This article was originally published by Connor O’Keeffe at The Mises Institute.  Last Sunday, Donald Trump’s Department of Justice announced that they had concluded that Jeffrey Epstein did not have a list of clients and that the convicted sex offender and formerly well-connected financier really did die by suicide. To back that up, the DOJ released video footage from the area outside Epstein’s prison cell that they claimed was raw—although the clip’s metadata indicated it was exported from video editing software—and declared the entire case closed. Of course, the existence of a single client list or the specific manner of Epstein’s death have always…

Senate lawmakers finalized plans Wednesday for a new home loan safety net program designed to prevent veterans from facing foreclosure, replacing a similar but controversial effort canceled by Veterans Affairs officials earlier this year. The bill, known as the VA Home Loan Program Reform Act, had previously passed the House and now awaits President Donald Trump’s signature to become law. It would create a partial claim program for veterans who have fallen behind on housing payments, allowing them to defer a portion of what they owe on their mortgages. In a statement, the Republican and Democratic leaders of the House…

United States ruler, Donald Trump, is claiming that he’s “neutral” on Ukraine, after issuing an ultimatum tied to sanctions and tariffs to Russia, and agreeing to continue arms shipments to Ukraine. The bold-faced lies are becoming too obvious to ignore. On Monday, just two days ago, Trump said he was “very, very unhappy” with Russia, and warned of “severe” secondary tariffs of up to 100% if no progress is made in diplomacy with regard to the war, within 50 days. He fully placed the blame on Moscow, expecting them to bow to his whim at the ultimatum. He also announced upcoming deliveries of…

Those hunters hold out for magnum-sized bulls that hang out in open meadows with snow-capped peaks in the background. This…

China has clapped back at the United States after its ridiculous announcement that sanctions and tariffs of up to 500% would be levied against Russia if it didn’t stop the war with Ukraine in 50 days. Beijing says that the proposed tariffs are actually “illegal.” The U.S. is also taking another economic war to the next level by even threatening to enact such egregious tariffs on another country. China added that the illegal unilateral sanctions” will actually undermine efforts to resolve the Ukraine conflict. Unfortunately, it is not at all difficult to see where this is going. Issuing this kind…
