How Reporting Facts Can Now Land You in Jail for 14 Years as a Terrorist, by Jonathan Cook

22. Dezember 2025 - 6:10
Starmer’s government has set the most dangerous of precedents: it can now outlaw any political group it chooses as a terrorist organisation – and thereby make it impossible to defend it The moment the British government began proscribing political movements as terrorist organisations, rather than just militant groups, it was inevitable that saying factual things,...

Tucker Carlson Backpedals Once Again, by Richard Parker

22. Dezember 2025 - 6:00
As most readers are doubtlessly well aware, the first day of the Turning Point Convention on December 18, 2025 was a notable event for the way that Erika Kirk and above all Ben Shapiro made spectacles of themselves. Vivek Ramaswamy also saw fit to tell Americans what their identity is and how it includes him...

22. Dezember 2025 - 6:00
Late last week, Congress passed and President Trump signed the 2026 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). The bill marks the first time the US military budget officially passed the one trillion dollar mark.

22. Dezember 2025 - 6:00
Perhaps, Israel is now realising that ‘realities in the region’ have changed. Leading Israeli commentator, Anna Barsky, in Ma’ariv (in Hebrew) writes: And here’s the ‘rub’: Thus …“ Thus, the Israeli leadership is both disillusioned and frustrated. But this is just the tip of t

22. Dezember 2025 - 6:00
In response to the rise of the Groypers, Vivek Ramaswamy, wrote an NYT op-ed on American identity. Vivek defines being an American as those who “believe in the rule of law, in freedom of conscience and freedom of expression, in colorblind meritocracy, in the U.S. Constitution, in the American dream, and if you are a...

Stop Picking On Poor Little Israel, by Caitlin Johnstone

22. Dezember 2025 - 6:00
Stop picking on poor little Israel. It’s just sitting there minding its own business trying to do a little genocide in peace while aggressively lobbying your government to crush your freedom of speech and freedom of assembly, and you’re OBSESSING about it for NO REASON. You just hate Jews. That’s the only possible reason you...

Donald Trump and His Immigration Policies, by Ron Unz

22. Dezember 2025 - 6:00
Last week I'd published an article noting the considerable similarities between the reign of the notorious Roman Emperor Caligula and the second term of our own President Donald Trump. According to the ancient sources, Caligula had best been known for proclaiming himself a living god and for declaring that he would appoint his horse to...

Europe’s Elites Pay for the Privilege of Losing Conflict, by Pepe Escobar

22. Dezember 2025 - 6:00
PALERMO, Sicily - When in doubt, Europeans should always re-read Tacitus. As a true Roman, he considered that sacrifice was only worthy if conducted at the service of the motherland. In his time, the Roman Empire. In our time, that would be civilization-state Italy. Tacitus was a keen student of Resistance - reflecting on the...

Vivek Is Scamming Us, by Kevin DeAnna

22. Dezember 2025 - 6:00
Vivek Ramaswamy is a salesman. He made his money promoting a drug that failed a clinical trial. It was legal, but did not help anyone. He then moved on to politics, with tough talk about the ways Americans need to shape up. This is hypocritical. While “scam” would be too strong a word, investors in...

Notes On Bondi Beach and Free Speech, by Caitlin Johnstone

21. Dezember 2025 - 6:20
The dumbest thing we are being asked to believe today is that pro-Palestinian protests caused the Bondi shooting. It’s self-evidently moronic. No one sincerely believes it. They’re just pretending to believe it to get protests banned and criticism of Israel outlawed. Nobody actually believes pro-Palestine protests caused the Bondi shooting. They’re just pretending to believe...

21. Dezember 2025 - 6:20
The most critical issue Americans face is their continued national existence as an ethnic sovereign nation. Ignoring the issue pushes the United States into a Tower of Babel in which a nation cannot exist. On Monday, tomorrow, I will post my traditional Christmas column. Perhaps it will remind some of us of our roots in...

White Ethnicities Are an Extremely Endangered Species, by Paul Craig Roberts

21. Dezember 2025 - 6:10
I wish I could find my white privilege. All I can find is my white burden. Shrinking middle-class incomes are burdened with the upkeep of millions of illegals who, with the help of Democrats, have overrun our country and with the burden of supporting 42 million Americans on SNAP benefits, which amounts to a form...

The Western World Has Destroyed Its Men, by Paul Craig Roberts

21. Dezember 2025 - 6:05
Russia’s President Putin has again expressed his concern that the Russian birth rate has fallen to 1.4. He sees this as a demographic crisis. The birth rate is insufficient to maintain the current size of the Russian population, much less to increase it. We see that the perpetuation of white ethnicities is in question in...

21. Dezember 2025 - 6:00
It’s time to ditch the dreamers and get back to diplomacy Brussels was the centre of the pro-war universe on 18 December as the European Commission tried to bludgeon the resistance out of Belgian Prime Minister, Bart de Wever.

2025 has been a momentous year for the world.

If You're Not Free to Oppose A Genocide, Your Society Is Not Free, by Caitlin Johnstone

21. Dezember 2025 - 6:00
If the right to free speech does not include the right to oppose an active genocide using strong and unmitigated language, then there is no freedom of speech. This is exactly the sort of thing that freedom of speech is intended for: times when the government is doing something wrong which needs to be ferociously...

20. Dezember 2025 - 6:20
The National Security Strategy’s Drive to Shed the Costs of Imposing Its U.S. Unipolar Empire The one area in which the National Security Strategy makes a claim to be realistic is to recognize that the United States cannot directly be seen to impose its control by force. This task is to be delegated more to...
