Free Republic

report in July 2024. Guest Post by Miriam Judith The Club of Rome and the Council for the Human Future published a report on a roundtable discussion on the human future on August 1, 2024. The Club of Rome defines itself as a nonprofit, informal organization of intellectuals and business leaders founded in 1968 whose goal is a critical discussion of pressing global issues. The organization consists of 100 full members selected from current and former heads of state and government. The fact that the group focuses on global warming tells you something about the intellectual capacity and integrity of...

And hates free speech, free markets, self-government, and world peace! Right now, the United Kingdom is barreling toward totalitarianism. After a second-generation immigrant reportedly murdered several children in a vicious stabbing attack last week, native Brits took to the streets to denounce their country’s criminally dangerous open borders. If these outraged citizens had been members of Antifa, the press would have compassionately framed their actions as “mostly peaceful protests” deserving of praise. Instead, because the public’s fury is directed toward one of globalism’s sacred cows — mass migration — angry parents have been condemned for fomenting “violent riots.” Protecting children...

This election season, the Democrats have again descended into a quagmire of duplicity, lies, mindless name-calling, and one-upmanship. In response, the Republicans, including the Trump campaign, are predictably and foolishly initiating their own campaigns of name-calling and one-upmanship. In the meantime, the vast majority of Americans remain on the sidelines, watching the food fight. As a result, far too many fail to understand the threat the Democrat party, controlled by the Obama-led Marxist faction, poses to the country. In order to win in November, Donald Trump, his campaign surrogates, Republican candidates, and Republican party activists must single-mindedly focus on the...

President Biden has agreed to step aside, but not to go quietly. In remarks from the Oval Office on Wednesday, he said in his final months “I’m going to call for Supreme Court reform, because this is critical to our democracy.” What a last spasm by a lame duck, demanding a rewrite of the American founding that Kamala Harris will have to defend or disavow. The specifics await Mr. Biden’s announcement, but the presidential brainstorm has leaked to the press. News reports say Mr. Biden may push for term limits on the Justices, an “enforceable” ethics code, and a constitutional...

No ideology in modern history has failed more drastically and with greater damage than leftism, yet in America and abroad, the new leftists march on, undeterred by the past. Perhaps the most significant factor contributing to the Soviet Union’s collapse was a resolute commitment to the infallibility of socialist ideology, coupled with its continued application long after its obvious failure. The failure to learn history and, by extension, internalize the lessons from this dark period is what enables our modern-day Marxists (whom we refer to as “leftists” or “progressives”) to believe that they can somehow avoid the consequences of the...

COMMENT: A friend of mine insisted I read you because you have real experience. I tuned in only so I could argue with my friend. I raise the white flag. You said they would only allow Biden to be on the ticket and nobody else because he would drop out after the RNC event, and they would draft someone for August. You said we do not live in a democracy but a republic, and we are no different than Russia giving 71-year-old ladies prison time for a protest. I guess that is like Russia. You even said they would try...

As the 2024 Republican National Convention kicked off in downtown Milwaukee, a group of anti-Trump and anti-GOP organizers began a showing conservatives how unwelcome they really are. The self-proclaimed anti-fascists, pro-Palestinians protestors, LBGTQ advocates, communists and more gathered blocks away from the RNC HQ at Fiserv Forum for the 'March on RNC 2024,' Monday afternoon. **SNIP** ‘I hate the Republican party, I’ll say that,’ Anthony, an attendee from the Milwaukee area, exclusively told DailyMail.com. When pressed on what he hates most, Anthony said how the party champions capitalism, adding, ‘Most of the people in the country aren't on your side,...

The Homeland Intelligence Experts Group convened by the Department of Homeland Security, disbanded under a settlement with America First Legal, called President Biden an "ineffective messenger" for the group's surreptitious campaign to convince the public that supporters of former President Trump are the bulk of "domestic violent extremists."The disclosure was made in AFL's latest dribbling out of screenshots of the internal meeting notes from the group, which included two Obama administration proponents of the Trump-Russia collusion hoax, CIA Director John Brennan and Director of National Intelligence James Clapper.Previous disclosures in the #DeepStateDiaries series showed the group proposed a reboot of...

The same bureau that investigated the Las Vegas shooting and the January 6th pipe bombs is now investigating the attempted assassination of Trump. This is also the same bureau that raided Mar-a-Lago. I’m sure they’ll get to the bottom of this soon.

The Daily Caller reports:A Department of Homeland Security (DHS) advisory board characterized supporters of former President Donald Trump, as well as those who are in the military and religious people, as posing potential domestic terrorism risks, according to internal documents obtained by America First Legal (AFL).The board, called the “Homeland Intelligence Experts Group,” was created in September 2023 to provide DHS with “expert” analysis on subjects such as terrorism and fentanyl trafficking. The panel included former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, former CIA Director John Brennan and former CIA Operations Officer Paul Kolbe.Do those names ring a bell? They...
