"Washington, in an act of incredible stupidity, has driven a dagger through the heart of the US dollar as world reserve currency, thus ending Washington’s ability to pay its bills by printing money. The dagger was the Biden regime’s Russian and other sanctions and the seizure of Russia’s central bank deposits. This finally convinced the rest of the world that holding dollar balances exposed a country to the risk of expropriation or control by Washington.
"Sooner or later the US dollar’s exchange value will fall, setting off high inflation in the US that is outside the control of the central bank. American living standards will fall, and the US will begin to look like India in 1900. The hatred...that Democrats have taught to [minorities] will result in internal war. The only question is whether...Americans will have been so indoctrinated with their guilt that they are unable to defend themselves."
-- Dr. Paul Craig Roberts – Chairman of the Institute for Political Economy, US economist and ex-Assistant Secretary of the Treasury in the Reagan administration, a member of the Cold War Committee on the Present Danger.
Here's a list compiled by Open Source Defense:
Repeal Bush 41’s assault weapon import ban
Redefine “armor-piercing ammo” to re-allow banned ammo types
Redefine 922(r) out of existence
Bring back kitchen table FFLs, and make a new internet-sales FFL (this is in the 2017 ATF white paper)
Repeal the photos and fingerprints parts of ATF Rule 41F (an Obama-era rule change), so that trusts don’t need photos and fingerprints for their members. (Careful here: Rule 41F also changed “you need CLEO approval” to “you just need to notify your CLEO, but they can’t stop you” — that was a very important positive change to keep.)
Expansive allowance for pistol braces. Make it official that anything goes.
Grant a blanket lawful purposes exemption for gun possession to people in the country on nonimmigrant visas (tourists, students, etc.)
Machine gun amnesty
Presumptive approvals for Form 1s and Form 4s. They approve it instantly, and then can claw it back ...
“It is impossible to maintain an integrated multivalent society once neighbors start kidnapping each other's children and murdering them with hand drills, blowing up each other's cultural events, slaying each other's teachers and religious leaders and tearing down their icons. Crucially, it is soberingly worth noting, moreover, that plenty of instances of all those things have occurred already in the West, and all of them have occurred in France alone in the last five years.”
David Betz, Professor of War in the Modern World at King's College London.
Dr. Betz does not mention crimes of rape, perhaps because in France it is so enormously underreported. Only ~6% of victims report to authorities, because of fear of being blamed and charged with Islamophobia or other “hate crime.” Based on these few reported accusations, rape by migrants in France exceeds 10,000 cases in the last five years. Multiply that by the 94% non-reported cases. Sometimes there are witnesses. In ...
The theologian Robert Dabney, in writing against public education, claimed that the half-educated man is worse than the man without any education, for the latter at least knows his ignorance and will look to his betters humbly for guidance, whereas the former thinks he’s educated and proceeds without caution into abject foolishness.
Fast, dumb AI catering to the impatient risks creating a society of not half-educated but entirely pseudo-educated people whose self-appraisal of what they know will reach historic lows proportional to what they actually know.
