JFK’s War by Jacob G. Hornberger March 25, 2022 People sometimes ask me whether there is any relevance of the Kennedy assassination to where we are today as a country. My answer is direct and unequivocal: Understanding the Kennedy assassination is essential to understanding many of the crises into which our nation has been plunged, especially in foreign affairs but also with respect to out-of-control federal spending and debt. It also provides us with what we need to do to get our nation back on the right track. Ever since the assassination, the official lie has been that Lyndon Johnson simply continued Kennedy’s policies. That may have been true with respect to welfare-state programs such as Medicare and Medicaid and civil rights, but it has always been a lie with respect to foreign policy. In fact, it was Kennedy’s foreign policy that ended up getting him killed. In my new book An Encounter with Evil: The Abraham ...
An Encounter with Evil: The Abraham Zapruder Story by Jacob G. Hornberger March 21, 2022 My new book An Encounter with Evil: The Abraham Zapruder Story has now gone live on Amazon. I am confident that you all will enjoy reading this book. I have been working on it since last summer. I consider it the best work I’ve done in the 32-year history of The Future of Freedom Foundation. The book is $9.95 for the Kindle version and $14.95 for the print version. You can buy it at Amazon here. People sometimes ask me what relevance the Kennedy assassination has to our lives today. My new book answers that question completely. It shows how the assassination bears a direct relationship to the foreign-policy crises that confront our nation today and, equally important, what we need to do to extricate ourselves from these crises. My book revolves around a book entitled Twenty-Six Seconds: A Personal History of the Zapruder Film, which ...
JFK’s Rejection of the Pentagon’s and CIA’s Anti-Russia Animus by Jacob G. Hornberger March 18, 2022 One of the things that the mainstream media has always ignored was President Kennedy’s rejection of the extreme anti-Russia animus that characterized the Pentagon and the CIA during the Cold War. In fact, for a long period of time, the media continued maintaining the official lie that President Lyndon Johnson had simply continued Kennedy’s policies after his assassination. Nothing could be further from the truth, and given what is going on in Ukraine and, more important, given the extreme anti-Russia animus that has been coming out of the Pentagon and the CIA for decades, JFK’s rejection of such animus becomes more pronounced. It’s true that during the Cold War, we were dealing with the Soviet Union rather than Russia. But the fact is that Russia was the principal member and the driving force within the Soviet Union. Moreover, don’t forget that the U.S. national-security establishment maintained that it was in ...
The U.S. National Security State’s Legacy of Death and Destruction by Jacob G. Hornberger March 15, 2022 Unfortunately, the massive death and destruction that the U.S. national-security establishment has produced in Ukraine with its political gamesmanship involving NATO and Russia is not the first time that its interventionism has produced such a horrific result. In fact, the entire legacy of the U.S. national-security state form of government, which was brought into existence after ...
Ludwig von Mises’s Free Market Agenda for a Postwar Ukraine by Richard M. Ebeling March 14, 2022 Our television screens and social media sites are filled with the images of death and destruction as the Russian army continues its devastating advance into Ukraine. How long this will go on, and with what human and material costs is still not known. But for the Ukrainian people and their country’s economy, the world is, truly, being turned upside ...
Sanctions Kill Innocent People and Also Destroy Our Liberty by Jacob G. Hornberger March 11, 2022 While American statists are cheering the U.S. government’s sanctions on Russia, 71-year-old John Hanick shows us how the cheers are also for the destruction of the rights and liberties of the American people. That’s because U.S. officials have just charged Hanick, who is an American citizen who once worked at Fox News as a director, with a federal ...
Pushing toward Nuclear War by Jacob G. Hornberger March 9, 2022 According to Yahoo! News, “More than two dozen foreign policy experts have called for the United States and NATO to institute a partial no-fly zone over Ukraine, which would serve as an escalation of the conflict with Russia.” Joining them is Illinois Republican Congressman Adam Kinzinger, who also happens to be a former Air Force combat officer. That ...
How JFK Would Have Handled the Ukraine Crisis by Jacob G. Hornberger March 3, 2022 There is no doubt that President Kennedy would have handled the Ukraine crisis totally different from the way that President Biden has handled it. Unlike Biden, Kennedy would have resolved the situation so that there never would have been a Russian invasion of Ukraine, which would have meant that all the death and suffering being wreaked in that ...
The Power to Assassinate by Jacob G. Hornberger March 1, 2022 The power to assassinate has become so deeply entrenched within the national-security branch of the federal government that hardly anyone gives it a second thought. State-sponsored assassinations now occur on a regular basis, especially in the Middle East. Most everyone, especially the mainstream press, treats them in a nonchalant, ho-hum way. Hardly anyone questions where this extraordinary power to ...
Corrupt Federal Statistics Cover Endless Cons by James Bovard March 1, 2022 Federal agencies don’t count what politicians don’t want to know. President Joe Biden and other Democrats perennially invoke “science and data” to sanctify all their COVID-19 mandates and policies. But the same shenanigans and willful omissions that have characterized COVID data have perennially permeated other federal programs. The rule of experts? During his update on his Winter COVID Campaign in December, ...
The Libertarian Brand by Laurence M. Vance March 1, 2022 While U.S. presidential elections are held every four years, U.S. senators serve a six-year term, and members of the U.S. House of Representatives are elected every two years. A midterm election is an election where the entire House of Representatives and one-third of the Senate are up for election, but the president is not. These elections always occur two ...
Dismantle the U.S. National-Security State, Now by Jacob G. Hornberger February 28, 2022 Let’s begin with a book that I have been recommending to people for quite some time now. It is entitled National Security and Double Government by Michael J. Glennon. According to Wikipedia, “From 1977-1980, he was counsel to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Glennon was professor of law at the University of California, Davis from 1987-2002, and ...
