There’s a Bill Rice, Jr. article for that
As it turns out, I’m the editor of this operation. Here are some “editor’s picks” some of my new readers might have missed …
As I now have many new subscribers, it occurs to me some readers might not have read my earlier stories.
For just about every Covid (or geopolitical) topic, I don’t have an “app for that” … but, by now, I’ve probably written story that deals with that topic.
Anyway, I decided to go back into the archives and list a few stories that deal with different subjects that come up on message boards. Here’s a summary of my selections:
A few people have asked me, “Why did you start a Substack? Or: “Who the heck are you?” This is my answer.
Here’s why I’m a huge fan of Substack and why I think the world would be in even deeper doo doo absent this vital platform for independent writers.
Here’s why I think RFK, Jr. has an uphill battle to win the presidency … even if his Democratic rival, our president, does not have full use of his brain.
Here’s why I think President Biden will probably win. I know it sounds preposterous to think this … which is why I think this is likely a lock.
Here’s why I think those guilty of committing crimes against humanity will never face justice.
And here’s another reason - all the institutions that should be searching for the truth are now gung-ho about concealing the truth. (So we’ve got this going for us as a nation.)
Not to bring anyone down, but here’s why I battle depression.
And here’s another reason: Our world is being “led” by people who are either obtuse or who fall somewhere on the psychopath spectrum.
But hope lives. Here’s why I think “our side” will win in the end.
We’re all looking for solutions …
Lots of great citizens are interested in possible “solutions.” One solution might come from our faith-based community … if the leaders of this community would educate the parishioners in their pews that what’s really being waged is a battle of “good vs. evil.”
It might be a long-shot, but there are strategies we can employ that might flip people to our way of thinking.
It would also help if our so-called “watchdog” press wasn’t completely captured. If we had some Woodward and Bernstein’s actually digging into Covid stories that might help … but we don’t.
Another reason “journalists” aren’t riding to the rescue is … they’re all getting pink slips.
And yet another reason is that almost all of the corporate journalists are brazen hypocrites. Another reason I started my Substack was to call out people like this phony.
Speaking of journalism, here’s why the movie “Three Days of the Condor” has sad-but-true lessons for all of us. So does “Star Wars,” “Casablanca,” “The Godfather” and “The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance.”
For what it’s worth, here’s my “message in a bottle idea” I think might help save the world.
Facebook could have saved millions of lives or prevented unnecessary misery on a global scale if it had not censored people who were trying to tell us the truth.
But I owe Facebook a big thank you due to “The Law of Opposite Effects.” This maxim explains how my writing went from reaching a couple hundred people to more than a half a million people.
Nor do I think I’m going to run out of topics if and when everyone forgets about Covid. Here’s why I think this.
For the record, here’s why and how I think all the Covid madness actually happened. This article must have resonated with readers because it set records for “likes” and comments.
But this is the type article I need to write more of. It tells us why the vaccine issue actually matters … Because the shots are killing fathers with teenage sons … and nobody who matters in our government seems to care. But some families are “fighting back.”
PREDICTION: No science department at any SEC college will ever produce a study debunking Pfizer’s “safe and effective vaccine.” This world-exclusive article explains why I am confident making this prediction.
If you want to know why I think “early spread” happened, you can read this article.
If you want to know how many Americans I think had already been infected by the time we had the lockdowns to “slow” or “stop” virus spread, you can read this article.
Some people have asked me, “Why does early spread even matter?” Here’s my answer.”
Personally, I never understood why everyone was so terrified of this virus in the first place. I spent weeks researching the real health risks to every-day citizens. This is what I learned.
If you want to know why or how so many people could accept ridiculous claims with little if any credible support, you need to understand how most people will always support “the current thing.”
I’m a big believer in the power of The Narrative. This article tells us how bogus narratives are protected … by damn near everyone.
If you happen to think our current science and medicine establishment will NOT find a cure for cancer (or if you are interested in hot-dog-eating competitions), you might be interested in this article which argues the world needs more outside-the-box thinkers.
If you think rampant inflation will end up harming more families than Covid, this story might be of interest.
One way dissenting voices have been cancelled from participating in any Internet “debates” is to be labeled a “science denier” or “election denier” or “anti-vaxxer” or a “dangerous extremist.” The worst slander of all is to call someone a Q-Anon supporter. This article got my lowest number of reads, “likes” and comments … probably because I mentioned the Q word.
I hop-scotched across more taboo territory when I opined that it was the medical protocols and “iatrogenic” reasons that probably explain most of the alleged Covid deaths.
If you want to know why my Substack newsletter didn’t die a quick death, I think it’s because I published this book review on “The Real Anthony Fauci” that was picked up by Citizen Free Press and got me a quick 20,000 readers.
If you want to know how any “narrative” is established, you have to understand the importance of language. In one of my early Substack articles, I tried to give a few examples from our “New Normal” dictionary.
A few selections for your upcoming trip to the beach …
The above is fairly heavy reading. Since we are heading into beach season, I’ll also mention a few possible selections on “the lighter side” of my Substack.
My young readers might like my effort at penning children’s adventure stories. I wrote one in the Huck Finn tradition; the protagonist is my son, Pickle Jack McCoy.
Serious students of cerebral and important literature would surely be interested in my analysis of “The Catcher in the Rye.” It features several good sentences about “phonies.”
In one article, I went for The Guinness Book of World Records on “Asides in One Column” (I got it!)
And I got so tired of reading new names for Covid that I came up with 100 flavors of Covid that nobody will ever use.
Finally, several critics have told me I should change careers and I told them I am thinking about it.
***
The above is just a partial list of articles I’ve written in the last seven months. (Just writing these summaries made me want to go to the fridge and get some Gatorade).
But I’m glad I wrote every one of them. Now they can live forever on the Internet … or as long as Substack can hang in there, which I hope is a very long time.
I am not joking when I tell my readers - my new ones or my 7-month long-timers - that I can’t thank you enough for subscribing and reading a few of these articles.
I should have included this one:
"In Praise of Reader Comments" - where I note that our Rulers hate them.

I added this one after I sent out my email:
PREDICTION: No science department at any SEC college will ever produce a study debunking Pfizer’s “safe and effective vaccine.” This world-exclusive article explains why I am confident making this prediction.

As far as I know, I am the only journalist in America who wrote about this.
