    American political commentators: Useful idiots of the establishment

    They are idiots, but make no mistake—they are extremely well paid idiots, and their fat paychecks should never be confused with intellectual honesty or moral courage. They speak with the swagger of prophets, yet their principles are nothing more than rental properties, leased out to the highest bidder on any given news cycle. Imagine, for…

  • Venezuela after Trump: Did removing Maduro actually improve the humanitarian crisis?

    Venezuela after Trump: Did removing Maduro actually improve the humanitarian crisis?

    When Donald Trump ordered the US intervention in Venezuela and Nicolás Maduro was captured in January 2026, one obvious question emerged: Would the lives of ordinary Venezuelans actually improve? Maduro presided over an economic and humanitarian catastrophe. Millions fled the country. Poverty became widespread, healthcare deteriorated, basic services failed, and years of economic mismanagement, corruption,…

  • Are Trump and Musk the best friends again?

    Are Trump and Musk the best friends again?

    A year ago, Donald Trump and Elon Musk appeared to have transformed one of the strangest alliances in American politics into one of its most spectacular feuds. Musk attacked Trump’s spending plans, floated the creation of a new political party and even dragged the Epstein files into their increasingly personal dispute. Trump responded in characteristic…

  • Pedophilia: “There’ll be a guillotine for this!” And Trump

    Pedophilia: “There’ll be a guillotine for this!” And Trump

    Since I am open about my lifelong mental health struggles, I am also open about having been institutionalized in a mental hospital. I belong (fortunately) to the small minority of people who need this. So I completely understand people who don’t have a typical sexual orientation. And not everyone needs to be hospitalized (for example).…

  • The forces that created Donald Trump

    The forces that created Donald Trump

    Donald Trump is one of the most polarizing political figures of the twenty-first century. To his supporters, he is the man who challenged a corrupt establishment, defended national interests, and gave a voice to ordinary Americans. To his critics, he represents populism, division, and an assault on democratic norms. Both camps often make the same…

  • How does US democracy survive Donald Trump?

    How does US democracy survive Donald Trump?

    People panic. They imagine one man can destroy everything. They talk about collapse as if it stands one election away. However, that view ignores how the system actually works. It ignores structure, it ignores incentives. It ignores history. The system already survived far worse The United States did not face its first crisis under Trump.…

  • Iran’s leaders: Kill millions, we won’t step down

    Iran’s leaders: Kill millions, we won’t step down

    At the most basic level, leadership carries responsibility. If leaders truly cared about their population, then they would step down when their rule produces suffering, isolation, and death. In other words, this is not an abstract moral idea. Rather, it is a concrete test of responsibility. Therefore, we must ask a direct question. What does…

  • Does Trump shows how to avert WW3 with military superiority?

    Does Trump shows how to avert WW3 with military superiority?

    Of course, he can also get closer to it. But this article talks about military superiority. The strike on Iran was not just about Iran. It was a message. And the real audience was not Tehran. It was Beijing and Moscow. When Donald Trump authorizes a strike that removes a top Iranian leader within hours,…

  • Will a New Monroe Doctrine bring peace?

    Will a New Monroe Doctrine bring peace?

    The international system is entering a phase of open instability. Power no longer concentrates in one center, nor does it move predictably through established institutions. Instead, it fragments across regions, alliances, and competing economic blocs. The West still possesses enormous military, financial, and technological advantages, yet its ability to shape outcomes has clearly diminished. At…

  • WW3: Why Trump’s 50% military increase may prevent escalation

    WW3: Why Trump’s 50% military increase may prevent escalation

    Donald Trump wants to increase U.S. military spending by roughly 50 percent. This proposal immediately provokes outrage across media, academia, and political commentary. Critics frame it as militarism, authoritarianism, or even a step toward dictatorship. These concerns sound reasonable at first glance. However, they focus on symbolism and personality rather than on geopolitical structure. Power…
