March 17, 2021 No doubt there are many people watching news reports and listening to various conferences and presentations from politicians who think that at last things are normalizing and we will again experience the freedom and safety we used to feel like working and living in America. Sure, there were always challenges- sometimes very grave- but there was also […]
February 2, 2021 WE NOW ARE IN THE MIDST OF VACCINE SOLUTIONS CREATED AND DISTRIBUTED AT WARP SPEED- AND THESE VACCINES WERE CLEARLY CHOSEN OVER OTHER ALTERNATIVES. HAVE WE, THE PUBLIC BEING COMPETENTLY INFORMED ABOUT THEIR NATURE AND THEIR ALTERNATIVES? CONSIDERING THESE VACCINES WERE RELEASED UNDER EMERGENCY USE AUTHORIZATION, ISN’T THIS THE LARGEST MEDICAL EXPERIMENT IN U.S. HISTORY? The Biden […]
January 18, 2021 MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR. DAY- MORE THAN EVER, A DAY TO REMEMBER!! I became a political activist in a school that nobody in their right mind would ever consider as a potential springboard for political activism. My college, St. John’s of Annapolis, was a long enduring academic experiment that featured four years of focusing on the classics […]
December 16, 2020 THE STOCK MARKET LOVES IT. SHOULDN’T WE? There is no doubt that the stock market loves the vaccination initiatives and has been reporting it with excitement and encouragement. And there is no doubt there are millions and millions of citizens who are breathing a deep sigh of relief that the Warp Speed vaccine has really achieved a […]
December 10, 2020 DO WE DARE CALL IT CONSPIRACY? After a few months, the vaccinations are being propelled forward. There are those- scientists, doctors, investigative journalists- who have spoken out- in articles and in videos. Many of these voices have been removed or censored in social media- all in defense of national and international policies that, like Wall Street, love […]
December 2, 2020 THE GUARDIANS OF UNREALITY If you can get a person to believe in you, if you can win their heart, it is very hard for them to escape the ties that bond them to that relationship no matter what they do. Why is that? I think that the authority of a parent is recognized because of love, […]
November 21st, 2020 FREEDOM OF SPEECH AND LYING I believe that citizens should be given a wide latitude to exercise their freedom of speech. But when freedom of speech is used mendaciously; that is, to lie, perhaps that latitude needs to be markedly decreased. Because when certain lies are dispensed people can be tangibly injured, materially or psychologically. I think […]
November 19th, 2020 VACCINES DRIVE THE STOCK MARKET UPWARD For those watching the stock market, there is no doubt that the vaccines that will supposedly save us from this surging pandemic, gets a lot of attention. As a headline from CNBC recently declared in an article from Patti Domm says: “Vaccine news unleashes new momentum in stock market as hunkered-down […]
October 25th, 2020 Massive changes are about to take place in the structure of our economy. Signs of dramatic changes are already being tried out by private and public businesses, possibly in preparation for this change. As ;you can see if you have been following my blog, many of these changes are not necessarily beneficial in any way for the […]
October 15]th, 2020 There are those who look at the horrific challenges our planet now faces- not primarily with fear and panic, but with an understanding that we are now experiencing a giant wake-up call. In America, our citizens for some time, have been slumbering perhaps because they know there’s something out there- but they didn’t want to do anything […]
October 12th, 2020 We Beg to Differ, a blog presenting alternative media’s view of Mainstream Narratives, basically presents links, most often to whole videos and articles, from Mainstream Media and Alternative Media to contrast their views. If one wonders what alternative media means, it is media developed privately by independent producers. The phrase, “Alternative Media” does not mean any one […]
September 26th, 2020 It is hard to imagine that level of acceptance that Americans have had for losing millions of jobs and having something like half of the small businesses in the United States go under. The results of the limitless printing of money by the Central Banks, after the inevitable effects on our currency, will hyper-intensify our comeuppance for […]
September 9th, 2020 UPDATED With the dates of the vaccine growing closer and closer, many of our colleagues are breathing a sigh of relief. Will Donald Trump actually be able to present a perfectly, safe, effective vaccine from a company that is launching a brand new type of vaccination? The vaccine appears to involve an innovative form of genetic engineering […]
June 30th, 2020 With the so-called spikes in various U.S. states with the virus, lockdown components are being restored here and there. With the United States and other nations experiencing the beginning of the immense dangers faced by the majority of their populations because of businesses and jobs being loss, the huge credit backlashes facing many consumers, the lack of […]
June 20th, 2020 There can be many takes on what I am about to say- that despite the closing down of our economy, the vital concerns about our health, the discomforting dance steps of the Federal Reserve- things seem rather bleak but somewhat hopeful. But here’s my message: for many of you out there: they might be much bleaker than […]
June 15th, 2020 I think, among all those things we need to look at, are matters related to the opening of our economy. Much of the quarantine and its various restrictions are based on certain alleged scientific understandings of its effect and we should measure the dangers of keeping the economy closed versus the alleged dangers of the virus spiking […]
June 7th, 2020 When I first developed this We Beg to Differ, it was because I had found some very serious disconnects between mainstream media and alternative media narratives. Part of it was because some issues or necessary discussion was being downsized or cut out altogether by mainstream media. As an example, with all our debate on healthcare systems, I […]
June 5th, 2020 We live in a connected universe. Yes, we can compartmentalize areas of our life and our world- for the sake of focus and accomplishment. But we should not forget the Big Picture- especially now when there are so many challenges. We cannot and should not totally separate the amazing downturn of our economy, including the trillion dollar […]
June 3rd, 2020 Today, we shall look at some alternative voices regarding the Covid-19 pandemic. As far as I am concerned, no voice, mainstream or alternative is sacred- and some important things are said, from time to time, in both venues. But the reality is that a great majority of people are taking their news from mainstream and alternative news […]
June 2nd, 2020 In this issue, we look at some of the issues arising from George Floyd’s murder. Although there has been outrageous police brutality and injustice towards blacks, not all police officers have been culpable- but the system and its administrators have been entirely culpable. Still, I want to say that despite that, I believe that the majority of […]
May 31, 2020 It is hard to believe- after so many police infractions and fatalities, we wouldn’t have learned better. Now we have paid the price- multiple rioting throughout our cities, Just as, for some of us, the lockdowns were diminishing, now we have curfews to keep us inside as well. Regardless of our culpability, we- and our businesses and […]
May 29, 2020 Obviously, there is some concern with the protests in Minneapolis. Although the fires and the looting were the result of the death off George Floyd, a civilian, protests continue throughout the country- and, for that matter around the world, in regards to the Lockdown. As we have pursued the various claims of alternative media, there are many […]
May 28, 2020 I think the most important thing intelligent business people can do is really scrutinize what is happening with the pandemic and the Central Banks- because, although mainstream media is somewhat critical at times, it nowhere approaches some of the findings presented by medical doctors, scientists, financial analysts, serious talk show hosts and commentators in alternative media. There […]
May 23, 2020 Today we look at the new Moderna vaccine and analyze its progress according to certain scientists and doctors. We also look at some concerns for a vaccine that is by-passing animal trials and whose use is being intentionally accelerated. There are concerns about the possibility of a mandatory vaccine and it utilizing RNA to actually permanently change […]
May 22, 2020 Today, we look at the debate spiraling throughout our country and the rest of the world on rights of citizens vs. the need to control Covid-19 through quarantine and other restrictive practices . To try and figure out what has happened to us, we continue to look at the science from the point of view of various […]
May 20, 2020 Today we focus on Constitutional issues and the role of law enforcement in the opening of the U.S. economy. We report on the reactions of some law enforcement officers on their views. This interview shows, as indicated by other videos we present today, the absolute commitment that many of our police man have towards the Oath of […]
May 17, 2020 The greatest danger we now face is avoid studying and analyzing events, professional commentary, articles and claims regarding the lockdown. It is very clear that our economy is very challenged by loss of jobs, decline of manufacturing, retail sales, etc.- but it is also clear that the stock market, backed by the Federal Reserve and the Administration, […]
May 15, 2020 In this issue, we will discuss some of the upcoming challenges presented by lockdown and those who are now raising their voices to challenge the wisdom of creating a stranglehold on people’s wages and small business. Ron Paul discusses the role of Fed in the current crisis and the Last American Vagabond presents a very detailed look […]

MAY 7TH, 2020 – THERE IS NOW A GROWING, PAINFUL DIVISION GROWING BETWEEN THOSE WHO WANT TO GO BACK TO WORK AND THOSE WHO FEAR FOR THEIR LIVES IF THEY GIVE UP THE QUARANTINE.

MARCH 30TH, 2020 #19 AS THE CORONA VIRUS CONTINUES TO DISRUPT AND DESTROY OUR ECONOMY, THERE HAS BEEN A GREAT DEAL OF DISSATISFACTION INTERNALLY ABOUT THE AMERICAN RESPONSE. IF ONE WERE TO LOOK OBJECTIVELY AT ALL POINTS OF VIEW REGARDING OUR ECONOMY AND VIRUS AND ACCEPT THEM AT ALL AS TRUE, THIS MIGHT BE THE MOST MASSIVE ATTACK OF COLLECTIVE […]

January 19th, 2019 #13 HAVE WE NO SENSE OF JUSTICE? Are we actually debating whether the upcoming Senate trial should have witnesses and documents that have been withheld intentionally by the White House? Will this world-wide protest against energy fuels and systems that cause the acceleration of climate change continue to grow? Should we feel nervous about our economy? Greg […]
January 7th, 2019 #12 ARE WE AT WAR? Iran has just attacked multiple U. S. missile bases in Iraq, Is it now too late too stop the multiple consequences of this ill-conceived assassination Qassem Soleimani, Commander of the Quds Force and Abu Mahdi al-Muhandi, deputy commander of the Iraqi PMF?

December 24th, 2019 #11 Will there be an Evangelical pushback against Trump? HAS CHRISTIANITY TODAY LIT A FUSE FOR EVANGELICALS? Mark Galli, Editor-in-Chief of Christianity Today, a leading mainstream Evangelical magazine, recently wrote and article called, “Trump Should be Removed from Office.” Since a great part of Trump’s supporters are currently Evangelicals, a rebellion against Trump could have significant impact. […]
December 20th, 2019 #10 TULSI GABBARD VOTES“PRESENT” ON IMPEACHMENT Tulsi, who I admire in many ways, voted “Present” on impeachment. Here is what she said: Stand with Tulsi: Politics should not be a zero-sum game In certain ways, I thinks she blends a practical knowledge of America with an idealistic and valid understanding of its purpose as defined in the […]
December 5th, 2019 #9 From Johnny Blue Star, Editor-in-Chief, WE BEG TO DIFFER. AMERICAN VALUES AND OUR FOREIGN POLICY AGENDA We are now living in an environment where much of the valuable rhetoric and insights of our Founding Fathers which paved the way for the advance of our democracy is now hijacked by those in government and media who want […]
November 21st, 2019 #8 From Johnny Blue Star, Editor-in-Chief, WE BEG TO DIFFER. OUR MISSION Although we, in general, aim to present certain alternative news perspectives to contrast with mainstream narratives in text and print, we do not in any way wish to totally invalidate either perspective. Certainly, our major news and commentary outlets are flawed in many ways, but […]
November 2nd, 2019 #7 From Johnny Blue Star, Editor-in-Chief, WE BEG TO DIFFER. We open today’s newsletter with a message from the distant past, a speech that should have been known and retained since it was first made, a gift by President Eisenhower to the real citizens of the true American Republic. Considering the events- or even more potently- the […]
October 31th, 2019 #6 From Johnny Blue Star, Editor-in-Chief, WE BEG TO DIFFER. We have and will continue to report on the atrocities met out in English courts and prison against Julian Assange- and the unfair imprisonment of Chelsea Manning in the United States. Recently, there is another deeply troubling event involving an American investigative journalist, Max Blumenthal The following […]
October 26th, 2019 #5 From Johnny Blue Star, Editor-in-Chief, WE BEG TO DIFFER. THE IMPRISONMENT OF JULIAN ASSANGE SYMBOLIZES ALL THAT WRONG WITH THE STATE OF OUR NATION & THE REST OF THE WORLD The key to free nations choosing authoritarian government can be a relatively slow slide into self-deception and subsequent wrong choices. Initially, when a politician comes onto […]
October 14th, 2019 #4 From Johnny Blue Star, New Galaxy Enterprises…. Some would say this new initiative of Trump to pull our troops back from Syria, leaving our allies, the Kurds, to face the wrath of the Turkey military, is not only a betrayal of our allies but also a nice war-like distraction from the impeachment query that continues to […]
