Speak what we feel, not what we ought to say.
–King Lear

Nearly all of us who claim to be Christians or Jews have allowed our children, for nearly two generations, to be seduced into a cult which mocks the God of Abraham. Nearly all of us who claim to be Americans, have allowed our children to be saturated with this cult’s trampling of American principles into the dirt.

If it is not already, it will soon be obvious to everyone that the new “line” of the “Globalists,” better described as the modern British financial empire, is that there is currently a fateful world struggle underway between the “autocracies” -- also called “authoritarian” systems--and the “democracies.”

by Bruce Director and Tony Papert -- What’s the difference between President Trump’s July 16, 2018 summit with Russia’s President Putin in Helsinki three years ago, and the upcoming, June 16 summit between Putin and fake president Joe Biden in Geneva?  The difference is a very small thing, a very tiny thing. Indeed, it’s far too small for some people--such as nearly all Congressional Republicans--to be able to see it at all. It’s just a tiny little thing called principle. The principle of sovereignty.

After leading his caucus last month to vote to keep Liz Cheney (R-WY) in the House leadership, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) voted last week to remove her–and quite rightly, and under President Trump’s orders. In the same way, in committee, he had supported Nancy Pelosi’s proposal for a phony bipartisan commission on the events of Jan. 6--but then turned around to oppose it when it came to the floor yesterday.

For the last four years, Schmidt has chaired a “high-level” government task-force, jointly with military Utopian Robert Work, which promises that if enough money is shifted away from weapons systems into “artificial intelligence (AI),” then some new, tricky way will surely be found to win future wars. 

As always, President Putin’s talk was that of a leader who familiarizes himself with all the conditions facing his citizens, and makes himself practically responsible for the welfare of the whole country and each of its citizens—as President Trump did, quite unlike any other twenty-first century American President.

As the elites push ever more insane curricula on our children, with Critical Race Theory and "gender change" near the top of the list, many Americans are becoming mobilized to address the crisis in education. But the fight against this evil must be driven by a greater understanding of what must replace it. As Tony Papert has stressed in previous classes, going back to the "good old days" of the 1950's or 1960's is not adequate.

Tony Papert delivers the third class in our series on classical education. What role does metaphor play in communicating an idea? What about contradiction? Ambiguity? Verse? Is there a method for learning the concepts and ideas upon which future human civilization depends?
