The Bank-Run Phenomenon by Jacob G. Hornberger November 28, 2022 One of the most fascinating phenomena in financial crises is that of bank runs. That’s when panicked depositors rush to their bank to withdraw their money because they’re convinced that the bank is going broke. Everyone tries to withdraw his money before that happens. If the bank does finally go under, the people who failed to withdraw their ...

What’s Not in the CIA’s Still-Secret JFK Files by Jacob G. Hornberger November 16, 2022 The deadline for the release of the CIA’s long-secret JFK-assassination records is rapidly approaching. The deadline is December 15. As I have previously predicted though, the CIA will demand that President Biden continue its cover-up of its November 22, 1963, regime-change operation, and President Biden will comply with that demand. There is no reasonable possibility that ...
Our Veterans Never Protected Our Freedoms by Jacob G. Hornberger November 15, 2022 One of the trite lines that is repeated over and over again on Veteran’s Day is that veterans should be honored, praised, glorified, and thanked for protecting our freedoms.

Good Riddance on the Tiny Red Ripple by Jacob G. Hornberger November 10, 2022 While we still don’t know how things are going to shake out with respect to control over Congress, conservatives and even some conservative-oriented libertarians are licking their wounds over the fact that their much-anticipated Great Red Wave turned out to be the Tiny Red Ripple. I know that conservatives and conservative-oriented libertarians don’t like hearing this, but ...
The Inanity of the Foreign Agents Registration Act by Jacob G. Hornberger November 9, 2022 Last week, Thomas Barrack, an old friend of former President Donald Trump, was acquitted by a jury in a U.S. District Court in Brooklyn. The charge? The feds were accusing Barrack of having failed to register as a foreign agent of the United Arab Emirates. I don’t know if the jury’s verdict was based on insufficient evidence ...
