I quite other operating systems years ago due to huge Windows crash. I've never looked back.

That's called hedging your bets if you're into war profiteering.

That's too early in the end-time scenario for that to happen. Prior to Armageddon, they're supposed to be a third temple built by the Jews and sometime after that is when the whole battle of Armageddon is supposed to commence.

Pfizer laid its cards on the table in its negotiations with the South African government.

Perhaps people need to take up political philosophy, not political science, and grasp human nature and the constant proclivity of elites aimed at dominating the weak.

Peter Lavelle posts about the Prigozhin sightings in Russia. Is he really dead? Or was this another machination to dupe the masses?

I have read the Lattimore and Fagles' translations of Homer's Iliad and Odyssey and enjoyed them. But, with the publication of Peter Green's translation, I believe the aforementioned now pale in comparison.

Perhaps prepping the masses for round two.

Ignorance perhaps is the greatest form of bondage for an individual and the collective, for without knowledge those with heightened mental acumen prey upon the weak and easily delude them without their being aware. And therefore, freedom is nothing more than a figment of the imagination where ignorance reigns supreme.

Sure perhaps Jewish influences has exacerbated these things, but should one venture to read early-modern political philosophy, he or she would learn that the unbridled pursuit of the sciences, which Sir Francis Bacon and Descartes commenced, undermined many religious mores to the degree that instability began to emerge. These forces unleashed, for better or for worse, the pursuit of wealth at the expense of religion and societal fabric.

Many Catholics I know are closet monarchists too and welcome the fall of liberty so they can usher in their version of the state.

That's extremely strange. Perhaps nationalism fosters some aspects of Nihilism.

I return often to Machiavelli's writings, for the insights offered therein have a timeless quality about them. His political philosophy takes human nature to be a constant factor that rarely, if ever, changes for large swaths of humanity.

And yet most have only heard of or have read "The Prince." Should serious readers desire to broaden their understanding of the Florentine, then they must read his best treatise, "The Discourses on Livy."

If RFK Jr. is not the man for the job, then America's prospects for the future seem grave and even uncertain. The political chicanery of the past few years have pushed many Americans to distrust the political system bequeathed to us. And these abuses will allow figures of chaos to ascend to the helm as means through which the people will vent their hatred and revenge on the political class at the expense of the societal fabric.

RFK Jr. could serve as a moderating figure and extend the life of the country; however, should Trump be imprisoned, the people will rally around him and perhaps give him dictatorial powers to crush those the people perceive as enemies. Once given such power, and considering Trump's character, it's unlikely he'd cede the powers granted back to the people. Nominating RFK Jr. and letting him debate Trump may convince the people that Trump pales in comparison with the former.
