The Omaha Bugle-Global News Network

Send us Fan Mail Noted Ukraine boosters Adam and Jeff turn their attention back to the ongoing war in the Ukraine.  Jeff suggests that Russia's image as a military colossus has taken an enormous hit due to it having become bogged down in a war of attrition in the Ukraine over the past two years.  Although Russia managed to seize about 20% of Ukraine's territory in the early weeks of the...

Send us Fan Mail Both Adam and Jeff are surprised that President Biden chose to celebrate America's newest heartwarming holiday--transgender visibility day--on Easter Sunday.  Even though Hallmark has not yet issued a set of holiday cards to commemorate transgender visibility day, Adam and Jeff do not feel that this holiday will enjoy the enduring popularity of  Christian holidays such as Eas...

Send us Fan Mail Adam and Jeff consider the merits of an immigration moratorium despite their concerns that stricter immigration laws might crimp the supply of low-priced gardening talent to tend the grounds at the corporate headquarters of the Omaha Bugle.  They discuss the current situation in which millions of largely unvetted migrants have been allowed to enter the United States courtesy of th...

Send us Fan Mail Always anxious to impart their vast knowledge about everything that matters to their millions of listeners, Adam and Jeff turn their attention to the Federal Reserve and its repeated insistence on flooding the economy with dollar bills in order to prop up asset prices and, purely coincidentally, the fortunes of the poor, starving 1 percenters--who might otherwise have to sell thei...

Send us Fan Mail Despite their vast knowledge about many important topics, Adam and Jeff are forced to admit that they know virtually nothing about supply chains and the logistical networks that facilitate the transport of goods from point of manufacture to point of sale.  As a result, they have called upon eminent supply chain and ocean shipping tech space expert Caroline Weaver (who coincidental...

Send us Fan Mail In continuing their review of what was arguably the most politicized and, perhaps, loudest State of the Union speech in recent memory, Adam and Jeff considered the many tidbits of wisdom and warmth offered by President Biden.  Jeff points out that Biden once again called for all wealthy people to pay their fair share of taxes but failed to define what amount or percent would be fa...

Send us Fan Mail Although Jeff was the only member of the Omaha Bugle staff who was  fortunate enough to watch the entire State of the Union address given by President Biden, he was happy to share the many profound insights offered by the President with the listening audience.  Adam, for his part, found his time to have been more profitably spent preparing a rib roast dinner and reviewing the Whit...

Send us Fan Mail Seeking to answer the most daunting questions about the human condition, Adam and Jeff wonder why the American dream of owning a home is becoming more and more elusive.  But they are forced to admit that housing is only one of a wide variety of basic necessities (e.g., cars, food, fuel, hush money) that are becoming more costly and, in the aggregate, making the middle class lifest...

Send us Fan Mail Diving into the morass of modern Anglo-American jurisprudence, the Omaha Bugle's senior correspondents, Adam and Jeff, discuss how the rule of law is absolutely crucial to the long-term success of any modern economy.  They point out that companies abhor uncertainty and chaos and are extremely reluctant to invest large sums of money in new plants or hire additional workers whe...

Send us Fan Mail Adam and Jeff wonder why the citizenry has become so disenchanted with the federal government and conclude that much of its dissatisfaction stems from the failure of elected officials to do what ordinary people must do every day--namely, live within their means.  They are disturbed by the increasing tendency of the government to rely on open-ended continuing resolutions instead of...

Send us Fan Mail Adam and Jeff delve into the vexing questions that arise when a spoiled diplomat's son who runs over a police officer directing traffic claims diplomatic immunity.  Jeff offers a scintillating history of the concept of diplomatic immunity--pointing out that it was devised to enable representatives of warring nations to confer with each other without fear of death (most of the...

Send us Fan Mail Due to the numerous mishaps that occur both in government and corporate America, Adam and Jeff wonder if the problem is due to the unbridled arrogance of many in the "credentialed class"--those individuals possessing advanced degrees from overpriced universities.  Indeed, Jeff offers a proposition that the quality of the decision-making in any large organization is inver...

Send us Fan Mail President Biden continues to set dubious records with the recent report that the Border Patrol nabbed more than 250,000 illegal migrants trying to enter the United States along the pretend southern border in December 2023 alone.  Adam and Jeff talk about the so-called $100 billion proposal to link a new "border security" bill with continued funding for Ukraine and Israel...

Send us Fan Mail Noted baby care experts Adam and Jeff weigh in on the Kyte Baby controversy in which an employee with a 22-week-old baby in NICU sought to work remotely in order to care for her baby but was told that her services would no longer be needed by the CEO.  The CEO offered two apologies on Tik Tok after news of the firing went viral and, in the process, managed to anger mothers of youn...

Send us Fan Mail Although still waiting for their nomination for the Nobel Prize in Economics to be announced, Adam and Jeff dismiss reports that the Pentagon has hired Taylor Swift  to serve as a covert political operative.  Aside from the fact that the story came from arch-rival Fox News which continues to flail away in a jealous rage at the ascending Omaha Bugle, neither Adam nor Jeff can under...

Send us Fan Mail In an unusual departure from the usual format of Shakespearean prose and grade-school humor, Adam and Jeff talk with Dr. Fuxian Yi about his predictions that China will not be able to overtake the United States as the leading economic global power due to its rapidly ageing population.  Having polished up his command of the English language with 4 lessons from a computerized langua...

Send us Fan Mail Adam and Jeff infuse a little culture into the Omaha Bugle by talking with Virginia-based architect Richard Forbes, well-known designer to the stars.  In their usual hard-hitting style that has endeared them to millions of listeners, Adam and Jeff ask Richard if he is related to the publisher Steve Forbes.  They also talk about the ways in which architects are trained and how they...

Send us Fan Mail In preparing for their annual reverse New Year's Eve party at the Omaha Bugle in which the consumption of champagne begins three days before the ball drops in Times Square and ends exactly at midnight on New Year's Eve with a traditional stomach pumping at the local hospital, Adam and Jeff consider the boasts of the Chinese Communist Party that it will soon bury the Unit...

Send us Fan Mail Having both dug themselves out of various piles of consumer debt over the years,  credit experts Adam and Jeff turn their attention to the massive $97 trillion in debt weighing down the global economy.  Adam points out that even though the United States has 1/3 of the world's debt totaling $33 trillion, it has accumulated most of this debt over the past four decades.  Jeff be...

Send us Fan Mail Adam and Jeff marvel about  how a Georgia jury managed to come up with a $148 million defamation verdict against Rudy Giuliani for exercising his right of free speech because the jury employed an innovative method of piling on duplicative damage awards over and over again in order to show that they do not like him very much.  Jeff wants to hire that jury to sit in on the numerous...

Send us Fan Mail Although the Nobel Committee once again inadvertently omitted them from the list of candidates for the Nobel Prize in Economics, Adam and Jeff persevere in their efforts to educate and entertain the general public about all things financial.  They consider the inflation that has been experienced by the United States over the past two years.  They also discuss how all administratio...

Send us Fan Mail Noted non-banking experts Adam and Jeff continue describing the steps they will take to build up a bank that is too big to fail.  They regard their lack of banking experience as a solid plus and believe that through innovative contrarian actions, they can build up a bank that will be so huge that the federal government will be too terrified to let it go under in the next economic...

Send us Fan Mail Adam and Jeff talk about the views on inflation espoused by their pretend friend, David Stockman, the budget director for the Reagan Administration.  Like the brain trust of the Omaha Bugle, Stockman is not particularly enthusiastic about the way in which "Bidenomics" has caused inflation to spike throughout the economy, pushing prices up on almost everything at a rate n...

Send us Fan Mail The Omaha Bugle's senior correspondents, Jeff and Adam, announce that the Omaha Bugle Global News Network is establishing a new kind of bank that will ultimately take a very unorthodox path to grow very big very quickly and thus become "too big to fail."  Once the Omaha Bugle National Bank & Trust or OBNBT (pronounced ob . neb . ta) opens its doors, it will offe...

Send us Fan Mail Noted experts about everything, Jeff and Adam, consider the factors that caused several would-be challengers to America's global preeminence to ultimately fail.  The Soviet Union in the 1950s and 1960s, Japan in the 1980s and 1990s, and China in the 2000s and 2010s, all burst onto the scene with supercharged economic growth rates coupled with increasing populations.  From the...
