The Chinese Century from the German standpoint is just losing 400,000 manufacturing jobs to China in the span of 5 years. The Federation of German Industries is now calling for EU tariffs on China, and a recent policy paper, cited by Chancellor Merz and his cabinet members, recommends a rate of 30-50% tariffs by sector. As usual, the bureaucrats and experts come too late to the realizations Donald Trump had when he was still a sensitive young man handelsblatt.com/politik/deu…

Liberals express more resentment towards sucessful people:
Almost never have had more contempt for Democrats than I do today. Watching their naked envy makes my skin crawl.

The Iraq war was a massive wealth transfer from Boomers to Gen X and in particular Millennial white men. What can't be quantified is post-service benefits like veteran employment preferences and the expanded 9/11 GI bill which help a lot when so many entry-level jobs are gatekept from young white men with discriminately-enforced experience/credentials requirements. It's a good thing that trillions have been earmarked for veteran benefits, as long as that money isn't in the hands of olds and women.
The Coalition Provisional Authority in Iraq had 21 year olds running Iraq's military financing and 24 year olds setting up the new Baghdad stock exchange. "the Green Zone felt a bit like the Peace Corps, for people who think the Peace Corps is a communist plot."

China's Conservative Revolution (4⭐️) The book seeks to present the post-1927 Kuomintang as a party advancing a conservative revolutionary program: seeking to create an exclusive loyalty surrounding state and nation, relying on state control of citizens and seeking to mobilise

1/8 I just finished reading Chris Miller's excellent book on the collapse of the Soviet Economy. Some people might think that the topic is interesting, but largely irrelevant to global economic conditions today. They would be mistaken. This is a very relevant book. @crmiller1

It's the people who implore Israel to exercise self-restraint toward civilians that reinforce potent postwar mythologies about an intrinsic Jewish innocence or nobility of character, whether intended or not. This is where liberal Zionists and anti-Zionists converge, despite their contrasting motives. They both share the assumption that Jews must be held to exceptionally high moral standards. Standards which aren't applied to, say, Sudanese rebel groups. Anti-Zionism then becomes a vehicle for reproducing Holocaustianity with only the signs and symbols reversed.
Sorry kids, but Israel's overreaction in Gaza has effectively de-valued your institution and the legacy of the Holocaust. Jews are now what they many of their leaders have publicly said they sought: normal, just like the rest of us.

FDR was fishing buddies with future British Fascist Sir Oswald Mosley (Feb. 1926)... In mid-1920s, the future American president and a rising British political figure briefly moved in the same elite social circles. During this period, Franklin D. Roosevelt and Sir Oswald Mosley shared casual encounters, including leisure activities like fishing, at a time when Mosley was still viewed as a charismatic reformer rather than a radical. In 1926, Mosley was a Member of Parliament pushing for economic modernization and social welfare—positions that, on the surface, overlapped with ideas Roosevelt would later champion during the New Deal. Their acquaintance reflected how fluid political identities could be in the interwar years, before ideologies hardened and reputations calcified. The paths of the two men soon diverged dramatically. Roosevelt went on to lead the United States through the Great Depression and World War II, becoming a symbol of democratic resilience. Mosley, by contrast, founded the British Union of Fascists in the 1930s and became one of Europe’s most notorious authoritarian figures. In 1940, while Roosevelt prepared the U.S. for war against fascism, Mosley was imprisoned by the British government without trial under emergency wartime powers—an extraordinary reversal of fortune for two men once connected by little more than conversation and a fishing line. © Vintage American Photos #archaeohistories

This is the point that I think no one on the left and surprisingly few on the right get. At the margin each high-energy American super-genius is creating a lot of wealth. But the condition of possibility for that is an enormous law-abiding, honorable, individualist working class.
the correct benchmark for the bottom 20% it a country isn’t the elite, it’s the bottom 20% of other countries. by that metric the american lower class is actually remarkable. i immigrated here at age 4, and i could never bring myself to look down on them like this.

OFAC is an agency within the Treasury Department which enforces sanction law. The reason this investigation is possible is because OFAC has unparalleled financial intelligence and near limitless subpoena power globally. Yes, not just American banks but any bank operating within the U.S. dollar nexus (nearly every major international bank.) Any country can impose sanctions but only the United States has at its disposal the devastating weapon of secondary sanctions, e.g. a European bank or a Chinese bank will not provide banking services to an individual/group/state subject to American secondary sanctions because they'd rather maintain the privilege of access to the U.S. market and the dollar system. Keep that in mind when someone tells you that "dismantling" the American empire will somehow solve anything. A weakened America would only leave us helpless as foreign adversaries fund and abet homegrown radical leftists.
🚨 EXCLUSIVE @FoxNews Digital: Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control has subpoenaed Marxist influencer Hasan Piker @HasanTheHun and pro-communist @CodePink cofounder @MedeaBenjamin, as part of a widening investigation into whether U.S. organizations and leaders violated U.S. laws and sanctions in supporting Cuba's communist regime. My latest for Fox News Digital: foxnews.com/politics/feds-su… Why does this matter? The story goes beyond Cuba travel. Investigators are examining whether U.S.-based activists, nonprofits and influencers are coordinating logistics, financing, communications or material support with entities linked to a U.S.-designated state sponsor of terrorism, the Communist Party of Cuba, or other foreign actors, like Neville Roy Singham, an American expatriate businesman living in Shanghai. Piker, Benjamin, Evans, CodePink and People's Forum have defended their work with Cuba as humanitarian aid. Singham has pumped $285 billion into pro-communist orgs in the U.S., like his wife Jodie Evan's CodePink, @PeoplesForumNYC and other groups that enjoy nonprofit benefits in the U.S. while supporting China's geostrategic agenda and its allies leading Cuba, Iran, North Korea and elsewhere. The probe now reportedly spans as many as 40 individuals and a larger network of organizations tied to pro-Cuba, pro-China and anti-U.S. activism. Officials across Treasury, Justice and State are increasingly focused on what they describe as malign foreign influence operations operating inside the United States — including efforts tied to political extremism, propaganda networks and support structures connected to authoritarian regimes. *** As a side story, my reporting led to something unexpectedly human: getting eyes on Kaya, Hasan Piker’s celebrity dog, who has become the subject of the online campaign over allegations involving shock collar training. Piker denies any wrongdoing. I think a lot of people will appreciate seeing Kaya. In this photo, Piker stands outside his house in West Hollywood earlier this month and directs Kaya with his finger to go back inside the house, without saying a word to her. 🧵 More details from the investigation (and more bonus photos of our Kaya sighting) in the thread below. @DataRepublican @FoxNewsPolitics

Because compulsive seething about your former oppressors is something the Semite races are prone to do, not the model Christian. For Burckhardt, the "frightful strength" of Christianity lies in the martyr's spiritual journey of escape from persecution to then become the persecutor himself. Trump recently captured it well: "I was the hunted, now I am the hunter."
Why is it that Pontius Pilate is not more of a villain in Christian history? When reading the New Testament for the first time, I was shocked to see that Pilate is depicted more as doing his Roman duty and not as a satanic force

Dr. Paul Gottfried is the editor-in-chief of @chroniclesmag. He joins me for a broad discussion on American politics. (2:00) Chronicles updates (7:01) What does Dr. Gottfried make of Trump's second term? (12:06) Is recent political polarization Trump's fault? (15:54) Reflecting on the 2024 election (19:17) Will the Democrats moderate? (23:47) The pre-Trump GOP was terrible on immigration (25:10) Wokeness is not in retreat In the second half of the show (available to subscribers, link in reply), I ask Dr. Gottfried whether he believes the leftward cultural drift we’ve witnessed for many decades will continue – and if so, which remaining taboos will be violated. Switching gears, I ask Dr. Gottfried about his thoughts on Thomas Massie (the episode was recorded Tuesday afternoon, before his primary loss). We talk about Ken Paxton. I ask Dr. Gottfried if he has a shot. Later, we discuss 2028, considering Vance, Rubio, and DeSantis. Toward the end of the show, we give the neoconservatives a well-deserved drubbing, because it wouldn’t be an interview with Dr. Gottfried if we didn’t.

The Islamic Center was built on stolen land. The indigenous fighters of San Diego (both Latinx 🇲🇽) were simply a part of the resistance. They were tired of living next to this settler-colonial, theocratic entity (Mosque) all while forcibly existing in an open-air concentration camp (California). You don't get to choose how people resist. Have you bigots learned nothing from Palestine? Or are you Jewish or something?

Blockbuster Gigachad fought for the White race. He defended Evropa. Apologize immediately
This in response to a post about how people don't actually want Blockbuster back. To this guy, this abandons our civilization's core, which is a video rental store. Apparently, our future depends on the restoration of Blockbuster.

Two new independent studies show the positive impact data centers are making across the US. PwC’s report into their economic impact found that in 2024, data centers contributed 5.5M jobs in the US (up 17% from 4.7m in 23) & $927BN to US GDP (up 21% from $768BN). And E3’s report finds that data centers have not historically raised electricity costs for American families, and that data center investment is strengthening America’s energy infrastructure by modernizing aging grids & adding new clean energy generation. We are in the middle of an infrastructure boom that is creating well-paid, skilled jobs across the US and laying the foundations for the future of the economy. 🔗 E3 report: ethree.com/electricity-rate-… 🔗 PwC study: static1.squarespace.com/stat…
