A Great Start, but Will it Last?

The Blade of Perseus
August 7, 2025
Read The Full Story

The U.S., writes Victor Davis Hanson in The Blade of Perseus, is in a counter-revolution whose fate will likely be decided by the 2026 midterm elections and state of the American economy. The flagbearer and instigator-in-chief is, of course, President Donald Trump, whose sweeping and fearless approach to illegal immigration, international trade, the Middle East, DEI/wokism, climate/energy, the federal bureaucracy and other areas aims to overcome 70 years of leftist revolution and Republican Party acquiescence.

Police “deaf, dumb and blind” Regarding Criminals “of a diverse nature”

Frank Haviland in The European Conservative decries the UK’s grotesque inversion of criminal enforcement. The constabulary now ignore the real bad guys and “generally come down mighty hard on” victims, Haviland notes. In one recent case, Scottish teen-ager Mayah Sommers was arrested and charged with possessing a hatchet and a knife to defend herself and her sister from the attentions of “Bulgarian family man” Fatos Ali Dumana – actually a self-described “Gypsy gangster” who writes of women as “whores”.

The Coming Battle for New York City

How to beat anti-Semitic socialist Muslim Zohran Mamdani in New York’s next mayoral race? It will not be easy, concludes Spencer Neale in The American Conservative, with a nationally disgraced Democratic ex-governor, an (allegedly) corrupt Democratic/Independent incumbent and perennial Republican loser Curtis Sliwa all vying for the anti-Mamdani vote. They’d better get themselves together: this is one municipal election that’s more important than the national elections of many countries.

The Rising Tide of Normality as Depicted in Hollywood Horror Flicks

Also in The American Conservative, Nora Kenney observes further pushback against the wokist inversion-of-everything in the recently released horror movie Weapons. Director Zach Cregger upends the wokist fashion of valorizing “otherness” (which, hence, also normalized criminality while criminalizing normality). Cregger’s straight, white, male, blue-collar protagonist does so convincingly enough to embolden Kenney to call Weapons part of a “post-woke cultural shift”.

The Eurocrats Come for Conservative Journalists

In The European Conservative, Gaetano Masciullo unmasks the oxymoronically named European Media Freedom Act, whose implementation this month is turning out to include comprehensive surveillance powers over journalists while they work and the by-now-familiar Orwellian Newspeak that rationalizes censorship targeting conservatives as being all about combating “misinformation”, “xenophobia” and, of course, “racism”. Masciullo poses the question first asked by the Roman Juvenal: “But who watches the watchmen?”
