Thomas Sankara - African Leader
In the annals of history, the name Thomas Sankara shines as a beacon of visionary leadership and unwavering dedication to transformative change. Born on December 21, 1949, this Burkinabé military captain, Marxist revolutionary, and pan-Africanist theorist left an indelible mark during his presidency from 1983 to 1987. Often hailed as "Africa's Che Guevara," Sankara's accomplishments over a mere four years are a testament to his commitment to social equity, self-reliance, and a brighter future for Burkina Faso.

President Decrees America is the Most Communist National on Earth
April 11th (Alabaster, AL) – This past Friday, the President of the United States sat down with the largest socialist periodical in America—one that we will refrain from naming in these prestigious pages in order not to lend them any credence and legitimacy. As established during the third day of this administration, the President brought an end to the routine of daily press briefings and regular access to the White House and replaced them with a free-for-all end-of-week one-on-one bonanza. While the leader of the free world was more than happy to spend time with socialists, I would be remiss if I did not point out that the President has still not sat down with yours truly.

For Women's History Month, President Blasts the Rest of the World
March 11th (Santa Rosa, CA) – March is Women’s History Month, which started right here in Santa Rosa as just a single week in 1978. By 1980, the week became recognized at the federal level before expanding to the whole month in 1987. It was a great surprise and honor, then, that the recently installed President of the United States requested to give a speech before the Commission on the Status of Women—which founded and administered the original celebratory week—to commemorate this year’s observances.

The Emergence of a Multipolar World
In the dynamic landscape of global politics, the 21st century has witnessed a transformative shift towards a multipolar world. Traditionally, the world order was dominated by a bipolar structure, with the United States and the Soviet Union as the primary superpowers during the Cold War. However, the collapse of the Soviet Union in the early 1990s marked the end of a bipolar system, giving rise to a unipolar world led by the United States. This unipolar moment was characterized by American hegemony, where the U.S. held unprecedented influence over global affairs.

Two Birds, One Stone
Before I begin this article, I must emphasize a few things. One, this is not a defense, nor condemnation of the actions these sailors have taken. Two, I in no way have any knowledge of their cases beyond what is publicly available. Three, this article is not intended to be your sole source of information on this case. It is but a start for more critical thinking about these cases, and others like it.

REVOLUTIONIZED WARFARE
The escalating military capabilities of the U.S. and its allies surrounding Taiwan have made a successful Chinese invasion and occupation of the self-ruled island a challenging endeavor. However, experts now warn that China might resort to a new tactic known as "cognitive warfare" as its People's Liberation Army (PLA) increasingly focuses on "intelligent warfare" enabled by artificial intelligence (AI) systems and concepts.

President Wants to Downsize Military, Legalize Drugs and Prostitution
February 27th (Portland, OR) – During a rare first-year State of the Union address, the President of the United States proposed a number of new, expanded, and reallocated programs. This included creating considerable controls over medical billing; investing in research that may lead to lowering the death rate related to heart disease; building massive desalination plants and filling the deserts with water; deploying more renewable and nuclear energy capabilities (along with carbon sequestration); constructing an elevator to space; and starting a two-year required national service for 18-year-olds. Of course, all of those high ideals brought up one question...

They're Here
Whether you believe as most do, that there is other life in the universe, or you aren't a believer in extraterrestrial life, nothing changes what happened this week. Not just one, but three former military officials testified in Congress on Wednesday, July 26, that the government knows more about Unidentified Aerial Phenomena than they were telling us.
