Generally speaking, central banks are empowered to control the supply of money by employing a number of tools that include buying government debt, selling government bonds, adjusting reserve requirements, and setting official interest rates. Operating under various legal mandates to sustain an overall healthy economy, central banks ostensibly pursue policies that will produce relatively low inflation, steady economic growth, and low public unemployment.
What if these stated goals are merely talking points meant to justify a central bank's continued monopoly over a nation's creation of money, and the true objective of any central bank is to maximize wealth for the wealthiest economic players?

Experiments are traditionally conducted in accord with an established framework. They begin with an introductory statement of the issue to be addressed. The goal of the experiment is then clearly defined, followed by a discussion of the methods to be employed in arriving at the stated goal, culminating in a presentation of the results of the experiment for consideration by peers and concerned parties.
The American Experiment was devised and initiated in 1776 after the Revolutionary War freed the colonies from the British monarchy. Its goal was to create a society in which the government derived its power from the consent of the governed

The Biden hits just keep coming. Trust in government is collapsing. Americans are starting to wonder what passes for "normal" in Washington, if this is a return to normalcy. According to Pew Research, only about 20 percent of Americans trust the government to do what's right. That leaves 80 percent who expect government to do what is wrong — as in morally and ethically wrong.
Joe's fundraising is also lackluster. Politico reports that the Dems are concerned that Joe isn't inspiring their donor class anymore. If this keeps up, the party isn't going to have the money it needs to steal the next election.

In order to get Hunter Biden out from under attack the Biden family successfully adopted the Ukrainian experience: as a result, the Ukrainian Burisma case and the American Hunter case are closed under the same scheme – by changing the charges, striking a deal with the investigation, pressuring judicial authorities and fictitious conduct of criminal investigations.
The intensified activity of the Oversight and Accountability Committee of the U.S. House of Representatives, led by James Comer, and the emergence of more and more evidence of corruption schemes involving the president’s family

Like some other commentators, I have in recent years several times quoted a famous exchange from Ernest Hemingway’s first novel, The Sun Also Rises. Recent developments in the Biden family money laundering scheme, the implosion of a boutique underwater expedition to the Titanic, and a possible coup in Russia prompt me to wheel it out once again. “‘How did you go bankrupt?’ Bill asked. ‘Two ways,’ Mike said. ‘Gradually, then suddenly.’”
It fits the long-running drama over Hunter Biden’s laptop from hell, I think. Miranda Devine broke news of that scandal in the New York Post in the run-up to the 2020 presidential election.

A scholar at Harvard who specializes in dishonesty has been accused of making up the findings in one of her major studies on the subject.
You couldn’t make this up.
Academia already has a major problem being perceieved as overwhelmingly leftist, now this. According to a report from the New York Times, “reverberations” are going through the academic community as one of the leading scholars in behavioral psychology has been accused of fabricating findings in a major study on honesty.
The report claimed that the field of behavioral science, an area of research often seen with much “skepticism” from other scientists, “may have sustained its most serious blow yet” thanks to evidence

The battle between communism and freedom has many chapters, from people jumping The Berlin Wall to Mariel, Cuba in 1980. I saw the ugly face of communism as a boy, when my father's cousin was thrown in jail for publicly denouncing Castro. He was arrested in 1961 and released in 1975. Never had a trial, and forget about anybody reading him his Miranda rights. They don't do that in communist countries.
We remember a great moment from the 20th century, or the day that U.S. and U.K. planes began dropping supplies to the people of West Berlin isolated by the USSR blockade.

Miami Mayor Francis Suarez (R) was asked by Fox News host Kayleigh McEnany on Thursday why he decided to vote for Democrat Andrew Gillum over Ron DeSantis during the gubernatorial race in 2018. Suarez, who has joined the 2024 presidential race, explained he only voted for Gillum, not endorse him. Suarez added he donated to money to DeSantis during the primary but he did not get a phone call back from the future governor.
"Well, I voted for him. I didn’t support him. I didn’t endorse him. I actually supported and gave money to Ron DeSantis

The Biden corruption story is becoming as messy as Hunter Biden’s stay at the Chateau Marmont, gaining traction outside conservative media. The Biden White House knew bad news was coming this week: Thursday saw the House Ways and Means reveal credible testimony from IRS whistleblowers that they were hamstrung in their investigations of Hunter Biden. Delaware US Attorney David Weiss wanted to charge Hunter in March 2022 but was blocked. It also doesn’t help that everyone can see through Hunter’s recent plea deal, where he’ll avoid jail on gun and tax evasion charges. That might put out some fires, but there’s an emerging wildfire emanating

On Tuesday it was reported that Hunter Biden had struck a deal with federal prosecutors to plead guilty to two tax misdemeanors while his felony firearm possession charge would be effectively dismissed via a pretrial diversion — a resolution only reserved for a Biden.
In 2021, for example, fewer than 1 percent of cases filed by U.S. attorneys in federal court resulted in the same pretrial diversion offered to Hunter. No such resolution was offered, for example, to the rapper Kodak Black. According to Black’s lawyer, Black — a two-time Grammy Award nominee — got 3 years for the same offense.

Yale Law School professor Oona Hathaway wrote an especially revealing Guest Essay in the pages of the New York Times. By aiding the government’s exceptional indictment against a former U.S. president, she may have violated several laws; the American Bar Association (ABA) Model Rules of Professional Conduct; and the American Association of Law School (AALS) Statement on “Law Professors in the Discharge of Ethical and Professional Responsibilities.”
Hathaway’s essay demonstrates how extreme ideological fervor can make law professors “legally blind” to what the law actually says. However, Hathaway’s essay, which is but one of many such partisan essays by law professors

In a story that’s captured international attention, world champion kickboxers Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan find themselves in the crosshairs of Romania’s judicial system. Or, as Tate prefers to call the system: ‘The Matrix.’ The brothers stand accused of horrific crimes, including rape, human trafficking, and orchestrating an organized crime group for the sexual exploitation of women. Despite the severity of these allegations, the handling of this case has raised numerous eyebrows, becoming a poignant example in the ongoing debate over justice, fairness, and due process.
