Those are the findings of a new report by the Institute for Social Policy and Understanding (ISPU), a nonpartisan organization created in 2002 that focuses on issues impacting […]
“Cocaine is a hell of a drug,” proclaimed Dave Chappelle’s Rick James, and the same is true of gambling. For proof, just ask Craig Carton, whose world collapsed in 2017 thanks to an addiction to blackjack and the ensuing fraud he perpetrated to pay off his debts. A counselor featured in Wild Card: The Downfall of a Radio Loudmouth equates playing cards for money with snorting […]
The wildfires engulfing the West Coast have become so dire in Oregon that state police have established a new type of emergency response: a mobile morgue. The state-run facility in Linn County, about two hours outside of Portland, will be operated by a 75-member regional response team that is searching incinerated properties for survivors and victims. While the wildfires have hit 10 states across the country, […]
US President Donald Trump has postured as a peacemaker and ender of “endless wars,” but one peace activist told Sputnik that Trump had greatly increased the risk of a major war around the globe by expanding US wars and undoing vital peace agreements – and his alternative on the November ballot isn’t much better.

In return for essentially co-signing […]
A woman who says she was Jeffrey Epstein’s first known victim claims in a new lawsuit that the multimillionaire sex offender introduced her to Donald Trump when she was 14, saying “This is a good one, right?” Trump gave no testimony, no deposition and provided no evidence to the police.

(Official White House Photo by Tia Dufour) Note: Sometimes when I write things, I cringe. I was talking with Russian author Andre Vltchek today about this. I have the benefit of an editorial position at VT and as a founding author at NEO. Still, everything typically written makes allowances for where it is published and this is no exception. Now when I reread it, something i […]
VT’s overall poor relationship with the Trump presidency has moved up a notch. The report Trump is referencing went, not unnoticed, but rather totally censored in the Western press, as has so much else until VT sought out the facts and published them. Now, for the second time, Trump has made sad and silly denials, this one filled with hyperbole and grandiose behavior, typical of a […]

But how did a tiny 15-year-old girl with astonishing technical potential become an issue of such dispute that she would go on to expose the unsavory side of the national figure skating team?
