From 879-709 BC, Nimrud was the capital of the Assyrians, one the ancient world’s earliest empires. In modern excavations , the site yielded a wealth of Mesopotamian art.

Facebook to Censor to get back into China

Facebook to Censor to get back into China

Why does the NewYork Times now think that censorship is worthwhile to report? I recommend everyone take the time and listen to the video. The article is a rare piece of good information from the Times. The social network has quietly developed software to suppress posts from appearing in people’s news feeds in specific geographic areas, according to three current and former Facebook employees…Facebook blocked roughly 55,000 pieces of content in about 20 countries between July 2015 and December 2015…The…

Hillary Clinton wins national popular vote – Who Care?

Hillary Clinton wins national popular vote – Who Care?

I just do not understand this waste of brain power debating something so clear and obvious as the electoral college.  After the Podesta WikiLeaks emails showing proof of main stream media bias and purposeful propaganda for their favorite politician, the press just goes back into the normal, “you rural hicks outside the elite big cities do not know what you are doing”. There is no one who wants to understand why Hillary lost and why Donald won. Even if they…

Gary Johnson helped President Trump in the end?

Gary Johnson helped President Trump in the end?

In the aftermath of an amazing and more so interesting election outcome, socialists are actually blaming Gary Johnson. In The Hill: Libertarian Gary Johnson took more than 3.5 percent support in Wisconsin and Michigan, enough to make up the difference between Trump and Clinton. He took 2.5 percent support in Pennsylvania, which was decided by about 1 point. No one can deny that Hillary could have used those extra votes. But this was an anti-establishment election. Look past Trump to Bernie Sanders….

Google: A Teachable Moment

Google: A Teachable Moment

Just like Facebook, do not think Google is a friend to free speech or Liberty. Google is a data mining company which all of us use and are used by.  Even though our emails may flow smoothly, manipulation of the data is very easy. Here is a nice short reviewed of how Google can manipulate a Clinton search. Here is an article about the latest WikiLeaks purge and gives some insight of the discussions about using data to manipulate an election….

Socialists can’t have the internet available to the masses

Socialists can’t have the internet available to the masses

Ted Cruz is quoted as saying, “In 22 short days, if Congress fails to act, the Obama administration intends to give away control of the internet to an international body akin to the United Nations.” Does Obama really want to give away the internet to an organization which could become a bureaucratic mess? Politifact could not let this statement from Ted Cruz stand. Michael Froomkin, a University of Miami law professor expert on ICANN, said by phone the U.S. government…

Call it what it is … a Globalist Trade Agreement.

Call it what it is … a Globalist Trade Agreement.

The Deadly Wages of Free Trade Daniel Kovalik, writing for Counterpunch.org,  who teaches International Human Rights at the University of Pittsburgh School of Law,  falls into the “free trade” trap without getting to the body of the article.  If one can’t follow a simple definition in the name of the article then the discussion of the article becomes false. I give Mr. Kovalik a gold star for having a bibliography supporting his article but his economics and liberty needs to…

Elon Musk hits back at coal baron who called him a ‘fraud’ over green subsidies With the evidence of  WikiLeaks showing a plethora of media bias and behind the scenes manipulation of information to the public, this article shows a great teachable moment. How does liberty combat media sites purposeful propaganda. Facts are given but are not. Today is an example.  I have to admit,  I have not spoken to but know Robert Murray and he is a family friend. I live…

Globalism: A Teachable Moment

Globalism: A Teachable Moment

Existential threat to world order confronts elite at IMF meeting    Policy-making elites converge on Washington this week for meetings that epitomize a faith in globalization that’s at odds with the growing backlash against the inequities it creates. Statements within this article from Bloomberg highlight the thought process of globalists and give hints to the socialism within the ranks. Louis Kuijs, head of Asia economics at Oxford Economics in Hong Kong and a former IMF official: “If we lose consensus on…
