  • Dropout Derby – 21sep19 update

    George Rebane I guess DeBlasio’s dropout now means that the poor citizens of NYC will have to put up with more of his great urban administrative skills.  Oh well.  With his departure our Estonian Fox and Mr fish have leaped into the lead.  

  • Scattershots – 16sep19 (updated 17sep19)

    George Rebane The Trump haters led by the NYT did their best to relaunch the smear campaign against Justice Kavanaugh.  The formerly prestigious newspaper continued to dig its journalistic grave by publishing a carefully constructed story of another sexual escapade the Justice was supposed to have participated in as an undergraduate, and then later had…

  • Dropout Derby – 21aug19 update

    George Rebane And now Inslee bites the dust.

  • Scattershots – 20aug19 (updated 23aug19)

    “nothing should be done by the state which can be better or as well done by voluntary effort”, William Ewart Gladstone (1809 – 1898) George Rebane I’m old enough to remember when TVs were the big new whizbang thing.  We common folks were then told of all the wonders that a live screen with sound…

  • Democrats’ Big Lie #3671 – America’s economy

    George Rebane In the lead-up to the 2020 election, our Left has marshalled their legion of liars to spread the word to the lightly read that Trump’s revamping of our economy to historical levels has not happened, and that only the top 1% derived any benefit from the tax cuts and regulation rollbacks.  This kind…

  • The tragically populous tails of terror (updated 10aug19)

    George Rebane Last weekend’s El Paso and Dayton shootings are today’s national conversation, a conversation that does not yet communicate much beyond the emotional demand that something must be done.  The conversation is yet a babble that has little reason, meaning, or direction in either working toward a shared understanding of the problem, and most…

  • The Lamestream’s Russia Collusion Illuminated

    George Rebane Holman Jenkins in his ‘What Ails the US Press?’ expands the strong point, much massaged in these pages, that “the media’s lack of interest in the Steele dossier amounts to collusion in a coverup.”  In this 3aug19 WSJ piece he lays it out so well that I decided to let RR readers crawl…

  • Ruminations – 3aug19

    George Rebane Our favorite double-dummy communist, Umair Haque writing in Medium, continues his dive into the abyss of ideological idiocy with his latest essay attempting to explain ‘fascism’ to American readers.  In a piece titled ‘America Is Collapsing Into Fascism Because Americans Still Don’t Understand Fascism’ he does a great job of confusing the matter…

  • Tariffs – who really pays

    George Rebane President Trump’s current tariff wars are definitely having a mixed impact on economies in the US and around the world.  His claim that ‘China is now paying us billions in tariffs’ is patently false.  But most people still think that tariffs on Chinese imports now consist of the imported goods plus a check…

  • Subliminal Manipulation of Votes (updated 8aug19)

    George Rebane This is possibly the scariest post to date on RR.  Dr Robert Epstein’s congressional testimony about the vote manipulation antics of Google and Facebook are jaw-dropping.  Epstein is the former editor-in-chief of the prestigious Psychology Today and continues as Senior Research Psychologist at the American Institute for Behavioral Research & Technology.  In testimony…
