Most notably, Islam and its effects on Classical Civilization, and various forms of leftism from Soviet era communism, to postmodernism and all the flavours of galloping statism and totalitarianism such as Nazism and Fascism which are increasingly snuffing out the classical liberalism which created our near, miraculous civilization the West has been building since the time of Socrates.

This document was written around the time this site was created, for those who wish to understand what this site is about. And while our understanding of the world and events has grown since then, the basic ideas remain sound and true to the purpose.

So please post all links, thoughts and ideas that you feel will benefit the readers of this site to the comments under this post each day. And thank you all for your contributions.

  2. At 13:39 of this interview of Hungarian Foreign Minister by Chinese media, Peter Szijjarto refers to a Hungarian/Chinese “all-weather” relationship. Why does Hungary want an all-weather relationship with this communist country, and what does “all-weather” mean?

    Competent diplomats use measured language. Throw-away lines don’t exist, particularly when PM Orban used the same expression the day before when interviewed by the same journalist.

    All weather means bad weather. It doesn’t mean fake pandemics or climate change because we know China does not believe in these things. These are exclusively theaters of the absurd reserved for western consumption. Dismissing all globalist histrionics we get war. The clearest predicate of war is economics because sanctions, uncontrolled debt, currency controls, trade blockades and balances of trade–such as the ‘imbalances’ the U.S. currently accuses China of creating–come from loss of market share. And it doesn’t seem to matter that the U.S. is responsible for its own market failures. All-weather friendship translates to continuing trade during world war.

    Still, why does Hungary see the need to cultivate a relationship with such a dangerous enemy as Red China? It could be corruption, but this is too small a fish for such a big move. Could it be that Hungary see an even greater threat when it looks west?

    • To the point I made above, the west behaves irrationally unless its rationale is self destruction, which Hungary does not wish to share in.

    • The hypocritical lunatics at the far-left Washington Post are demanding we do something they never would — take cold showers to save Mother Earth.

      When I first saw the headline for this anti-science piece of nonsense—“Why you should embrace using cold water, almost all the time” — I assumed the Post would stick to things like dishwashers and washing machines. No way would they demand we take cold showers, I foolishly assumed. That would be a ridiculous request, a bridge too far, a way to get laughed off the planet.

      Brother, was I wrong.

      • Dear Leader would never take a cold shower. It would make him appear even more emasculated than he already is.

  7. The father of murdered Israeli concert-goer Shani Louk appeared Monday night at a pro-Israel rally in Times Square, where he said the enduring image of her lifeless body being paraded around by Hamas terrorists illustrates the “darkness” the Jewish state is fighting against.

    Nissim Louk told The Post that before-and-after photos of his 23-year-old German Israeli daughter on Oct. 7 — which appeared in countless newspapers the next day — emphasize what’s at stake in the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas.

  12. New report: Trucking industry firm finds a transition to ‘electric’ semis hikes operating costs as much as 114%
    By Olivia Murray
    What would it look like for you and your family to pay even more than what you’re already paying at the grocery store check-out line? (Grocery prices have increased more than 30% since Joe Biden took office.) What about at the gas pump? Anything you buy online that is then shipped to your home?

    Now, the cost-of-living crisis is already a debilitating burden for countless Americans, but as bad as it is now, it’s fixing to get a whole lot worse if the forced transition to electric vehicles continues; those mandates and regulations don’t just apply to personal vehicles, but also the 18-wheelers that transport so much of what we consumers buy.

    Because…according to a new report out from Ryder, a leading trucking industry firm, “transitioning” these diesel trucks to electric semis raises operating costs by as much as 114%. Here’s the story, from an analysis by Naveen Athrappully at The Epoch Times:

  16. WAYNE ROOT: If You’re Paying Attention, Biden Just Told Us How Democrats Plan to Rig & Steal 2024 Election.

    Biden did it again.

    A feeble, decrepit, brain-dead, old man with dementia and diapers is running the country. Have you heard?

    And people with dementia often “spill the beans.” They have no filter. So, they act like little kids- they say whatever is on their mind. Secrets come spilling out.

    Pay attention to Joe Biden. He has dementia and belongs in a nursing home, not the White House. So, sometimes secrets come spilling out of his decrepit mouth.

    How a Faith-Based Company is Changing the Way Americans Protect Their Retirement

    The secret to how Democrats planned to beat Trump in the 2020 presidential election came spilling out of Biden’s decrepit mouth during the 2020 campaign.

    Neuropathy is not from Low vitamin B. Meet the Real Enemy of Neuropathy (Stop Doing This)

    If only we had listened and acted.

    Biden said (and I quote word), “We have put together, I think, the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of American politics.”

    Oops.

    That was on October 24, 2020. Don’t believe me? Watch here:

    Biden spilled the beans. He told us how Democrats were going to win. They were going to rig and steal the election with voter fraud.

    And they did.

    They used mail-in ballots with no Voter ID; ballot drop boxes with no oversight; ballot harvesting- a scam that is illegal in every other country in the world; no signature match; and millions of illegal aliens voted too. Without Voter ID and no one asking about citizenship at the polls, it’s easy.

    That’s exactly how the 2020 election was stolen. Old decrepit dementia puppet Biden told us what they planned to do, and they did it.

    Biden said, “VOTER FRAUD.” Why didn’t anyone listen?

    Well, old decrepit Joe has done it again. So, this time we’d better listen and take action. Because out of the mouths of little children, and decrepit old men with dementia, comes truth.

    During an interview with a Spanish radio station last week, Biden referred to millions of illegal alien foreign invaders as “Hispanic voters.”

    There it is. That’s the Democrat plan to steal the 2024 presidential election.

    Biden also said two other telling things. He said that speaking Spanish is “America’s Future.” And he said the millions of illegal aliens who have crossed his open border into America are “the only reason our economy’s so good.”

    Oh my God.

    Out of “the mouth of babes” comes truth. This is the Democrat’s new updated plan to intentionally destroy America. Biden just told you.

    Trump is leading by a landslide. Blacks, legal Latinos, young voters- everyone hates Biden. Everyone hates “Bidenomics” and this crappy economy. Everyone hates Biden’s massive inflation. Everyone hates the direction of America.

    Polls show Biden is the most unpopular president in 70 years- worse than even Carter or Nixon. His approval on the economy and inflation is the lowest in modern history.

    Trending: “Attorney-Client Privilege Out the Door with This Guy” – Scumbag Michael Cohen Plays Secret Recording of Conversation He Had with Trump in NYC Courtroom (VIDEO)

    And that’s why Trump is leading by double digits in the most recent reliable polls. And winning all the battleground states- including my home state of Nevada by 12 points and Georgia by 10. The latest AARP poll also shows Trump pulling away in Pennsylvania.

    James Carville, one of the most brilliant political strategists and soothsayers in history, had a meltdown days ago. He is losing his mind because nothing the Democrats are saying or doing can stop Trump. Not calling him “Hitler.” Not using abortion as the only issue 24/7. Not indictments, rigged trials, or even convictions. “Nothing is working,” Carville ranted like a madman.

    Actually Carville is wrong. It is all working- for Trump.

    But trust me, Democrats have a plan. Biden just told you. It’s called, “The Great Replacement.”

    Biden (and his boss Obama- the real President) have let in millions of illegals, or as Biden just called them, “voters.” Why would anyone want to let in millions of foreign invaders, criminals, terrorists and the world’s poverty-stricken who require welfare from cradle to grave? You’d have to be insane. You’d have to be a suicide bomnber.

    Because to Democrats these are all simply new Democrat voters.

    Give them all $10,000 visa cards, $2,000 cash, free flights anywhere they want (without any ID necessary to board planes), free food, free healthcare, free phones and free legal services. Add in welfare, food stamps and Medicaid. Add in free public school for each illegal alien child- worth $20,000 to $40,000 per child, annually.

    And then ask only one thing in return- fill out the voter registration form and vote for Biden and straight Democrat down the ballot.

    And of course, no one needs to read or speak English. Conveniently, they can all vote in Spanish. That’s why Biden calls the Spanish language “America’s future.”

    The open border isn’t about letting illegal aliens into America. It’s about letting Democrat voters into America.

    These sheeple will vote Democrat to thank Biden for letting them in. They will vote Democrat to keep from being deported. They will vote Democrat to keep the welfare checks and food stamps coming.

    Democrats know Trump is winning by a landslide with legal American citizens- including this time around with large numbers of blacks, Hispanics and young voters. So, the only way to overcome perhaps 10 to 20 million new Trump voters is to import 25 million illegal alien foreign invaders to outvote and replace the citizens.

    Hence the name “The Great Replacement.”

    Don’t you get it? The polls show a Trump landslide. And they’re accurate, IF we’re only counting legal American citizens. But polls don’t count illegal aliens. These poll numbers don’t include millions- perhaps 25 million- of illegal alien voters.

    Add them in and Trump’s landslide lead evaporates into thin air.

    This is how Democrats plan to turn a landslide Trump victory into a loss. “It’s all about the illegals, stupid.”

    Biden just told us.

  17. New Documents Reveal Training Materials Explaining to Noncitizens and Illegal Aliens How They Can Register to Vote in DC Elections
    by Cristina Laila May. 14, 2024 12:00 pm90 Comments

    Conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch obtained documents explaining to noncitizens and illegal aliens how they can register to vote in local DC elections.

    A federal judge last year upheld a Washington DC law that allows noncitizens – including illegal aliens – to vote in municipal elections.

    US District Judge for the District of Columbia Amy Berman Jackson, an Obama appointee tossed a lawsuit filed by a conservative group challenging the Local Resident Voting Rights Act, passed by the DC Council in October 2022.

    The law not only allows non-citizens and illegals to vote, it also permits noncitizens to run for office!

  20. FRENCH CHAOS: Armed Gang Members Attack Prison Convoy, Kill 2 Guards, Wound Another 3, and Free Dangerous Drug Trafficker ‘The Fly’ (VIDEO)
    by Paul Serran May. 14, 2024 4:30 pm46 Comments

    Post-colonial fading power France is in a constant state of turmoil. La Republique is bracing itself for the hosting of the 2024 Summer Olympics in 73 days.

    ‘Le Petit Roi’ Emmanuel Macron, former Rothschild banker and Globalist Poster Boy, runs around the world pretending he is relevant, trying to make people forget he just presided over the expulsion of France from all the African Sahel former colonies.

    Back home, society is ailing from the usual mix of failed, crippling European policies: unchecked mass migration deforming the social fabric, green climate alarmism, welfare state killing free enterprise, the rampant culture of death enshrining abortion in the constitution and now pushing for euthanasia.

    Just last year, Macron changed the citizens’ pension rules by decree, generating a season of protest, because the French state is broke. But now, of course, he finds billions upon billions of Euros to give Ukraine, and pushes to send European troops into the war.

    Meanwhile, crime is thriving, and the forces of order look more frail every day.

    A dangerous drug Lord who was a prisoner is now on the run in France. He escaped after an attack that left two prison guards dead.

    He was being transported in a prison van when heavily armed and hooded gang members ambushed the convoy.
    Sky News reported:
    “The escaped prisoner is Mohamed Amra, who is nicknamed ‘La Mouche’, or ‘The Fly’, according to reports by French media. The 30-year-old is a drug dealer from northern France, police sources said.”

    3 prison guards were killed and the gang leader managed to escape. The gunmen seemed to be armed with a carbine and rifles.

    Watch: Armed gang members ambush a van transporting gang leader, Mohamed “The Fly”, in Incarville.
    The Fly is suspected of ordering a murder in Marseille and has ties to the city’s powerful “Blacks” gang.

    “He was under high surveillance and had recently been sentenced for burglary. He was also under investigation for a kidnapping and homicide case in Marseille, according to public prosecutor Laure Beccuau.

    However, he was not considered a ‘radicalized’ prisoner, according to police sources speaking to French newspaper Le Figaro.”

    French authorities dropping the ball at every turn.

    A father of 2 children and a future father, whose wife is 5 months pregnant, lost their lives in the attack.
    French authorities are being harshly criticized for ignoring the safety of the agents responsible for transporting dangerous detainees linked to Marseille drug trafficking in non-armored vans.

    He was in solitary confinement after an escape attempt in which he tried to saw through his cell bars.

    “Amra was being transported in a van to Evreux jail in Normandy after a court hearing in Rouen, about 35 miles away, when it was ambushed by heavily armed men.

    Two male prison officers were shot dead and three others were seriously injured during the attack, which happened on a motorway around 9am local time.”

    Hundreds of police officers have been mobilized in a major manhunt.

  21. The W.H.O. “Pandemic Treaty” WILL be Negotiated in Secret! Our Sovereignty is Under Attack, as a Loophole is Uncovered (VIDEO)
    by Grant Stinchfield May. 14, 2024 4:45 pm45 Comments

    The power-hungry global elites are telling the world they have “watered down” the Pandemic Treaty that will hand over pandemic response to The World Health Organization.

    Do NOT believe them.

    WHO globalists are in the process of duping the 194 member nations into a sense of security before they quietly pounce.

    oThere has been tremendous pushback after many of us sounded the alarm. Once we realized the original proposed treaty would give the W.H.O. the power to mandate lockdowns, vaccines, and vaccine passports in response to a so-called “pandemic,” we started a massive campaign to expose the plot. If passed and ratified by the U.S., it would give foreign bureaucrats wide-ranging power over us. That is unacceptable.

    Reports are emerging that The W.H.O. elites plan on using back-room secret negotiations to slip back in the original language to include the ability to lock us down and enforce global mandates.

    If the back-room dealing is unsuccessful, The Daily Mail is reporting these medical oligarchs will try to use their annual “Convention of Parties” to amend the treaty to include the widest range of damaging, overreaching tyrannical policies.
    One of the world’s foremost experts on the pandemic response and how these globalists partnered with Big Pharma to wage war on the world is epidemiologist Dr. Harvey Risch.

    He has made it his mission to expose the COVID Bio-weapon plot and those responsible for it. He is our guest.
