Nexus X HumectressThis is interesting. Taft Republicanism is definitely making a comeback, although some of these characters are more “neo-Know-Nothings” than Taftians.

By Peter R. Quiñones Recently, a few people have asked what I believe the end game is for everything that’s happening now. Inflation, warmongering, educators grooming kindergartners – an endless stream of insanity that points to everything coming to a head. Soon. Some are predicting nuclear war. Is […]

by Peter Zeihan on April 7, 2022 There has been a persistent argument made by Russia apologists – unwitting or otherwise – that Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine is the fault of the West. Or NATO. Or some combination, but with the United States ultimately bearing the brunt of responsibility. […]
By Caitlin Johnstone NBC News has a new report out citing multiple anonymous US officials, humorously titled “In a break with the past, U.S. is using intel to fight an info war with Russia, even when the intel isn’t rock solid“. The officials say the Biden administration has […]
By Paul Raekstad One of the more debated topics in the recent realist literature concerns the compatibility of realism and utopianism.

When the tankies out-alt-right the alt-right.
I’m always suspicious of some of these “world’s richest people” lists for precisely that reason. They tend to leave off some of these older royal, aristocratic, banking, and industrial dynasties that extend back for centuries. For instance, I suspect that some of the royal dynasties in Europe and […]
From August, 2021. Interesting how the weenie class has little interest in this. “But muh Ukraine!” France 24 Bahrain, Russia and other members of the U.N. Human Rights Council pushed through a vote on Thursday to shut down the body’s war crimes investigations in Yemen, in a stinging […]
Russia vs. Ukraine is a heel vs. heel match of international relations. Ivan Koloff vs. Skandor Akbar. The intelligent response from other nations would be to simply contain them and keep the fighting from spreading to other countries.
So apparently no one at BSNBC noticed the hilarious irony of dressing their spokesmodel in an Elmer Fudd cosplay outfit. And who forgot to give him the bazooka?

War is a double win for them: it gets ratings and makes their advertisers very rich. I guess they hadn’t considered the dying part.
Journalist and former federal prosecutor Ankush Khardori

By Damon Linker, The Week In the aftermath of Donald Trump’s surprise defeat of Hillary Clinton in 2016, many on the center-left insisted the problem was our institutions: the illegitimate Electoral College, the dangerously anti-democratic Senate, our fundamentally unfair district maps and voting procedures. Many of these objections are […]
