From ground zero in Michigan: the socialist who vows to bring down the system was manufactured by it — Rhodes Scholar credentials, foundation money and all — while Bessent and the Trump team dismantle the machine that gutted Detroit.
The yen strike, the American System midterm playbook, and the London money behind Michigan's 'new Obama' — seven posts on one war, fought in credit, not bombs. Break the Empire's money power and everything else follows.
In 1775, Americans and Quebec militiamen fought as brothers to free Canada from the British crown. Bob Ingraham on the lie of the "invasion," Franklin's near-miss at the peace table — and why, 250 years later, the question is open again.
We're covering the momentous catch of the Superheavy booster, electric air taxis, extending human lifespans, and building beautiful buildings and cities.
On October 13th, SpaceX successfully plucked the Superheavy booster rocket out of the air with the "Mechazilla arms" attached to the same launch tower from which it had launched (with more than twice the thrust of the Saturn V) about six minutes earlier. This is a key step to setting up permanent human operations on the Moon and Mars.
The current plan is to make this system so reliable, that each Superheavy could be launched several times a day (like an airliner). Until we develop fission or fusion rocket powered space tugs to cycle between the Earth and the Moon, or the Earth and Mars, each Starship launched past Earth orbit will require 6 to 8 refueling flights by other Starships.
We should also note that SpaceX had been waiting since August to get permission from the Federal Aviation Administration to make this flight. The FAA had attempted to delay the launch until late November! Pressure from NASA, Congress, and the general public seems to have had an effect. See the 1 min. video below. MAGA!
"We need to have these things flying safely in the next 36 months!" In this video the CEOs of Joby, Archer, and Wisk—three American electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) air taxi companies—discuss the stultifying processes of FAA certification. Even though they are American companies, building American aircraft, the first commercial use of their systems will be in 2025 in the UAE, because of the determination of Muḥammad bin Zāyid Āl Nahyān (MZB) to foster innovation in his country. They also mention the video that President Trump made about fostering this technology. There is much more here that is worth your time. Despite the FAA, this technology is coming quickly and will have giant effects on the U.S. economy.
Four new nuclear reactors went critical in a single month — America's first in 40 years. Brian Lantz on the factory boom the media won't name, and the apprenticeship programs that pay you to help build it. The hardest problem was never the physics.
Modern science is built from the bottom up — math, then physics, then life, then mind. Every great discovery was made the other way. Bruce Director on how music exposes what your mind can do that no machine ever will — and why it's the key to a new revolution in science.
The chip in your phone, the guidance in your car — all of it came from the race to the Moon. Kesha Rogers on how Apollo ignited the digital age, and why Trump's Artemis Moon base is about to do it again.
Every leading astronomer in Europe tried to find the lost asteroid Ceres with statistics. Every one failed. An unknown 24-year-old, Carl Gauss, found it from 41 days of data — by refusing to calculate and insisting on principle. Bruce Director on why that method is the cure for the age of AI.
