Quicksand (1950)
How Could We Have Been so Naive About Big Tech?
Commentary The 1998 movie “Enemy of the State” starring Gene Hackman and Will Smith seemed like fiction at the time. Why I didn’t regard that movie—which still holds up in nearly every detail—as a warning I do not know. It pulls back the curtain on the close working relationship between national security agencies and the communications industry—spying,…
TikTok: CCP Is Waging Psychological Warfare Against the US; Daniel Turner Calls Out Green Agenda
China’s use of psychological control, fear, and subconscious manipulation on the United States is shaping our fear of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). I break down how psychological warfare is impacting children through apps like TikTok as well as breaking down the mental barriers of adults. Its goal? To generate self-censored behaviors that shape favorable conditions…
WEF and CCP: The Effort to Subvert Humanity; Republican Lawmakers on US–Taiwan Relationship at CPAC
The World Economic Forum (WEF) publishes a new censorship piece. Much like China, it wants to have a “one world government” formula rooted in communism. What else? I break down why the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is using the WEF to achieve total world domination. Plus, I spoke with four Republican lawmakers on the current U.S.-Taiwan…
The Emergence of Neo-Fascism in Public Health
Commentary Fascism is the art of hiding the truth behind a facade of wholesome virtue. It is, presumably, as old as humanity. Mussolini just gave it a name—hiding his authoritarian ideas behind the drainage of swamps, village renewal, kids in school, and trains running on time. The 1930s picture of Nazism was not broken windows…
Mindfully Free of Wanting People to Be a Certain Way
One of the biggest sources of difficulties for every single human being is the desire for people to be a certain way. We can’t seem to help it: we want the world to be the way we want it. Unfortunately, reality always has different plans, and people behave in less-than-ideal ways. The problem isn’t other…
The Subordinate Citizen
Commentary I recently led a group of about 100 citizens to tour Israel for nearly two weeks. Before returning to the United States, all participants had to indicate their vaccination status and take a COVID-19 test for reentry. Anxieties swept the group as Israeli testers swabbed them. Anyone testing positive would have to delay his…
The Loss of Trust Is Well Earned
Commentary Society is broken at many levels, and the economy too. We face a mental health crisis among young people following two years of unprecedented educational and social disruption. The highest inflation in most people’s lifetimes has people nearly panicked about the future, and that combines with strange and unpredictable shortages. And we wonder why….
Zen of Busy: Continual Letting Go When You’re Overwhelmed
These past two weeks have been hectic and exhausting for me. My wife’s father passed away, and I’ve been in non-stop planning, coordinating, cooking, cleaning, driving around mode. Yesterday was the funeral, and it was a long, tiring and busy day. Incredibly sad, but busy. In the midst of this busyness, I’ve been trying to remember…
What Is the Great Reset?
The following is adapted from a talk delivered at Hillsdale College on Nov. 7, 2021, during a Center for Constructive Alternatives conference on “The Great Reset.” Is the Great Reset a conspiracy theory imagining a vast left-wing plot to establish a totalitarian one-world government? No. Despite the fact that some people may have spun conspiracy…
