Damon Linker is the only other commentator beside myself that I have ever seen use the description of “popular front” to describe the neocon-led (or neocon-embedded) anti-Trump coalition. Linker is what is called a “theocon. ” The theocons were a neocon front movement that was created by Podhoretz […]

By Ryan Cooper The Week For several years after the 2008 financial crisis, it seemed that any brand of European lefty party, from socialist to milquetoast liberal, was on the road to extinction.
