Free Republic

Ever since the Never Trumpers left the Republican Party and rushed into the arms, politically and financially, of the Democrats, it's been pretty clear that all the "conserving conservatism" talk was a smokescreen. They wanted to run the Republican Party, and when they were rebuffed, they exited to grift off the Democrats. I wrote about Jeb!'s former communications director now embracing Hasan Piker and Nick Fuentes because he wants to preserve "democracy" against Donald Trump, and we all know that David French, who ran into the arms of The New York Times, argued that the best way to fight abortions...

The psyop of Nick Fuentes is now complete. In case you were wondering why the NY Times has been glorifying him and he is botted on social media according to @elonmusk and why he was never arrested over J6 when people who did far less were: He is a Democrat and just admitted to being a “moderate Democrat” on his show. If this is what the Moderate Democrats look like, imagine how much worse the Woke and Radical left democrats are. His sole litmus test is hating Israel. It’s been obvious for a while Nick made a deal with the...

Nick Fuentes, part of the twisted “WOKE REICH”, just got exposed as the MONSTER he truly is. A woman shows up at his Illinois home… and this coward SPRAYS her with mace, then SHOVES her down the stairs like a ragdoll. She crashes hard onto the concrete, crawling in pain while he stands over her like some deranged predator. This is the same Fuentes who is telling everyone to ”VOTE DEMOCRAT” to stick it to Trump and Republicans, and physically assaults women for daring to confront him. Battery charges? Mysteriously dismissed. But the video doesn’t lie. This is not a...

There is a difference between dissent and sabotage. Between principled skepticism and strategic subversion. And increasingly, that line is being tested—not by the political Left, but by what can only be described as a counter-MAGA Fifth Column operating within the right itself. At a moment when the United States is engaged in active military operations to destroy the escalating threat from the Iranian regime—one that has openly pursued nuclear capability, funded proxy terrorism, and targeted American interests abroad—there has emerged a chorus of influential voices whose messaging consistently runs counter to the Trump administration’s interests. Figures like Tucker Carlson, Candace...

A new report from City Journal‘s Ryan Thorpe and Christopher Rufo takes readers inside all that is alleged about Nick Fuentes’s involvement in the Ali Alexander-underage photos scandal. Fuentes and Alexander, both of whom are far-right activists, have a longstanding relationship, and the latter is perhaps best known for having allegedly solicited nude photos from two underage boys, including a 15-year-old. According to Thorpe and Rufo, Fuentes allegedly knew about Alexander’s proclivities before Milo Yiannopoulos, another far-right activist, publicized them in 2023. From Thorpe and Rufo’s report: On a livestream in 2017, Fuentes said there was “abundant evidence” that Alexander...

"I cannot wait for the Democrats to take the House." Nick Fuentes tells everyone to "STAY HOME" in 2026. [Video attached]

FBI Director Kash Patel announced that "the FBI has captured more of this country's 'most wanted fugitives' in the last year than were captured during the whole four years Biden was president." Christopher Wray, the FBI Director appointed by President Trump and retained by President Biden until the end of his presidency, called Patel's comparison "unfair. We could've easily racked up many more arrests of the most wanted over the four years Biden held the office, but we were given different priorities. President Biden made it clear that our top priority was to go after what was then the former...

White supremacist and MAGA influencer Nick Fuentes went all in over the weekend on supporting California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) over Vice President JD Vance because Newsom is more “handsome.” Fuentes, who has regularly attacked Vance in the past, calling him childish names like “gay” and “fat,” posted to social media on Sunday: “Physiognomy is real. Post physique, its handsome thursday. I only believe in beauty and aesthetics!!” JD Vance = fat subhuman. Newsom mogs him to death I would vote for him 100x over just because he’s handsome. “NOOOOOO NOT LIKE THAT!!!! YOU HAVE TO VOTE FOR THE REPUBLICAn!!”...

A fringe white nationalist is generating millions of views of anti-Indian content. Research reveals 61% of his engagement comes from bot farms in Pakistan, Indonesia, and Russia. There is a particular moment in every demagogue’s career when rhetoric turns into a project. Not the early period of noisy adolescence, when insult functions merely as theatre, or even the intermediate stage when vitriol becomes an organising principle. No, the moment that matters is when hatred acquires a constituency, when contempt ceases to be performance and instead aspires to become politics. Nick Fuentes has arrived at that moment. For years, Fuentes existed...

Vice President JD Vance had two choice words for racist troll Nick Fuentes and others like MSNBC host Jen Psaki, who have made revolting comments about the second lady: “Eat -–-.” “Let me be clear. Anyone who attacks my wife, whether their name is Jen Psaki or Nick Fuentes, can eat s–t,” Vance told UnHerd in an interview published Sunday. “That’s my official policy as vice president of the United States.”

Members of the MAGA faithful gathered here Thursday to kick off Turning Point USA’s America Fest, the largest meeting for the organization since its founder, Charlie Kirk, was shot to death on a Utah college campus in September. Despite that somber backdrop, the event quickly devolved into a spectacle of MAGA infighting.

It appears white nationalist media figure Nick Fuentes isn’t quite as popular as his supporters would have us believe.While the media pretends that the young bigot is the new avatar for the right, the numbers tell a different story. To sum it up, Fuentes' popularity is about as real as Jasmine Crockett's chances of winning Texas' Senate race. The Network Contagion Research Institute (NCRI) dropped a report on Monday showing that Fuentes’ recent surge in popularity did not come from organic grassroots support, but a coordinated campaign among his followers, foreign engagement farms, anonymous bot networks, and targeted “raid” tactics...

"Meaningful action must accompany any apology," wrote Pearce, who is now stepping away from social mediaGuy Pearce has apologised for sharing “misinformation and falsehoods” about Israel on social media whilst publicly voicing support for Palestine. “It has been brought to my attention that, in my support of Palestine, I have inadvertently re-posted articles, and/or statements, that have contained misinformation and falsehoods,” Pearce told Jewish News, per Variety. “I am aware how sharing inaccurate content can cause confusion and distress; for this I am deeply sorry. I will certainly endeavour to be more diligent in future to verify anything I share...

. . . The ex-legislator debunked the charges after Fox News asked him about remarks by a Guatemalan government official speaking at the National Press Club on Tuesday who named Fuentes as being the pivotal character in the organization of the tens of thousands of Central Americans and Mexicans who have joined the caravans. Mario Duarte, Guatemala’s head of intelligence, called Fuentes a key coordinator of the caravan, according to published reports. It was the most recent public accusation of Fuentes, a former Honduran lawmaker, of being an organizer of the caravans.

Conservative podcaster Ben Shapiro blasted Tucker Carlson on Monday, calling him “the most virulent super-spreader of vile ideas in America.” In an episode of “The Ben Shapiro Show” released Monday, Shapiro criticized Carlson’s podcast episode with Holocaust-denier Nick Fuentes, saying Carlson failed to push back on Fuentes’ bigotry. “The issue here isn’t that Tucker Carlson had Nick Fuentes on his show last week. He has every right to do that, of course,” Shapiro said. “The issue here is that Tucker Carlson decided to normalize and fluff Nick Fuentes and that the Heritage Foundation then decided to robustly defend that performance.”...

And the lesson that our professional betters in Washington have drawn over the past few weeks is that means they are as bad as Nick Fuentes. They are Nazis too!Tucker Carlson: "But of course, they are not Nazis by and large. They are just American young people. And so the question is—and it is a pressing question if you care about the future of the country—why have they been listening to Nick Fuentes? Sincerely, like what is this?Why aren’t they listening to somebody from the Heritage Foundation or the Daily Wire? Why do they believe Nick Fuentes more than they...

After the Heritage Foundation defended Carlson’s interview, internal messages at the conservative think tank showed staffers were outraged by the decision. One employee wrote, “Talking with some of the interns I think there are a growing number of them who actually agree [with him].” Conservative writer Rod Dreher corroborated on his Substack, “I am told by someone in a position to know that something like 30 to 40 percent of DC GOP staffers under the age of 30 are Groypers.” While Republican politicians like JD Vance and Ted Cruz have distanced themselves from the podcaster, his influence with the next...

I don’t know what you did on Friday night, but I spent about 90 minutes in the vice president’s study with him and the men you see above, talking geopolitics, Hungary, and the survival of Christianity in Europe, among other things. Of course I can’t be indiscreet about the discussion, but it was rich and vigorous. I’m really glad that JD got to experience the actual, living Viktor Orban in person, and to see for himself how wrong the propaganda is. They got on very, very well. I was able to have a few minutes with the vice president before...

I despise the Groyper movement, but if you want to understand where Fuentes gets purchase with young men I will tell you how it happened by telling you about my experience at the orientation night when my son joined elementary school band: My 11 year old son son joined the elementary school band, and so I went to the parents orientation night which was held at a local high-school. As the night went on it became obvious to me why young men rage against the larger social system.

What Everyone Misses About Nick FuentesThe racialist influencer represents a spectacle that demands cool analysis rather than emotional reaction.The racialist influencer Nick Fuentes has caused an uproar with his appearance on Tucker Carlson’s podcast. Fuentes, a 27-year-old live-streamer, has built a reputation as the most controversial voice on the right. He’s embraced seemingly every taboo: praising Hitler, disputing the Holocaust’s death toll, calling himself a “white nationalist,” musing about domestic violence, and opposing interracial marriage.Carlson’s invitation has divided conservatives. Some suggest that Fuentes’s appearance on the podcast represented an unacceptable mainstreaming of his views. Others, most notably Heritage Foundation president...
