A procedural ruling from the Irish Supreme Court this Friday could limit Facebook on its information sharing ability between the United States and Europe. Here’s what you need to know: In July, the European Court of Justice issued a ruling on data transfers. It was based on the understanding that Europeans have no real way to challenge government surveillance in the US. In August, Ireland’s Data Protection Commission (DPC) enforced the ruling in the form of a preliminary decision. The DPC has authority in this case because Facebook’s European HQ…

There was a time when the Democratic party could be counted on for its support of Israel, today not so much. As tensions in Gaza continue to escalate, House Democrats rejected a recent Republican push to consider legislation that would apply sanctions on Hamas militants. Democrats blocked a bid to bring the Palestinian International Terrorism Support Prevention Act up for consideration in a 217-209 vote along party lines. The bill, introduced by Rep. Brian Mast, R-Fla., would have imposed sanctions on foreign entities known to have provided financial assistance to…

For several weeks, the once Anonymous Miles Taylor made the rounds of the left-wing media hyping what he called a “common sense coalition” composed of prominent Republicans who believe that the official Republican Party has fallen under the influence of former President Trump. Taylor’s big announcement was the assembling of a group of anti-Trumpers to endorse a letter entitled, “A Call For American Renewal.”  Taylor left open the primary purpose of the “common sense” coalition.  Was it to reform the Republican Party … defeat the Republican Party by forming a…

In recent weeks, there have been creeping stories about the possibility of inflation hitting the American economy.  Most of the fears were poo-pooed by the big spending Democrats in Washington and dismissed by most of the mainstream media.  “No need to worry,” they say.   If you are worried that we might be entering an inflationary period, fuggedaboudit.  We are not about to ENTER an inflationary period  because WE ARE ALREADY IN IT. That’s right. Consumer prices are rising.  The Consumer Price Index increased by 0.8 percent in April.  That may…

Documents obtained by the US State Department suggest researchers in China discussed the possibility of weaponizing coronaviruses early as 2015. In an article titled The Unnatural Origin of SARS and New Species of Man-Made Viruses as Genetic Bioweapons, military scientists describe SARS coronaviruses as pre SARS viruses could be “artificially manipulated into an emerging human disease virus, then weaponized and unleashed in a way never seen before,” they theorized, thus causing widespread “terror” and the full collapse of the “enemy’s medical system.” In addition, bioweapons “can be concealed [in deployment]…

One of the arguments that has been leveled at our military operations (undeclared wars) in various nations is that the aftermath requires “nation-building” – and that America is not good at nation-building.  In truth, the United States is great at nation-building. But first, we need to understand what the term means — or should mean. The common understanding of nation-building is for the United States to be the primary force in transforming nations to a more positive role in the world community – with emphasis on the expansion of democratic…

US Navy officials this weekend seized a massive cache of weapons part of an Iranian arms shipment. It was hidden aboard a stateless vessel in the North Arabian Sea. Sailors from the USS Monterey discovered the cache during a routine flag verification. “The US Navy conducts routine patrols in the region to ensure the free flow of commerce for legitimate traffic, disrupt the transport of illicit cargo that often funds terrorism and unlawful activity, and safeguard the rules-based international order,” said the Fifth Fleet in a statement. Officials believe the…

In the years since Andrew Breitbart declared “politics is downstream from culture,” something unexpected occurred to a large swath of America’s population: they have been banished from culture. Positive opinions on government health care, increased immigration, increased NATO involvement, public schooling, implicit racism, and increased welfare spending – once debated in arenas of public thought – now find themselves in the sanctified air religious tenets enjoy in friendly ethnostates. They are the bedrock in which all dialogue within the social sciences rests, the ideals of the bloviating elite our youth…
