For the second time in as many months, Donald Trump has survived an assassination attempt. Progressives have leaned heavily into the idea that Trump is responsible for the attacks on his own life, doubling down on their rhetorical justifications. The Left has decided that political violence should be a regular feature of American life and that only one side should ever be allowed to wield it.  Fol...

A strange coalition of disaffected liberals, classic conservatives, libertarians, and the New Right have found common cause in the battle against the woke hegemony, but the contradictions inside that coalition have begun to create serious fractures. What is the state of the anti-woke coalition, and can the factions put aside their differences to defeat a common foe? Podcaster Benjamin Boyce joins...

Crime has skyrocketed, health and educational services are overwhelmed, and some residents have even reported their pets being abducted and possibly consumed. With just a few months before the presidential election, Springfield, Ohio, has become the personification of everything wrong with the radical replacement migration policy that the Democrats have enacted while controlling the White House. F...

The United Kingdom is a parliamentary democracy that is jailing its citizens for disagreeing with mass immigration. The United States is a constitutional republic that is importing foreign gangs to take over its cities and attacking anyone who complains as a racist. At the same time, El Salvador President Nayib Bukele is considered a strongman who is using his authority to rid his nation of violen...

The progressive movement has a mainstream core that achieves most of the practical political wins, but it also accepts a much more radical constellation of leftist beliefs. Leftists regularly portray themselves as open communists, violent Antifa foot soldiers, and revolutionary queer activists and are still accepted inside the movement. In contrast, the most dangerous threat to an up-and-coming ri...

Videos depicting more traditional modes of life have become huge trends on social media, but does this signal a real hunger for a return to past forms of social organization? Can the algorithm train a new generation to embrace tradition, or does the medium destroy the message?

Despite the admission that government actors used censorship to interfere in the 2020 election and silence dissent during the pandemic, no one faces criminal prosecution, and no one is getting fired.

New footage has shown the extent to which NASA has been infected by DEI ideology, which has radically impacted the focus and effectiveness of an organization that has currently stranded two astronauts in outer space. NASA is far from alone as many scientific organizations have abandoned the basic biological reality of males and females to conform to political demands. We take a look at why Oswald...

Democrats are portraying their new vice presidential pick as America's dad, but the Minnesota governor has a disastrous record and a dangerous ideology.

Kamala Harris is an embarrassing human being. After running an abysmal presidential campaign where she failed to win a single primary, the California senator was placed on the Biden ticket to fulfill the demographic requirements set forth by progressive ideology. The media has now relaunched Harris as a charismatic social media icon, and the bizarre thing is that many conservatives seem to have fa...
