  • How Trump’s Allies Are Winning the War Over Disinformation

    In the wake of the riot on Capitol Hill on Jan. 6, 2021, a groundswell built in Washington to rein in the onslaught of lies that had fueled the assault on the peaceful transfer of power. Social media companies suspended Donald Trump, then the president, and many of his allies from the platforms they had used to spread misinformation about his defeat and whip up the attempt to overturn it. President Joe Biden’s administration, Democrats in Congress and even some Republicans sought to do more to hold the companies accountable. Academic researchers wrestled with how to strengthen efforts to monitor...

    Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) hit Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday for how he is running Israel amid its war with the militant group Hamas. Sanders has repeatedly called on the U.S. to halt its military aid to Israel, citing the humanitarian crisis that has been unfolding in Gaza for months. He reiterated his call for an end to funding Israel on CBS’s “Face the Nation” on Sunday.
  • How a right-wing Canadian rapper 'trolled' the Billboard charts by going to No. 1 [feat. Ben Shapiro]

    Facts, by Tom MacDonald, is currently No. 1 on two Billboard charts; Rap Digital Song Sales and R&B/Hip Hop Digital Song Sales. Released on Jan. 26, Facts has blown past the genre’s usual stalwarts, pulling ahead of artists such as Megan Thee Stallion and Doja Cat... MacDonald has scored hit songs before, but he got to No. 1 with Facts thanks in large part to his collaborator on the song, popular conservative podcast host Ben Shapiro... Shapiro, a classically trained violinist, has often been a vocal critic of rap and hiphop music — routinely reserving segments of his podcast to...
  • CNN’s Chalian: We Thought of Immigration As ‘Right-Wing Echo Chamber’ Issue Until Abbott Made Blue Areas Feel It

    On Wednesday’s broadcast of “CNN News Central,” CNN Political Director David Chalian stated that “We normally think of” immigration as “just an issue for the right-wing echo chamber.” But now that Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) has brought “the migrant issue and crisis to cities, to blue states and cities, that has changed the calculus” on the issue. Chalian said, “Tom Suozzi was advertising with him on Fox News talking about his full defense of ICE. So, not every Democrat runs on the immigration issue the way Tom Suozzi did in this district. It worked for him there. There does...
  • Putin’s twitchy leg makes return during rambling Tucker Carlson interview

    Vladimir Putin once again appeared to be unable to control a twitchy leg during his lengthy interview with US right-wing journalist Tucker Carlson earlier this week. The Russian president spent half an hour of the sit-down chat on an almost uninterrupted ramble covering 1,200 years of Eastern European history. But some viewers were distracted by his apparent need to physically push down his knee to prevent his leg from moving around. It’s been an odd habit of Putin’s for a while – stretching back at least as far as September 2022, when the appendage started twitching during a speech in...
  • Leftists Call for Killing of Right-Wing Voters at ‘Anti-Extremism’ Protest in Germany

    Left-wing protesters in Germany called for supporters of the populist Alternative for Germany (AfD) party to be killed during a rally against political extremism. Amid nationwide protests over the weekend, in which organisers claimed over a million people rallied against the right-wing AfD party, it was ironically the left which seemingly exposed itself as harbouring extremists. A report from the left-liberal Aachener Zeitung newspaper on Sunday hailed the local demonstration in the North Rhine-Westphalian city of Aachen against the AfD, which it claimed saw around 10,000 people attend.
  • What I realized about the liberal arguement that fascism is a right=wing belief system.

    Liberals are constantly saying that fascism is a right-wing belief system, because that's how the university education system allocated it. We both know that's bs, because Mussolini and Gentile were quite clear that they were creating a socialist political system that has all the markings of left-wing socialism. When somebody says that fascism is right-wing, they are not defining it as right-wing objectively, but subjectively. Relative to themselves because they are to the left of fascism, making them communists or that thin sliver that sits between communism and fascism. However, it doesn't matter. What I realized is that they are...

    WATERTOWN, SD — As mainstream media reports circulated that maintaining physical fitness is a sign of far-right extremism, a spokesperson for the Federal Bureau of Investigation disclosed that the agency already has a surveillance team closely monitoring what is believed to be a local fascist training facility. "This place just cranks out dangerous right-wing nutjobs," said one source within the FBI who requested to remain anonymous. "It may be located in a shopping mall, and the people coming in and out look like normal, law-abiding citizens…but with how physically fit they all appear to be, there is every indication that...

    I just listened to a Jordan Peterson video, and while I think he is perhaps the intellectual heir to the retired Thomas Sowell (if you disagree with this, please do not too caustic in your rebutal comments), he stated something in the video that made me question the meaning of far right and far left.

    At the national level, parties insist they won’t work or vote with the far-right AfD—but at the local level, it happens all the time.Ever since the populist far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party came onto the country’s political scene, there has been an explicit taboo among the other parties against collaborating with it. Leaders of the five main other parties in Germany’s Bundestag—the center-left Social Democratic Party, the conservative Christian Democratic Union (CDU)/Christian Social Union bloc, the Greens, the pro-business Free Democratic Party, and the Left party—have vowed not to work with the AfD in any form, erecting what they...

    The Tel Aviv municipality has refused to authorize a right-wing counter-protest this Saturday night in addition to the left-wing anti-government protests which have been held for the last few weeks in the city, the JDN Hebrew news site reported. The right-wing protestors are hoping to demonstrate in support of Justice Minister Yariv Levin's proposed judicial reforms and Shas chairman Aryeh Deri, who was disqualified from serving as a minister One activist said: "They are trying to shut us up, only the leftists are allowed to demonstrate. Isn't our voice equal?" The activists are currently seeking to be allowed to demonstrate...
  • Is Italy’s Next Prime Minister, Giorgia Meloni, A ‘Fascist’? Hardly

    The Federalist ^ | 09/27/2022 | David Harsanyi
    The Italian right is illiberal within the normal illiberal standards of modern Europe. Giorgia Meloni, as you’ve doubtlessly heard, is the “far-right” next prime minister of Italy. So says virtually every news outlet in the United States. And anyone familiar with the left’s perfunctory use of “ultra-conservative,” “far-right,” “hard-right,” or “semi-fascist” to describe those who take positions to the right of the Democratic Party’s latest platform, should be skeptical. Then again, trying to decipher European elections through the prism of American politics is a frustrating endeavor. But here is a cataloging, as best as I can pull together, of...

    Less than a day after it was revealed that 20-year-old TikTok star and head of the "Youth on Fire" party, Hadar Muchtar, owns a residential apartment in Haifa, which she claims belongs to her parents, the chairman of the "Youth on Fire" party announced this morning that she will no longer give interviews to members of the media "until further notice." Following a series of unflattering TV appearances, Muchtar wrote on her social media page: "I'm not doing anymore interviews. I don't believe in the established media. I am here to make a change, but the media is constantly trying...

    Representative Vicente Gonzalez (D-TX) said Thursday on CNN’s “The Lead” that both Govs. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) and Gregg Abbott (R-TX) were “right-wing nutjob governors.” Anchor Jake Tapper said, “Governor DeSantis and your governor, Governor Abbott sent these migrants with no heads-up to officials in Martha’s Vineyard, or D.C., no heads-up to those who might provide care for them, provide them with food, health care. We see a lot of kids in these pictures. What’s your response to this? Is this a good way to protest the country’s failing immigration policies?”

    Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett has not ruled out sitting with MKs Benjamin Netanyahu (Likud), Bezalel Smotrich (Religious Zionism), and Itamar Ben Gvir (Otzma Yehudit), but opposes the formation for a "fully" right-wing government. In an interview with Channel 13 News, Bennett said, "A fully right-wing government, in the current sense, is, in my eyes, a disaster, because it does not have the balances." He added, "Netanyahu, Bezalel, and Ben Gvir...in a different constellation, can be fine, but a government trapped in the hands of the extreme is horrible and awful, even if it is the other side." .....

    (I changed the picture, the original was a Getty which we can't post)Gigi Sohn, the Biden Administration’s nomination for FCC commissioner, has attended a partisan event touting an FCC-led breakup of Sinclair Broadcasting Group’s “right wing propaganda machine,” adding to mounting evidence that the nominee is hopelessly partisan. The appointee would break the current 2-2 FCC tie in favor of the Democrats While FCC commissioners have a party affiliation, with two Democrat commissioners, two Republican commissioners, and one chair position typically held by whichever party holds the White House, commissioners are expected to remain relatively non-partisan in their outlook on...

    German Federal Minister of the Interior Nancy Faeser says children in kindergarten should be taught about the dangers of right-wing extremism, but she didn’t mention left-wing extremism or Islam.“We have to smash right-wing extremist networks,” Faeser told the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung newspaper. “The state of law must not accept calls for murder and threats.” The minister went on to assert that children as young as three years old should be socially engineered to be averse to right-wing radicalism. “We are resolutely combating this breeding ground for violence, but the fight against right-wing extremism starts much earlier, namely with good educational...

    More than half of Americans view right-wing militia groups as a threat to the U.S., with a third saying they pose an "immediate and serious threat" to the country, according to a poll from The Economist/YouGov. The poll was taken following the first anniversary of the Jan. 6 insurrection, when Trump supporters stormed the Capitol in an effort to prevent Congress from certifying the results of the 2020 election. Members of known right-wing extremist groups including the Oath Keepers, the Proud Boys and the Three-Percenters, have been charged in connection with the attack.
  • When your New World Order plans call for an Extremist Right Wing group and you don’t have one, you create your own. The American Nazi Party was created by the Deep State in the late 1950’s to sow domestic terror and doubt.

    The infiltration of right leaning groups or creation of groups like the Proud Boys or Oath Keepers by Federal Agencies would not be anything new. The American Nazi Party was founded in 1959 by George Lincoln Rockwell. The effort originally began in late 1957 or early 1958 when Rockwell met a financial sponsor (“fat-cat”) named Harold Noel Arrowsmith Jr. George Lincoln Rockwell is still pretty well known. If you watch the Amazon Series “The Man in the High Castle”, the Nazi Commandant for North America is named “George Lincoln Rockwell.” (The real Rockwell was assassinated in Virginia in 1967.) There...
