Orthodoxy and sovereignty strike back. Alexander Dugin sees George Simion’s first-round win in Romania’s presidential election as another spark in Europe’s conservative surge and a sign of the nation’s Orthodox revival.

The Terminal Rot in Corporate America
Corporate America took advantage of the Covid shortages and fiscal largesse to profiteer on a scale criminals could only dream of. One of humanity’s most pernicious traits is the ease with which we habituate to conditions over time that we would have rejected out of hand if the transition…
The Inspiring Legacy of Anti-War Conservatism
Amid continued American entanglements in the Middle East, neoconservative commentators seek to shore up the tired status quo by delegitimizing foreign policy dissent. Nowhere is this more evident than on the ever-radioactive issue of the U.S. relationship with Israel. Fearing an above-board debate, these gatekeepers have marshaled obscurantist phrases…

From One Fake Left-Wing Hysteria to the Next
The decade-old age of fables like Russian collusion, laptop disinformation, or the pangolin/bat cause of Covid is not over; it is just hitting midstream. For much of April, amid stock downturns, in the classical paranoid style, we were assured by the Wall Street Journal news reporters and the liberal…
Why Doesn’t the ‘Deal-Maker’ Close the Deal?
The story, both on Ukraine and Iran, is that President Trump wants a ‘deal’ – and both deals are available – yet he seems nonetheless to have boxed himself in. Trump presents his Administration as being something rougher, meaner, and far less sentimental. It aspires to emerge, apparently, as also…
