BREAKING: U.S. military strikes Iran after President Trump accused Tehran of violating a ceasefire in the Strait of Hormuz.
If Iran violates the ceasefire, and the USA strikes Iran for violating the ceasefire, does the mean the ceasefire is back on?
We truly live in clown world.

Jacob Hornberger at The Future of Freedom Foundation writes a thought provoking piece on Freedom in the United States in 2026.
Yes, our rulers give us more controlled choices than those living in some other countries, but is that freedom? From the perspective of someone who has 0% freedom, 10% freedom looks great. But, is freedom something to be measured on a sliding scale, or is freedom all or nothing: 100% or 0%?
After Jacob's piece, you'll be questioning if we really live in the Land of the Free, or have we been programed by the national anthem to believe we do?

Great article by James Bovard about Consenting to Endless Coercion.
When government acts without our consent we must speak up, because in the eyes of government silence is consent.

James Bovard's article titled, "Consenting to Endless Coercion" is worth reading.
We must be vocal and speak up when government does something without our consent; in the eyes of government, silence is consent.
