By Michael Gryboski, Christian Post Reporter A church in California that has reportedly held worship services indoors with hundreds of attendees not wearing face masks was held in contempt of court and fined. For months, Calvary Chapel of San Jose and its pastor, Michael McClure, have overseen worship […]
By Eric Todisco, People A Los Angeles judge has ruled that L.A. County’s outdoor dining ban will be limited to three weeks as planned, and then must be reassessed by the health department before the ban can be extended. On Tuesday, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge James Chalfant […]
This is like one of those deconverted Jehovah’s Witnesses videos.
The Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 counts as one of the most reprehensible laws in American history. But rather than wait for Congress to repeal it, or for the Supreme Court to strike it down, Northern States took action to nullify it in practice and effect.
An ongoing debate that I have with a number of socially conservative friends is over the question of whether our society has fallen into free-wheeling decadence. My view is that we are the same moralistic prigs we always were, only about different things, and even the differences aren’t […]
Well, that didn’t take long. Every time a new administration takes office, the other side starts talking about secession. By James Krugnale, Digg.Com Conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh said on his show Wednesday that America was headed toward the conditions that resulted in the American Civil War after […]
Oregon Live The Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office late Wednesday offered its first glimpse into Tuesday morning’s legal action at Portland’s “red house on Mississippi,” describing deputies breaking down fortifications, making arrests and finding weapons. The deputies, with assistance from Portland Police Bureau officers, were accompanying contractors there to […]
By Hallie Golden, The Guardian Dozens of protesters have been occupying a street in Portland, Oregon, surrounded by makeshift barriers, in an effort to keep a Black and Indigenous family from being evicted from the home they have lived in for 65 years. The home, known as the […]
Imagine that. Although I agree with him on the issue of not abusing executive orders. Krystal Ball digs into audio recordings of a meeting between Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and civil rights leaders.
This is a pretty interesting discussion of culture war politics. Glad to see Saager pointing out that “conservatism” is a scam and Krystal pointing out that the capitalist class uses wokeness as a marketing gimmick.
By Scott Remer, In These Times In 1770, the novelist Oliver Goldsmith observed, “Ill fares the land, to hastening ills a prey, where wealth accumulates, and men decay.” Modernize the language, and he could have been writing about the situation in the United States today. The pandemic has exacerbated a debt […]
Some more bread and circuses comedy. Although now that the bread supply has decreased, the ruling class seems to be doubling down on the circuses. Theoretically, I would prefer that all organizations were voluntary (meaning genuinely voluntary, unlike state-capitalist corporations). That means organizations could be as diverse or […]
Let the Red and Blue go their own way. Russia Today A Texas-led motion to the US Supreme Court challenging the elections in four states that declared Joe Biden president has angered Democrats. Between that and a rant by CNN’s Chris Cuomo, ‘Civil War’ began trending on Twitter. […]
By David Kotok, Financial Sense Note to readers. Yang Hu is the Director of Economics and Mortgage Market Analysis at Fannie Mae. He is also a serious student of history and a thoroughly skilled writer. He offered a rejoinder to my earlier commentary entitled “I’m worried.” What Kind […]
I have an essay coming out soon on Tolkien’s political ideas.
This makes for interesting propaganda from the Sinophobe “realist” wing of the ruling class, but it has cause and effect in reverse. China would be nothing without the support of Western capital. No Western investors, no Western borrowers, no Western export markets, no Western consumers=No China. It’s as […]
Sorry, lefties, but if these kinds of tactics are legitimate for “social justice” protestors they’re legitimate for anti-maskers. By Katie Shepherd, Washington Post Minutes into a public health district’s virtual meeting to vote on a local mask mandate in Idaho on Tuesday evening, Ada County Commissioner Diana Lachiondo […]
My enemies from the Antifa often do not realize what good pan-secessionists they actually are. By Andy Ngo, The Postmillennial Black Lives Matter-Antifa and other left-wing extremists have repelled police and created a new “autonomous zone” in north Portland to protect a house being illegally occupied by squatters. […]
2021’s encore to 2020?
It couldn’t have happened to nicer people.
Raytheon’s new front man.
I don’t care about electoral politics, but I wish Yang luck on this. Some pretty good economic analysis in this.
The ruling class keeps trying to tighten the screws.
So much for the “coup.”
An interesting discussion that challenges Branch Covidian orthodoxy. Tom Woods interview Jay Bhattacharya. Listen here. Jay Bhattacharya (MD, PhD, Stanford) is a professor of medicine at Stanford University who has been working both on the epidemiology of COVID-19 as well as the appropriate policy response. He is a […]
This is a must-listen for anyone who is interested in the relationship between the state and the oppression of blacks, particularly the relationship between economics laws, housing laws, and drug laws. Williams’ “The State Against Blacks” is a must-read. Another similar book that is quite good is Sowell’s […]
The problem I have with Sinophobes like Saager is that they have cause and effect in reverse. The CCP is powerful to the degree that the Atlanticists enable them. Saagar Enjeti shares his concerns about how Joe Biden’s administration will deal with China.
Hopefully, very doomed, and with Trump using OANN, Newsmax or his own network to undermine FOX, Krystal Ball discusses calls for the media to stop covering Donald Trump once Joe Biden is sworn in as President of the United States.
We need a moratorium on rent, medical bills, student loans, credit cards, student loans, utility bills, car payments, and back taxes. What now have is a government-induced depression with a major resource grab by the ruling. Reparations being the only viable solution (except for another wave of direction […]
This is a pretty good overview of the latest pandemic news. Krystal Ball and Saagar Enjeti weigh in on the start of Covid vaccinations in Britain, Dr. Anthony Fauci’s prediction that we will see another surge in cases stemming from Thanksgiving, and reports that the Trump Administration chose […]
The most interesting thing about the election was the way in which what are essentially two moderate Republican candidates managed to dupe millions into thinking this was some kind of Eastern Front existential showdown between fascism and communism. By Kevin Singer, Alyssa Rockenbach The Independent Men who refer […]
World War Two was a long way from being the “just war” or “good war” it is often claimed to be even by many who are otherwise antiwar. World War One was a catfight between the colonialist powers that left many colonialist countries in shambles and created the […]
It’s amazing how many so-called “anarchists” are actually viscerally opposed to decentralization, usually on the grounds that someone, somewhere, somehow might be racist or not have an abortion clinic on the next corner, as if that’s all that matters. Although some of the Misesoids expressed a typical bourgie […]
It is obvious enough that “big capital” is using the pandemic as a means of eliminating its competition from “small capital” and the petite bourgeoisie, which is why it is not surprising that right-libertarians and small “c” conservatives, for whom small capital is a primary constituent, are the […]
The police state meets the therapeutic state. By Jeffrey Schweers, Tallahassee.Com State police brandishing firearms Monday raided the Tallahassee home of Rebekah Jones, the former Department of Health data scientist who built the state’s much-praised COVID-19 dashboard before being fired over what she said was refusing to “manipulate […]
Some more pan-secession in action. New Jersey 101.5 To help slow the spread of the novel coronavirus in New Jersey the state Health Department has dramatically stepped up its contact tracing program. If you test positive for coronavirus, a contact tracer from your local health department will call […]
From a 2015 review of ATS on Apple Podcasts radio. I’ve followed several anarchist thinkers over social media in recent years and come to the conclusion that most of them understand anarchism in rote, academic ways while having little practical understanding of what anarchy might actually look like, […]
Most of the US Left seems to have bought into the narrative that Trump is either a literal fascist or a conventional reactionary or right-wing strongman like Putin, Erdogan, Orban, Duterte, Bolsonaro, etc. I think all of this is a misunderstanding of what historic fascism actually was, how […]
It’s funny to watch some bimbo trophy wife whose husband bought her a Senate seat try to pretend like she has an IQ above the proverbial room temperature.
Ain’t gonna happen. Look for a genuine armed insurgency based in rural America to emerge at some point in the future like the similar insurgencies that have traditionally existed in remote areas of Latin America as the US class system increasingly begins to look like Latin America’s class […]
Krystal on how you can be a billionaire and still be a loser.
Well, this should be interesting…
Whatever else could be said about Trump, at least he’s a thorn in the side of the neocons and Reaganites.
One law for the ruling class, another law for all other classes.
Meek reformists begging for a few extra crumbs for the peasants.
More “let them eat cake” shenanigans from Princess Nancy Antoinette.
