Democrats don't just want to "tax the rich" - they want to tear down the very systems that make it possible to get rich in the first place. This November, voters in California will decide whether to enact a first-in-the-nation wealth tax of five percent on every resident whose net worth exceeds $1 billion. Polls show a tight battle – but even if the measure fails, it is unlikely to deter Democrats’ escalating war on wealth that should alarm every American. It’s hardly breaking news that Democrats want to raise taxes to pay for expensive social programs. But in recent...

The reported DSA-linked planning treats the Insurrection Act as a trap that works only if Trump walks into it on their timetable and terms. Over on X, DataRepublican’s reporting on documents and recordings from the Democratic Socialists of America and allied networks lays out a calculated strategy for the run-up to the 2028 elections. The goal is sustained mass violence and street clashes designed to push President Donald Trump into invoking the Insurrection Act. Once invoked, Democratic governors and progressive organizations would treat the order itself as evidence of “fascism” and a reason to undermine federal authority. Groups including the...

Beloved, within a hundred years, demonic Marxism has taken over this planet in one form or another and is today EXPONENTIALLY abounding in all facets of life.

A Minnesota rapper who traveled to France to join escalating riots has urged white people to “raise hell” and “f–k s–t up” as part of a revolution on American soil, The Post discovered. And communist-linked groups in the US may be working to bring that hell to the nation’s capital. Artist Tufawon, whose real name is Rafael Gonzalez Jr., joined Swedish activist Greta Thunberg outside Paul Éluard, the high school at the heart of the leftist protests marred by violence, looting and arson. He addressed balaclava-clad protesters before performing his song “No One Is Illegal,” and riling up the crowd...

How about that? I'm going with a French title for today's post. By the way, speaking Spanish does not really help me understand French. Italian yes, but French sounds like Russian to me. As you've heard many times, watch out for the October Surprise, a late-breaking event that impacts, one way or another, our elections. Remember the 2004 terrorist attacks against schoolchildren in Russia that put terror on the front pages? Remember the 2008 "bank crisis" that derailed the McCain campaign? These two surprises had a lot to do with reelecting President Bush and unfortunately electing Senator Obama. The October...

Police have lost control in the streets of France as Jewish business, synogogues, and homes are targeted. Roaming bands of Muslims and communists are armed with AK47s and Scorpion submachine guns as the BBC claims the protests are “mostly peaceful.” France has fallen.As images streamed of France literally on fire, the BBC took a page out of the Black Lives Matter/George Floyd riots reporting in America and unbelievably called the protests “mostly peaceful.” This occurred as rioters roamed the streets armed with AK47s and Scorpion submachine guns. Nothing to see here… in planned attacks, the Muslim migrants and communists targeted...

France is burning and the police are doing almost nothing to stop it. Will the military be called out? Doubtful unless LePen is elected.

A protester's hand was blown off by a police crowd-control grenade on Saturday as the nationwide demonstrations against the higher cost of living and school conditions turned violent.

Muslim communist New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani officially receivd his federal security clearance this week. It’s unthinkable that such a stone-cold national security threat would be given access to classified intel when he has deep doumented terrorist ties and has deeper allegiances with our enemies than America herself. This is sheer suicidal insanity. It’s official… America has lost her ever-loving mind. It’s unfathomable, but Muslim communist New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has officially been granted a federal security clearance, giving the Jihadist a green light to spread his venom even further. Mamdani is an apocalyptic Twelver, has met...

Joe Scarborough and Bernie Sanders: same struggle! The Morning Joe host sounds ever more like the socialist guy ranting, in his inimitable Brooklyn accent, about "millionaires and billionaires." On today's show, Scarborough went off on Trump's claim that, thanks to him, people have gotten richer. Scarborough pointedly distinguished between billionaires and "working" Americans. Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

Just weeks out from the November midterm elections, a socialist insurgency appears to be taking the Democrat Party by storm. But instead of honestly reporting on this shocking and newsworthy development, the liberal media is instead criticizing Republicans for noticing it. That was the upshot of a New York Times story earlier this month titled “Seeking Jolt, G.O.P. Turns to a New Red Scare.” (Perhaps because of backlash, the Times changed the headline on the online version of the article). The piece cites the warnings of numerous prominent Republicans, such as House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) and No. 2 House...

Our educated class is the class that lives furthest from the market economy. ast week I had some fun here with the economic nonsense of our DSA kiddies. For instance, DSA Wunderkind Mamdani proposed for New York City: - Free and fast city buses - Rent freeze - Free universal child care - Public groceries - Taxing the wealthy Today I propose that Adam Smith’s notion of the “invisible hand” is the economic equivalent of Albert Einstein’s E = mc2. Because Smith changed our understanding of the world in the same way that Einstein did. The idea that the point...

The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy is not a publication most would be familiar with. It is meant as a repository of overviews of big topics in philosophy broadly defined, inclusive of political theory. As such, entries added to it are unlikely to generate strong responses by the experts deeply familiar with each individual entry. Every rule has exceptions though.Image Credit: Custom image by FEE Recently, Chiara Cordelli, a political philosopher at the University of Chicago, delivered her "three years in the making" commissioned piece on "capitalism." The piece went viral. The reason that it sparked such attention is that it...

DALLAS, TX — In his keynote speech at the 2026 RNC Midterm Convention, President Donald Trump pledged that if voters defeat socialism in November, they will each get an equal redistribution of wealth from the government. Trump detailed his plan to take money from taxpayers, divide it up into equal $5,000 shares, and redistribute it to every citizen if they would simply vote to keep socialism at bay. "Socialism is so dangerous, it's terrifying, really. We have to stop it by whatever means necessary, even if it means redistributing everyone's wealth," explained Trump. "What we'll do is we'll take everyone's...

Sun Tzu made an observation, some 2,500 years ago, that modern coalition politics seems to have taken to heart, though no one credits him for it. Paraphrased loosely: an army does not need every soldier to want the same outcome. It needs them moving in the same direction until the battle is won. The Red and the Green appear to have absorbed the lesson without ever reading the book. Almost nobody asks what happens once the battle ends and there's no shared enemy left to hold the army together. The Red is the socialist left. The Green is political Islam....

The United Nations has decided that Britain has not grovelled enough. After years of toppled statues, boarded-up war memorials and official lectures about “colonialism,” a UN human-rights committee now wants the country that ended the Atlantic slave trade to fill its public squares with statues of “people of African descent,” The globalist body also suggests Britain should rewrite what children are taught, and treat historic slavery as a live brief for migration policy and hate-speech enforcement. This comes in the form of formal “reparatory justice” guidance from the UN Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, published six months after...

The Democratic Socialists of America have been growing in power within the Democratic Party, most notably by capturing a number of Democrat nominations in the 2026 primaries, though it’s important to remember that they already hold plenty of seats in public office. They aren’t a new phenomenon in 2026, it’s just that they are now receiving substantial public notice in 2026. A very different thing. In fact, the Democratic Socialists of America – essentially the borderless movement of global communism – have been making inroads in the Democratic Party for generations, but only recently have they felt comfortable dropping the...

The Naked Communist by W. Cleon SkousenI have spent the last several months working intensively on completing the dictation of an audiobook that is available as a free down on the reputable site Librivox.org, which is partnered with Gutenberg.org, a global repository for books that are not covered under international copyright laws (whether those books were printed before copyright law as we know it existed, or if a sufficient time has passed, and the copyright has expired.)

They’re baaack. “They” being communists, or for the academics, Marxists. Hairsplitting. Communism is the implementation of the ideology Karl Marx advanced in his 1848 thesis, “The Communist Manifesto.” The resurgence started with intersectionality, cultural demands, and the redefinition of words like racism, gender, and homeless. Aided by funding from the Chinese Communist Party, and the growth of organizations like the Democratic Socialists of America, the far left added violence and dismantling capitalism. Today, radical leftists pursue the full communist agenda, fused with antisemitism and radical Islam. Turn up your nose at the Red Menace, but during the 20th century, communists...
