Throughout the Russo-Ukrainian war, Senator Lindsey Graham has been a primary instigator. His involvement goes back to at least 2016, when he visited Ukraine and told soldiers that "your fight is our fight", while accusing Russia of "hacking our elections".After the war truly kicked off in 2022, Graham told Americans that funding Ukraine was an excellent investment. It was simple, according to the...Read More
"Are you looking for the Holland America check-in? Or Princess? Or Viking?"The polite, smiling greeter was addressing me, and I was surprised. My mind was elsewhere."No, thank you," I replied. "No cruise ships. I'm here for work.

In 1970, silver traded at around $1.60 per ounce. By its peak in 1980, it reached $49.45. A handsome 30x return.The story of how it got there is full of intrigue and conspiracy. We'll get to that. But first, a little background is in order.Monetary demand for silver had collapsed after the U.S. and other countries stopped using it in coins in 1965. Before that, America's dimes and quarters were 90...Read More

Elizabeth rounded the edge of the house. There, in the back yard were two of Pierre's prize cows. Sleek. Fat. Muscled. They were the kind of limousine cows that butchers must dream about."Oh no….they're going to eat our flowers."She called Pierre."Just close your gate so they can't get out onto the road," he advised. "It's too dark for me to get them now. I'll come in the morning."And don't...Read More
