In the final weeks of the Biden administration, senior advisors drafted a White House memo that laid out a clear strategy: expand Temporary Protected Status (TPS) to cover more than three million noncitizens. The document, later obtained by Sen. Eric Schmitt (R-Mo.) and reported by Fox News, was not a routine policy discussion. It was a calculated ...

Socialist millionaire, then-Beatle, John Lennon, said it plainly in a June 1968 interview: the people running things are not simply cynical or corrupt. They are madmen pursuing mad ends. He added that he had sensed it since adolescence, and that expressing the observation risked being labelled insane himself. That remains one of the clearer things ...

 This line, frequently attributed to Henry Kissinger, has circulated for decades in discussions of power, resources, and geopolitics. Whether he actually said the precise words remains disputed: his office has denied it, though contemporary reporting from the 1970s attributed similar views to him through aides. The exact provenance matters les...

Since Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945, the world has lived under one of history's most remarkable strategic arrangements. Nuclear weapons have existed for more than eighty years, yet not a single nation has used one in warfare since the Second World War. During those decades humanity has fought countless conventional wars, endured proxy conflicts, t...

That Substack essay from The Truth About Cancer crew lays out an argument that's become impossible to dismiss now that the official narrative has collapsed under its own weight. The core thesis is straightforward: the COVID mRNA shots were never traditional vaccines, they were gene therapy products deployed at planetary scale, and the entire operat...

James Paterson has sounded the alarm. The senior Liberal senator warns that populism, especially of the Pauline Hanson variety, risks trashing the institutions that underpin the Australian way of life. Universities must open their doors to conservatives, judges must reconnect with public expectations, and voters must be cautioned that backing anti-...

The long march through the institutions was never a conspiracy theory. It was a deliberate strategy, articulated by radicals who understood that capturing the cultural high ground mattered more than winning the next election. Rudi Dutschke's slogan described a patient infiltration of universities, schools, media, the public service, and eventually ...

For more than five years the public was told the science was settled. SARS-CoV-2 could not have come from a laboratory. The paper that sealed that verdict, The Proximal Origin of SARS-CoV-2, was treated as definitive. Anyone who questioned it was branded a conspiracy theorist, deplatformed, or professionally punished. Government officials pointed t...

The political class is intent on obscuring the debate on Australia's migration program. This came up again this week when former Deputy Secretary of the Department of Immigration Abul Rizvi told 3AW's Tom Elliott that net overseas migration (NOM) currently sits at 300,000, and that the IPA incorrectly put that figure near 500,000. To correct Rizvi:...

One of the oldest truths of strategy is that geography shapes power. For decades, Iran's greatest strategic advantage has not been its economy or conventional military strength, but its ability to threaten one of the world's most important maritime choke points: the Strait of Hormuz. When roughly a fifth of the world's seaborne oil passes through a...

The world has just been reminded, yet again, that coal is not going away. A nasty conflict in the Persian Gulf has throttled oil and gas supplies into Asia. Fertiliser plants in India and Bangladesh are throttling back or shutting down. Governments that spent years talking about the "energy transition" are suddenly rediscovering the one fuel that i...

Did you hear about the major far-Right terror plot that nearly wiped out 15,000 Muslims at a peaceful gathering in Suffolk last week? Of course you did. It was everywhere. Prime Ministerial statements. Home Secretary solemnly declaring lives had been "undoubtedly" saved. Union leaders, the Muslim Council of Britain, Green MPs, the usual media suspe...

Through the Journalism Assistance Fund, the Albanese Government is handing out $67.6 million to publishers across the country. Successful applicants receive $39,000 for each eligible full-time journalist over three years, with payments continuing until 2028. The government says it is supporting public-interest journalism. That sounds noble enough. ...

A recent Macrobusiness article (linked below), warns that neoliberalism is slowly sinking the democratic ship. It highlights how market-oriented policies, globalisation, and elite consensus have hollowed out national sovereignty, widened inequality, and left ordinary citizens feeling powerless as their leaders appear more loyal to international cap...

Miyamoto Musashi's The Book of Five Rings is often misunderstood. Many people buy it expecting a manual on sword fighting. It is that, but it is also something much broader: a philosophy of disciplined excellence. That is why it continues to be read by military officers, athletes, entrepreneurs, executives, and even some MBA programs. It belongs al...

Germany, once a symbol of European order and prosperity, is confronting a grim reality documented in its own crime statistics. In 2025, there were 751 recorded victims of gang rape. Of the suspects, a record-high 53%, 574 individuals, were non-German citizens. Eighty percent of the victims were German citizens. These figures, released in response t...

There was a time when asking, "What is the greatest film ever made?" almost always produced the same answer: Citizen Kane (1941). For decades it topped critics' polls, film school syllabuses, and scholarly rankings. Although newer films have challenged its position in recent years, its influence remains immense. The question for young Australians t...

The Spectator Australia has highlighted a chilling report from a joint investigation by The Insider, Der Spiegel, and Le Monde. Leaked documents from secret Russo-Chinese military conferences reveal detailed plans by Chinese engineers to jam, hack, and ultimately destroy Elon Musk's Starlink satellite constellation. Presented to Russian counterpart...

There is a pattern that keeps repeating itself across Western democracies, and it is more unsettling than ordinary political failure. Large numbers of people continue to vote for parties and leaders whose policies demonstrably harm their economic security, cultural cohesion, physical safety, and long-term prospects. The harm is not subtle. It shows...

Third Worldism is not merely a foreign policy posture or a rhetorical flourish. It is a total moral and political operating system. Its central claim is simple and corrosive: the fundamental division in the world is between a guilty, dominating North (the West), and an innocent, dominated South. Every conflict, every disparity, every grievance is r...
