As long as white people are obliterated, globalists are happy. In ten years, the white population percentage in London went from 86% to 36%. Now, take a look at New York City. In 1970, the white population was 60.72%. It went to 56.01% in 1980 after the 1965 Immigration Law. Today, it is 30.9%.

Chances are, you’re already aware that birthrates are falling throughout the developed world, sagging well below the “replacement rate” and sparking worries about the implications of a future dearth of workers and consumers. However, the emphasis on economic implications has allowed a powerful political undercurrent to go almost entirely unnoticed: Birthrates are varying significantly by political orientation, a trend that has the potential to shape electorates and policies for generations to come — to the benefit of conservatives.Replacement birthrates vary over time and place depending on shifts in related variables such as child mortality. In developed countries, sustaining populations without...

Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told a White House press briefing that the declining U.S. fertility rate is a "national security threat" and warned it is not high enough to ensure the American population remains stable. Kennedy was speaking to the press after President Donald Trump announced his administration had struck a new deal to reduce the costs of fertility medication. "Secretary Kennedy is sounding the alarm on a public health issue others are too timid, or too politically cautious, to confront," a Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) spokesperson told Newsweek.

Billionaire Bill Gates has dramatically changed his position on climate change, acknowledging for this first time there is no “doomsday” risk from global warming. In a memo published by Gates Notes Monday night, the Microsoft co-founder, who has poured billions into combating global warming, urged a move away from what he called a "doomsday outlook" and toward improving living conditions in developing nations. "Although climate change will have serious consequences — particularly for people in the poorest countries — it will not lead to humanity's demise," Gates wrote. "People will be able to live and thrive in most places on...

If there's any recording worth keeping of Charlie, or sharing with the likes of those who don't know what he stood for, it's this one. It's no accident that God had this speech be one of the final marks he left on earth.

"Iran and Cuba, in cooperation with each other, can bring America to its knees. The U.S. regime is very weak, and we are witnessing this weakness from close up." Fidel Castro, during his tour of Iran, Syria and Libya.

Fertility rates have plummeted worldwide over the past six decades, leading experts to warn of dire consequences as the downward trend continues.Continued low fertility rates will cause “a gradual implosion of the world’s economy as the population ages and dies,” Steven Mosher, president of the Population Research Institute, told The Epoch Times in an email. Mosher is an expert on population control, demography, and China.“This will not occur overnight, of course, but once it is well underway it will be difficult, if not impossible, to reverse course,” he said.Fertility rates (the average number of children born to a woman in...

A sharp exchange between the United States and China erupted at the United Nations this week, as China’s ambassador criticized President Donald Trump’s pro-life policies, particularly his decision to defund the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA). The confrontation highlighted deepening tensions over global abortion policies and the U.S. commitment to halting taxpayer funding for organizations linked to abortion. During a recent UN meeting, China’s ambassador accused the Trump administration of undermining women’s health by withdrawing financial support from UNFPA, an agency long criticized by pro-life advocates for its ties to China’s population control programs. “The U.S. is obstructing critical health...

After the wide-scale apoplexy induced by reports of overpopulation, an ice age, global warming, and then climate change, the apocalypse of the season may be shifting to low birth rates and population loss. In recent months, authorities no less diverse and august than Pantsuited Demographer Hillary Clinton and Hillbilly Procreationist J.D. Vance have weighed in with their preferred remedies. I regret to report that no one has suggested any politically and culturally acceptable solutions, so it is time to grin and bear it. Mr. Vance, a seemingly dedicated Europhobe, proposes an oddly Continental menu of transfer payments to parents to...

U.N. Quietly Lowers Population Forecasts ANALYSIS By Bill King - RCP ContributorJune 24, 2025 U.N. Quietly Lowers Population ForecastsAP For decades, we’ve been told that the world’s biggest problem is too many people. From Malthus in the 18th century to “The Population Bomb” in the 1960s, the warnings were dire: More people would mean more famine, more poverty, more environmental destruction. But something unexpected has happened. The demographic math has changed. And the United Nations, the world’s most cited authority on population forecasts, has taken notice. Until recently, their models predicted that the global population would continue to grow throughout...

A new Pew Research Center report shows that although Christianity continues to be the world’s largest religious group, its share of the rising global population has fallen over the last decade, mainly due to people walking away from the faith. The report, based on an analysis of 2,700 censuses and surveys, shows that the global population of Christians grew by 121.6 million people from 2010 to 2020, reaching some 2.3 billion people. As a share of the global population, estimated to be about 7.8 billion in 2020, Christians fell by 1.8 percentage points to 28.8%. The global population of Muslims,...

Russia is going after TV series Game of Thrones, Sex and the City, and the Harry Potter franchise in an effort to purge what it claims is the promotion of "childfree ideology." The development comes months after Russia passed a bill banning what state-run news wires describe as the "public propaganda of the ideas of voluntarily choosing not to have children." It comes as Russia grapples with a dwindling birth rate and as President Vladimir Putin scrambles to encourage women to have children.

A phenomenon that Elon Musk has called 'the greatest risk to the future of civilization' just got worse, according to a new study. Musk - who has 14 children with four women - has for years warned about population collapse caused by baby bust in America and the West. The consensus was that countries needed a fertility rate of 2.1 children per one woman to continue growing - a concern given that the US's is at 1.62. But now researchers say that fertility target may be too low. A new study found populations may need a fertility rate of 2.7...

After years of ominous headlines about the world's shrinking birth rates, there's a bright spot. The US birth rate increased slightly in 2024, according to preliminary data from the CDC. The 1% rise in births was largely driven by moms in their early 40s, who gave birth to 2% more children in 2024 than in 2023. Moms in their 30s and late 20s also experienced slight increases in births. Brady Hamilton, the lead author of the report, told Business Insider that the stats are a continuation of the trends of the last three decades. Women in their late 20s to...

A Southern California mayor is under fire for wanting to eliminate his city’s homeless population by giving them “all the fentanyl they want” — a shocking remark he reinforced by calling for a federal “purge.” Lancaster Mayor R. Rex Parris shared his controversial views during a Feb. 25 city council meeting when a resident took issue with the city’s attempt to address the homeless crisis by “enclosing” the unhoused at an abandoned golf course near a residential neighborhood. “What I want to do is give them free fentanyl,” Parris said as he interrupted the woman’s comments, according to footage of...

The trend among Chinese women of postponing or eschewing marriage will undermine Beijing’s efforts to boost falling birth rates, says Yi Fuxian of the University of Wisconsin-Madison.New marriages in China reportedly plummeted by one-fifth last year, implying that the official number of births will likely fall from 9.54 million in 2024 to between 7.3 million and 7.8 million in 2025. Thus, while China represents 17.2 per cent of the global population, it will account for less than 6 per cent of births – comparable to Nigeria. Moreover, China’s fertility rate in 2025 is expected to fall to 0.9 births per...

Pronatalists, a controversial fringe group almost exclusively from the political right, claims that some of the most powerful people in the US government are sympathetic to their cause. But how much influence do they really have? Simone Collins is sitting in her 18th century cottage in Pennsylvania, dressed in a black pilgrim pinafore with a wide collar, bouncing one of her four children on her lap. It is 8.30am and she looks a little tired – she runs several businesses, a foundation and is currently pregnant with her fifth child, though she and her husband Malcolm plan to have more....

All of the 10 fastest growing counties with more than 20,000 residents between 2023 and 2024 were in five states (see Table below), according to just released Census Bureau data (Texas, Georgia, Florida, South Carolina and Arizona). Nine of the 10 fastest growers were in the now dominant southeast region. Taxes are well below the median in each of these states and they are all right to work states. Four of the fastest growing counties were in Texas. Kaufman County in the Dallas-Fort Worth metropolitan area had the largest percentage increase among the metropolitan areas. The nation’s fastest growing county...

One of our current cultural mantras is “you do you” - putting your personal desires over the greater good of others and society. In other words, living selfishly instead of selflessly.The manifestation of such a philosophy and its implications for our society is particularly acute when it comes to the institutions of marriage and family.As the late James Q. Wilson, former professor of government at Harvard University, wrote in his book, “The Marriage Problem”: “It is not money, but the family that is the foundation of public life. As it has become weaker, every structure built upon that foundation has...

Marriages in China plummeted by a fifth last year, the biggest drop on record, despite manifold efforts by authorities to encourage young couples to wed and have children to boost the country's declining population. Declining interest in getting married and starting a family has long been blamed on the high cost of childcare and education in China. On top of that, sputtering economic growth over the past few years has made it difficult for university graduates to find work and those that do have jobs feel insecure about their long-term prospects. More than 6.1 million couples registered for marriage last...
