Each day at just after midnight Eastern, a post like this one is created for contributors and readers of this site to upload news links and video links on the issues that concern this site. 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.
This is the new Samizdat. We must use it while we can.
For those interested, please check out https://vladtepesblog.substack.com/ as an another avenue of expression. The Substack is a different project in a sense. It is older videos that in the light of subsequent events, look different or of increased importance, Check it out now and again if you like.
There are so many talking heads and so little time. I started this morning with an Alex Krainer video that popped up. He’s another one of these guys who tells us something BIG comes out way, that PT is on some wrong path, and that we are being deceived at every turn. I feel it is all smoke and mirrors designed to make people feel informed and smart, which is enough to distract them from Leftist forces in play. Look at NYC.
Alternatively, here is a man who says clearly the threat coming from Latin America, who it is, how it is, and why PT is doing what he is doing. There is more veracity in the person who warns of the Communist threat than the one who tells us the BRICS nations merely want to be left alone.

People think I’m nuts for keeping old cars. There is method to some forms of madness, however. Richard, I’m sure you will appreciate what this guy says. Changing a light bulb on your tail lights should not cost $500-$1000. It’s all about the body control module.
I will agree it shouldn’t cost near that much, I have changed my own tail light bulbs on every vehicle I have had.
Dick Cheney dead:
“Richard B. Cheney, the 46th Vice President of the United States, died last night, November 3, 2025. He was 84 years old. His beloved wife of 61 years, Lynne, his daughters, Liz and Mary, and other family members were with him as he passed. The former Vice President died due to complications of pneumonia and cardiac and vascular disease.
“For decades, Dick Cheney served our nation, including as White House Chief of Staff, Wyoming’s Congressman, Secretary of Defense, and Vice President of the United States.
“Dick Cheney was a great and good man who taught his children and grandchildren to love our country, and to live lives of courage, honor, love, kindness, and fly fishing. We are grateful beyond measure for all Dick Cheney did for our country. And we are blessed beyond measure to have loved and been loved by this noble giant of a man.”

Latin primary meaning of “nex”?

Start spreading the news, I’m leaving today….muslim, Democratic Socialists wins mayor’s race….unbelievable ……
It looks like the Dems have made a clean sweep in the Dem controlled states that were holding elections today, I had hopes that sanity would allow at least one victory for freedom but that didn’t happen. The 3 cities that have elected
communistSocialist Mayors are going to discover that the people who can afford to leave their cities will leave and that they will have cities filled with the poor who don’t make enough money to be taxed.This tragedy is going to create a lot of chaos and violence, we can expect more and more violence when ICE arrests illegal aliens and more and more bombings like the one in Harvard and worse bombings as the left discovers that their policies cause thinking people to flee from their control. In the long run this will probably be good for the nation but in the short run it is going to create a log of pain and chaos.
From Rudy Giuliani to this wretched Shitte-flavored tard. Heartbreaking.

The “Jews” Are a Proxy for a Bigger Political Fight over the American Future
Progressives festoon their bigotry with banners of diversity, demanding Jews disown Israel. Meanwhile, Tucker Carlson updates the Protocols to paint Jews as the hidden hand behind global power.
…
Why are Americans suddenly attacking Jews from left and right simultaneously? The cross fire grows out of a larger debate about America’s role in the world. The alliance structures and global commitments built for the Cold War sit uneasily alongside the rise of China as a peer competitor…
Should America remain the preeminent power in all areas of the globe? Or should it withdraw from the Middle East and, possibly, from Europe too? Or should it retreat entirely, pull up the drawbridges, and focus inward?
…
Israel is more than a thorny policy question; it has always carried a special symbolic weight in America. There is the practical debate over strategy, costly commitments, and alliance management. And then there is the larger question of meaning: what America is, and what role Israel plays in its story…
In crossing the Atlantic, the Puritans saw themselves as Israelites crossing the Red Sea. They mapped the Holy Land onto the wilderness—Bethel, Salem, Zion, Mount Ephraim. Massachusetts Bay was the New Jerusalem rising from European corruption.…
The identification endured—in some ways even down to today.

Moving paean to our enduring sense of American exceptionalism. Sounds like he’s channeling Mrs. Abigail Adam and her Puritan forbears.
We’d best cast the ugly horseshoe extremes into the sea as a millstone around our neck.
Turkey Seeks to Build a Proxy Threat around Israel
Turkish President Erdogan played a decisive role in securing the release of hostages by applying heavy pressure on his protege, Hamas. We found ourselves in a situation in which, to save hostages, there was no choice but to do business with the devil. But now the moment has come to understand that this is indeed the devil.
Gen. Adnan Tanriverdi, one of Erdogan’s trusted confidants, wrote a manifesto titled “How to Conquer Jerusalem in Ten Days,” calling on Muslim countries to cooperate to provide Palestinians with “bases on their territory from which they can show military force against Israel, and, using Islamic geography, create a maritime corridor to Gaza and an air corridor to Ramallah.”
Turkey seeks to build a proxy threat around us similar to the Iranian proxy ring. It is already militarily present in Libya and Syria. It established a drone base in Cyprus. It is trying to extend influence into Egypt, and now it is present in Gaza in the form of 13 aid organizations. For many years Turkey has been an economic and military home for Hamas.
Today, Turkey is a center of anti-Jewish hostility and hatred against Israel. Effigies of Netanyahu are “executed” by hanging, and Israeli flags are trampled in the streets. Erdogan frequently compares us to Hitler and repeatedly accuses Israel of genocide.

WaPoo, for what it’s worth:
Trump Sees Central Role for Turkey in Gaza, Alarming Israel
Turkey has won effusive praise from President Trump in recent weeks for using its relationship with Hamas to pressure the militant group to reach a Gaza ceasefire deal with Israel. However, the central role that the Americans see for Turkey in advancing Trump’s peace plan has left Israeli officials aghast. They consider Turkey to be too closely aligned with Islamist groups hostile to Israel.
Israelis have warned that Turkish involvement in Gaza would position hostile forces in Israel’s backyard. “This idea of the Turks and Turkish groups going inside Gaza, it makes the Israelis crazy, after having done so much to prevent Turkish intervention,” said Michael Milshtein, former chief of the Palestinian affairs section of Israeli military intelligence. “It’s obvious that they are not a partner of Israel.”
If “we finally get rid of Iran and Hizbullah, and then we end up with Turkey, Qatar and the Muslim Brotherhood inside Gaza, that would be a very dangerous situation,” said Michael Oren, a former Israeli ambassador to the U.S.
