Genesis cover

On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.

 

The print edition can be purchased at Amazon. from any other book seller, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.


The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
 

"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News


DOJ attorney once worked under Lois Lerner at IRS

Working for the Democratic Party: The attorney in the Justice Department representing the IRS directly participated in the harassment of conservatives when he worked under Lois Lerner at the IRS from 2008 to 2010.

The article calls this a conflict of interest. I instead see it as a continuing and unified effort by the Obama administration and all levels of the federal bureaucracy to use the power of the federal government to squelch any opposition to the Democratic Party.

The support of my readers through the years has given me the freedom and ability to analyze objectively the ongoing renaissance in space, as well as the cultural changes -- for good or ill -- that are happening across America. Four years ago, just before the 2020 election I wrote that Joe Biden's mental health was suspect. Only in this year has the propaganda mainstream media decided to recognize that basic fact.

 

Fourteen years ago I wrote that SLS and Orion were a bad ideas, a waste of money, would be years behind schedule, and better replaced by commercial private enterprise. Even today NASA and Congress refuse to recognize this reality.

 

In 2020 when the world panicked over COVID I wrote that the panic was unnecessary, that the virus was apparently simply a variation of the flu, that masks were not simply pointless but if worn incorrectly were a health threat, that the lockdowns were a disaster and did nothing to stop the spread of COVID. Only in the past year have some of our so-called experts in the health field have begun to recognize these facts.

 

Your help allows me to do this kind of intelligent analysis. I take no advertising or sponsors, so my reporting isn't influenced by donations by established space or drug companies. Instead, I rely entirely on donations and subscriptions from my readers, which gives me the freedom to write what I think, unencumbered by outside influences.

    Pretty effective if you can get away with it. The question remains, will they get away with it? Put enough time between you and a questionable action that you have participated in and it does not matter, in Washington anyway.

    I post this document again as a demonstration of if you are able to put enough time between you and an action taken within the government that remains the reality that people understand to be true. How many people here are aware of this document?

    Its hard to argue with mathematics and physics, even within the government, sometimes.

    Why?

    The human mind creates reality that it is comfortable with that lies within its comfortable moral context and perceptions and there are people and movements that understand that and provide that comfortable moral reality for you. The people and agendas can be of the conspiratorial nature or of the decision of the moment nature, the opportune manipulation of the reality narrative. We all do it to some degree here and there, this is just next level and based in power capitol P.

    Why? Because everything (everything) really boils down to power, the acquiring of power, the control of power and the retention of power. Some people believe that they understand “global warming” and what drives or does not drive it, or whether it exists at all. They base this “understanding” on their intuitive gathering of information, mostly from media and what they understand to be “normal” or abnormal and they make their judgments based on their subjective perspective and call that “science” or “reality”. Or in this case with Kennedy, president Ford makes a material adjustment to the facts surrounding the assassination because the country “needed to be at peace”. The actual facts of the placement of the bullet hole indicates a trajectory inconsistent with the identified shooter and other connecting facts. Why else would he do such a thing? Reality conflicts with the more desired reality.

    Do people desire peace of mind or do they desire the cold hard facts? Which do you prefer? I suspect a combination of the two. Does that answer your question?

    To my point, I am listening to a liberal radio talk show and what comment did the host just make related to the beautiful weather we have been having? The hosts comment leading into the weather segment of the show? “Don’t stop believing in Global Warming just because of all this nice weather”.

    Peoples intuitive impression, or their emotional response to the actual weather they are experiencing is counter to the narrative that has and is being put forward by the media and so the narrative becomes at risk. Which really has nothing to do with whether there is global warming or not but goes only to the narrative that has been decided upon and its function, and what is that function? The continued retention of control of power. IMO anyway.

    The U.S. may not be a major producer of Bananas, but with the release of the latest info on the IRS scandal, we’ve become a Banana Republic…
