Maintaining Delusional Confidence: The Leadership Dilemma

Maintaining Delusional Confidence: The Leadership DilemmaCharles Hugh Smith – Whatever else we might say or think about the leadership class, they tend to have a keen sense of self-preservation.

Global Push for Communism: A Totalitarian Agenda

Global Push for Communism: A Totalitarian AgendaJ.B. Shurk – It is important to understand that censorship does not occur in a vacuum. It is a symptom of a worsening disease.
