On the Contrary – by Michael Hoffman

You may have heard that earlier this year Amazon.com removed dozens of books for sale on its websitebecause they were judged to be “hateful.”

Books in praise of Communist butchers continue to be sold by Amazon, however.

The media inform us that Twitter has also embarked upon a campaign to nobly cleanse its digital premises of “hate.”   Continue reading “Vladimir Lenin’s ideology of hate is rehabilitated online without censorship or obstruction by hate speech police”

TV personality Rosie O’Donnell offered $2 million to two Republican Senators to vote against the new tax bill – potentially opening herself up to federal bribery charges.

O’Donnell specifically targeted Senators Susan Collins (R-Maine) and Jeff Flake (R-Arizona), who were both slow to say they would support the legislation.

“2 million dollars to Senator Susan Collins and 2 million to Senator Jeff Flake if they vote NO. NO I WILL NOT KILL AMERICANS FOR THE SUOER [sic] RICH. DM (Direct message) me Susan. DM me Jeff. No s**t. $2 million cash each,” she said.  Continue reading “Rosie O’Donnell in ‘bribery’ storm for offering senators $2mn to kill tax reform”

Who would have thought that the president who writes in 140-character missives would suddenly be interested in 70 Gbps wireless internet access?

The White House released its congressionally-mandated National Security Strategy report (warning: PDF) yesterday. Tucked away in a section on improving America’s infrastructure was this action item: “We will improve America’s digital infrastructure by deploying a secure 5G Internet capability nationwide.” Other than natural gas, 5G wireless service was the only area of technology to get a specific calling out for infrastructure.   Continue reading “Ultra-fast 5G wireless service declared national security priority by White House”

The situation in Venezuela is grim and not getting any better. A socialist government has destroyed what used to be one of the healthiest economies in the world and turned it into something for which few were prepared. As we get ready for the holidays here in America, with our usual spending frenzies and feasts, Christmas in Venezuela is looking a lot different than it did a mere decade ago. Maybe some of the young people who think socialism is the answer to all our societal woes will read this and realize that this form of government doesn’t work – it destroys all hope.   Continue reading “Christmas in Venezuela: What It’s Like After Socialism Destroyed the Country”

Not one American in a million will know the real significance of this monumental decision yesterday by President Donald Trump.

So I thought I’d pass it on to you in the US for the purpose of stirring up some of your residents in the local lunatic asylum!

As you will be aware, I’ve previously written books about how the British Monarchy rules the world, including the United States and Europe, through a whole host of secret organisations linked to the City of London.   Continue reading “Secret Reason Why President Trump Appoints Marshall Scholar Neil Gorsuch As Supreme Court Justice”

Global free movement and “safe”, orderly mass migration should be a right for all poor and unskilled migrants from the third world, according to the director general of the United Nations’ Migration Agency.

Penning an article for International Migrants Day entitled, “Our Right of Passage Should Be Safe Migration”, International Organization for Migration (IOM) chief William Lacy Swing opined that the right of “safe migration” should not be limited to the “global elite” – of which the “privileged” caste he believes to include tourists, students, and legal migrant workers – but should be extended to those who would “have no chance of getting a visa or work permit”.   Continue reading “Global Free Movement: UN Chief Calls Migration a ‘Right’ in a ‘World on the Move’”

President Trump on Wednesday issued his first commuted sentence for a federal prisoner, freeing Sholom Rubashkin, the former owner of the country’s largest kosher meat-processing plant who in 2009 was sentenced to 27 years in prison for a litany of financial crimes.

The commutation had bipartisan support from lawmakers and had become a cause among many leading voices in the legal community, petitioning the Obama and Trump administrations to draw attention to a sentence they said was wildly disproportionate to the crime that had been committed.
