  • The More Popular the AfD, the More of a Target It Becomes

    Party members are being attacked in the streets, and AfD offices are being burnt down. Unable to steady the rise of the right-wing populist Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) through democratic means, extremist leftists are increasingly turning to violence. Two party members were attacked on Sunday, October 5th in Göttingen by two women and three men who recognised them as belonging to the AfD, leaving the pair “slightly injured.” The five perpetrators—aged between 23 and 49—are being investigated on suspicion of grievous bodily harm. Author Kolja Barghoorn described the incident as proof that “Germany has a massive problem with far-left extremist...
  • After Peace, Still They March: Anger Over London Palestine Rally

    Organisers plan to flood central London just a day after guns fell silent in Gaza, sparking fury over antisemitic chants and public disruption. Thousands of pro-Palestinian demonstrators are expected to flood central London on Saturday—just a day after a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas took effect—prompting accusations that organisers are fuelling division. The Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC) will bus supporters from across the country to march through Westminster and Waterloo from midday. The demonstration comes less than 24 hours after a Trump-brokered peace deal brought fighting in Gaza to a halt, with Israel agreeing to withdraw troops from parts of...
  • Letitia James now reaps what she had sown — so spare us the faux outrage

    Democrats sound like pull-string talkie dolls as they line up to tremble their lower lips and cry about what Awful Orange Man is doing to their beloved Attorney General Letitia James. It only took about five minutes after the announcement of her federal mortgage-fraud indictment for Dems near and far to wring their handkerchiefs about the injustice of it all. “No one should be surprised that Donald Trump is employing fascist tactics,” fretted mayoral wannabe Zohran Mamdani. “Prosecuting his opponents, weaponizing the federal government, and attacking the very fabric of our democracy.” “Keep your corrupt, grubby, abusive hands off Tish...

    Jay Jones’s vile texts expose more than personal depravity—they reveal the left’s deeper creed: that pain, not principle, is the true engine of political change. Over the last week or so, observers—mostly on the right—have made a great deal of noise about the musings of Jay Jones, the Democratic nominee for Attorney General in Virginia. Jones, as I’m sure you don’t need me to tell you, openly and enthusiastically discussed killing a political opponent—the former Speaker of the Virginia House of Delegates—and, more disturbingly, hoped this opponent’s children would die so that he could watch their mother suffer as she...

    Over at last few years, people on the left have taken exception to the mission of Turning Point USA (TPUSA). Our leftist university campuses in particular have criticized the TPUSA mission, since it advocates conservative and religious values. Since the assassination of Charlie Kirk, the founder of the organization, attempts to ban the organization have grown exponentially. And if they oppose the plans of TPUSA, they have good reason to be worried about maintaining their leftist agenda: Since [Kirk’s] death, interest in Turning Point USA, the organization he co-founded has grown exponentially. “In the past 2 weeks, TPUSA has received...
  • The Citizenry Can No Longer Tolerate America’s Authoritarians

    America’s authoritarian elite have been wrong about everything, whether COVID, immigration, or elections, and our nation cannot survive that much longer. The perpetually irascible Samuel Goldwyn, a founder of the American motion picture industry, once quipped, “I am willing to admit I may not always be right, but I am never wrong.” While Goldwyn said this tongue-in-cheek, the quote is an accurate portrayal of one of the primary and most obvious character traits of the legions of authoritarians that now dominate the entrenched ruling class, legacy media, and the Democrat party, and who by their malicious and depraved actions over...

    The Globalist ^ | May 24, 2021 | Editors
    About 420 B.C., over 2,400 years ago, the philosopher Democritus of Abdera wrote: “To a wise man, the whole earth is open. For the native land of a good soul is the whole earth.” At The Globalist, we believe such a “wise man” or woman to be the audience we are writing for. The globalist’s watchwords: Inclusivity and curiosity Globalists are not an elite circle of business or political leaders attempting to push forward their vested interests. They are rather an inclusive and diverse group, driven by life-long curiosity. A globalist thinks deeply about the world and has a holistic...

    The historic Thurn und Taxis hunting lodge was burned down on Monday morning. Lappersdorf Volunteer Fire Department.German police are investigating whether far-left extremists from Antifa were behind a massive fire that destroyed the historic Thurn und Taxis hunting lodge near Regensburg, Bavaria earlier this week. The fire, which broke out in the early hours of Monday, reduced the 19th-century building to its outer walls and caused damage estimated at around €4 million. Authorities confirmed that a statement claiming responsibility for the arson has been posted on the far-left online platform Indymedia. The message, signed by an “Antifa Kommando,” described the...

    “Ordinary judicial proceedings become impracticable when the people paid to execute federal law coordinate to prevent its execution.” —EKO on “X”. Now, try to imagine Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker (Jabba the Pritzker) as a Confederate general, his juddering bulk astride a panting war-horse, as he gallops into battle against federal positions in Millennium Park, Chicago. . . . Yeah, in the immortal words of Homey D. Clown, I don’t think so. Yet these seem to be the fantasies typically entertained in our times by the Big Dawgs of the Democratic Party: a confederacy of dweebs. While Mr. Trump uses presidential...

    After it came to light that Jay Jones, the Democratic nominee for Virginia’s attorney general, had fantasized about killing a political opponent and his children, some were surprised that other Democrats didn’t condemn him. No one should have been surprised. Because what Jones said is a widely shared belief among Democrats these days. According to National Review, which broke the explosive Jones story, he told a colleague that “the only way public policy changes is when policymakers feel pain themselves, like the pain that parents feel when they watch their children die from gun violence.” He was referring to a...
  • Is it Time to Invoke the Insurrection Act?

    Properly executed, the Insurrection Act can bring a quicker end to hostilities and reduce property destruction, injury, and loss of life from what can ensue from lesser measures. We should never allow the complexity of America’s contemporary problems to confuse, discourage, or overwhelm us. Correcting our present course and charting our way forward is best achieved by aligning our approach and policies with timeless wisdom and principles understood and codified by the Founding Fathers. It turns out that the Constitution provides the framework, specifically the Article II, Section 2, and supremacy clause of Article 6, to put down the current...

    A crisis of democratic legitimacy in Britain: should people accept being ruled — and oppressed — by judges or “experts” without a popular mandate? The United Kingdom is facing a confluence of challenges that strike at the very heart of its democratic legitimacy, national sovereignty, and social cohesion. At issue are, not only institutional convolutions but also growing public disillusionment with how justice is administered, how power is exercised, and how British identity is being reshaped — without the explicit consent of the people. Pressing concerns are the erosion of “parliamentary sovereignty”, the rise of unaccountable judicial and bureaucratic influence,...

    The West has forgotten its Judeo-Christian values, leading to continuous lunacies. Drag queen “Aubrey Ghalichi,” whose real name is Michael Browder, was recently pulled from a Pride parade and arrested after he confessed to having sex with a 13-year-old child he met on a dating app. Bowder was charged with two counts of sexual conduct with a minor according to court records that were reviewed by KNXV-TV. During a Sept. 16 interview, Browder reportedly admitted to police that he had, in fact, had sex with the boy. However, he claimed to have believed the lad was of legal age. He...

    Public schools depend on a degree of consensus from parents and taxpayers regarding the basics of what their students are being taught. This trust is especially important in these chaotic times when many parents across the country have discovered that their schools are teaching children in a way contrary to their family and religious values by indoctrinating them with creepy views on gender and sexuality. I know of several high schools in Virginia caught in shameful gender and sexuality-related issues. Two noteworthy incidents happened in Loudoun County in very blue northern Virginia. The first involved a boy (claiming to be...

    President Trump was not a happy camper when he stepped off a faulty escalator on his way to address the United Nations General Assembly recently. By the time he had finished speaking, many in that self-important assemblage were in an even worse mood. Trump was not the only world leader firing bullets into the UN’s climate and environmental policies that heretofore have been deemed sacrosanct but are now exposed as economy killers. While China is not subject to the UN’s meddling scrutiny, Europe and Africa (and the U.S.) are. While Trump devoted the bulk of his address to foreign policy...
  • Rep. Andy Biggs Calls for Repeal of Obamacare, Calls It ‘A Complete Failure’

    Congressman Andy Biggs (R-AZ) is continuing his fight to repeal the Affordable Care Act (ACA), with the introduction of HR 114, which would “completely–and responsibly–repeal Obamacare.” Biggs has been fighting for years to repeal the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, calling it “a disaster that never worked and only led to increased premiums across the country.” One of the key issues underlying Biggs’ call for complete repeal of the ACA is that it has caused healthcare costs to skyrocket and is only affordable when it is heavily subsidized by...

    Van Jones blames “the Jews” for media silence on Nigerian massacres—but the real reason isn’t anti-Semitic conspiracy; it’s the left’s selective outrage and ideological blind spots. Van Jones, the CNN host and commentator, recently complained that neither the global left nor the mainstream media are covering the horrific violence against Nigerian civilians by Islamic terrorists. True, they are not reporting the slaughter. Truer still, they should be. However, Van Jones went completely off the rails when he blamed “the Jews.” Or as he put it, “No Jews, no news”—a stereotyped statement as anti-Semitic as it is untrue. In truth, lots...

    Manhattan Contrarian ^ | 8 Oct, 2025 | Francis Menton
    A favorite subject of mine over the years has been the New York City Housing Authority, or NYCHA. NYCHA operates hundreds of buildings housing some 500,000 people, in some 170,000 +/- apartments, mostly built from the 1950s to the 1970s. Organized on a pure socialist model of public ownership with heavily subsidized rents, NYCHA has followed the trajectory of all socialist schemes ever attempted, having gone from an excited beginning into a long, slow death spiral that has now been ongoing for at least two decades. When NYCHA was building the buildings, everyone seems to have assumed that bricks and...

    The left’s house of cards incinerates under scrutiny, and Trump lit the match. Democrat politicians and left-leaning journalists use loaded questions like weapons. Thankfully, conservatives have found a powerful model in President Donald Trump. He has inspired a new generation of fighters to push back against dishonest attacks. Conservatives have stopped playing defense, flipped the script, and gone on the offense. Directly countering the left’s playbook of preordained conclusions cherry-picked with selective facts, conservatives are increasingly using unvarnished evidence leading to clear truths. The days of polite deference are over, as Trump himself demonstrated in the Oval Office when he...
