Even on Pause, Trump’s Trade War Runs Up a Big Price Tag
If you’re keeping track—and economists are making their best efforts—President Donald Trump’s trade war with the entire planet is running up quite a price tag.

The Forgotten Cancer Cure Hiding in Plain Sight
Over the last six months, I’ve worked to bring the public’s attention to dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) a forgotten natural therapy which rapidly treats a wide range of conditions and that many studies have shown is very safe (provided it’s used correctly), and, most importantly (thanks to the 1994 DSHEA act which legalized all natural therapies) is now readily […]

Trump claimed that China would call him to “make a […]
Brickbat: Needing a Boost

War With Iran?
There are a number of discussions about a potentially imminent U.S. war on Iran. Yves Smith at Naked Capitalism concludes that a war is more likely than not. Crooke, Mercouris and Diesen are ambivalent (vid) but also seem to expect a conflict. President Trump (or, more correct, Netanyahoo behind him) has made demands towards Iran that are designed to be […]
