The Department of Homeland Security Is Paying Deranged Leftists to Find A Way to Make You Change Your Political Beliefs, by Eric Striker
The Unz Review - Feb 19th 2021 8:36am ESTFresh off a summer of prolonged murder and arson organized by leftists, the Department of Homeland Security announced the lucky winners of its “domestic terrorism prevention” grant system last September.

Is Biden Prepared to Lose Afghanistan?, by Pat Buchanan
The Unz Review - Feb 19th 2021 12:00am ESTIs President Joe Biden prepared to preside over the worst U.S. strategic defeat since the fall of Saigon in 1975?

The Pale Male Paradox: How White Men Achieve Most and Are Vilified Worst, by Tobias Langdon
The Unz Review - Feb 18th 2021 7:36pm ESTIt’s one of the most interesting, enlightening and eye-opening books I’ve ever read: Simon Winchester’s Exactly: How Precision Engineers Created the Modern World (2018). Winchester tells a story of astonishing ingenuity, intelligence and effort from the steam-engine (44) to the “extreme ultraviolet” laser (296). And it’s almost exclusively a story of stale pale males—of White…
The Decline of the West: American Education Surrenders to “Equity”, by Philip Giraldi
The Unz Review - Feb 18th 2021 1:36pm ESTIt will be difficult or even impossible to go back to a system where learning is actually a discipline that requires hard work and dedication. Public education in the United States, if measured by results, has been producing graduates that are less competent in language skills and dramatically less well taught in the sciences and…
Obituary for Rush Limbaugh, by Andrew Anglin
The Unz Review - Feb 17th 2021 11:37pm ESTRush Limbaugh has died. Up until this morning, he was probably the most influential man alive. Despite his direct influence waning, he is a man who shaped an entire generation of conservative thought, for better and worse. He was an American icon, he was a genius, he was a sellout and a glutton who wasn’t…

The Unz Review - Feb 17th 2021 1:21pm ESTLast week we traced the necessary historical and geopolitical steps to understand Why Russia is driving the West crazy. And then, last Friday, right before the start of the Year of the Metal Ox, came the bombshell, delivered with customary aplomb by Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.

AP and Atlantic Council Anoint Me “COVID Conspiracy Super-Spreader”— and Erase Ron Unz, by Kevin Barrett
The Unz Review - Feb 16th 2021 12:01am ESTThe bad news is that two of the most powerful institutions in America have anointed me a “COVID super-spreader.” The good news is that I stand accused of super-spreading “COVID conspiracy theories,” not the actual disease. But the worse news is that the way things are going, “conspiracy spreaders” may soon be quarantined in COVID…
ICC to Investigate Israeli War Crimes, by Philip Giraldi
The Unz Review - Feb 16th 2021 12:00am ESTWell, as usual, there is good news and bad news.

Trump Acquitted (Again), But Trump Hatred Continues, by Ron Paul
The Unz Review - Feb 15th 2021 11:21am ESTLast week’s second impeachment trial of former President Trump should serve as a warning that something is very wrong in US politics. Far from a measured, well-investigated, rock-solid case against the former president, America was again abused with day after day of character assassination, innuendo, false claims, and even falsified “evidence.” The trial wasn’t intended…
The Great Covid Conspiracy of Silence, by Godfree Roberts
The Unz Review - Feb 15th 2021 11:06am ESTBecause Coronaviruses have been with us for as long as conspiracies, it’s natural for people to link them. But the history of epidemics offers better explanations than any conspiracy theory and useful advice to those who study it and respond appropriately. This is the story of two civilizations: one that studied history and one that…
Trump Just Thumped the Democrats and That’s a “Win” for the Country, by Mike Whitney
The Unz Review - Feb 14th 2021 8:37pm ESTThe Democrats approached the impeachment with the same cockiness that they approach everything. They thought they’d stomp their feet and run around with their hair on fire, and eventually people would see the righteousness of their cause. But it didn’t go down like that. Instead, the Trump defense team opened a can of whoop ass…
A Few Great, Often Forgotten White Moments, by Taylor McClain
The Unz Review - Feb 14th 2021 1:21pm ESTSince this is Black History month (how can we forget?), it is important (since there is no White History month) to pay tribute to the humble contributions that White folks have made to our culture and to Western Civilization. I don’t want to risk bragging by enumerating the obvious and blaring it out like some…

The Unz Review - Feb 14th 2021 1:21pm ESTViolent blacks in New York City are enjoying a golden age for crime after the Mayor’s office and mostly white and Jewish leftists came together to cut funding for the NYPD and release perpetrators without bail.

America’s Catastrophic Disintegration, by Paul Craig Roberts
The Unz Review - Feb 14th 2021 1:21pm ESTWe can observe the disintegration of the United States in the Democrats’ 1930s-style Stalinist Show Trial of Donald Trump. Republicans provided the Senate with video proof that Democrats responded to their 2016 defeat with insurrectionist language whereas Trump did not respond to the stolen 2020 election with insurrectionist language. But in the Democrats’ Show Trial…
Satanic Rituals, by James Thompson
The Unz Review - Feb 13th 2021 9:06am ESTAt a time when there are concerns that Covid is being over-diagnosed, and its impact exaggerated, it is useful to look at another claim: that traumatic events in childhood have a major effect for the rest of a person’s life. On 18 November 1987 a fire at King’s Cross Underground station in London killed 31…

The Unz Review - Feb 13th 2021 6:06am ESTTen years ago, people across the Middle East and North Africa rose up in protest against their rulers, demanding freedom and democracy.

The Unz Review - Feb 12th 2021 7:06pm ESTAXIOS article by Mike Allen, Jim VandeHei: Republicans, long reliant on big business and the rich, see a post-Trump future centered on working class white, Hispanic and Black voters, top GOP officials tell Axios. Why it matters: This is a substantial shift, born of necessity and the post-Trump reality. It would push Republicans further away…
Dark Winter of a Grand Old Party, by Pat Buchanan
The Unz Review - Feb 12th 2021 12:00am ESTIt has been a dreadful three months for the Grand Old Party. On Nov. 3, President Donald Trump seemed to have lost the White House by narrowly losing three crucial blue states he had won in 2016 — Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania — and Georgia and Arizona as well. Trump immediately mounted an acrimonious two-month…

The Tycoon Plot, by Israel Shamir
The Unz Review - Feb 11th 2021 7:36am ESTMillionaires want to make money. Billionaires want to make history. We may add that multi-billionaires take it further; they want mankind to adapt to their needs and wishes. As for people who control trillions, why, they care about our wishes as much as we care about ants while sweeping the garden. We do not apply…
Muslims in France: Some Data, by Guillaume Durocher
The Unz Review - Feb 11th 2021 7:36am ESTIn contrast to the situation in the Anglo-American world – where detailed racial data gives a good sense of most groups’ educational and socio-economic performance, criminality, voting patterns, etc. – there is no systematic collection of such data in France. This means that we have to estimate the general situation using proxy data, such as…

The Unz Review - Feb 10th 2021 1:22pm ESTPeople want to know where the economy is headed. What they should be asking is does the US still have an economy? My answer is no, it doesn’t. I will explain why. For a quarter century I have pointed out the destructive effect of moving American investment and jobs to China and other points abroad….
COVID VACCINE – the Nightmare Scenario, by Mike Whitney
The Unz Review - Feb 10th 2021 12:00am ESTImagine if the Covid vaccine actually contributed to the spread of the infection rather than stopping it. Can you imagine what a catastrophe that would be? Unfortunately, there are signs that that is precisely what is happening in the countries that have implemented the most aggressive vaccination programs. Take Israel, for example. In the last…
