upon him; and, to the international financial community, the credibility of America’s financial reports has been severely damaged by the entire incident. It shows that — regardless of McEntarfer — “The Emperor has no clothes.”)

Trump’s having immediately fired McEntarfer sent shock waves throughout the global financial community, which compounded their shock earlier in the day from the drastically revised-downward prior published jobs figures from May and June; and the result from this double-whammy will be a global collapse in the confidence-level in U.S. Treasury bonds. We are consequently experiencing a turning-point downward in the U.S. as the world’s imperial power. The U.S. empire (almost all of Europe, almost all of the Western Hemisphere, plus Israel, Japan, South Korea, Philippines, and Australia) has reached its pinnacle, and the world-center is now definitely in Asia, especially if Russia, China, and Iran, will form a mutual-defense treaty, which will be especially important to defend against America’s NATO treaty organization. If it will, and if it invites into itself any member-nation of NATO that will exit NATO, then the prospects could be bright for the world. But, otherwise, the prospects are dark, because any empire during its declining phase intensifies its aggressiveness. Simply to passively wait for the U.S. empire to end would therefore likely mean that the increasingly-desperate-to-maintain-its-hegemony U.S. Government will become even more boldly aggressive than it already is. The likely outcome from that would, of course, be World War Three (the end of the world).

“Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, and, not knowing which to choose, long I stood, peering down both as far as I could, to where they disappeared in the undergrowth. … I took one, and that has made all the difference.” An abbreviation of the classic poem about decisions, Robert Frost’s “The Road Not Taken”

But that is hardly the only indication that Emperor Trump is so desperate as to be going crazy with his failures and with his ever-rising threats and retaliations:

Also on August 1st, Trump, on his Truth Social, posted the following in reply to a statement by Russia’s #2 leader Dmitry Medvedev that if the U.S. will push things too far and force a WW3, then Russia’s “Dead Hand” automated nuclear response to an American blitz attack will still decimate the U.S., and Trump announced there that, in retaliation to what he takes as a personal insult, he is now sending two nuclear submarines right up close to Russia; Trump was, apparently, affronted by Medvedev’s statement that a WW3 would have no winners:

Based on the highly provocative statements of the Former President of Russia, Dmitry Medvedev, who is now the Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation, I have ordered two Nuclear Submarines to be positioned in the appropriate regions, just in case these foolish and inflammatory statements are more than just that. Words are very important, and can often lead to unintended consequences, I hope this will not be one of those instances. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

The post Trump’s Effectiveness Has Now Been Shattered. Dems Will Win the Mid-Terms. appeared first on LewRockwell.

In recent years I’ve often thought that we, as a society, fail to appreciate how much our high living standard—our safety, creature comforts, and conveniences—are provided by an unseen and unsung army of skilled laborers.

Flip a switch and you have light; turn on a tap and you have clean water; adjust the thermostat and you have heat or AC; depress a lever and you flush the toilet. It wasn’t so long ago—a little over a century—that such conveniences were not available to even kings and emperors. Now most houses in the developed world are equipped with them.

Most of us take these comforts and conveniences—and hundreds of others—for granted. Likewise, we give little thought to the skilled workers who maintain them. If our civilization is going to maintain itself, we must have a large, skilled, and reliable workforce.

My recent trip home from Europe caused me to become concerned that airline maintenance departments are struggling to maintain their fleets of aging aircraft. For me, the result of mechanical problems was a comical experience of hassle and inconvenience. However, I fear that if airline maintenance departments are indeed understaffed with skilled and reliable people, the consequences could eventually be far more serious.

My journey began at the Vienna airport, where I zipped through security and quickly boarded my BA flight. I had a very tight connection in Heathrow, but it looked like we were going to push off on time.

Then the captain came on the PA. With pretty good Hugh Grant-bumbling British charm, he explained that the cargo door sensor was indicating the door was ajar, even though it seemed to be closed.

“But no worries, ladies and gentleman, the engineer will soon be here, put some magic spray on the thing, and then we’ll be off.”

The captain’s prophecy proved to be true, and we departed 25 minutes late. This would give me exactly 30 minutes on the ground in Heathrow to get to my connecting flight’s gate before boarding began.

We landed at Heathrow and pulled up to our gate. Glancing out a port window, I saw the jet-bridge. For some reason the aircraft had parked 70 yards from it, and it appeared to be the jet-bridge operator’s first day on the job.

Ever so slowly and halting, with multiple lateral corrections made with each foot advanced toward the aircraft, the jet-bridge seemed to be an eternity away from reaching us. Watching it inch forward was sheer agony. At last it made it to the plane and I got off and sprinted up the jet-bridge.

“Just follow the purple connections signs” said the stewardess as I set forth like Pheidippides running from Marathon to Athens.

Heathrow was apparently laid out by a drunk madman. My arrival gate might as well have been in another county, with a series of interminable corridors turning at right angles onto yet more interminable corridors.

At last I arrived at the security checkpoint just before the international departures section of Terminal 3. The line was long, but it moved fairly fast—until I arrived at the scanners. The lady directly in front of me was in her seventies and sitting in a wheelchair. A couple of security guys helped her out of her chair to hobble through the scanner, and she set off the alarm.

This initiated an extraordinary search of the poor old, disabled woman for weapons or explosives. The only rational explanation I could think of was that security was concerned that she was cognitively impaired and had been tricked into embedding C-4 on her person. Multiple scans of her limbs and swabbing of her hands for ammonium nitrate or whatever—all the while with me standing behind her, waiting for my turn to proceed through the scanner.

Finally I got through, but then the carry-on bag conveyor seized for no apparent reason. Two minutes elapsed, and then another two, and at last the belt started to move and my briefcase emerged, but then stopped again in plain sight but just beyond my reach—so close and yet so far away.

Finally it inched forward; I grabbed it and set off on the home stretch to my gate, which proved to be the furthest away in the entire terminal. I sprinted over half a mile before I finally reached it, a taste of rust in my mouth from running at maximum heart rate for about 5 minutes.

The flight was already boarding. I went my seat and tried to get some sleep for the remainder of the boarding process.

We took off at 11:00 a.m. sharp. About forty minutes into the flight, the cabin was prepared for meal service, and a pleasant feeling of well-being swept over me. I looked forward to eating lunch, as I had skipped breakfast and was hungry. After lunch, a long nap and then maybe a bit of reading. I reckoned I would, in just over eight hours, arrive in Dallas and have dinner with my mother that evening. It was a pleasant thought.

At 11:45, the captain came on the PR and said:

Folks, I am sorry to disturb you, but due to a mechanical problem, we cannot fly with this plane across the Atlantic, and we must return to London. I can assure you there is no danger, but for strict, regulatory reasons, we must take this precaution. We are about thirty minutes from London, and as soon as we are back on the ground, we should have additional information for you.

Thirty minutes elapsed, and then forty-five, and still the aircraft was at level flight at over thirty thousand feet. Clearly we weren’t flying back to London—at least not directly. A stewardess walked past.

“Excuse me, ma’am, but I don’t think we’re flying to London. Where are we flying?” I asked.

“We are flying to London, but first we must dump fuel because we are too heavy to land.”

Finally we landed in London. The captain came on the PA and explained in unusually formal English, suggesting a literary bent, that the AC packs on both engines—crucial for maintaining a comfortable cabin temperature and pressure—had failed. Additionally, the flight attendants had heard unusual mechanical sounds and detected an acrid smell. Though the engines had continued to run, the loss of the AC packs had obliged the captain to turn the airship back.

There we were, stopped on the tarmac at Heathrow with no gate assignment, waiting for a maintenance crew to assess the problem and ascertain how long it would take to fix it. I figured there was no way that two broken AC packs would be fixed anytime soon. The plane would have to go into a service hangar.

It seemed that all we could do was hope that American could scramble another 777—just as the airline had done on my outbound flight from Dallas when our first 777 had developed a maintenance issue after we pushed back.

To me, it it seemed like yesterday that the fabled “Triple 7” had entered service in 1995. Back then I was an aviation buff in my twenties and had marveled at the new machine with its stupendously strong airframe and huge new GE 90 turbofan engines—the biggest ever developed, producing up to 115,000 pounds of thrust. Now it seemed like an old horse—still willing to work, but often injured and in constant need of veterinarian care.

The captain came on the PA and explained that the plane could not be fixed with us onboard, so we would have to get off and go back to the terminal. Moreover, because he was reaching the end of his legally allowed daily work limit, he was signing off and wished us the best of luck.

It was, he elaborated, unclear how we were going to get to Dallas. One “hypothetical possibility,” he explained, was that American Airlines could get us on an American flight to JFK at some point that evening.

“From JFK, we will, out of courtesy, arrange flights on other airlines to your final destination,” he explained.

How courteous, I thought. After all, I could have foraged for a connecting flight from JFK to Dallas on some other airline. American Airlines was really going the extra mile to volunteer to get me from New York to Dallas.

At last the buses arrived and took us to the terminal, but our only instruction was to “follow the purple signs for transfer.” Transfer to what?

My AA flight alert text message was going off every two minutes with different announcements about our new flight time. The first said we’d be taking off in 30 minutes, the second said 4:00 p.m., the third said 2:00 am, then a fourth said 10:00 am, and then a fifth said we were flying to JFK at 7:00 a.m.

A group of us arrived at what appeared to be an AA transfer desk. One agent told us to line up, then another told us to follow her back in the direction from which we’d come, and then another directed us to go through UK pass control and collect our bags. This we did, but when we arrived at the baggage claim, there was nothing on the digital display about which carousel would dispense our bags.

Word spread among my fellow stranded passengers that AA had a special baggage claim desk at the end of the corridor. We herded towards the desk and were met with a formidably long line. Then I heard talk that our bags would arrive at Carousel 5. By then I’d resigned myself to spending the night in London and logged onto my laptop with my cell phone hotspot to look for a room.

Then I heard someone say that AA was handing out hotel vouchers. I approached the man and asked, “Vouchers for what hotel?”

“The IBIS at Heathrow,” he replied.

I thought about the prospect of checking into the Heathrow IBIS—even though we still had no idea when our flight was departing—and my heart sank. I imagined myself in a grim modernist room with a stained carpet feeling sorry for myself. No, as tired as I was, I was determined to make the best of my night in the British capital.

I booked a room at the Pelham in South Kensington—a charming little boutique inn in a Victorian townhouse.

“Any idea when the luggage is going to come out?” a female voice said. I looked up from my laptop and saw an attractive young blonde woman.

“No,” I replied. “No one knows when the luggage will appear, or if it will ever appear. Maybe it no longer exists.”

She laughed and gave me what I interpreted to be a flirtatious look.

“Are you also stuck in London for the night,” I asked, wondering if she was akin to the sorceress Circe, who persuades Odysseus to stick around on the island of Aeaea.

The post Things Fall Apart: A Transatlantic Odyssey appeared first on LewRockwell.

“Old age is hell,” my dear mother used to tell me far too often. Well, now I am old, and she was right. I can’t complain too much about myself; I’m more fortunate than most. But for much of the elderly in this crumbling country, existence is a nightmare. Someone once said a society is measured by how it treats its elderly. Let’s look at that.

A century ago, there were virtually no nursing homes. And there certainly weren’t retirement homes and retirement communities, which serve as kind of a de facto apartheid system for oldsters that aren’t attractive or healthy enough to be wanted in polite society any longer. Now, the establishment counter to this is that people didn’t live as long back then. You didn’t have this huge population of senior citizens. There are more people now, so there would naturally be more old people. But life expectancy has been falling in America for the last several years, despite all the propaganda to the contrary. The primary reason life expectancy started increasing during the twentieth century is because all those terrible childhood diseases- the array of deadly fevers and coughs- were eradicated. The sudden introduction of cancer somewhat cancelled that out. But you always had people living to ripe old ages.

So without nursing homes, without “elder care” or hospice, without those wildly expensive retirement communities, where did the surviving oldsters live back then? Watch reruns of the 1970s show The Waltons. That’s how it was for many families. Grandma and/or Grandpa stayed with one of their adult kids. Remember, until the 1930s there was no Social Security. Few women worked outside the home, and until the 1950s, most workers weren’t paid a pension that might help support their widows after their deaths. The family was the most important thing in most people’s lives back then. That’s hard to imagine now, in this decadent and narcissistic time. It was the most natural thing in the world to take your elderly parents into your home. To not only provide them with shelter, but to value them as the magnificent assets they represent. They are not only our blood heritage, but living links to a vanished past.

I don’t know that Americans ever quite valued elders the way other cultures have, and in fact still do. In all Asian cultures, the most elderly citizens are celebrated and revered. Multigenerational families are the norm. You’re not likely to find a Korean grandmother or a Japanese grandfather shuttled off to some dirty and impersonal American-style nursing home, where they will be lackadaisically “cared for,” at great financial cost. In many cases they will be abused, and rarely if ever visited by their children or grandchildren. You’ll find the same respect for the elderly in Middle Eastern cultures, and in Africa. Really, the only societies that no longer treat their elderly with proper respect are the western ones. The ones that are still majority White. White adult children have been receptive to the poisonous conditioning; your parents are stupid, and smelly, and sickly, and ask too many questions. They cramp your style. Put them away where we don’t have to see them. Put yourself first!

Japan has a Respect for the Aged Day. We have senior citizen discounts. The entire IHOP menu is half price for seniors every Wednesday. In the United States, about 28 percent of those aged 60 and above live alone, as opposed to an average of 16 percent in 130 countries surveyed in a recent poll. Looking at a Congressional Budget Office study from the 1980s, we find glaring changes just from 1960 to 1984. In 1960, less than 1/5 of the elderly lived alone, but by 1984 nearly 1/3 did. The percentage of elderly who lived with their adult children or other family members fell from 40 percent in 1960 to 22 percent by 1984. By the early 2000s, “age-friendly communities” were being pushed by none other than the World Health Organization. So you know they must be a good thing. By 2011, the racial differences were clear, even in America. 84 percent of elderly Whites lived alone or with their spouse, as opposed to 57 percent of Hispanics, 54 percent of Asians, and 46 percent of Blacks. White families rule!

They tell us that 52 percent of adults aged 65 or older today will need some type of long-term care in the future. About half of this “informal care giving” is still provided by adult children here. I guess that’s a bit of a pleasantly surprising number. But that still means that the other half of seniors who need long-term care have to get it somewhere else. In nursing homes and assisted living facilities. Sure, it has to be disheartening to have your adult child wipe your butt or feed you with a spoon, but it beats having some indifferent immigrant that barely speaks English do it. Being the often pessimistic guy I am, I read this statistic another way; half the adult children in America aren’t willing to help out their old and ailing parents. The glass is half empty. I have known people who sacrificed everything to care for their elderly parents. Almost always, if they have siblings, it isn’t a shared experience. The burden seems to fall completely on the child whose conscience first compels them to do it.

To me, there is no more noble task in life than caring for the man or woman who was responsible for you being born. The one who once wiped your butt, and fed you baby food. In most cases, this means that the adult child, whose siblings won’t help them, must basically put their own life on hold. Their own goals and aspirations must be subjugated to doing what must seem like a thankless task, because the elderly very often won’t be able to thank you themselves. But it truly is God’s work. Your other option is to have them pay $6,000 or more every month for the privilege of being housed in a facility where they will more than likely be neglected and mistreated. Where that 50 percent of children who wouldn’t lend a hand in assistance will seldom if ever remember them. I’ve seen too many loved ones in these places, and witnessed the lonely souls waiting for visits from supposed loved ones which never come.

I will always have a warm place in my heart for Natalie Merchant, the former lead singer of the group 10,000 Maniacs. She co-wrote the song Trouble Me in dedication to her father. It is a plea for an older loved one to ask for help. It goes against the modern narrative that old parents are a nuisance. Watch any television show or film produced in the last fifty years, and this message comes through loud and clear. The worst thing in the world, according to this insidious propaganda, is a visit from your aging mother and father. The Waltons was an exception to this mainstream indoctrination, and Clint Eastwood’s film Gran Torino did a nice job of depicting the emptiness and lack of love that exists in too many modern American families. This selfishness and lack of respect and empathy for the elderly is part of the overall anti-family agenda. It’s not much of a stretch from estrangement between parents and children to “gender reassignment” surgery and changing pronouns.

I’ve been in a few of these human cattle places recently. Chock full of 100 percent USDA not so finely aged human beings. It was heartbreaking to learn that the roommate of one of my loved ones had no visitors the entire month they roomed together, outside of her husband. Both in their 80s, and losing functions daily. She described how they realized too late that they should have had children. Is it better to have children who don’t care enough to visit you, or never have children at all, to paraphrase Tennyson. Nursing homes were rare in Asian countries until recently, but now the disastrous influence of our secular western culture is making inroads there, too. Soon there may not be any revered elders anywhere in the world. They’ll all just be ridiculed, ignored, and then taken away to parts unknown, like a waste removal service. The way we treat our elderly ought to bother everyone who isn’t elderly. Yet.

The post The Unlucky Elderly of America 2.0 appeared first on LewRockwell.

In the past few days I have listen to John Helmer say on Nima’s show that President Trump’s latest irresponsible outburst signals Putin that Russia is facing war.  Scott Ritter also on Nima’s show said the same.  I share the concern.

My position since the “Maidan Revolution” in Kiev in 2014, that is, since Washington’s overthrow of the democratically elected Ukrainian government and installed  a Russiaphobic puppet, has been that Putin’s unwillingness to deal decisively with the situation, first by permitting the overthrow, second by refusing the Donbas Russians’ 2014 request to be reincorporated into Russia like Crimea, and third by foolishly trusting to the Minsk Agreement and giving Washington and NATO eight years to build a Ukrainian army, guaranteed a conflict that would widen into a catastrophic event.

Hemer and Ritter say that is what we now face with Trump’s latest recklessness being the icing on the cake that Putin’s toleration of endless provocations has baked.

Here is the URL to the 32 minute interview Nima has with Ritter:

Scott Ridder is worth listening to.  Ridder was the chief arms inspector sent to Iraq to confirm that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction justifying Washington’s invasion.  But Ritter was too honest for the job and reported back that there were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.  

The Zionist George W. Bush Regime simply ignored the report, sent US Secretary of State Colin Powell to the UN to lie through his teeth, and invaded and destroyed an Arab country for Israel.  George W., the son of a former US president and CIA Director, sent American soldiers to die for Israel and asserted he was fighting a “war on terror.”  He was fighting with American lives and money a war for Greater Israel.

Fighting wars for Israel has been US policy for the entirety of the 21st century. American parents, brothers, sisters, daughters, sons, uncles, cousins, and friends have been fighting and dying for Israel and paying for their own deaths by financing the war with their own pocket books for three presidencies during which Washington has sacrificed Americans for Israel.

All of this has to be kept hidden from Americans and is by lies, censorship, charges of anti-semitism, and criminalization of  criticism of Israel.  If truth be known, Israel rules the West.  There are only two members in the US house of Representatives with the courage to stand up to Israel.  In the US Senate I think there is only one.  The bully Trump is afraid of the Israel Lobby and illegally bombed Iran–an act of war–on orders from Netanyahu.  Trump is building Greater Israel, not America. When MAGA-Americans elected Trump, they elected Netanyahu. 

To move on to the wider point.  Everywhere we look no government can face reality, not the Trump and predecessor regimes, not Putin and Lavrov, not the UK, France, Germany, China, Iran.  Not even those threatened can face the reality.  

I am currently rereading A.J.P. Taylor’s The Origins of the Second World War. World War II happened because everyone refused to recognize reality, except Hitler who recognized it about half the time.  The rest created the conditions for war that Hitler did not need or want.  Hitler did not conquer Austria.  The dumbshit Austrian government handed the country to him.  Hitler did not invade Czechoslovakia, the dumbshit Czech President Benes handed it to him.  The British and French, like Putin today, wanted peace and thus created the conditions for war.  The British government’s intense determination to avoid war caused it.  The foolish British government issued a military guarantee to the Polish military dictatorship just as it was about to sign an agreement for Germany to reincorporate German territory assigned to Poland by the Treaty of Versailles.  Consequently, the Poles walked away from settling the issue of Germans ruled by Poland.  The result was the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact  portioning Poland between Germany and the Soviet Union.  

It was the British and French, neither capable of fighting, who recklessly declared war on Germany.  France was instantly conquered, and the British escaped at Dunkirk with Hitler’s permission.  Hitler misread Churchill.  Hitler thought that if he let the defeated British army escape, it wouldn’t wound the British pride, and they would accept his extraordinarily peace terms that committed Germany to the defense of the British Empire.  

In his day A.J.P. Taylor was hated because he told the truth, whereas the court historians insured their success by regurgitating war propaganda.  Most historians you read are court historians insuring their own success.

Tell the truth and the universities dismiss you from your position, as happened to A.J.P. Taylor. 

The inability or unwillingness to recognize reality today is worst than in the late 1930s.  Today every country’s  myths blind it to reality and compel it toward war.  When leaders, if that is what they are, are incapable of acknowledging reality, only luck can save us.

The post John Mearsheimer: The Palestinian Genocide and How the West Has Been Deceived Into Supporting It appeared first on LewRockwell.

On July 28, one Shane Tamura double parked in front of a Manhattan high-rise, sauntered in carrying a weapon appearing to be modeled on the AR platform, and killed four people before taking his own life. The first to be taken out was an off-duty police officer working a security side job; second was a female Blackstone executive who had the misfortune of being down in the lobby instead of up in her office; and the third was an unarmed security guard. The killer then took the elevator up to the 33rd floor where he killed a woman who worked on that floor before turning the gun on himself.

Because the killer had a note on his person requesting that his brain be examined for evidence of CTE, it was thought that NFL offices on the 5th floor might have been his intended target; CTE is most associated with football injuries, and Tamura had played high school ball. But conspiracy theorists posited that his real intended target was the Blackstone offices on the 44th floor, Tamura unknowingly exiting the elevator on the wrong floor.

Although close-up photos of the killer’s weapon appeared in the media, reporters as usual fumbled the ball in their attempts to describe it. Some described it as an “AR-15 assault rifle,” some as an “M4 rifle.” Others were more tentative, describing it as an “AR-15-style rifle” or an “M4 assault-style rifle.” According to Kathy Hochul, it was an “AR-15-style assault rifle,” a “weapon of war.”

An assault rifle is a relatively compact military weapon capable of fully automatic fire that takes a cartridge smaller than that used in a typical battle rifle; the less powerful cartridge makes it easier to control the weapon during fully automatic operation. The original AR-15 fell into this category, later becoming the M16 and its variants; the current military incarnation of this weapon platform is the M4 carbine. Civilian versions of these weapon are semiautomatic only; in the case of the M4, however, the civilian version also had to have its barrel lengthened from 14.5 in. to a civilian-legal 16 in. Referring to any of these semiautomatic civilian versions as an “assault rifle” is a definite misnomer.

The killer’s weapon has a barrel that appears to be shorter than 16 in., probably accounting for its mistakenly being specifically identified as an M4. In reality, the damned thing is what is known as an “AR pistol.” What looks like a shoulder stock is actually a “stabilizing brace” that can be opened like a clam shell to fit around the sides of the shooter’s forearm, cinched tight with a strap that goes all the way around the forearm. (Check out pictures of the killer’s weapon and then do a Google image search for “stabilizing brace,” and you’ll see exactly what I’m talking about.) Because the weapon is technically a pistol, its barrel can legally be shorter than 16 in. So Hochul’s “weapon of war” actually turns out to be a semiautomatic pistol designed to be strapped to the forearm of someone with impaired motor skills.

The post Hochul’s Bugaboo appeared first on LewRockwell.

Over the last year, I’ve worked to bring the public’s attention to dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) a forgotten natural therapy which rapidly treats a wide range of conditions and that many studies have shown is very safe (provided it’s used correctly), and, most importantly (thanks to the 1994 DSHEA act which legalized all natural therapies) is now readily available.

Since I believe DMSO has immense potential to offer the medical community and individual patients, I’ve diligently worked to compile evidence that best supports its rediscovery. As such, throughout this series, I’ve presented over a thousand studies that DMSO effectively treats:

Strokes, paralysis, a wide range of neurological disorders (e.g., Down Syndrome and dementia), and many circulatory disorders (e.g., Raynaud’s, varicose veins, hemorrhoids), which I discussed here.

A wide range of tissue injuries, such as sprains, concussions, burns, surgical incisions, and spinal cord injuries (discussed here).

Chronic pain (e.g., from a bad disc, bursitis, arthritis, or complex regional pain syndrome), which I discussed here.

A wide range of autoimmune, protein, and contractile disorders, such as scleroderma, amyloidosis, and interstitial cystitis (discussed here).

A variety of head conditions, such as tinnitus, vision loss, dental problems, and sinusitis (discussed here).

A wide range of internal organ diseases, such as pancreatitis, infertility, liver cirrhosis, and endometriosis (discussed here).

A wide range of skin conditions, such as burns, varicose veins, acne, hair loss, ulcers, skin cancer, and many autoimmune dermatologic diseases (discussed here).

Many challenging infectious conditions, including chronic bacterial infections, herpes, and shingles (discussed here).

Many aspects of cancer (e.g., many of cancer’s debilitating symptoms, making cancer treatments more potent, greatly reducing the toxicity of conventional therapies, and turning cancer cells back into normal cells), which I discussed here.

Many lung disorders, including asthma, COPD, pulmonary fibrosis, and cystic fibrosis (discussed here).

Sadly, most of us have never heard about it because the FDA spent decades fighting an unconscionable battle to outlaw and erase DMSO from history.

DMSO Combination Therapies

DMSO’s ability to treat a wide range of illnesses results from its having a variety of highly unusual properties that appear to address the root causes of disease. At the same time however, since DMSO has so many different therapeutic mechanisms (e.g., increasing parasympathetic activity, increasing circulation, regenerating senescent cells, being highly anti-inflammatory, blocking pain conduction etc.), despite having now reviewed thousands of studies on it, there is still a great deal I do not understand about the substance.

This is particularly true for one of DMSO’s most noteworthy properties, its ability to enhance the effects of other substances, which in many cases makes it possible to surmount major dilemmas traditionally seen with those therapies. This is particularly important, as while DMSO helps the majority of recipients (e.g., around 85-90% of readers reported relief from chronic pain), in many instances where DMSO alone will not suffice to address an ailment (e.g., pain), a combination therapy will.

Note: in some cases, the lack of efficacy comes from an incorrect method of administration of DMSO (as some applications are more potent for certain types of issues) or using poor quality DMSO.

DMSO’s unique ability to function as a vehicle is due to the fact that it can pass through biological membranes without damaging them, so once it contacts the skin, it rapidly spreads throughout the body, while simultaneously it readily dissolves most substances and is able to bring them with it into the body.
Note: DMSO also significantly increases fluid circulation throughout the body (including in and out of cells), further enhancing its ability to spread what it carries throughout the body.

This is very useful as:

• Be able to apply a medication topically or orally that would typically require an IV or injection.

• Making drugs become much more potent and able to treat conditions that the illnesses otherwise will not respond to (e.g., these mixtures can penetrate and treat antibiotic resistant bacteria or chemotherapy resistant cancers).

• Allowing lower doses of a drug to be used, which are often much less toxic (as you no longer need to flood the body with it to ensure a high enough concentration is reached in the target area—especially if that area has chronically poor blood flow).

• In many cases, counteract the toxicity of the blended medication (as DMSO protects tissue from injury).

• In some cases, there is a potent synergy between two substances that creates a medical breakthrough (e.g., when DMSO is combined with the pathology dye hematoxylin, it becomes a highly potent cancer therapy which does not affect normal cells).

Note: while DMSO cannot be patented, combinations can. As such, while DMSO alone is “unsafe” “ineffective” and “unproven” many “safe and effective” DMSO pharmaceutical combinations exist, including many approved by the FDA.

In turn, virtually all the previous applies to natural therapies as well, and in many cases DMSO is able to solve major challenges with the treatment or dramatically increase its potency and efficacy. Unfortunately, in many cases, it’s hard to say how much of the benefit comes from DMSO vs. what’s added to it, as many of the benefits I see from combination therapies are similar to what DMSO alone could do. Likewise, at this point, we’ve only barely touched the surface of what can be combined with DMSO, and I am relatively certain many more combinations like DMSO and hematoxylin are waiting to be discovered, which have paradigm shifting therapeutic synergies.

Given all of this, there are a few critical points to understand about natural DMSO combination therapies:

• In many cases where DMSO alone does not work for a condition (which DMSO is known to improve), a combination therapy will. For example, yesterday I learned someone I had been suffering from a severe migraine where DMSO didn’t work for her (which for others, it often does), so shortly before going to the ER, she decided to mix DMSO with two botanicals, responded immediately, and within an hour, her three-day migraine was over (which was life-changing for her).

• Many have found that combining DMSO with their favorite natural therapies has allowed them to take medical care into their own hands and “be their own doctor.”

• While DMSO combination therapies are generally safe, there are a variety of risks and safety considerations that need to be taken into consideration, particularly once one begins experimenting with them. It is for this reason that in the previous article, I listed a variety of critical rules to understand when creating your own combination therapies. As such, if you decide to explore creating therapeutic DMSO combinations, you need to read the previous article first (available here).

• While DMSO has a variety of positive pharmaceutical synergies, it appears to work best when combined with natural therapies. Additionally, as natural substances tend to be less toxic than pharmaceuticals, you are much less likely to run into a complication from potentiating a medication (but nonetheless, you should still read the previous article). That said, it is still essential to make sure you use high-quality products to avoid the risk of low-quality ones, which have toxic additives or contaminants in them, and likewise to avoid substances that are known to be toxic or (once filtered and sterile) never appropriate to infuse.

• Much like conventional therapies, many DMSO combinations remain undiscovered, and simultaneously, some of the combinations I’ve seen promoted are likely unnecessary (as DMSO alone would have the same effect).

Additionally, in many cases, natural alternatives to cosmetics can be made by combining pure fats, oils, or herbal extracts with DMSO, which is often quite advantageous, as beyond being quite effective, they avoid the toxicity, reactions, and dehydration of the skin or mucus membranes commonly seen with standard cosmetics.

Natural Combination Studies

Since DMSO has so much value as a pharmaceutical vehicle, a large volume of scientific literature exists on DMSO being used in combination with pharmaceutical drugs, and many different approved formulations exist (highlighting the absurdity of our medical bureaucracy, as alone, DMSO is “dangerous and unproven” but when combined with other patentable agents “safe and effective”).

As such, I covered that body of literature in the previous article, both to show, contrary to popular belief, that DMSO is widely used in medicine (provided money can be made), and so readers considering combination therapies could gain critical insights into how DMSO combinations interact with the body.

Beyond pharmaceuticals, many approved DMSO products also incorporate natural agents such as dexpanthenol (a form of B5 used for wound healing), menthol, camphor, lavandin, lavender oil, coriander oil, arnica, potassium iodide, or capsicum. In turn, a significant number of studies exist throughout the literature on using natural DMSO combination therapies, which I will now cover (excluding ones where heparin was used, as they are covered in the previous article, which details the majority of the DMSO combination studies).

Note: unless otherwise specified, all DMSO treatments were done topically (frequently with a DMSO containing ointment).

Chinese Herbs

A significant amount of DMSO research has been done in China, which has naturally led to studying it in combination with traditional Chinese Herbs, where together, they have been found to help a wide range of conditions:

• In rats with Alzheimer’s disease, DMSO and Ginkgo biloba extract (GBE), administered for 14 days, improved learning and memory by reducing escape latency and searching distance in a water maze test.

• In 33 patients with severe psoriasis (25 with psoriasis vulgaris 7 with psoriasis guttate 1 with psoriasis pustulosa) found that an extract of camptotheca nuts dissolved in 70% DMSO was a “quick, effective and convenient treatment,” as a year later, 21 had a complete resolution of the disease, while the remaining 12 had greatly improved (but a few eruptions still could be found along with discolored patches of skin, especially on the lower legs where lesions had previously been reported).

• In 31 patients with postherpetic neuralgia, DMSO and a Chinese herbal medicine reduced pain scores and improved symptoms more effectively than standard medical therapy.

• A hospital dermatology department reported that DMSO and 0.05% lithospermum (purple gromwell) effectively treated viral warts.

• In mice with cervical carcinoma, treatment with 50 mg/kg DMSO combined with 20 mg/kg Zhenhuang injection extended survival by 65.81%–69.83% in ascitic tumors and inhibited solid tumor growth by 60.83%–68.33%, significantly outperforming DMSO alone (21.37%–25.86% survival, 22.50%–25.83% inhibition) or Zhenhuang alone (41.38%–43.59% survival, 37.50%–41.67% inhibition).

• A 15% DMSO, 1% mefenamic acid, and 10% knotweed herb extract ointment, demonstrated significant anti-inflammatory effects in rats by reducing experimentally induced paw edema and having a more prolonged effect over 24 hours than standard care.

• Many studies have shown DMSO enhances the absorption of plant extracts (e.g., for ginseng1,2). In this report, DMSO was found to increase the penetration of traditional ointment (distilled from honeysuckle, dandelion, forsythia, Chinese violet, and salvia miltiorrhiza).

Note: some Chinese formulations combine steroids, DMSO, and borneol (a traditional medicine found in herbs like camphor, rosemary, thyme, ginger, and cannabis).

Lew,

What has happened to The Kate Dalley Show? Kate absolutely loves you, the Mises Institute, Ron Paul, Mises President Tom DiLorenzo and Tom Woods, and all of you have been guests on her podcast. 

Kate’s last show was July 3rd and I miss it. For the last few months, her analysis of the spiritual battle embroiling us, world events, the threat of global government and the emerging technocracy, and Trump the Trojan Horse were becoming so astute I looked forward to each and every one of her podcasts. 

On July 3rd in a three minute “Where’s My Show?” segment, she announced to her audience her show was ending, hinted at the reasons why, while promising she was trying to figure out how to return to the airwaves. Link:

https://www.katedalleyshow.com/podcast/

The resonance, clarity and acoustic patterns of her voice made her very listenable. She has the rare gift to deliver serious and at times dire information without losing her sense of humor. Her courage, strong Christian faith and delight in being a wife, mother and grandmother make her someone I greatly admire.

While Kate has no updates on the return of her show, she is still posting on X and Instagram. Her X posts are promoting a 13-page report she did based on 35,000 hours of research on holistic ways to fight cancer, and I find it very useful. Link:

Paul Singer Cabela’s

• Paul Singer: Billionaire founder of Elliott Management, an activist hedge fund that acquired an 11% stake in Cabela’s in 2015 and pressured the company to explore a sale, stating it should be sold through a public auction process and indicating it was prepared to take further steps if the company did not engage in a sales process.

Following the announcement of Cabela’s sale to Bass Pro Shops in 2016, Elliott Management sold its shares, reportedly making at least $90 million. The sale followed pressure from Elliott Management, which began after it disclosed its stake in 2015. The transaction provided Cabela’s shareholders with a 19.2% premium over the closing price on September 30, 2016, and a 40% premium over the December 1, 2015 closing price. Prior to the sale, Cabela’s was profitable, generating over $1 billion annually.

Cabela’s: Nebraska-based outdoor equipment retailer headquartered in Sidney, which was acquired by Bass Pro Shops in a $5.5 billion cash deal finalized in 2017.

Writes Brian Dunaway:

There are many elements that converged which led to the astonishing Jaguar marketing decisions, resulting in what can only be described as annihilation. (That is, a 97% drop in sales.) Among the sane, this spectacle leaves the observer’s mouth agape for minutes at a time. You want to look away but you can’t. But as astonishing a disaster as this is, “wokeism” is just one element of it – the root cause being Western corporate incompetence in general, often driven by cowardice.

I spent my entire career employed (sorry, I was a “team member”) by a very, very large legacy aerospace company. In an observation so true it has become trite, with few exceptions, legacy companies are saturated with management whose members are galactically ordinary and spectacularly stupid, but above all, weak. This lack of leadership leads not just to inane decisions, but even criminal ones. (The legacy corporate environment also promotes sociopaths, which appear to provide the mitochondrial energy required for mindless activity, often misinterpreted as efficiency.)

During a temporary assignment to a new program, I befriended a pair of engineers whom I learned were more or less worldview fellow-travelers. (Incidentally, I quickly discovered they both read lewrockwell.com.) After having known me only a week, I think they already had my number: A radical (the way K-L described it), but having an extreme sense of propriety. At this time, they told me a little recent history of the group. I could just feel their anticipation of my response.

The story: In their engineering group, there existed two females in a “romantic” relationship. One of them, the designated butch. The other one – who was quite attractive, and apparently had not read the official operating manual for lesbianism – was attracting the attention of a male in an adjacent group. Catching wind of this, the butch informed the potential male suitor, via company instant messaging, that if he didn’t knock it off (pun intended), she would “cut his balls off.”

Management discovered this, and panicked. Because that’s the defining ontological feature of legacy corporate management. Not for least because they were dealing with two “team members” who had double legal and social protection. Fortunately for management, all members of this love triangle were Caucasian, so no protection trifecta.

All methodologies of cowardice were followed flawlessly, including Rule No. 1, which is: No Confrontation.

So, what happened? Ask anyone who has worked in these environments the answer – I have many times. I tell them the story, and I always receive the same answer. They always get it right. Always.

That’s right. The butch was promoted.

How can the punchline be the answer that exists in reality, with near-perfect consistency?

It is deep sickness.

Canada Plans to Euthanize 15 Million People in the Next 20 Years

LOTS ABOUT HOSPITAL POLICIES IN THE U.S.

“While doctor-assisted suicide in the U.S. has not yet reached the alarming extremes observed in Canada, the “death with dignity” movement is actively attempting to change that. Pending Governor Hochul’s signature on New York’s recently passed bill, 11 states and Washington, D.C., will permit this abhorrent and immoral practice.” 

“What often goes unnoticed, however, is that existing U.S. healthcare policies are already enabling the quiet killing of vulnerable Americans – not through legalized suicide, but through hospital protocols and policies that deny care, withdraw treatment, or subtly hasten death.”
