The insidious nature of debasing the currency (inflation)

by Nathan Barton

“We all know that Trump is not telling the truth about inflation. He apparently believes the phony numbers that the various federal agencies and Wall Street ‘geniuses’ are pushing. Yes, gasoline (and even Diesel) prices are down, but not as much as he is telling us and the press. Yes, prices between $2.10 and $2.50 across much of the Heartland and South are good news. But prices on everything else are continuing to go up (and stay high) after the disastrous actions of Uncle Joe’s regime. And The Donald is not doing – and not able – to do very much. Of course, the problem is that we are not only NOT on a real standard – gold or silver, for example. We are far, far beyond the debasing of the coin that Hickman wrote about in the 1400s in England, and that plagued the SPQR (Rome) and hundreds of regimes throughout history.” (11/07/25)

Memo to Mamdani Voters

Source: Common Sense
by Paul Jacob

“New York City is expensive. Housing is expensive, often prohibitively so. The city has crime problems. Other problems. Answers: Unshackle the housing market? Slash regulations and taxes? Make it easier to catch and punish bad guys? No. Prevent builders from supplying more and cheaper housing. Further hobble the police. Etc. Pro-Hamas socialist Zohran Mamdani has a slew of such pseudo-solutions. And has a large following.” (11/07/25)

Tanzania: Police arrest senior opposition official, hundreds charged with treason

Source: France 24 [French state media]

“Police in Tanzania arrested a senior official from opposition party Chadema on Saturday and authorities named nine others being sought in relation to violent protests that followed last week’s elections. Chadema and some human rights activists say that security forces killed more than 1,000 people. The government has called those numbers exaggerated without offering its own death toll. Chadema said its deputy secretary general, Amani Golugwa, was arrested by police. Golugwa was named by police along with nine others as wanted in connection with the investigation into the unrest, a day after prosecutors charged 145 people with treason.” (11/08/25)
