CRASH!
Early last June here’s how I led off a special three-part Intelligence Report series to subscribers: “In recent issues my goal has been to work especially hard at providing you intelligence that will keep you safe and dividend-centric during what I consider the inevitable coming meltdown.” Meltdown? Absolutely baked in to the cake as I […]
Video: The Retirement Gamble
You, no doubt, have questions about your retirement, especially with the recent market declines. I was speaking with a client yesterday and he told me that over the weekend he watched the documentary The Retirement Gamble. He said his wife recorded it and asked him if he wanted to watch it with her. And later that […]
Hillary—Trustworthy and Honest?
According to Tim Constantine of The Washington Times, only 30% of white women think Hillary is trustworthy and honest. Yes, she can raise money, but she can’t seem to raise a crowd. While Bernie Sanders is drawing thousands to hear him speak, Hillary can’t seem to draw more than six to eight handpicked souls. Ms. […]

Scholarly studies support the idea that many federal activities are […]
The EPA Debacle
After the catastrophic accident that allowed millions of gallons of toxic wastewater to befoul the Animas River in Colorado, the serious question is why was the Environmental Protection Agency managing this waste in the first place? Rhett Larson, associate professor of law at Arizona State University, writes in the WSJ that mining companies that have […]
I Did Not Send or Receive Classified Material
In Las Vegas last Tuesday, a reporter grilled Hillary Clinton on whether she had wiped her email server clean. She contemptuously responded, “What? Like with a cloth or something?”
Men with Guns
Cato Institute’s Dan Mitchell writes here about Bernie Sanders and about Europe being a roll model for the United States. Is greed and the lust for money what’s wrong with the United States? Bernie Sanders, Vermont’s pseudo-socialist senator, thinks that America can learn from Europe. He’s right. But he’s also wrong. That’s because he thinks […]
