A look at the latest developments in the election hacking controversy and the motivations behind it. The mainstream media continues to pursue its alliance with the Clinton machine!

Christmas has arrived at last! The holidays mark a welcome respite from a contentious election cycle, one that didn't end even when November 8 came and went.

Tonight we examine the controversy over "Fake News" and the claim that Russian hacking determined the outcome of the election. We will also explore the geopolitical situation and why Donald Trump's emerging foreign policy direction makes sense.
While the stock market is enjoying a post-election rally, the challenges facing the broader economy remain formdable. Fifty years ago John F Kennedy promised an economic revival through tax cuts coupled with an expansion of government power. Trump is also attracted to tax cuts, but wants to bring the government octopus under control. Rendition of "Jingle Bells" via the US Air Force Band at Union Station, Washington DC…

The first presidential debate will occur on September 26. The debates will be moderated by a journalistic class with a firm liberal world view. They have grown very comfortable with the crony capitalism epitomized by Democratic corporatist Hillary Clinton. The boundaries between government, media and big business have been eroding, and the nation's policy making apparatus is in the grip of a seemingly unshakeable consensus. More and more, the power players seem to inhabit a detached, complacent world that calls to mind the privileged enclave of Stratos in the classic Star Trek episode. But many ordinary Americans have become very angry with the system, as their perceptions of both national and economic security deteriorate under the pressure of events. This setting will be a formidable challenge for Donald Trump despite his recent bounce in the polls. Tonight we will explore debates as political theater,. The winner will be the one who effectively communicates a vision that resonates with the voters,…
The Republican Party, in theory at least, has been a defender of free enterprise and markets for many decades. But the rise of the global economy, coupled with open borders and multiculturalism, has reignited old arguments on both free trade and immigration. The emergence of Donald Trump as the GOP presidential nominee and the primary challenge to Paul Ryan show just how badly globalization has shattered the postwar consensus. We take a brief look at the theory of comparative advantage and why people are questioning its applicability to the current economic scene.…
We pause to pay tribute to the murdered police officers in Dallas. Then a look at the politics of the week, dominated by FBI Director James Comey's announcement that the Bureau will not recommend an indictment of Hillary Clinton. Plus a review of the financial markets at mid-year. Is the market sending recession signals, despite an upbeat jobs report in June?…
Donald Trump is an unconventional candidate to say the least. Some conservatives are appalled at his heterodoxy, while some establishment Republicans are appalled at his style. So why did he get so many votes? Part of the explanation lies in the Republican party itself. While movement conservatism is important, the Republican party is a coalition of groups with practical interests and concerns. They are not happy with the direction of the country and the inability of the Republican Congress to right the ship. The situation is very similar to 1952 and the epic battle between pragmatist Dwight Eisenhower and conservative icon Robert Taft. The country wasn't working right, and people wanted it fixed. We will take a look at the 1952 GOP convention and the Eisenhower phenomenon in order to better understand the dynamics of today.…

The political primary season is often a frustrating experience - it's long, drawn-out, and governed by confusing rules. Like life in general, the outcomes are often unfair and certainly debatable. But the modern, voter-driven primary is essential to the political process and confers legitimacy on the ultimate winner. Tonight we take a look at the rise of the primary in the presidential nominating process and its importance. Plus, to mark the end of the annual tax filing season, a couple of thoughts about the federal income tax system.…
