Few chords possess the ability to encapsulate an entire genre and ethos. Yet, the power chord, with its primal simplicity, stands as a testament to the enduring essence of punk and rock music. Across generations, musicians have wielded this indispensable tool, shaping and propelling the instinctual force that drives the very heart of musical expression. The origins of the power chord can be traced back to the early days of rock and roll, where guitarists sought to create a louder, more aggressive sound. By simplifying traditional chord structures and focusing on the root note and fifth, musicians discovered a formula...

A congressman with links to ‘The Squad’ who proudly voted to defund Austin police has been slammed after he requested enhanced patrols outside his home in the Texas city. Democrat Rep. Greg Casar was a prominent voice in the defunding of the Austin Police Department as a member of the city council in 2020 following the Black Lives Matter movement. Last week he also criticized the force for alleged racist practices. Now, he has submitted a request through the United States Capitol Police in Washington, DC, for a police patrol at his house - the request was forwarded to Austin...

There have been at least 19 separate instances in which airplanes nearly smashed into one another in the first 10 months of the year, according to a shocking report. The staggering number of near-misses between January and October marks a dramatic increase in narrowly averted airline crashes — the most since 2016, according to Federal Aviation Administration data viewed by the Wall Street Journal. The total number for the year is not yet known, but is expected to continue to climb.

Halfway down a Bushwick side street, in the back of an artisanal doughnut shop and through a photobooth, this rhino-themed restaurant has quietly been slinging drinks and bites since October. Ra-Ra Rhino, the latest addition to the city’s hidden watering hole scene, offers a sleek, Tiki-influenced back room with an eccentric menu of drinks and eats, as well as a smoke-blowing rhino head. The inspiration for the new speakeasy came when bar owner Michael Lombardozzi was searching for a doughnut shop in Bushwick during the coronavirus pandemic. “I discovered there aren’t any,” Lombardozzi said. So he decided to open Ra-Ra...

As we discussed yesterday, state and local officials have come up with a new plan to revive the city of Portland. One of the top items on their agenda is to reign in open-air drug use, something the voters of Oregon decriminalized back in 2020. But we may have a ways to go before Portland can be rescued from the poor decision making of its own elected officials, at least we do if this story is any guide. Portland-area law enforcement officials made one of the biggest fentanyl busts in state history last Thursday. At the time it seemed like...

I have come to believe that the US is backing the wrong side in the Ukrainian invasion, and it is not an accident. Trump and Putin were the two most powerful nationalistic leaders in the world. They have zero interest in the Great Rest or the New World Order. They are all about their own countries--as they should be. They were chosen to lead their respective country--not as governors for some world leader we may or may not know about (Deep State). Trump was "defeated" in 2020 at the polls and dismissed from leadership. We all know what happened with...

Many argue that communism will never be possible because of "human nature". The essence of this false argument is the belief that a communist society would consist of an all-powerful central government that would tell everybody what to do--and would therefore undermine the creative initiative of individuals and the search for happiness. • This argument is based on two false assumptions: (1) It assumes that a communist society will look like the former Soviet Union, or the current China, North Korea, etc (ie: corrupt police states with a feudal-style ruling class) (2) It assumes that people will only work in...
