The twenty-one year emergency

You all know what today is. You all remember where you were, 21 years ago today. Think about that span of time carefully. If your child was born in that year, that same child would already have passed the ages of maturity for driving, voting, and drinking in the...

The name of Graham Phillips probably will not be familiar to you, unless you follow his work on Telegram. I routinely forward his reportage from the LDNR territories in my Telegram chat channel, as I think he does an excellent job of providing the other side of the...
