Human Race Must Never Give in to AI or Governments
To remain competitive, humans must show up. Humans add the most value in high-income nations. In these nations, humans’ total fertility rate has been below the replacement level of 2.1 since 1974. On top of that, today’s artificial narrow intelligence is a mixed bag. AI does provide convenient tools for searching, developing designs, and optimizing processes.

That makes 23 boats blown up by the US military in the waters off Latin America – most near Venezuela – and nearly 100 persons killed. To date the US government has provided no evidence to back up its claim that these boats are smuggling fentanyl and other dangerous drugs into the United States.

Kennedy Jr.’s “Make America Healthy Again” effort to overhaul the childhood vaccine schedule amid questions over the exponential rise in childhood autism.

Perhaps it’s just an association of ideas, but the slaughter of the Ukrainian girl, Iryna Zarutska on a Charlotte train, and President Trump writing “Here We Go!” on his Truth Social account in response to a breach of Polish airspace by Russian drones, made me wonder if the “Fourth Turning” is upon us. The United States can’t even keep known homicidal maniacs off its public transportation, but it still wants to control the world.

Peter recently returned to the Mining Network for an interview with Peter Gadsdon.

Peter ties all of these threads to a larger theme — loss of confidence in fiat money and the growing logic for holding sound money. He opens by calling out a recent deal struck by President Trump and Nvidia that oversteps constitutional authority and functions like an export tax.

It is imperative that the newer generation of LRC readers become cognizant of, and acquainted with, the chain of historical events which led up to today’s National Security State and the American empire. From Harry Truman to Donald Trump, we have seen an out-of-control executive branch wage unconstitutional, undeclared wars by centralizing power in the presidency. How did this all come about?

Price Inflation Rose in June to a Five Month High—But Don’t Blame Tariffs
Price inflation is moving up again, in spite of President Trump’s repeated (and false) claims that prices are falling. The media isn’t right either, though, since much of the media consensus about June’s stubbornly high price inflation trend is that it was caused by tariffs. Tariffs however, are not inflationary. The price inflation we now see is the continued legacy of the monetary inflation of Trump-Biden efforts to embrace huge deficits and pressure the Federal Reserve to push interest rates downward with easy-money policies. According to the latest price inflation data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the consumer price index rose … https://www.lewrockwell.com/2025/07/ryan-mcmaken/price-inflation-rose-in-june-to-a-five-month-high-but-dont-blame-tariffs/
