By Damon Linker, The Week Why no one will stand up to Trump in the 2024 GOP primary. I have no idea if Donald Trump will actually run for president again in 2024. No one does. He could be feigning an intention to mount a campaign in order […]
By Peter R. Quiñones I hope that you understand, or are at least beginning to, that the radical Left is not going to stop. Many people have pointed out that their belief in equity for all, which really means the destruction of the status quo and the lifting […]

Vella Chronicles Minds Wide Shut: How the New Fundamentalisms Divide Us by Gary Saul Morson and Morton Schapiro Princeton University Press 336 pp., $29.95 Fundamentalism has long been considered a religious phenomenon, a narrowmindedness that only afflicts Bible-thumping extremists. Yet fundamentalist thinking is everywhere today, […]
However much some folks may be inclined to make fun of this, I suspect it is the key to ending Wokeism. Just let everyone identify as whatever they want to identify as. By Zbigniew Janowski Chronicles Equality is undergoing a new renaissance in which all identities are fluid […]
By Paul Gottfried, Chronicles Two years ago, Gracy Olmstead, a journalist who writes on farming and farming communities, partnered with Intercollegiate Studies Institute (ISI) to compose a list of those whom she and the Institute view as “conservatives.” Of the now deceased figures who appear on Olmstead’s list, […]

Kim Iversen details the state of workplace vaccine mandates, now that the Biden administration’s influence is gone.
The murder rate has also gone up in red states like Texas. it’s gone up across the board. The US society is a breeding ground for antisocial behavior and antisocial people tend to have antisocial children because they abuse them, neglect them, etc so it is not easy […]

Contributions from leading experts highlighting practical and theoretical issues surrounding the persistence of slavery, human trafficking and forced labour are being serialised here over the coming months. Ronald […]
By Cody J. Wisniewski, The American Conservative Contrary to popular misconceptions, the Second Amendment did not create a right to keep and bear arms. Rather, the Second Amendment acknowledges and seeks to protect the People’s natural right to self-defense and the tools required for the exercise of that right, which […]
The two sides in the Red/Blue conflict make greatly exaggerated claims about each other. For instance, I don’t see Trump as a “fascist” or even a “conservative.” I see him more as a Nixon-like figure, an instinctive Rockefeller Republican who uses populism to appeal to the conventional working […]
Happily, neocons are the smallest group. By Alayna Treene, author of Sneak Peek The post-Trump Republican Party cares most about issues in seven key categories, with most prioritizing economic issues like job creation and limited government, according to a new survey conducted by former President Trump’s chief 2016 and […]
By William S. Lind, Traditional Right This column is not another retrospective on the Capitol Hill riot of January 6, 2021. rather it is a retrospective on the recent retrospective of the original event. What we saw in that retrospective is what anyone who understands the system would […]
‘The threat of violence is a powerful political tool.’ Ines Pohl, DW’s Washington bureau chief, spoke with Rick Wilson, co-founder of the Lincoln Project, about the political future of the United States, the consequences of the Capital riot a year ago, and the dangers of the fractionalized country.

By Peter R. Quiñones You don’t have to be a political junkie to know that Illinois, and especially Chicago politics, is not only corrupt, but it’s actually a job requirement of anyone seeking office. As of 2013, four of the previous seven Illinois governors had gone to prison […]
By Joseph M. Hanneman, Epoch Times ust moments before she was shot and killed, Ashli Babbitt confronted the police officers guarding the doors to the Speaker’s Lobby at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, blasting them for allowing rioters to smash the windows and not calling for […]
Team Rising reacts to Don Lemon’s controversial comments about the unvaccinated.
Krystal and Saagar respond to Texas Rep. Dan Crenshaw’s angry response to a constituent who pressed him on comments he made about Jesus on a podcast that contrast from previous stances
So what if he did? I bet Crowder doesn’t mention all the awful things about George Washington and Abraham Lincoln on presidents day
Krystal and Saagar are joined by medical professor & researcher Dr. Vinay Prasad to break down what Dr. Peter McCullough and Dr. Malone got right & wrong about covid vaccines on Joe Rogan’s show
This article is interesting because it foreshadows what mainstream political debate is going to look like in the future, at least in heavily populated areas. Today’s moderates are tomorrow’s conservatives. Today’s far-left are tomorrow’s liberals. Over time, today’s conservatives (e.g. FOX fans) are going to be increasingly small […]
We keep claiming FBI over and over, completely missing that Ray could be a CIA asset operating domestically in violation of their charter.
I’ve been looking further into the role of the CIA in postwar US politics. It seems that much of the New Right and New Left that emerged in the postwar period were controlled opposition movements created by the intelligence services, although in collusion with different internal factions. It […]
Timothy Snyder’s viewpoint is interesting. Of course, he is a Yale academic, and therefore a high priest among the new clerisy, and his main concerns are both preserving the empire and achieving the hegemony of the Blue Tribe within the empire. His main fear is the emergence of […]
By Timothy Snyder As we reach the first anniversary of Trump’s failed coup attempt, the former president and his supporters are indulging in a pleasant dream of his return to power in 2025. An electoral victory seems unlikely: he lost last time as an incumbent by seven million […]
Krystal and Saagar cover the decision by the Australian government to ban tennis great Novak Djokovic from the country for not being vaccinated and lying to the government
Joy Reid “corporations are the most vulnerable in our society”
Going undercover is almost always the only way to get truth.
My suspicion is that the national conservatives (a neocon front movement) are trying to cultivate De Santis as their front man as they try to build a parallel movement to the Trumpists. A three-way fight between the Natcons/neocons, Trumptards, and anti-Trump conspiratards would be welcome. Ryan Grim and […]
Saagar covers the school mask wars unfolding across America between state level politicians and the Biden administration who refuse to concede ground on masking children
By Michael Paul Williams, Richmond Times Dispatch As he settles into office, Gov. Glenn Youngkin looks an awful lot like one of those “inherently divisive concepts” he seeks to ban from the classroom. It’s one thing to campaign to a soundtrack of dog whistles and yet another to […]

It would be interesting if the GOP split into 3 quarreling factions: the DeSantis-led natcons, the Trump loyalists, and the anti-Trump but conspiratard right. By Peter Weber The Week Former President Donald Trump has been privately fuming about Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) for months, irked that DeSantis […]
By Matthew Vadum, Epoch Times Allowing national flags and flags about historic events, causes, and organizations while refusing to raise a Christian flag outside a city hall is an unconstitutional example of government censorship, a seemingly sympathetic Supreme Court was told on Jan. 18.

By Victor Davis Hanson, Independent Institute Thousands of Americans have died needlessly because of weaponized disinformation about China’s culpability, vaccines, useful drugs, lockdowns, racial preferences, and long-term care facilities. From the moment COVID-19 appeared, the pandemic became inseparable from politics. Political frenzy was inevitable since the SARS-CoV-2 virus […]
By Joel Kotkin Over the past several decades, the progressive Left has successfully fulfilled Antonio Gramsci’s famed admonition of a “long march through the institutions”. In almost every Western country, its adherents now dominate the education system, media, cultural institutions, and financial behemoths. But what do they have […]
By Joseph M. Hanneman Epoch Times Ashli Babbitt desperately tried to prevent rioters from vandalizing the doors leading to the Speaker’s Lobby at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, even stepping between one troublemaker and police officers guarding the doors, a video analysis shows. Frame-by-frame video evidence […]
