  • You Tell Me Why Americans Elected Biden When All Knew Biden Did Not Represent Them, by Paul Craig Roberts

    The Unz Review - Jan 25th 2021 9:52am EST

    Sexual deviants, pedophiles, Antifa, Black Lives Matter, illegal aliens, feminist-indoctrinated women who think they are superior, defense contractors, organized interest groups that pay well and their Washington lobbies are Biden’s base. Numerically Biden’s base is very small. It is comprised of the least desirable elements in the country. Here is Biden Giving the Bird to…

  • Trump and His Greatest Contribution to America, by Mark Allen

    The Unz Review - Jan 24th 2021 7:37am EST

    The Trump presidency is over. But whether you loved him, despised him, admired him, or merely tolerated him, there is one thing he did for America that makes him the most important figure in modern American history: He exposed the farce that America is a healthy, functioning democracy. Trump has shown Americans, without meaning to,…

  • That’s All Folks!, by C.J. Hopkins

    The Unz Review - Jan 24th 2021 7:22am EST

    As they used to say at the end of all those wacky Looney Tunes cartoons, that’s all folks! The show is over. Literal Russian-Asset Hitler, the Latest Greatest Threat to Western Democracy, the Monster of Mar-a-Lago, Trumpzilla, Trumpenstein, the Ayatollah of Orange Shinola, has finally been humiliated and given the bum-rush out of Washington by…

  • Will Medical or Religious Exemptions Work Against Forced Vaccination?, by Yvonne Lorenzo

    The Unz Review - Jan 23rd 2021 8:08pm EST

    Mocking the Newly Installed Murderous Regime Let me start with an irreverent tribute to our compassionate political leaders—and I use the term “compassionate” with the greatest irony—by featuring the Freudian slip of humanoid gargoyle Senator Chuck Schumer, speaking about the second impeachment of Donald Trump:

  • Political Importance of the Capitol Invasion May be Greater Than 9/11, by Patrick Cockburn

    The Unz Review - Jan 22nd 2021 9:52pm EST

    I was always worried when I had to enter the Green Zone in Baghdad at a time when its entrances were under frequent attack by suicide bombers driving vehicles filled with explosives. Being blown up by al-Qaeda in Iraq was not the only danger. The soldiers guarding the outer checkpoints of the zone were understandably…

  • Biden’s America: One Nation or Us Versus Them?, by Pat Buchanan

    The Unz Review - Jan 22nd 2021 12:00am EST

    “We have met the enemy and he is us,” said Walt Kelly’s cartoon character Pogo, half a century ago, about what we Americans were doing to our environment. Rereading President Joe Biden’s inaugural address, Pogo’s remark comes to mind. Biden began on a lofty, hopeful and familiar note: “This is a great nation. We are…

  • Death, Probably; Life Even More Likely, by James Thompson

    The Unz Review - Jan 21st 2021 8:58am EST

    I had always imagined that death had a certainty to it. Taxes are a close second, but death is easier to diagnose. The problem comes when the cause must be written on the certificate. A heavy drinker who falls downstairs has an accidental death, but it was brought on by his habitual drinking. Someone who…

  • Blacks Committed 73% of Mass Shootings In 2020. Many Cases Remain Unsolved. Where Is the FBI?, by Eric Striker

    The Unz Review - Jan 21st 2021 7:08am EST

    As the media, FBI and Anti-Defamation League declare “white supremacy” and “domestic terrorism” the gravest threats to public safety in America, neither played any role in the outbreak of violence in 2020 — one of the deadliest years in American history. Disingenuous political actors often point to the Charleston Church Shooting in 2015, the Tree…

  • Zone B Exists, Thus There Is Hope, I Promise You!, by The Saker

    The Unz Review - Jan 20th 2021 8:36pm EST

    Today it appears that the triumph of our adversaries is total. I want to post this column saying that I don’t believe for one second that this is true. All I want to do today is explain why. Thus, just to make clear to those alternatively gifted, this is not a comprehensive analysis and I…

  • An Open Letter to Trump Supporters, by Gregory Hood

    The Unz Review - Jan 20th 2021 4:52pm EST

    Donald Trump is gone. No storm broke. No reckoning came. There was no plan. In his place, a career politician assumed the presidency. Joe Biden muttered some platitudes. Most people have already forgotten them, probably including Joe Biden. We’re told the inauguration was historic and dramatic. It was banal and boring. It celebrated mediocrity. It…

  • Review: the Elephant Man, by Trevor Lynch

    The Unz Review - Jan 20th 2021 1:52pm EST

    David Lynch’s second feature film, The Elephant Man (1980), is one of his finest works. In many ways, The Elephant Man is Lynch’s most conventional “Hollywood” film. (Dune too is a “Hollywood” film, but a failed one.) The cast of The Elephant Man is quite distinguished, including John Hurt, Anthony Hopkins, Sir John Gielgud, Dame…

  • Russiagate Redux, by Paul Craig Roberts

    The Unz Review - Jan 20th 2021 11:51am EST

    Hillary & Nancy Say It Wasn’t the stolen election that Discredited American Democracy, It Was Putin’s Order to Trump to Cause an Insurrection on January 6 Listen to the Idiots Into Whose Hands Our Country Has Been Put: Hillary Clinton asks House Speaker Nancy Pelosi if a new Russiagate investigation is necessary in order to…

  • Momentum: A Week in China, by Godfree Roberts

    The Unz Review - Jan 19th 2021 7:51am EST

    Though China’s population has not changed in decades, the mass of its economy, thirty percent bigger than ours, multiplied by its velocity, gives it momentum unseen anywhere in peacetime: it will add the equivalent of Italy’s GDP this year. I edit a newsletter for the 22,000 US companies doing business in China, covering the economy,…

  • Now, the Left Owns It All, by Pat Buchanan

    The Unz Review - Jan 19th 2021 12:00am EST

    That mob that split off from the Donald Trump rally of Jan. 6 to invade the Capitol has proven a godsend to the left. The death of a Capitol cop has enabled the left — which spent the summer after George Floyd’s death trashing “racist cops” and shouting, “Defund the Police!” — to posture as…

  • Goodbye Sheldon Adelson, by Philip Giraldi

    The Unz Review - Jan 19th 2021 12:00am EST

    Casino magnate and Israeli patriot multi-billionaire Sheldon Adelson, one of the world’s richest men, died in Las Vegas on January 11th at age 87. He had been suffering from cancer and has been buried at the Mount of Olives Cemetery in Israel. When his body arrived in Israel it was met by Prime Minister Benjamin…

  • The Fifth-Generation War on White People, by Marcus Apostate

    The Unz Review - Jan 18th 2021 9:38pm EST

    Many Americans woke up this week to the crystal-clear realization that we have entered a fifth generation (5G) civil war for control of this county – a culture war, yes, but much more than that. In this short essay, I draw from history to briefly reflect on what this means to me as a more…

  • The Unwelcome Return of the Real Purveyors of Violence, by Ron Paul

    The Unz Review - Jan 18th 2021 10:52am EST

    With the mainstream media still obsessing about the January 6th “violent coup attempt” at the US Capitol Building, the incoming Biden Administration looks to be chock full of actual purveyors of violent coups. Don’t look to the mainstream media to report on this, however. Some of the same politicians and bureaucrats denouncing the ridiculous farce…

  • Remembering the Reichstag Fire, by Eric Rasmusen

    The Unz Review - Jan 17th 2021 9:23am EST

    The night of the January 6 invasion of the Capitol building, I immediately thought of the 1933 Reichstag Fire, when Nazi Brownshirts helped a foolish Communist set fire to the German parliament house and used that as an excuse to arrest the leaders of the German Communist Party and pass an act giving Chancellor Hitler…

  • Crisis #1 for Biden—Double Jeopardy System for Badwhites Will Get Officer Derek Chauvin. But First There May be Blood, by John Derbyshire

    The Unz Review - Jan 16th 2021 11:09pm EST

    [Excerpted from the latest Radio Derb, now available exclusively through VDARE.com] See, earlier, May 30, 2020: Even Right Abandoning Accused Minneapolis Cop—But They Shouldn’t The incoming new administration will, with high probability, face three major crises in the next year or so. China will probably invade Taiwan. The stock market bubble will burst and the…

  • Did Milton Friedman’s Libertarianism Seek to Advance Jewish Interests?, by Marco de Wit

    The Unz Review - Jan 16th 2021 10:22pm EST

    In his Culture of Critique trilogy Kevin MacDonald shows how many Jewish intellectual movements have developed a culture of critique that undermines those ideas and values that protect White group interests and cohesion. These Jewish intellectual movements include the Frankfurt School (philosophy, sociology), Boazian anthropology, Freudian psychoanalysis, the New York Intellectuals (literature), Marxism and even…

  • Government Is Using the Mutant Virus as an Alibi for Its Failures, by Patrick Cockburn

    The Unz Review - Jan 16th 2021 8:56am EST

    The coastal town of Margate in east Kent is the place where the fast-spreading variant of Covid-19 first mutated before it swept through the rest of Britain. Scientists identified Kent last month as the county where the mutant virus developed, but a source with knowledge of research into its origins tells me that the earliest…

  • Waiting for the Jab, by James Thompson

    The Unz Review - Jan 15th 2021 7:12am EST

    Science and politics make awkward bedfellows. Science is more concerned with the truth, or ought to be; politics more concerned with expediency, survival and the avoidance of blame. For that reason, politics is closer to human nature. It is natural to simply hope for the best, to take precautions a little too late, and relax…

  • The Lynch Mob Comes for Citizen Trump, by Pat Buchanan

    The Unz Review - Jan 15th 2021 12:00am EST

    “The president of the United States summoned this mob, assembled this mob and lit the flame of this attack.” So alleged Liz Cheney, third-ranking Republican in the House, as she led nine GOP colleagues to vote for a second impeachment of Donald Trump. The House Republican caucus voted 19-1 against impeachment. House Democrats voted lockstep,…

  • American Pravda: Our Disputed Election, by Ron Unz

    The Unz Review - Jan 14th 2021 3:38pm EST

    Although hardly suggested by our mainstream media, the officially-reported results demonstrated that our 2020 presidential election was extraordinarily close. All the regular pre-election polls had shown the Democratic candidates with a comfortable lead, but just as had been the case four years earlier, the actual votes tabulated revealed a contrary outcome. According to the official…

  • No One Is Listening: A Country Divided Against Itself, by Philip Giraldi

    The Unz Review - Jan 14th 2021 8:54am EST

    The U.S. may morph into two nations with the increasingly impoverished helot “deplorables” under the heel of the empowered social justice warriors. In a recent article Catholic University professor Claes G. Ryn wrote “Few people are really open to persuasion in any case—not just on political subjects but on any subject about which they care…
