‘The fact of the matter is that the apocalyptic scenario Democrats warned of in case Donald Trump was re-elected never materialized. After some market turmoil caused by President Trump’s tariff frenzy in the spring, things smoothed out real quick.

‘To speak the obvious about demographic transformation, public safety, or cultural integration is to provoke a moral tempest that sweeps aside all debate and casts every doubt into the abyss of social damnation. This is not mere rhetorical excess. It is the lived reality of German public discourse in 2025, where statistical facts about migration are treated as heresy…’

‘“Religious Zionism”…keeps unsettling end-of-history pieties about confining faith and observance to the margins of the public square and smoothing out the nation state’s ethno-religious edges. Yet instead of cool-headed assessments precisely when it holds the keys to governability…the rise of this national-religious bloc of parties is often met by incurious moral hysteria.’
‘The conundrum, as stated above, is that Taiwan is treated by a great part of the international community as if it were a country of its own.’
The Daily Beast has reached new depths of Trump Derangement Syndrome, alleging that Donald Trump’s latest TIME magazine cover was inspired by a 1963 Newsweek portrait of Nazi industrialist Alfred Krupp—based solely on an Instagram ‘like’ by the photographer. TIME has dismissed the claim as ‘completely untrue’ and ‘reckless’.

Each week, my messaging apps are drowning in document leaks and the latest stories of who is sleeping with whom and which EP aide is buying drugs off the guy in Strasbourg.’

‘The crisis has made Hungary’s relationship with Israel stronger than ever before.’
‘If we are truly conservatives today, then we must want to revolt against this contemporary, anti-conservative world. Does anyone seriously believe that Burke would want to conserve what we have right now?’

‘The problem is that the French government is spending too much money. In August of this year, just before the government collapsed, Finance Minister Eric Lombard warned that if the country did not get its act together, it would end up going to the IMF for a bailout.’
‘Scratch below the surface of the immigration crisis and what you find is a volatile combination of fear and disgust, driven by deeper anxieties over corruption and betrayal. At its centre is an imperilled idea of Britishness and cultural purity.’
‘Under Labour Britain has marginalized itself into irrelevance. Not through accident or happenstance but as a deliberate policy choice.’
