Created by Sean Dempsey with sources compiled by AI and some paragraphs tweaked by AI There is a scene in Titanic that ought to be carved over the entrance to every treasury department, congressional cloakroom, central bank, defense ministry, think tank, and marble-walled office where men with clean fingernails discuss the future sacrifices of people […]
by Sean Dempsey | June 25, 2026 It is a matter of great comfort to the people of the United States that, upon reaching the venerable age of two hundred and fifty years, the Republic has at last achieved the maturity of a venerable old man who loudly praises his cherished Bible, meanwhile cheating at […]
by Sean Dempsey | 06/23/26 One must begin, in charity, with the invariable suffering of the average Fox News Boomer Republican. He is not a villain in this drama so much as a carefully cultivated specimen, raised under bright studio lights, fed a steady diet of certainty, and released each evening into the wilderness of […]
By Sean Dempsey | 06/17/26 Somewhere in Washington, locked inside a mahogany box, wrapped in red ribbon, guarded by lawyers, lobbyists, oil executives, Gulf princes, cable-news shamans, and at least three retired generals who now sell Raytheon-flavored wisdom on television, there is allegedly a document. They call it a Memorandum of Understanding. Of course they […]
Disclaimer: Information Sourced with much Assistance from AI | 06/08/26 There was a time, not very long ago, when “America First” meant something almost embarrassingly easy to understand.

It can be abstract, electronic, contractual, or symbolic, but it cannot be only mood. Philosophers […]
by Sean Dempsey The tragedy of the Libertarian Party is not merely that it has become weak, but that it has become weak while imagining itself righteous. At the very hour the republic sinks beneath debt, inflation, censorship, endless foreign entanglements, and the slow strangulation of liberty by the administrative state, the self-congratulating play-actors of […]
Curated by Sean Dempsey (from other thought leaders) Since the CIA, State Department, and other U.S. intelligence agencies have confirmed countless times that Iran was not engaged in a nuclear weapons program, there are several competing theories for why the United States and Israel ultimately moved toward direct (unprovoked) war with Iran in 2025 despite […]
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.
