Ben Shapiro seems to think so. During a recent interview with Dana Loesch, the Daily Wire host lamented the rise in white identity among young conservatives. “I think we can start with what’s driving this in the first place,” Shapiro said. “For a decade or more, there was an attempt by the left to target Christian white men.” Continuing, he explained: "In saying that over and over and over, they started to create a feeling in a lot of young white men, that as a targeted group,...

There’s just one problem: That coalition never existed, at least not to the extent imagined by doomsaying Democrats and wish-casting Republicans. Grasping this basic reality is necessary to understand the macro trends in American politics. Even after decades of mass immigration from the Global South, the red team has remained overwhelmingly white. Trump’s voters in 2024 were 84 percent white, according to the comprehensive AP VoteCast survey of 120,000 voters. That’s...

The current administration has even added nihilistic violent extremists—those who “believe in nothing”—to the laundry list. The Biden administration, for its part, aided in this exercise by vastly overstating the threat posed by Trump-aligned conservatives in the wake of January 6th.

That quote, though, is much older. It is from an IRS agent addressing officials of a conservative organization that was being audited during Bill Clinton’s presidency.

Gavin Newsom is the new front runner in the race for the Democratic nomination for president. Behind a social media campaign that mocks the style and demeanor of President Donald Trump, Newsom’s charges have worked wonders for his national profile and elevated what appears to be an all-but-certain presidential campaign in 2028.

Trump now faces a pivotal choice: statesmanship in pursuit of U.S. interests or subservience to Israel’s radical government. The recent strikes were meant to cripple Iran’s nuclear ambitions.
