  • Sandbox – 11jul20

    [Given this week’s SCOTUS ruling on Indian lands in Oklahoma (here and here), the future of all 19th century abrogated treaties with our indigenous Americans will come up for review.  All this will create chaos in the governmental jurisdictions involved, not the least being the status of non-Indians and their property rights.  gjr]

  • This Young Collectivist’s Column is NOT a Caricature

    George Rebane Recent NUHS graduate Michael Sekerak is working hard to reshape our society and community.  He wrote the cri de Coeur ‘Time to elevate those marginalized in our community’ which The Union published in its 8jul20 edition.  What is remarkable about Mr Sekerak’s column is that it so exemplifies the education, indoctrination, and mentality…

  • Letters from the Revolution – 8jul20 (updated 9jul20)

    George Rebane Reports of the number of cumulative C19 cases in any given jurisdiction misses the point.  Nobody should care about cumulative cases, only the number of active cases, and maybe the number who have died.  It’s the active cases that communicate some measure of risk for those who are out and about.  The ones…

  • The Looming post-Covid Civil Liberties Battle

    George Rebane As most on the Right and Left understand, the country’s command and control collectivists see the Covid-19 pandemic as a godsend.  Given the educational state of our electorate, there are enough cognitively deficient voters out there to swallow unhesitatingly the socialist propaganda which today blankets their waking hours.  The viral scourge could not…

  • Scattershots – 5jul20 (updated 6jul20)

    George Rebane Division is caused by Trump’s speeches is now the steady narrative from the national propaganda outlets.  Specifically, it’s the speeches in which he mentions the protests cum riots that result in death and destruction that have now emerged as the daily visible signs that divide our country.  Were they not of evil intent,…

  • Happy Fourth, if you can (redux and up a notch)

    George Rebane On this year’s Fourth our beloved land is in more disarray than in my living memory, and that’s a fer piece in anyone’s book.  Half the country does not know where we have been, what we have done, nor shares a common vision of our future.  These dark clouds were already gathering a…

  • Sandbox – 3jul20

    [Alex Berenson on the real skinny behind Covid-19 reporting.  Short book and very much worth a read if you’re interested in debating the pandemic, how it’s reported, and various response policies (here).  Apologies for letting the last sandbox languish a bit too long; we're working through a family medical emergency here.  gjr]

  • Western academe’s sunset years

    George Rebane [This is the addended transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 1 July 2020.] The current insanity sweeping the western world that started with the George Floyd killing is now way past that outrage and moved on to much bigger objectives.  The event served as a trigger to launch the ready and…
