By Daniel Brouse “By all accounts, including abundant video evidence, there were no issues at the demonstration until Quakertown police arrived and incited violence.” “Residents are demanding the resignation of Quakertown’s police chief after students were ‘choked’ and ‘tackled’ during an anti-ICE protest.” My Original Report: Scott McElree is the only town manager in Bucks […]

Trump, Chris Wright, Rob Bradley Jr., the CO2 Coalition, Epstein Elite, and Crimes Against Humanity
Overview Recent court rulings have raised significant questions about the formation and operation of a Department of Energy (DOE) advisory body informally referred to as the “Climate Working Group.” A U.S. District Court found that the group violated the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA), a law requiring transparency, balanced representation, and public accountability for federal […]
Supreme Court Reins in Presidential Tariff Power
What to Know About Learning Resources, Inc. v. Trump By Daniel BrouseFebruary 21, 2026 On February 20, 2026, the Supreme Court ruled 6–3 in Learning Resources, Inc. v. Trump (consolidated with V.O.S. Selections v. United States) that the President cannot use the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to impose unilateral tariffs. The Court held […]
Climate Change, Personal Health, and Personal Wealth
Risk Exposure in an Era of Accelerating Climate Instability Daniel BrouseFebruary 21, 2026 Introduction: Climate Risk Is Personal Climate change is often discussed in abstract global terms — temperature targets, emissions pathways, distant timelines. But the impacts are not abstract. They are immediate, measurable, and increasingly personal. Climate change is already affecting your health, your […]
Bounded but Accelerating: Nonlinear Climate Dynamics and the Real Risk Landscape of the 21st Century
By Daniel Brouse and Sidd MukherjeeFebruary 17, 2026 Executive Summary Human extinction from climate change in the next century is unlikely based on current mainstream physical science. However, the rate of climate system acceleration is deeply concerning. The risk facing humanity is not runaway “Venus-style” physics. The risk is rapid nonlinear acceleration within thermodynamic bounds […]
The Domino Effect: Cascading Climate Tipping Points and Nonlinear Acceleration
Daniel Brouse and Sidd MukherjeeFebruary 12, 2026 Abstract Since the 1990s, we have advanced what we termed the Non-Linear Acceleration Hypothesis — the proposition that climate change impacts do not progress linearly, but instead accelerate over time as interacting physical processes amplify one another. Early analysis suggested an approximate doubling time of major climate impacts […]
Systemic Infrastructure Risk in a Nonlinear Climate: Economic and Public Safety Implications for the United States
Daniel Brouse and Sidd MukherjeeFebruary 8, 2026 Abstract One of the largest and fastest-growing economic costs of climate change in the United States is infrastructure degradation and failure. Intensifying extreme weather events — including flooding, windstorms, heat waves, and heavy precipitation — are stressing systems that were designed for a more stable 20th-century climate. Because […]
Demographics, Automation, and the Fragility of Growth Capitalism
By Daniel Brouse Modern capitalism, particularly in its post–World War II form, has depended on growth — growth in productivity, growth in consumption, and critically, growth in population. Programs such as Social Security and Medicare are not pre-funded savings accounts; they are transfer systems that rely on a sufficiently large base of current workers paying […]
Judge Rules Trump’s Secret Climate Panel Unlawful: A Crucial Win for Science and Justice
The Trump administration’s covert effort to undermine climate science has been dealt a significant legal blow. A federal judge ruled that the secretive “Climate Working Group,” convened by the U.S. Department of Energy to produce a report minimizing global warming risks, violated federal law. This report was central to attempts by the Trump administration to […]
State Capitalism in America? Price Controls, Golden Shares, and the Reordering of U.S. Markets
Trump has repeatedly promised to dismantle the existing global economic order. Ironically, many of the policies advanced under that banner do not represent a return to free-market capitalism — they signal a shift toward a more state-directed economic model. Globally, the administration has escalated trade conflicts, withdrawn from negotiated trade frameworks, and imposed historically high […]
