The British Medical Journal has published an opinion piece that treats criticism of Anthony Fauci as an attack on science and public health themselves. Authors Gavin Yamey and Boghuma Titanji argue that a recent Senate hearing,where Fauci invoked the Fifth Amendment more than a hundred times, will erode trust in vaccines, chill international resear...

There is something inadequate about describing the great authoritarian catastrophes of history entirely in terms of politics. We speak of ideologies, institutions, economic conditions, class conflicts and geopolitical circumstances, all of which certainly matter. Yet when we look closely at the people who rise to the top of particularly brutal syst...

"Intelligence officials have warned that the New IRA is plotting a campaign of violence to force migrants out of Ireland. The Mail has the story: https://www.dailymail.com/news/article-16038861/New-IRA-terrorists-plan-drive-migrants-Ireland-campaign-violence.html The plan by the New IRA – the successor organisation to the Real IRA – comes in the wa...

 Fertility is more than another government statistic. It tells us whether a civilisation still believes in its own future. It tells us whether people have the confidence, money, health and stability to raise the next generation. When the number keeps falling, year after year, something has gone badly wrong. Usually several things have. The con...

Even if we grant, for the sake of argument, that global net zero is desirable in principle, there remains an increasingly uncomfortable question: is it actually going to happen? The latest global energy figures make that question difficult to avoid. As Macrobusiness notes, citing the 2026 Statistical Review of World Energy, global consumption of oi...

Of all the political blunders Anthony Albanese might reasonably have expected to confront as Prime Minister, explaining whether he made a joke about the breasts of Japan's first female prime minister surely cannot have ranked highly on the list. Yet here we are. Anthony Albanese is facing renewed criticism over comments made during a podcast appear...

 Arizona State University, one of the largest public universities in the country, offers a revealing snapshot of priorities in its fall 2026 course catalogue. Students can choose from eight classes with witchcraft, magic, or the occult in the title. Christianity receives exactly one. That disparity is not a minor scheduling quirk. It is a sign...

Beneath the usual headlines about unemployment rates, interest rates and monthly payroll numbers, something potentially much more important has been happening in the American labour market. After years in which employment growth among the foreign-born population frequently overshadowed employment growth among native-born Americans, the pattern has ...

The latest Newspoll has delivered the verdict Australians have been muttering into their petrol receipts for months: Labor's primary vote has slumped to 29 per cent. That is the lowest level since June 2013, when Julia Gillard was still clinging to the Lodge and the party was about to perform one of its more memorable acts of political self-harm. A...

There is an old warning that those who sow the wind shall reap the whirlwind: Hosea 8:7. It is both a prediction of cosmic justice as well as a description of strategic cause and effect. Actions that ignore constraints, timelines, and second-order consequences tend to produce results larger, more violent, and less controllable than the original int...

For most people, nuclear strategy still evokes the stark logic of the Cold War. The United States and Soviet Union possessed enormous arsenals capable of destroying one another, and precisely because the consequences of nuclear war were so appalling, the weapons existed primarily to ensure that they were never used. Deterrence rested upon the knowl...

The traditional science journal is dying, and not only from the ideological capture that has hollowed out its credibility. It is also being overtaken by simpler, faster, and more open forms of communication that no longer require its expensive gatekeeping apparatus. The prestige titles still command attention, but the model that sustained them, slo...

Footage circulating from the North African desert shows long columns of sub-Saharan men moving under apparent military escort. Estimates vary, some running into the tens of thousands. Commentators claim Algerian forces are directing the flow toward the coast and the Moroccan frontier. Whether every detail holds under scrutiny, the pattern is alread...

The charge is blunt: the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) has a strategy to destroy the white race, and they say so openly. The claim circulates widely on the Right, often tied to viral clips and the organisation's own language about race. It deserves examination on the evidence rather than reflex. Official DSA platforms do not openly call fo...

In late July 2026, tens of thousands of mostly male migrants swam from Morocco into the Spanish enclave of Ceuta after a Supreme Court ruling limited immediate returns. The city of roughly 84,000 people was overwhelmed. Most of the arrivals have since been pushed back, but thousands remain on the streets, beaches, and outskirts. Among them are far ...

One of the great political sleights of hand of the post-war era has been the assumption that political authority becomes more enlightened as it becomes more distant from the people subjected to it. Local government is regarded as parochial, national government as dangerously nationalistic, while international government is supposedly enlightened, h...

Life is full of disappointments large and small. There are illnesses, financial troubles, family worries, political disasters and the knowledge, increasingly difficult to avoid as one grows older, that time moves in only one direction. Then there are the tiny irritations that should mean almost nothing but somehow manage to darken an entire afterno...

You have been alone on the island for months. The shelter is serviceable, the fishing net works more often than not, and the coconut palms give up their fruit if you are patient and careful with the climb. Survival is no longer the daily emergency it once was. It is merely the daily grind. You eat, you sleep, you repair the roof when the wind takes...

There is a particular hunger on the contemporary Left that reveals itself most clearly when someone they dislike dies. The body is still warm, the family still reeling, and already the digital crowd gathers to dance. Charlie Kirk's death produced a chorus of "Bye, Nazi b**ch." Lindsey Graham's end was met with open celebration. When Ann Widdecombe ...

There is a false choice currently dominating the culture war. On one side stands gender ideology, which treats "man" and "woman" as fluid identities, self-declared and endlessly revisable. On the other stands what might be called sex ideology, which insists that the only solid ground is biological sex, chromosomes, gametes, reproductive anatomy, an...
