  • The Iran Propaganda War

    George Rebane The Democrats are winning the Iran propaganda war hands down in the lamestream media and in the polls.  Their daily anti-American, anti-Trump screeds have successfully convinced over half of our population that the war was ill-conceived, and is being poorly executed with no clear objectives to be achieved.  That none of this is…

  • Iran War – on the edge of quagmire?

    George Rebane We have definitely become bogged down in our prosecution of the Iran war.  As we enter the war’s third week, it is clear that no material progress has been made toward ending the conflict for at least the last seven days.  Iran has successfully hunkered down and continues to launch missiles and drones…

  • America’s Foreign Policy Misrepresented

    [This commentary was published in the 10mar26 edition of The Union.] George Rebane Our worthy warriors of the Left continue to bombard us with various messages assembled under the theme of America, the evil racially-drenched imperialist warmonger that seeks to beggar the world to the benefit of its capitalist overlords.  Today TDS is their most…

  • What Unification?

    [This commentary was published in the 11feb26 edition of The Union.] George Rebane That we are a badly divided community gives rise to a steady stream of good-hearted folks hereabouts calling for local residents to come together, to unify.  These attempts at unification go beyond the boilerplate calls with which we are all familiar.  Some…

  • Scattershots – 1feb26 (updated 3feb26)

    George Rebane Gold finally crashed last Friday, dropping to $4,899 from its $5,615 high on Thursday (29jan26).  That’s a 12.75% plunge after starting its most recent run-up last November.  Looking at the price history, it occurred to me that this was no garden variety exponential growth pattern, but something special – super-exponential growth.  Exponentially growing…

  • Greenland’s Realities

    {This commentary was published in the 28jan26 edition of The Union. gjr] George Rebane The 57,000 residents of Greenland live and work in a toy jurisdiction with a miniscule economy, the private sector of which is based overwhelmingly on fishing and seafood exports accounting for approximately 37% of their $3.3B GDP.  The lion’s share (67%)…

  • Father forgive them for they know not …

    George Rebane Yesterday (20jan26) the socialists of Nevada County assembled a small group of Democrats and high school students for a demonstration against ICE’s efforts across the country to arrest and deport people, especially criminals, in the country illegally.  To our proto-communists these federal agents are “fascists” carrying out unconstitutional law enforcement. Now I think…

  • Democrats Ascendant

    George Rebane Republicans are totally missing the dominant sentiments in the country regarding economics, foreign policy, healthcare, and illegal aliens.  Major conservative news and commentary outlets like Fox and Newsmax continue to tout the historic achievements of the Trump administration while paying no mind to what the people believe on Main Street.  These mavens act…

  • Putin’s Ongoing Bamboozle

    George Rebane After President Trump’s telecon with Putin the other day, he announced with great satisfaction that not only did Putin want the war to end, but that Russia was willing to help Ukraine rebuild from country’s devastation caused by Russia’s incessant missile and drone bombardment of Ukraine’s cities and infrastructure.  What astounds many of…
