We must now take seriously the possibility that it will be the resurrection of a shared culture, not its abandonment, that will make possible our continued survival and cohesion. The Technological Republic: Hard Power, Soft Belief, and the Future of the West (2025) George Rebane The Big Beautiful Bill is now on a rocky road…

George Rebane “California’s poverty rate has increased significantly, with disproportionate impacts on Black and Laninx residents” during the Biden years (2021-2024). The California Budget & Policy Center reports (here) on the continuous disaster foisted on our formerly golden state by the double dummy Democrats who inhabit Sacramento at all levels. And it is getting worse…

George Rebane Today the Rebanes landed on these shores 76 years ago (here). It was the most fortuitous and wisest move by my parents to accept America’s 1948 invitation to the Balts then ensconced in displaced persons camps all over West Germany. It has been documented many times since by historians and journalists that the…

George Rebane Given the choices I remain a Trump supporter. I have voted for him three times. But as RR pages witness and its readers know, I am not an uncritical acolyte of his administration. He has totally misread what may be termed the elements of negotiating with totalitarians, especially those of the communist stripe…

George Rebane Trump is being played by Putin for all to see, and the man has finally stumbled into one of his blind spots, apparently without a clue. In brokering the Ukraine/Russia peace he is announcing daily progress with Russia, who continues to bomb the crap out of Ukraine’s civilian centers, and dunning Zelensky for…

George Rebane My tariff laments are on record in these pages. I am not alone in my consternation about how the administration is conducting this part of our nation's economy. CATO scholar Scott Lincicome sums up President Trump’s ‘Liberation Day’ Trump's reciprocal tariffs: 1) Impose hundreds of billions of dollars in new taxes on Americans…

George Rebane The Democrats daily ventures into leftwing extremes are too many to count, but unfortunately too easy to witness. Nationally prominent Democrat author and pollster Doug Schoen, a centrist, openly laments that the Democrat Party’s embrace of socialism and collectivist extremes is not only unabated, but picking up steam. Led by Bernie Sanders and…

George Rebane DOGE is the new leftwing hysteria du jour. It has displaced climate change as the issue that gets most folks’ undies in a bundle. The whole ‘Resist!’ movement of the Left is based on Democrat politicians’ lies and gratuitous fake news reports by the lamestream media. DOGE is a new government agency charged…
-
George Rebane That is the seldom spoken yet common goal of socialists, communists, Islamic extremists/terrorists, our Democratic party, and generally of leftwing ideologues worldwide. When confronted with this reality and its confirming historical record, today’s intellectual Democrat (yes, there are some) will deny it. The time is not yet right for its public cotillion. Recent…

George Rebane [24apr25 – This piece was submitted to The Union on 23 May 2025 for their Other Voices op-ed contributions. Not only was it not published, but they did not even deign to answer my follow-on inquiries about its acceptance and status. Clearly I stepped over their editorial line with this piece. The same…
