Zone B Exists, Thus There Is Hope, I Promise You!, by The Saker
The Unz Review - Jan 20th 2021 8:36pm ESTToday 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 ESTDonald 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 ESTDavid 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 ESTHillary & 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 ESTThough 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 ESTThat 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 ESTCasino 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 ESTMany 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 ESTWith 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 ESTThe 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 ESTIn 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 ESTThe 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 ESTScience 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 ESTAlthough 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 ESTThe 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…
Are We All ‘Domestic Terrorists’?, by Jared Taylor
The Unz Review - Jan 13th 2021 4:09pm ESTJoe Biden has the people who took over the Capitol on Jan. 6 figured out. In just two days, he had them pegged for “a bunch of thugs, insurrectionists, white supremacists, and anti-Semites, and it’s not enough.” Not enough? He also said they were “domestic terrorists.” Senators Charles Schumer and Lindsay Graham, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer,…
Why Does the US Department of Justice Want to Worsen the Split in the US Population?, by Paul Craig Roberts
The Unz Review - Jan 13th 2021 8:18am ESTThe initial charges against those few who entered the Capitol during the Trump rally were “entering a restricted building without permission and engaging in disorderly conduct while inside.” This charge does not carry sufficient punishment for the kind of example the Establishment intends to make of Trump supporters. Michael Sherwin, the acting U.S. attorney for…
Sex Differences, Again, by James Thompson
The Unz Review - Jan 12th 2021 9:12am ESTYou know the story, but here we go again. The standard account of sex differences in intelligence is that there aren’t any. Or not significant ones, or perhaps some slight ones, but they counter-balance each other. The standard account usually goes on to concede that males are more variable than females, that is to say,…
In Search of Enemies, by Philip Giraldi
The Unz Review - Jan 12th 2021 12:00am ESTWhat occurred at the United States Capitol last week was surely reprehensible, but to my mind the real enduring damage that was done to our form of government took place in a basement in Wilmington Delaware where president-designate Joe Biden was putting together some of the final pieces of his foreign policy and national security…
Exploiting the Capitol Riot to Kill Trump, by Pat Buchanan
The Unz Review - Jan 12th 2021 12:00am ESTDonald Trump has stumbled and fallen, and the establishment is not going to let slip this last opportunity to stomp him and his movement to death. On Sunday, Speaker Nancy Pelosi issued a startling ultimatum: Either Vice President Mike Pence and the Trump Cabinet invoke the 25th Amendment, declare the president “unfit” for office, and…
The Mob Did Not Win!, by The Saker
The Unz Review - Jan 11th 2021 7:51pm ESTThe mob did not win! This is how the supposedly conservative FoxNews celebrated the supposed defeat of a supposed mob. See for yourself: FoxNews finally showed its true face during the election steal when it declared that Trump had lost the election long before any evidence in support of this thesis materialized. It is now…
Twitter’s Ban on Trump Will Only Deepen the US Tribal Divide, by Jonathan Cook
The Unz Review - Jan 11th 2021 7:16pm ESTAnyone who believes locking President Donald Trump out of his social media accounts will serve as the first step on the path to healing the political divide in the United States is likely to be in for a bitter disappointment. The flaws in this reasoning need to be peeled away, like the layers of an…
