The United States Department of Energy has created a list of “words to avoid,” advancing the censorship narrative. The words “climate change” and “green” are listed as banned, as ruler Donald Trump declared the concept “the greatest con job” during his recent United Nations speech. According to a report by Politico, other words such as “green,” “emissions,” and “decarbonization” were also suggested to be avoided. The outlet cited an email sent to the department’s Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy just days after President Donald Trump denounced the concept of climate change during his UN General Assembly speech.

Protecting What Makes America Different The United States is unique because our Constitution enshrines not just the freedom to live, but the freedom to speak, believe, publish, and defend ourselves. The First and Second Amendments are not window dressing; they are the backbone of liberty. Other nations promise “rights” in glossy documents, but those promises often vanish when tested. In America, those rights are written in ink that binds not just governments but generations. That difference explains why millions fight to come here — because freedom here is not a privilege granted by rulers; it is a birthright. Yet somewhere…

This article was originally published by Jimmy Alfonso Licon at The Mises Institute. The assassination of Charlie Kirk is a tragedy on several levels. It robs his family and friends of the time they would otherwise have had with Charlie, especially his young children and wife. It is a tragedy for Charlie—his life was cut prematurely short. And it is a tragic signal that the wrong words spoken, even in a liberal democracy, can get you killed. As an academic and public intellectual, I find that chilling. It is also, unsettlingly, a case study in how democratic incentives can corrode political…
They tell you Tylenol (acetaminophen) is “safe enough” — even for pregnant women. But recent headlines, studies, and lawsuits suggest that it may not be as harmless as we’ve been led to believe. And now, more than ever, you need backup options that don’t require a pharmacy or doctor’s permission. Why People Are Doubting Tylenol Now A major 2025 review suggests that prenatal acetaminophen exposure may increase risks for neurodevelopmental disorders like autism and ADHD. (Source) The FDA is moving to change labels on acetaminophen to reflect possible associations with neurological disorders. (Source) ACOG and other medical groups still say…
In the year 2025 I experienced two massive water outages in Richmond Virginia, watched multiple parts of the nation suffer under flood waters, and conducted a 12-mile hike on the Appalachian Trail, in the dark of night, while rationing water. Water has worked its way further up my list of needs in a survival situation. In fact, your access to clean water and ways of cleaning water should be a top priority when it comes to survival. We have also been doing a share of fasting in our community and found that going 3 days without food is not nearly…
Podcast: Play in new window | DownloadImagine this: The power’s out. Shelves are empty. The internet is down. And suddenly, the things you quietly set aside—food, fuel, gear, cash—start looking like solutions to everyone else’s problems. Those solutions? They’re exactly what others will notice—and try to grab first. They’re the first target in any crisis. In a true crisis, what you have can make you a target—by anyone. Legal authority already exists to seize what you have or redirect what you need. And if the government doesn’t come for it, desperate people will. Every online order, every debit card swipe—those…
A group of gun-rights organizations is calling some big banks onto the carpet for their systemic history of debanking and otherwise discriminating against companies in the firearms industry. According to a report at Foxbusiness.com, the Second Amendment groups are accusing some financial institutions of “revisionist history” in their attempts to whitewash past discrimination against gun and ammo manufacturers and retailers.

This article was originally published by Tyler Durden at ZeroHedge. On the back of a 45% surge in the price of gold this year, the US Treasury’s hoard of the barbarous relic has surpassed $1 trillion in value for the first time in history. That is more than 90 times what’s stated on the government’s balance sheet and is reigniting speculation that Treasury Secretary Bessent could revalue (mark to market) the massive pile of precious metal Unlike most countries, the US’s gold is held by the government directly, rather than the central bank. The Fed instead holds gold certificates corresponding to the value…
