Nexus X HumectressThe essence of what American Revolutionary Vanguard-Attack the System is all about: ““But try as much as you like, you can’t ignore the big one—Leviathan—the central state. Eventually it must be tackled head on and this can only be done by a nation-wide mass movement.This does not mean […]
Perpetual war and world empire in the name of humanity, as explained by one of its proponents. Read it for yourself. This week, the Barack Obama administration’s most eloquent and ardent advocate for humanitarian intervention overseas, Samantha Power, the ambassador to the United Nations, tweeted the following about […]
By Sean Scallon In a telling anecdote from President Clinton’s first inauguration in 1993, one attending Democrat looked up to watch the Air Force’s fighter jet fly-over and remarked: “Those are our F-15s now.” There was hardly a nationalist Left back then, as many liberals and those even […]

Not so fast, says Walter Williams. People who want more government income redistribution programs often sell their agenda with the lament, “The poor are getting poorer and the rich are getting richer,” but how about some evidence and you decide? I think the rich are getting richer, and […]
Duh? By Gary North Median household income is a good test of a household’s economic well-being. Half of households earn more. Half earn less. With mean average income, the incomes of the rich skew the figure upward. Not with median income. After four years of the Federal Reserve’s […]
Let the division continue. By Robert Reich Why is the nation more bitterly divided today than it’s been in 80 years?

By Grant Mincy The online liberty group “Thoughts on Liberty” pumps out some good stuff more often than not.

By Robert Henderson There are many rooms in the libertarian ideological house. That fact often derails rational discussion of libertarian issues, but it need not be a problem in this instance because the question being asked is most efficiently examined by testing it against the flintiest wing of […]
This is an interesting discussion of what the intellectual foundations of fascism actually are from Matthew Lyons’ blog. For those who don’t know, Lyons is very critical of ARV-ATS but this is good stuff. I’m sure our linking to a far left anti-fascist site will also increase accusations […]
By Pat Buchanan “Congress doesn’t have a whole lot of core responsibilities,” said Barack Obama last week in an astonishing remark. For in the Constitution, Congress appears as the first branch of government. And among its enumerated powers are the power to tax, coin money, create courts, provide […]
By Paul Craig Roberts Washington and its British and French puppet governments are poised to yet again reveal their criminality. The image of the West as War Criminal is not a propaganda image created by the West’s enemies, but the portrait that the West has painted of itself. […]

Article by Kelley B. Vlahos In most Hollywood horror franchises we know that the villains – take your Michael Myers, Jason Voorhees, or your rakish Freddy Krueger – always come back. No matter what painful death or injury felled them in the previous romp, an endless string of […]
By Peter Hitchens The pathetic bleating flock of the British political media are helping to beat the drums for war. Yet again. Late last week, the BBC began blasting the airwaves with stories about a chemical weapons attack in the suburbs of Damascus. Initially, its reporters and presenters […]
By Ivan Eland Although the world is focused on the military coup in Egypt, the accompanying repression of the supporters of the duly elected democratic government, and the real possibility of massive societal strife, another authoritarian government is busily taking its country down a similar road to civil […]
By Jacob Heilbrunn Here we go again. As Americans prepare to march on Washington, Washington is preparing to march on Damascus.
