Legal System? How about a rigged game? In October, two Trends Journal articles dealt with alleged improprieties committed by federal judges; see “AMERICAN LEGAL SYSTEM: A CRIME SYNDICATE?” (5 Oct 2021) and “ETHICS? WE’RE JUDGES.

APPEALS COURT UPHOLDS CALIFORNIA BULLET LIMIT
When the COVID War began in 2020, realizing that mayhem would follow in many directions, there was a mass rush across America to buy guns. In 2016 California lawmakers imposed a limit on the capacity of firearm magazines, prohibiting possession of magazines holding more than ten rounds, claiming such a limit would help prevent mass...

THE LAST PICTURE SHOW? COVID KILLING MOVIE BIZ
Since the COVID War began last year the Trends Journal has repeatedly forecast that the economic and societal impacts of COVID-19 have proven that “the cure is worse than the disease”; see “THE ‘CURE’ IS WORSE THAN THE DISEASE” (14 Apr 2020), “CURE WORSE THAN THE DISEASE?” (21 Apr 2020), and “COVID WAR COLLATERAL DAMAGE...
WHAT’S UP WITH OMICRON?
Back in 1978, the movie “Jaws 2” (the sequel to 1975’s blockbuster “Jaws”) was introduced and promoted with the line, “Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water.” That line has had various incarnations as a catchphrase (what we now call a “meme”) over the years, and now seems apropos...
HEIL WILHELM: NO RELIGIOUS FREEDOM, MORE MANDATES, SCREW THE CONSTITUTION
Freedom of religion has been assaulted in New York City.

RESET, REMAKE AND BUILD BACK BETTER: SCIENTIFIC MARXISM
Funny how many of the same people who rail against “man-made” climate change have no problem with scientists charging headlong into synthetic biology, transhumanism, Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and dangerous gain-of-function viral experiments. Though some may claim to be bound by “ethics” and regulatory frameworks, disturbing stories on an almost daily basis are signaling that...
IN WASHINGTON GOOD NEWS BECOMES BAD NEWS
By Philip M. Giraldi, Ph.D. The good news is that today is Pearl Harbor Day, which brought about the U.S. entry in World War II, a war that never would have been fought if sanity had prevailed among leading statesmen of that era. The lesson-learned for today should be about the steps that could have...
