The fix is in. Donald Trump has been forced out of office through election fraud. The Republicans have abandoned Trump, the one man who injected life, vitality and hope into the party. Joe Biden has taken the Oval Office. The Democrats control every arm of the Federal government. Big Tech is cracking down on everyone […]
Cloud Token: Money Machine or Scamcoin?
Several weeks ago, an acquaintance invited me and my wife for a discussion. He wanted to sit down with us to talk about how we could ‘achieve financial freedom’. We had met him at a seminar we had attended in July, and we were all seeking ways to expand our income. Thinking it was a […]

Gatekeepers Make Creators Fragile
Creators and artists of all persuasions cannot count on gatekeepers. Many publishers and corporate sponsors do not have the creators’ interests in mind, only their own.
