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


The IRS scandal spreads.

The IRS scandal spreads.

This article does an excellent job of connecting the dots, both in terms of who and when, based on what we now know, from solid evidence. The author’s conclusion:

We now have a sitting Democrat congressman, Elijah Cummings, a sitting Democrat senator, Sheldon Whitehouse, the Federal Elections Commission, the U.S. Department of Justice, and the Internal Revenue Service all implicated in the scandal. Flax’s involvement puts the abuse squarely into the IRS commissioner’s office. But it takes an entity above all of those agencies to coordinate their actions. That entity can only be the White House.

Flax worked for the head of the IRS at the time, proving once again that this harassment was not instigated by “low-level employees in Cincinnati”, as claimed by Lois Lerner.

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.

    “But it takes an entity above all of those agencies to coordinate their actions. That entity can only be the White House.”

    This ^^

    Until you have someone inside maneuvered into, for what ever reason, becoming willing to say that their orders came from a particular person or persons from the White House in the form of testimony / evidence, plausible deniability remains intact. They remain in the in-between sphere of politics and law.

    It’s like the mob, orders travel through so many intermediaries it will be impossible to track down who gave the original order. There won’t be a piece of paper with Obama’s or Jarrett’s signature.

    A good analogy, although the world of politics is a bit different. Politics is the interface between the need for governance which can be an amorphous gray area that can appear unjust to the observer (citizens) at the edges and law which is more of a clear line between black and white. This governance entity state of being was what the founders had to flesh out to determine how the system might successfully operate. I think they did the best job to date, brilliant work!

    The president, Congress and the Judicial branches of our government and the empowered people that inhabit those positions enjoy the “flexibility” of this amorphous state of being, the mob however does not and must live in the hard world of black and white law. Government exists before law in many ways due to its need to maneuver and operate but is constrained and limited by certain rules of operation as per the Constitution, the mob comes after the law and has no such flexibility and operates after law.

    Although both operate through force, fear, lies, coercion and intimidation and it is well understood that both by their nature are corrupt and corruptible.
