“Papers, please!” Real Borders Make a Comeback in the EU

The European Conservative
July 9, 2025
Read The Full Story

The 1985 “Schengen” agreement was hailed as the gateway to an eternal utopia of open borders throughout a Europe of 29 countries and 450 million people. Noting the rising number of countries defying EU regulations and restoring national border controls, Lauren Smith in The European Conservative wonders whether the whole Schengen experiment is unravelling under the stresses of uncontrolled illegal migration, crime and social decay.

“Shocking heap of human wreckage”

City Journal’s Ryan Thorpe and Christopher Rufo investigate the personal destruction wrought by (genuinely) far-right influencer Nicholas Fuentes. The founder of “Groypers” – a cult-like following of angry young men who will do virtually anything for Fuentes – doesn’t just hate Jews, praise Hitler and Stalin, and oppose inter-racial marriage. As Thorpe and Rufo report, Fuentes betrays his own followers, lies about how he uses the money supporters send him, and defends pedophiles.

Give Them an Inch, Mark Carney, and They’ll Come for the Whole Candy Store

In a cautionary tale with pointed lessons for Canada’s deepening swoon towards China, James E. Fanell in American Greatness chronicles how the Communist regime shamelessly exploited its invitation to the biennial RIMPAC international naval exercises off Hawaii to both gather intelligence and humiliate its U.S. hosts and their Asian allies – brusquely sailing five armed warships right into Pearl Harbour. Donald Trump uninvited the Chinese in 2018, and Fanell urges the U.S. President not to give in to the current Chinese propaganda effort to relent this year.

“The UN is one big scam”

Daniel Greenfield cheers UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres’ recent warning the institution is facing “imminent financial collapse” – while lamenting that the claim is a lie. Why Greenfield’s glee? As he notes in The Jewish Edition, the UN spends an insane 25 percent of its enormous budget on air travel – sometimes more than on AIDS or malaria programs. Greenfield’s suggestion: “Let the UN leave New York and take its headquarters down to whichever Third World hellhole it’s sending money to.”

Radical Transgenderism Takes Another Hit

The 11,000-member American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) – which includes hundreds of Canadian members – “has come out unequivocally against ‘gender-affirming’ surgeries in adolescents under age 19,” writes Leor Sapir in City Journal. The ASPS has also joined a growing number of international organizations in warning about the potential physical and psychological damage to children and teens of puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones.

[Editor’s note: Two days after the ASPS’s announcement, the American Medical Association announces it now agrees that gender-altering “surgical interventions in minors should be generally deferred to adulthood.”]
