A drone attack on Saudi Arabia has destroyed 50% of their oil-production capacity. The consensus is that Iran was involved. President Trump has stated that America is “locked and loaded” and ready to respond. This would be a mistake. Thanks to the President’s policies, we are now energy independent. We do not need the Middle East’s oil and there is no reason to become involved in a conflict we cannot win. Iran and Saudi Arabia are fighting a proxy war in neighboring Yemen. The history of this region is more complex than a Rubik’s Cube, but basically, it has consisted of nomadic tribes that have been at each other’s throats for millennia. England colonized southern Yemen after World War I, calling its port city Aden. As the British Empire unraveled after World War II, Yemen gradually united, becoming a country in 1990. Unfortunately, it remained one of the planet’s most impoverished areas and self-government has been problematic. In 2015, a group called the Houthi, with … [Read more...]
An Update on Justice Ginsburg’s Health
Regular readers may recall that seven months ago, I wrote an article entitled “Justice Ginsburg is Probably Quite Ill.” To recap briefly, Justice Ginsburg had two malignant tumors removed from her lungs and her physicians stated she was cancer free.

Epstein Probably Committed Suicide
The supposed suicide of Jeffery Epstein has fanned the speculation of a cover-up across the entire ideological spectrum. Epstein, an uber wealthy financial expert, had hired nubile young women for sexual favors and proceeded to invite the wealthy and powerful to indulge in his bacchanalias. Many powerful men consider the sexual favors of young women to be a divine right and expect society to look the other way when caught. But the political winds have changed and these men were about to be exposed, humiliated and even bankrupted. What follows is my attempt to look at published reports objectively and give my medical opinion. Having done so, I have concluded Epstein’s death was a suicide by hanging. Before looking at the specifics of Epstein’s case, let’s examine why those who are hanged die. There are basically three causes: a broken neck that abruptly stops breathing, strangulation, and lack of oxygen to the brain. Hanging was used in the past as a form of execution.
