Market Crash and Global War?

Several have asked about the projection model and whether anything regarding the war and economic upheaval has changed since Trump was elected. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, and I am sorry to report that, unfortunately, everything is status quo. In fact, I venture to say that perhaps things are right on […]

Defining the Irony of the Left

Last night, I was thinking about a few things, and a thought crossed my mind that just pissed me off. How are people so easily led into something they would otherwise hate? But instead of hating it, they learn to love it and defend it as though it were doing something great. Let me give […]

Is It Time To Talk About Gun Laws Yet?

It took only minutes before people began to exploit the tragedy in Las Vegas for their political agendas regarding gun laws. It’s so unfortunate, too, because instead of finding solutions for real problems, stupidity was spread to the ignorant that follow. As a result, many good people whose hearts may be in the right spot […]

History Doesn’t Repeat – But It Does Rhyme

NOTE: This model has been updated and refined to provide a more accurate and comprehensive understanding of historical cycles. While the original 61-10-10 model (below) offered valuable insights, its highly restrictive framework and date-related discrepancies led to limitations in predictive value. This has been corrected. With the help of AI-driven analysis, the model has been […]

Give Some REAL Thought to the Civil War

Let’s talk about the Civil War for a bit. Have you seen PragerU’s video featuring Col. Ty Seidule? If not, you should watch it before you read this. Now, Col. Seidule is a history professor at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point. That’s impressive and let me start by saying that I have a […]

Major Causes of Death The Media Won’t Tell You

In light of some of the recent news about firearms and other major causes of death, I thought I would take a little bit to dig into some of the recent data and see what (if anything) has changed since last year. Referencing sources such as the FBI, the CDC, and peer-reviewed journals, I have […]

Let Me Draw You Some Pictures… Because I’m Nice

RANT WARNING – CONDESCENDING STATEMENT (AND PICTURES) AHEAD In a recent post, Two Really Ignorant Statements And What You Should Know, I covered some of the numbers associated with the current economic situation. Somehow, some didn’t get it. I venture to say they simply didn’t read it. Yes, it’s long. I’m sorry, but our problems, […]

The Economic Upheaval Has Already Begun

Question: “David, when will the economic upheaval or shift you talk about begin to happen?” Answer: “It has already begun, but it will get worse in the coming years.“ Citing World Bank data, a brief from the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) claims that up to two-thirds of all jobs in the […]

Snowden the Movie: A Review

By now, you’ve probably heard about Edward Snowden, the C.I.A. analyst turned classified-document dumping whistle-blower who now lives his life in Russia because he fears arrest by his own government – for exposing the illegal activities of said government. Perhaps you have watched Laura Poitras’s Oscar-winning documentary, “Citizenfour,” filmed largely in the Hotel Mira back […]

World War III – A Scenario Worth Reviewing

Tensions are high around the world. Some believe that the world’s superpowers are about to collide in a massive world war. Others envision a war with China or Russia in a one-on-one scenario. Either way, most know that something big is about to occur. Unfortunately, this might be sooner rather than later. The truth is that […]
