Robert Conquest’s 1985 tome What To Do When The Russians Come is eerily prescient. In The Worthy House, Charles Haywood argues that, like the Soviets, we are in the grip of a poisonous utopian ideology. We need merely substitute “woke” for “Marxist-Leninist” and we see a society almost indistinguishable from what Conquest describes.

The second Trump Administration is succeeding magnificently in driving DEI/wokist policies and ideology out of the U.S. government and any organization receiving federal funds, writes Roger Kimball at American Greatness. From the FBI cutting ties to the extreme-left Southern Poverty Law Center to newly named Secretary of War Pete Hegseth declaring the U.S. military to be no place for “dudes in dresses”, Kimball proclaims – perhaps a tad prematurely – that DEI in government is dead but just doesn’t know it yet.
