America The Aggressor

It's been a week now, and I'm finally able to come to terms with the stark reality that for the first time in our country's history, we have attacked a country without provocation. Iran did not first attack us. Iran cannot reach American shores with its weapons. Iran has sworn off the use of nuclear bombs.Despite these facts, and before the next round of negotiations that could have prevented the conflict, US President Donald J. Trump ordered American forces to open fire on Saturday, February 28, 2026.

Our Uneven Path To Dow 50,000

As markets climb higher and higher, or, as Wall Street says, "When the Bull starts to run," it has an intoxicating effect for all involved. For investors, it gives them a feeling of invincibility, as if they have magically discovered the key to all wealth, no less, for the nation's corporate managers.

Trump Stops The New START Treaty - The Nuclear Arms Race Begins Shortly

In what is likely the most reckless move by a US President in our lifetimes, President Donald J. Trump has ignored all efforts to continue the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START). Asked by the Press if he thought an extension was worthwhile, Trump replied that it "sounded like a good idea," yet he did nothing. When President Putin of Russia offered to extend the Treaty for one more year, Trump ignored his request.

Want To Know What's Happening With Iran? Watch The Carriers

For the second time in seven months, the United States stands at the precipice of another military conflict with Iran. For the average citizen, like you and me, it is often difficult, if not impossible, to determine how and why these conflicts have come about.

President Trump Prepares To Walk Back From the Third, and Last Nuclear Treaty

Here we see the most hawkish President in the nuclear era. A leader who is willing to let existing disarmament treaties expire with absolutely no American effort to preserve them. Exactly why this is the case is uncertain. It may be Trump's repeated assertion that international agreements aren't worth the paper they're written on. Or perhaps he believes that his personality is such that he can convince any adversary to choose the path of peace, and therefore, treaties aren't needed. Or there is a third alternative, more sinister, that President Trump is willing to risk nuclear annihilation.

A Darkness Descends Upon Washington

The year began with two ongoing conflicts that could only continue with American support. When sworn in on January 20, 2025, there was some question whether the newly reelected Donald Trump would continue supporting the conflicts in Gaza and Ukraine. He had campaigned on a pledge to end the war in Ukraine in a day and curtail all overseas war, which presumably included the conflict in Gaza.For one brief moment, peace was in the air, and many looked forward to a time when all these wars would come to an end.

Venezuela And The Importance Of International Law

We live in a world founded upon the twin pillars of international law and international cooperation. The United States, above all others, has benefited from the free flow of goods and services, which have brought us one of the highest standards of living in the world.
