  • Atrocious Asymmetries Abound

    George Rebane We take a look at the most recent lopsided lamestream reporting and actions by the Deep State – short version: the beat goes on. Hillary Clinton is an existential criminal as corroborated by abundant evidence released to the public and more that must still be classified.  An available paper trail, including money changing…

  • Deep State’s Rogue Roots (3feb18 update)

    George Rebane In a republic the only government oversight the people have is through their elected representatives, and that is necessarily political. The 2feb18 release of the Nunes memo underscores a serious concern that has arisen among most Americans since the Obama era national elections, and now heightened by the suspicious goings on during and…

  • ‘Truth Decay’ (updated 23jan18)

    George Rebane [This is the addended transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 17 January 2018.  A slightly edited version of the broadcast commentary appears here in the 20jan18 Union.] We are now such a tragically polarized nation that almost all of us believe we are being misled through the various media.  We believe…

  • How China Infiltrated U.S. Classrooms

    Russ Steele Taking a lesson from the progressives who have taken over the American education system, spending more time on indoctrination than teaching, China has joined the propaganda brigade. From Politico: Last year, the University of North Carolina at Charlotte made an announcement to great fanfare: The university would soon open a branch of the…

  • Scattershots – 15jan18 (updated 18jan18)

    George Rebane Here are a couple of items that are guaranteed to call out the Collectivist Cricket Corps. High tax states like California and New York are now suddenly devising legislative back flips trying to keep their rich from moving out.  They have come up with a ruse to favor those daily vilified filthy rich…

  • Scattershots – 29dec17 (updated 30dec17)

    George Rebane Rural towns and big cities divide in their populations and prosperity.  While bigger cities have become more prosperous, smaller towns and rural communities have suffered.  The reasons are many and well summarized in an article by Paul Overberg that presents the relevant data in good graphical formats.  The piece begins with – About…

  • Sweeping Tax Bill Promotes Fake News (updated 22dec17)

    'You get less of what you tax more.'  Alan Greenspan, et al George Rebane This morning on CSPAN I watched the House finally pass the long-fought tax reform bill, and send the legislation to President Trump for his signature.  The Republicans are breathing a sigh of relief while the Democrats are still breathing fire.  Actually,…

  • US Students’ PISA Ratings

    George Rebane The latest (2015) release of PISA (Programme for International Student Assessment) scores are out, and the all important ratings for 15-year-olds in now a matter of record.  We have long mourned the performance deficits in our educational system and the resulting standing our students have on the international stage where America must compete…

  • Democratic Socialists of America (updated 14nov17)

    Lord, give me coffee to change things I can change, wine to accept the things I cannot change, and bourbon to forget about the whole mess. George Rebane DSA candidates running openly as socialists under the Democrat banner now have 35 seats in the country’s state legislatures.  “Tuesday’s election night gains for the group were…

  • Scattershots – 10nov17 (updated 11nov17)

    George Rebane That progressivism is an evil ideology, evil in the sense that it stifles wholesale liberty, individual freedoms, entrepreneurship, grass roots altruism (charity), … .  ‘Stifles’ is too weak of a notion by far if we are to hear the prescriptions for creating their new America (i.e. Obama’s “fundamental transformation”).  Longtime RR discussant Gregory…
