One of the most eventful things to have happened recently was from an unexpected source. The State Department and the intelligence apparatus didn’t initiate any coups somewhere in the Third World, the Kremlin didn’t launch a blitzkrieg and capture Kiev, and a currency from the BRICS nations (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) hasn’t entered circulation yet.

Angelo Codevilla Nails the Entropy That Has Seeped Into the West
I grow more and more ashamed of my alma mater, Boston University, the more that the too-well-known airhead (otherwise known as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, AOC) lets loose with her Socialist mantras that bedevils her “degree” in economics and international relationship.
“It’s More a Ruling Class That Has Given Up on the Society It Rules.”
Traditionally, our “Ruling Class” understood that America came first before its ideological aims. They understood that this demanded a “Limited Government” that let the rest of us decide for ourselves what is best for us.
A Reminder: Our “Ruling Class” Will Continue To Ignore Us Until WE Decide They Can’t
But when will that Preference Cascade, that tipping point, happen? From Angelo Codvilla, a Professor from my alma mater (BU) that DID make me feel grand to have matriculated from there (twice). Emphasis mine As over-leveraged investment houses began to fail in September 2008, the leaders of the Republican and Democratic parties, of major corporations, … Read more
Neil Oliver: Governments Amount to Hundreds, We Amount to Millions – They Are Few and We Are Many
Neil Oliver hits the nail on the head again. I cannot recommend watching this monologue highly enough. Eventually, when all government pressures are exhausted, the demand for mandatory vaccination only ends one way, with brute force.
Notable Quote: Trump is merely the Symptom – it is the Elites that are the Disease
Suddenly, to a lot of voters, those postwar institutional arrangements stopped looking so good. But, of course, the beneficiaries showed no sign of giving them up. This has led to a lot of political discord, and a lot of culture war, since in America class warfare is usually disguised as cultural warfare. But underneath the … Read more
Angelo Codevilla is Dead
The inspiring mind of Angelo Codevvia has been ripped from us by a drunk driver. The 78-year old was walking when he was allegedly struck by a vehicle and later died to from the injuries.
The Perils of Revolution
One of those bits of reading I suggest people revisit often is ‘America’s Ruling Class and the Perils of Revolution.’ Written in 2010 by Angelo Codevilla, it emerged at the height of the Tea Party response to a Democrat Majority Congress and Barack Obama’s Presidency.
Nikki Haley Has Decided She Never Wants to Be President of the United States
The main curtain closed on impeachment theater yesterday (Act 2 Scene 2) but not before someone from the former Trump Administration “announced” they never want to be president. Never.
DC Mask Mandate – Government Employees and Lawmakers are Exempt
Here’s a quick little diddy about DC and the Ruling class. The mayor, a Democrat, has instituted a mask mandate across the District. Everyone three-years or older has to wear them, but government employees and lawmakers are exempt.
Joe Biden Proves Mattis’ “Divisive Trump” Remarks are a Progressive Talking Point
John Kelly was briefly the White House Chief of Staff. Once appointed, his job (which Trump figured out not soon enough) was to stuff the West Wing with Never-Trumpers and Progressive mules. He was tasked by insiders to surround Trump with Swamp water.
“Public Health” is Just Another Mule for Tyranny
I was having a chat with an old friend about politics. The state of division. The anger and frustration. Democrats, Republicans, primaries, crappy candidates, Trump, and what to do about or with any of it. What to do about what?
Ager v. Duprey – The NH Grass Roots v. The NHGOP Establishment?
To their credit, Right Voter has lined up and rolled out some well know New Hampshire Republicans to endorse Steve Duprey for RNC Committeeman. And while Duprey may be a great guy (I don’t know him), his record on the Platform is not. Are his endorsers prepared to carry that weight?
It’s Not a Partisan, Divisive, Coarsening of “our” Politics When They Do It?
There are these Republicrats who created a group to fight Donald Trump and everyone who supports him. He is coarse and destructive – the harbinger of partisan division. If by that you mean, unwilling to bend to continuous pressure and committed to dismantling the bureaucratic state, I agree.
Mr. Trump’s Enemies Are Your Enemies
Conrad Black has an entertaining turn over at National Review titled Trump and His Enemies. It revisits the issue of Mr. Trump’s victory against both parties (for which his every-day American supports adore him) and how the ruling class establishment elites hate him for it.
Two pull quotes to tease it for you. First,
They are enemies and the president would not wish it any other way. He ran for office against both parties, the lobbyists, almost all the national political media, and the politically active elements of Wall Street, Hollywood, and Silicon Valley.
Deep State Warfare – The Global Deep State vs. President Trump
Former NSC Staffer Rich Higgins was fired by H.R. McMaster. Probably because he truly understood what Mr. Trump was trying to do in the war against the Deep State. In what has been labeled as “The Rich Higgins Memo” he analyzes the global ruling class war against Mr. Trump and his country class supporters.
Here’s a sample.
Culturally conditioned to limit responses to such attacks as yet another round in the on-going drone from diversity and multicultural malcontents, these broadsides are discounted as political correctness run amuck. However, political correctness is a weapon against reason and critical thinking. This weapon functions as the enforcement mechanism of diversity narratives that seek to implement cultural Marxism.
Donald Trump did not create the division, its existence is why he is President.
The “world” elite Democrats live in is nothing like the real world of modern America, represented by these observations from the first Obama Foundation summit in Chicago.
The Elite’s Immigration Disconnect
Jessica Vaughn from the Center for Immigration Studies shares the statistical and real-world disconnect on immigration policy between the opinions of the political class in DC, and regular Americans. *Recorded at the 603 Alliance Grassroots Summit
