Being a part of the so-called ‘legacy media’ is good work if you can get it. The success middling intellects such as Michelle Malkin–who is still for some reason popular despite being a neocon who for over a decade unfailingly supported the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan [and also the Patriot Act, war on terror–literally… Continue reading The Decline of Legacy Conservatism

A common refrain for the past couple years or so is that left-wing billionaires such as George Soros are secretly funding protests and radicalized groups, such as BLM and antifa, and or are helping to engender social unrest, such as most recently in regard to protests over George Floyd’s death.
