I tend to think that if there is a second civil war, race will not be the primary dividing line. Americans are becoming more demographically integrated along socioeconomic, geographical, institutional, and cultural lines, but more fractured along partisan and social class lines. Tucker Carlson Today on Fox Nation […]
This piece includes a somewhat interesting Q&A with George Packer on rising sectarianism in the US. By Jeffrey Goldberg, The Atlantic Donald Trump’s battle cry of insurrection—“If you don’t fight like hell, you’re not going to have a country anymore”—didn’t strike me at first as a four-horsemen moment […]
I greatly suspect that if these had been poor inner-city black kids, the cops would have simply blown them away. A 12-year-old boy and 14-year-old girl who ran away from their Florida group home are in custody after cops say they broke into a house, armed themselves with […]
By David Yaffe-Bellany, Bloomberg Amateur internet sleuths have turned the Washington, D.C., insurrection on Jan. 6 into the ultimate online manhunt. As he watched footage of the Jan. 6 siege of the U.S. Capitol, Chris Sigurdson, an out-of-work actor in Canada, found himself drawn to a disturbing image: […]

By Jarrett Renshaw, Reuters June 15 (Reuters) – Five months after the attack on the U.S. Capitol, the Biden administration on Tuesday will unveil steps for federal and local officials and social media companies to battle national security threats posed […]
The most interesting information in this is that the military was split in half in terms of support or opposition to the Trump regime. And it’s obvious that the Biden regime is trying to purge the military of conservatives. What if the mass civil unrest currently being experienced […]

GOP Rep. Nancy Mace had her house vandalized with ‘Antifa symbols.’
Crimethinc On the night of June 12, 2020, Atlanta police officers murdered Rayshard Brooks, a 27-year-old Black man, at a Wendy’s in south Atlanta, Georgia.

This is fairly interesting. A new study on the January 6 Capitol insurrection finds that of the nearly 400 rioters arrested or charged, 93% are white and 86% are male.

The way I think the gun control issue will play out is like this. The more liberal areas of the US, like large cities and blue states, will continue to impose stricter gun laws over time. The federal government will tighten the laws as well. However, the deep […]
A civil war in the US wouldn’t be regional in the way depicted in that image. It would be more like Lebanon in the 70s and 80s and Syria today. Street by street, block by block, neighborhood by neighborhood, family by family, etc.
Scott Pelley speaks with Michael Sherwin, the federal prosecutor who was leading the criminal investigation, the largest in U.S. history, into the assault on the Capitol.
On Tuesday a federal judge said it was “troubling” that Michael Sherwin, the former acting U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, spoke about potential sedition charges in the ongoing Capitol riot investigation during an interview with CBS’s “60 Minutes.” Washington Post national security reporter Devlin Barrett joins […]

A job well done. It seems the prevailing trend is that leftists attack state outposts at the local level, while rightists attack the state directly in the capitol. Fair enough. Unfortunately, too many “conservatives” and even some “libertarians” are taking a position that defends state institutions when they […]
ByJack Date,Luke Barr, andMorgan Winsor, ABC News U.S. Capitol Police officials said Wednesday they have “obtained intelligence that shows a possible plot to breach the Capitol by an identified militia group on Thursday, March 4” — the date that far-right conspiracy theorists believe former President Donald Trump will […]

Some paleo-pig-love from Bill Lind. Actually, the question of how much to love/hate the cops, how much violence to use, how much to reject the conventional political system, etc. is going to be a big source of division on the Right in the future. By William S. Lind, […]
Over ten years ago, I predicted the sinking middle class would be part of the basis of future insurgent movements. I generally got the socioeconomic and demographic factors right, although the political realignment along system/anti-system lines I was hoping for never happened. Instead, the Red and Blue Tribes […]
The USA is rapidly becoming a society that has the social norms of the Western European ruling classes but the class structures of Latin America. This situation will likely lead to more civil unrest in the future, along with populist movements with demagogues of their own, left and […]
Trump unleashed his mob onto Congress on January 6, and the fallout continues. The biggest question on many minds is how to root out the hundreds of far-right, anti-government groups who saw the Trump presidency as their coming-out party. Some are floating the idea of using the so-called […]
