  • Tucker Carlson Speaks To Turning Point USA’s SAS

    Occidental Dissent - Dec 22nd 2020 4:51pm EST

    I’ve heard a lot of hot air how mainstream conservatism has changed and how the GOP is now the party of the multiracial, multiethnic working class. It is not Left vs. Right anymore. It is Top vs. Bottom. We clearly saw otherwise when Sen. Ron Johnson came out on the Senate floor and twice shot […]

  • Sen. Rand Paul Explodes On The Senate Floor Over $600 COVID Relief Checks

    Occidental Dissent - Dec 21st 2020 2:04pm EST

    I’ve seen enough. Frankly, I don’t want “deficit hawks” like Sen. Rand Paul and Sen. Ron Johnson running the Senate. I hope Republicans lose control of the Senate in January.

  • Rand Paul Rails Against COVID Relief Plans

    Occidental Dissent - Dec 19th 2020 1:31pm EST

    Sen. Rand Paul reflects the prevailing view of the Tea Party “deficit hawks” on COVID. The government should do nothing about the virus. No one should get a helping hand from the government either. That’s even worse. The real tragedy is the budget deficit, not the death and suffering. In China, which is where the […]

  • Sen. Ron Johnson Objects To Bernie Sanders’ $1,200 Stimulus Checks Bill

    Occidental Dissent - Dec 18th 2020 5:52pm EST

    Bernie Sanders went on the Senate floor this afternoon and took another shot at passing a clean bill with nothing but the $1,200 stimulus checks: I am on the floor urging the Senate to provide $1,200 direct payments to all working-class Americans and $500 to their kids.Millions are out of work, hungry, and can’t pay […]

  • Nick Fuentes: Stop The Steal Is Largely Run By Grifters

    Occidental Dissent - Dec 13th 2020 7:49pm EST

    H/T Autismo I agree with Nick Fuentes. Is he referring to Ali Alexander? Back in 2016, Ali was trying to steal the delegates for Ted Cruz. Nick is lucky that he wasn’t allowed on stage with the rest of the cranks and grifters at the Jericho March. It struck me as less of a Trump […]

  • Jacobin: The Siren Song of “Pro-Worker” Conservatism

    Occidental Dissent - Dec 11th 2020 1:27pm EST

    Interesting article. Basically, I agree that the ideal of a pro-White, pro-Western, pro-working class National Populist version of conservatism taking root in the Republican Party is a mirage. Jacobin: “There’s a new, increasingly assertive, tendency on the Right. These conservatives are not rabid free marketeers, hawkish neocons, or religious fundamentalists. They hate Beltway elitism and […]

  • Trump’s Populist Record

    Occidental Dissent - Dec 8th 2020 11:10am EST

    Even this is painting an overly rosy picture of Trump’s populist record. TAC: “Although Joe Biden advertised himself as a “transitional candidate” during the 2020 campaign, Donald Trump will probably be remembered as the transitional president. The issues his 2016 campaign raised, such as deindustrialization and competition with China, will continue to shape policy for […]

    LMAO. I strongly disagree with this study.
