(American Mind) What some mainstream conservatives and pundits aren’t considering, given our bleak 2024 electoral landscape (unresolved DNC-sponsored mass mail-in voting; an open border with millions of people streaming across it; an administrative state and media complex actively colluding and working against the people) is that Trump’s era was, and probably is, the last time flyover country will ever see executive representation in Washington again.
(Revolver) You never see those commercials anymore or his Copper Fit ones. Favre has lost his endorsements because of lies from the press. They accuse him of stealing welfare funds. The Huffington Post called Brett a “welfare queen,” and wrote, “This wealthy football player stole welfare money to build a volleyball center for his kid.” Deadspin said Favre “stole from poor Black people in Mississippi.”
(NPR) The Codex Sassoon, a leather-bound, handwritten parchment volume containing a nearly complete Hebrew Bible, was purchased by former U.S. Ambassador to Romania Alfred H. Moses on behalf of the American Friends of ANU and donated to ANU Museum of the Jewish People in Tel Aviv, where it will join the collection, Sotheby's said in statement.
(Spectator) “Negative partisanship” is a notorious feature of American politics. In presidential elections especially, voters don’t vote for the party and candidate they like; they vote against the party and candidate they fear. This is one reason third-party politics is a waste of time. If voters want to prevent the worst outcome, they will always choose the most viable alternative over the best alternative.
(The Telegraph) Yevgeny Prigozhin’s latest bombast against the Russian MOD and, by inference, the Kremlin itself, should not be seen as just another rant from a blowhard with a track record. His extraordinary threats of internal violence – “mobs with pitchforks” – and even revolution are a stark indicator of just how serious things are getting behind the scenes for Putin’s regime.
(Unz Review) What makes Paul Craig Roberts’ writing so powerful, is his ability to cut through false narratives and identify the elite agendas that are shaping events. This is the work of a truth-teller which is the designation that is typically applied to Roberts. The term refers to a person of deep moral convictions who devotes his life to exposing the lies and fabrications of the state and its corrupt allies.
(Big League Politics) The RJC is particularly incensed by how several Republican members of the US House and Senate are beginning to mount effective resistance against continued streams of military aid being sent to Ukraine.
(Gateway Pundit) McFarland continued, “Go back to 2020. It was the CIA this time that got involved in the 2020 election with those 51 former intel agents who talked about the Hunter Biden laptop as total Russian disinformation.”
(Renegade Tribune) While there were sporadic eruptions of violence against jews in Germany after Hitler came to power, this was not officially sanctioned or encouraged. And the truth is that anti-jewish sentiments in Germany (or elsewhere in Europe) were actually nothing new. As all jewish historians attest with much fervor, anti-semitic uprisings of various degrees had been ever-present in European history.
(Paul Craig Roberts) The Special Counsel’s vindication of Donald Trump and denunciation of the FBI for conducting a politically motivated investigation devoid of any evidence should collapse the equally fraudulent Biden regime investigation of Trump on fake documents charges and the New York state prosecution of Trump on alleged expense misreporting charges.
(Affirmative Right) Russian "Victory Day" is fast approaching. This is the time of the year when the Kremlin tried to hijack history and pretend that WWII was entirely won by the Soviets. The facts, of course, tell quite a different story.
(American Greatness) The past does not provide a window overlooking the future, exactly; nothing short of clairvoyance can promise that. Nor is it even quite true, as George Santayana famously remarked, that “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” (I recently had something to say about that in this space.)
(Unz Review) The new Israeli government is by far the most radically right in its history—and that’s saying a lot. As a result, there have been a number of protests against Israel and Zionism both in Israel and on American college campuses recently. These are likely to increase in number and intensity because of the new government which is the result of a long process of demographic change resulting from the high fertility of Orthodox and strongly ethnonationalist Jews.
(Real Clear Politics) What follows is an investigation into what happened to that anticipated red wave. Since the analysis is involved and lengthy, this synopsis is provided up front. Both real and publicly perceived conditions before and up to Election Day provided all the ingredients for a very good Republican year. That red wave had formed, was within sight and headed to shore, but never made it. What happened?
(NY Post) Donald Trump is the political equivalent of George Foreman — a giant, bruising brawler who destroys opponents with brute force. It’s a technique that powered him to the White House in 2016, nearly powered him into staying there in 2020, and is powering him toward the White House again now. But he’s about to face his own Rumble in the Jungle-style fight with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and DeSantis is showing every sign of being the opponent Trump fears most: one who can soak up his punches and knock him out.
(ZeroHedge) The big question facing the Fed is whether they should increase the Fed Funds rate by 25bps or 50bps on March 22, 2023. If Jerome Powell cared for our advice, we would tell him to take the opposite approach of President Theodore Roosevelt. Speak loudly because your stick isn’t that big anymore.
(National File) Screenshots of the Patriot Front’s now-banned Twitter account show the account was originally created under a false identity. A majority of the account’s followers were left-wing influencers and journalists. Many questions have also arisen after videos have shown DC Police escorting Patriot Front around the city, and giving its members exclusive access to metro train cars.
(Haaretz) Netanyahu again promised far-right minister Itamar Ben-Gvir he would command a newly-established National Guard, but Israel's police force is skeptical, if not uneasy, about a separate, competing law enforcement agency.
(Government Technology) The ADL is concerned that many of the attitudes, beliefs and conspiracy-driven narratives of violent extremism are emerging from the darkness and repeated as truth, in public for all to hear.
(Arkansas Democrat Gazette) I ran through, for the retiree class, a few of the contradictory interpretive headlines in respectable newspapers on the Durham Report. That's the document summarizing the findings of special counsel John Durham's investigation into whether the Justice Department sought to sabotage Donald Trump's presidential campaign in 2016 on allegations of collusion with Russia.
