  • 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 […]

  • The COVID Stimulus Deal

    Occidental Dissent - Dec 21st 2020 5:42pm EST

    The stimulus bill is so ridiculously large that no one can physically carry it.There is zero chance that any of the people voting on it have actually read it. pic.twitter.com/9YH5vuSjsT— Pomp ?

  • 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 […]

  • Prospect: Can Biden Govern As a Progressive Populist?

    Occidental Dissent - Dec 16th 2020 2:00pm EST

    I highly doubt it. It would certainly be nice though. I’m keeping an open mind. We will see how it goes. Prospect: “Trump and the Tea Partiers before him made gains with ordinary Americans because a corporatized Democratic Party stopped delivering for them. This was especially true in rural and small metro areas that were […]

  • Jacobin: Republicans and Industrial Policy After Trump

    Occidental Dissent - Dec 15th 2020 2:58pm EST

    It didn’t come as a surprise to White populists when Donald Trump lost the 2020 election. I predicted the outcome and gave the following reasons on this website well over a year ago: Donald Trump Loses The 2020 Election “If I had to bet on the outcome of the 2020 election, I would predict that […]

    LISTEN HERE. Along with Eric Striker, I keep tabs on the TAC podcast, particularly when populist issues are discussed. In this episode, Arthur Bloom, Oren Cass, Rachel Bovard and Ross Douthat discuss what went wrong with the Trump presidency or basically how it lost its populist veneer.

  • 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 […]

  • The Working Class Party Myth

    Occidental Dissent - Dec 13th 2020 5:53pm EST

    There were a lot of surprises in 2020, but I’d put the vastly reduced salience of immigration in this election v. ’18 and ’20 on the list. Immigration wasn’t even mentioned in the first debate, and the exit poll didn’t bother to ask about it, either— Nate Cohn (@Nate_Cohn) December 13, 2020 George Hawley and […]

  • 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 […]
