By Sean Dempsey | 06/03/2026 There is, in the modern Republic, no more reliable method of discovering an honest man than observing how much money is required to destroy him. The obedient congressman, that cheerful little instrument of appropriations, authorizations, emergency supplementals, continuing resolutions, foreign aid packages, surveillance renewals, debt-ceiling evasions, and all the other […]
by Sean Dempsey | 06/02/24 When I try to make sense of currency in the digital age, I start from a conviction that feels almost embarrassingly old-fashioned: money cannot survive without hard grounding; it must not subsist as mere style. 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.

Stated another way, why does the biblical record return again and again to that solemn sentence, “he […]
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. The Constitution of the United States is not lengthy, nor especially poetic, but it is precise. On the question of war, it is remarkably […]
History doesn’t repeat itself, but it often rhymes.” – Mark Twain tldr; The US and global economies are on verge of an epic collapse. Before end of this year (perhaps even before end of October 2026), we will start to see financial/economic cracks emerge & dominos begin to fall. JAN 05, 2026 – STRATHAM, NH […]
