The only people who say they are “beyond left and right” are people their opponents call “far right.” White advocacy is nominally on the Right because it defends hierarchy. Leftism is egalitarian. We defend the interests of our own race, and races are not equal.
However, if someone is not just a race realist but also a white advocate, there is a sense in which he is egalitarian and collectivist. Racial identity means that being part of a people has inherent worth. It means that every white person is important because he or she is white. All are our people. Race is our extended family.
Patriotism is similar. We owe more loyalty to countrymen than to foreigners. Patriotism grew out of racial or ethnic solidarity when European countries were homogenous, but today it is largely an abstraction.
It is easy to sneer at it, but national loyalty is still the bedrock of the international system. Even the most decadent liberal democracy has stern penalties for treason. And — only when it suits them — liberals piously warn us we must protect our “sovereignty” from “foreign interference.”
Historically, nationalism has at least some left-wing elements. It assumes that the masses, or at least the middle class, will participate in politics. The true reactionary Right — philosophers such as Julius Evola and statesmen such as Metternich — were skeptical of nationalism and other movements that promised to give the masses a voice. In the 19th century, nationalists wanted to unite Germany in the name of the people, not to benefit local princes. The Risorgimento in Italy led to a constitutional monarchy with an elected lower house in parliament.
In Maine, of all places, large tracts of beautiful forest are being cleared to make ‘solar farms’ (bullshit term). Maine is the worst state in the union for this. When the free tax money is consumed and the companies fail, Mainers will pay for cleanup of the toxic solar panels destroyed by harsh winter weather. The multiple layers of bullshit on this are surreal — Anthropogenic Global Warming (rebranded as climate change), CO2 (the invisible impossible cause), government can save us hype leading to government boondoggle money and sketchy companies while misleading voters, no guarantees except probable failure and zero restitution.

Talent, competence, little to no government experience, at an age when complex mathematical learning happens fast: These are the factors that will produce excellent results. These guys give me more hope than anything that DOGE will succeed and USA will benefit enormously from it. The best of all possible outcomes is DOGE, plus whatever else Trump does, creates a peaceful Second American Revolution, which remakes our beautiful nation in its own best image and seals the deal by reorganizing government in a way which prevents the grotesque levels of corruption we have been experiencing. Thomas Jefferson called for a revolution every twenty years. Maybe that’s what we will need. I’ll take what we can get. It should be possible, however, that well-programmed AI coupled with open source and procedural transparency will be able to stop massive cheating and corruption within the US government. ABN
Secretary of State Marco Rubio says El Salvador’s president has offered to accept deportees from the U.S. of all nationalities as well as violent criminals now imprisoned in the United States.
The breakthrough from Rubio came as President Trump secured border protection agreements from both Canada and Mexico following a whirlwind day that began with a cratering stock market and the threat of a trade war.
Rubio said President Nayib Bukele ‘has agreed to the most unprecedented, extraordinary, extraordinary migratory agreement anywhere in the world.’
‘He’s also offered to do the same for dangerous criminals currently in custody and serving their sentence in the United States even though they’re U.S. citizens or legal residents.’
Rubio was visiting El Salvador on Monday to press a friendly government to do more to meet Trump administration demands for a major crackdown on immigration amid turmoil in Washington over the status of the government’s main foreign development agency.
‘President Bukele agreed to take back all Salvadoran MS-13 gang members who are in the United States unlawfully. He also promised to accept and incarcerate violent illegal immigrants, including members of the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang, but also criminal illegal migrants from any country,’ State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce said in a statement.
‘And in an extraordinary gesture never before extended by any country, President Bukele offered to house in his jails dangerous American criminals, including U.S. citizens and legal residents,’ Bruce added.
This kind of verbal assault is a species of ‘mad dog’ attack. When repeated often it reminds sane people to say nothing on the topic. When millions engage in the same mad-dog attack for many decades, you find yourself where we are today. ABN
The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) subcommittee announced that it is going to war with National Public Radio (NPR) and the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS)
In two letters sent to the CEOs of the outlets – Katherine Maher and Paula Kerger – Marjorie Taylor Greene, the DOGE subcommittee chair, called on them to testify on Capitol Hill to defend the government funding they use to share ‘systematically biased content.’
Greene said that the department plans to address its concerns about the station’s ‘blatantly ideological and partisan coverage’ at the hearing, scheduled for either the week of March 3 or March 24.
In each letter, the subcommittee gave examples of ‘bias’ reporting done by both NPR and PBS against Elon Musk – the head of DOGE – and cited NPR’s decision to not report on Hunter Biden‘s laptop scandal.
In the one sent to Kerger, the subcommittee said: ‘Recently PBS implied that Mr. Elon Musk made a fascist salute while addressing an inaugural celebration hours after President Donald Trump was sworn into office,’ referring to the Tesla CEO’s hand gesture that’s sparked major controversy online.
‘The characterization was clearly false’.
The letter sent to Maher cited NPR’s decision to not report on a laptop belonging to the former president’s son, which contained data critics claim implicates members of the Biden family in a corruption scandal.
Berliner worked for the outlet from 1999 until April 2024, as he blasted NPR for its far-left political bias, while also referring to the outlet as ‘an assembly line.’
‘There’s an unspoken consensus about the stories we should pursue and how they should be framed,’ Berliner wrote at the time.
‘It’s frictionless—one story after another about instances of supposed racism, transphobia, signs of the climate apocalypse, Israel doing something bad, and the dire threat of Republican policies. It’s almost like an assembly line.’
NPR has potential if their entire staff is thrown out the door. The lying, the lies by omission, the patronizing lefty mind-control, the smugness and also their constant hypnotic use of sing-song and childish voices appears designed to infantilize listeners. I am a big fan of voice variety and love all ways people speak. But NPR’s exclusive use of weak voices, beta-male voices, occasional strong female voices, is a clear attempt to lull listeners into a passive state and trick them into believing they know something when they don’t. I fully agree with Berliner in the highlight above. NPR’s content largely sucks, the speakers mostly suck, the politics is disgusting for a station receiving US tax dollars. It is a negative use of money and time when it could be made positive with new people. ABN
WASHINGTON — President Trump signed an executive order Monday to create a sovereign US wealth fund — saying that TikTok may become one of its first acquisitions.
The world’s largest and wealthiest sovereign funds are owned by China and resource-rich countries like Norway and Middle Eastern emirates.
“Other countries have sovereign wealth funds, and they’re much smaller countries, and they’re not the United States,” Trump said.
“As an example, TikTok, we’re going to be doing something perhaps … and we might put that in the sovereign wealth fund, whatever we make, or if we do a partnership with very wealthy people — a lot of options, but we could put that as an example in the fund.
“We have a lot of other things that we can put in the fund.”
“We’re going to stand this thing up in the next 12 months. We are going to monetize the asset side of the US balance sheet for the American people. We are going to put the assets to work,” Bessent said.
“And I think it’s going to be very exciting. We’ve studied best practices that’s done around the world. It will be a combination of liquid assets, assets that we have in this country as we work, work to bring them out for the American people.”
Lutnick added that “the extraordinary size and scale of the US government, and the business it does with companies should create value for American citizens.”
