The Libertarian Opposition is Rising…
J’Accuse this inept and corrupt administration! J’Accuse it not in defense of a foreign regime, nor in blind loyalty to any rival power, but in defense of TRUTH itself, which is forever the first casualty of dogged empire. J’Accuse those who would drape every reckless adventure abroad in the crimson flag of patriotism, as though […]
By Sean Dempsey, 04/28/26 We stumbled into the sun like criminals fleeing a sex crime we could not remember committing. It felt like Monday. But time and sanity meant nothing to us in the fog of drink and this sublime orgy of heat-infused alcohol and sin. The El Dorado resort still stretched before us in […]
War, that most vain and venerated instrument of national pride, does not merely nudge the price of petrol upward, it rends asunder the delicate machinery of trade itself. Ships are halted, roads reduced to rubble, and the humble materials upon which industry depends are spirited away, so that fewer goods are fashioned while the public, […]
by Sean Dempsey | 04/06/24 There once were, in a certain indistinct corner of a Canadian kingdom whose borders were always expanding on paper yet never visited in person, two brothers who came into possession of adjoining lands.

Bitter and anguished cries shook […]

And, guess what? I also staunchly believe […]
By Sean Dempsey February 12, 2026 Today’s Republican Party often resembles an 11-year-old boy’s action-figure fantasy. Many in the GOP base, predominantly angry men, are acting out a macho daydream: blustering about “toughness” toward enemies foreign and domestic. They thump their chests about cracking down on Iran, putting the boot on the head of illegal […]
NB: There is no “right way” to deal with what’s coming. And what’s coming will be catastrophic. Especially if/when the commercial real estate market implodes (as early as Q1 2026). But the most important thing is being able to anticipate the coming issues (before others) and get a leg up to protect you and your […]
By Sean Dempsey, 01/06/25 Before discussing presidents, missiles, or the moral abstractions of foreign policy, it may be wise to consult the document that claims to authorize such discussions at all.
