Ever since I joined the public conversation as a conservative writer, I’ve been called a fascist and a Nazi by smug, liberal know-nothings, sublimely confident of the truth of their ill-informed prejudices. So wrote Jonah Goldberg, in response to slander, in his George W. Bush-era Liberal Fascism .
Goldberg has recently engaged in some sublimely-confident slanders of his own, scorning Trump-supporting Republican Party because of “its descent into asininity.” He anticipates Trump’s return as the party’s nominee in 2024, and the only way to head off that nightmare is another Democratic presidency that will protract the catastrophic progressive transformation of the country into a North American Venezuela. In a recent article in The Dispatch , Goldberg recommends punishing Republicans by forming a third party that can “cause the GOP some pain” in “the role of spoiler… garnering enough conservative votes in the general election to throw the election to the Democrat.”
Because Plan A for #NeverTrumpers (a de-Trumpified GOP) has proved unworkable, they focus instead on their Plan B, which corresponds uncannily to the Democrats’ Plan A, i.e. to widen and deepen Democrats’ authoritarian grip on the American people by any means necessary. Bill Kristol, for instance, “in light of the Republican party’s lunatic spiral,” reportedly “is hoping for Biden’s success .” We hope not “success” like the one Biden claimed for his Afghan evacuation. Mona Charen as well, because the “Republican party… has become a conspiracy of liars ,” intends to vote for Terry McAuliffe in Virginia’s governor’s race. But if she means to make the point she’s got no use for liars, is voting for a hack rivaled only by Adam Schiff as the greatest producer of BS in American politics the most effective way to say it?
It’s bad enough that Goldberg and company insult deplorables as asinine and lunatic, but he does it with the same puritan small-mindedness as progressives who regard all opinions other than their own the product of sheer wickedness. See how Goldberg gripes that, “Most elected Republicans no longer denounce [Trump’s] election lies and refuse to tell the truth about Biden’s victory.” In other […]

We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
