Trump gave what was billed as a “Christmas speech” in rural Pennsylvania this past week that began with his “wishing each and every one of you a very merry Christmas, happy New Year, all of that stuff” and boasting that now, under his presidency, “everybody’s saying ‘merry Christmas’ again.” Then he claimed — contrary to […]

Well, more or less Cantonese, of course. There are a million recipes, but I try to capture the spirit of the dish, choosing what seems most authentic, and, of course, focusing on the ingredients available. My wife and I usually cook together, and she inspires my culinary endeavors. That was the case with Cantonese pork. […]

Real income growth is happening! Citizens are wondering who exactly is getting it. “Dear Russians”—especially those who regularly read or listen to Rosstat or Central Bank reports—know well that citizens’ real incomes have been growing at a breakneck pace for five years in a row.

As you know by now, I don’t like raising big problems without offering big potential solutions. The big problem I want to talk about today is that CEO pay has become utterly untethered from reality. When I was a young man in the 1960s and ’70s, CEOs typically made 20 to 30 times the pay […]

Such was the capitalism of the laissez-faire period, or today’s China, Russia and even Trumpism. And there are ideologically driven political systems. Nazism, Soviet Socialism and now Wokism that took over United States and EU. Since I did’t […]

Trump’s latest major victory, which the liberal media won’t report (or, if they do, they’ll gloss over): the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that Texas can use a new statewide district map that gives Republicans an advantage in congressional elections. A brief history of the issue: this summer, Texas Republicans, with the support of the […]

The new Monroe doctrine and a stick for Europe: the us is rewriting its national security strategy (NSS). A quiet revolution has taken place in the US national security landscape. The document, published yesterday on the White House website, is more than just another strategy, typically updated with each new presidential term. “American strategies since […]

Russian oligarchs are frantically trying to sell their remaining foreign assets. Even at a loss, they’re trying to sell them, not give them away. However, overall, things aren’t going so well. Back in 2024, large Russian companies were first faced with sanctions on the purchase of equipment and consumables for scheduled maintenance of their imported […]

The White House confirmed that hegseth ordered a second attack on the so-called “drug trafficker boat.” This order, previously reported by the media, sparked a congressional furor and accusations of even a “war crime.” This refers to an air strike (by an aircraft carrier air wing) on what the Trump administration calls a “narco-terrorist vessel” […]
