August 16, 2024 | Will Merchan Order Imprisonment of Trump on September 18th?

  This is the most bizarre election in American History, and given our computer wars, it will very likely be the last. This “acting” judge, Juan M. Merchan, is a prosecutor. How does an “acting” judge get the most important case in American political history? Prosecutor Bragg ran for election promising to take down Donald […]

August 15, 2024 | Kennedy Removed from New York Ballot

  Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has been shunned from the 2024 US Presidential race since he first announced his decision to run.

Obviously, Kennedy meets the requirement of […]

August 14, 2024 | Is Britain a Major Short? Is the EU Waging war on Free Speech?

  Britain has lost its historical roots and, thus, its mind.  Britain has embraced the very idea of George Orwell’s 1984 as a good idea. They now engage in a desperate attempt to imprison anyone who dares to criticize the government because they know they are losing power. Instead of looking objectively at what they […]

August 13, 2024 | When the Democrats Say They Are Defending Democracy They Mean the Opposite

  All we heard was they were defending Democracy by trying to keep Trump off the ballot and RFK, and they orchestrated a host of criminal actions against Trump, all by hand-picked Democratic prosecutors. Then I reported from the very beginning that Biden would step down after the Republican Convention and the scheme was to DENY the […]

I can’t let this month pass without noting a significant anniversary: This is the 25th year I’ve been writing Thoughts from the Frontline.

You can visit the archive and see every issue since January 2001 (including, trust […]

August 11, 2024 | Is this Election Going to All Fake Photos?

Is anything real anymore? This photo appears to be Photoshopped, for when you look at the reflection on the underbelly of the plane and on the engine, you do not see the crowd. Normally, Harris and her leftist attendant would pause and waive to people if they were really there. The polls will be rigged […]

August 9, 2024 | Why Republics Will Fall

Republics are the worst form of government, for every representative can be bribed. Those who are honest get very frustrated, for they will pass rules to prevent anyone from actually even making a motion on the floor. Motions will have to come from Committees. If you do not play nicely, the speaker decides who gets […]

August 9, 2024 | The Stock Market Correction is a Warning Sign

U.S. stock markets crashed from Friday last week through Monday this week. High flying tech stocks cratered as well as the broad indexes like the S&P 500 and Japan’s Nikkei.
