In his famous 1992 “Culture War” speech at the Republican National Convention, Pat Buchanan mocked the Democrat Convention that year: “My friends, like many of you last month, I watched that giant masquerade ball up at Madison Square Garden, where 20,000 liberals and radicals came dressed up as moderates and centrists in the greatest single exhibition of cross-dressing in American political history.”

Thirty-two years later, “cross-dressing” takes on a disturbing new meaning. Still, the costumes worked. Bill Clinton won, ended the “Reagan Revolution,” and stopped the permanent shift to the Right many movement conservatives predicted. Especially because of the failure to control mass immigration, the 49-state Republican majority Ronald Reagan won in his second term was finished by the end of the century, and Barack Obama won on a promise to transform America. The nation of Reagan and Nixon is gone forever.

This year’s Democrat convention may be a repeat. Just a few weeks after confident Republican delegates renominated Donald Trump to face an ailing Joe Biden, exultant Democrats crowned Kamala Harris, whose sex and race are central to her career and candidacy. One of the most unpopular vice presidents in modern history, she is now leading most polls, thanks to determined media protection and a skillful basement campaign, in which she does not take questions or face hostile audiences. Instead, reporters marvel at her campaign’s “joy,” and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz serves as the pathetic white sidekick straight out of a TV commercial. This is not just the usual campaign pablum of sticking to cliches and avoiding specifics; Vice President Harris refuses to list policies at all. No center-right candidate could wage such an empty campaign and count on the media for adoring coverage and protection from scrutiny.

Delegates to the convention worked hard to look moderate. Delegates flew American flags, chanted “U-S-A” and held USA signs. Tim Walz played up his (sometimes exaggerated) army record and the DNC brought out the football team he coached (well, assistant coached). Kamala Harris even claimed to want border security. There was just enough to tempt guilty conservatives into voting Democrat. Adam Kinzinger helped as the perennial former Republican “true conservative” who suddenly decides to endorse the Left (and take a job with the media), just as former Republican chairman Michael Steele did.

Crossdressing can’t hide everything, especially the platform. It begins with a “land acknowledgment” that the country was built on “Indigenous homelands.” It’s hard to square this with patriotism because it is essentially admits that America has no right to exist.

The platform says a lot about race, and “Blacks” get reverential upper case. The platform says it will reduce the “racial wealth gap,” which is caused by bias in home appraisals. It promises to give more money to black colleges, and to go easy on drug criminals because prosecution hurts “Black and brown people.” It brags about the number of black judges Joe Biden appointed and rails against violence against transgenders, especially “Black and brown transgender women.” When will Hispanics demand a capital B?

There is an entire section on “racial equity.” This will mean more money for SNAP and EBT, an admission that this is “racial equity,” not just an attack on poverty. “Black and Latino communities” will get “community” loans, whatever those are. “Black and other ‘socially disadvantaged’ farmers” will be forgiven their debts; “socially disadvantaged” means special government handouts.

“To determine how best to right historical wrongs, Democrats support Congress executing a study of reparations and the continuing impacts of slavery,” says the platform. Presumably, Kamala Harris, whose ancestors were not in this country during slavery and may be descended from slave owners, would get a check. JD Vance, brought up in poverty, would write one.

The platform swallows every line about Donald Trump:

Again and again, Trump has shown us who he is on the issue of hate. He rubs shoulders with and encourages white supremacists, even launching his 2024 campaign with a meeting with white supremacist, antisemite, and Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes. He called white supremacist and openly antisemitic Charlottesville protesters “very fine people.” He reportedly thinks Hitler “did some good things” and echoes his hateful rhetoric about immigrants, including that they’re “poisoning the blood of our country.” He will reinstate his disgraceful Muslim ban if he’s elected, continuing his long history of Islamophobia. And he fueled anti-Asian hate as the AANHPI community faced a spike in hate crimes surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic.

This is a remarkable testament to media power. Democrats accept every distortion, years after it has been debunked.

An angry-looking President Joe Biden waved the bloody shirt of Charlottesville:

I ran for president in 2020 because of what I saw at Charlottesville in August of 2017. Extremists coming out of the woods, carrying torches, their veins bulging from their necks, carrying Nazi swastikas and chanting the same exact antisemitic bile that was heard in Germany in the early thirties.

Neo-Nazis, white supremacists and the Ku Klux Klan, so emboldened by a president then in the White House that they saw as an ally. They didn’t even bother to wear their hoods. Hate was on the march in America. . . .

. . . When the president was asked what he thought had happened. Donald Trump said, and I quote, “There were very fine people on both sides.” My god. That’s what he said. That is what he said and what he meant.

Even the liberal site Snopes says Donald Trump did not call “white supremacists” “very fine people.”

President Biden bragged about the CHIPS Act and his supposed success in bringing semiconductor plants back to America. This hasn’t worked because of absurd workforce DEI requirements, but that doesn’t matter because there can be no drawbacks to diversity:

I’m proud to have kept my commitment to appoint the first black woman to the U.S. Supreme Court, Ketanji Brown Jackson, a symbol for every young woman in America that you can do anything. I’m proud I kept my commitment to have an administration that looks like America and that taps into the full talent of our nation. The most diverse cabinet in history, including the first black woman of South Asian descent to serve as vice president — and who will soon serve as the 47th president of the United States.

He is admitting they were appointed because of race and sex. This is offensive when Republicans say it, but praiseworthy when Mr. Biden does.

Joe Biden’s former boss, Barack Obama, was elected because many Americans thought putting a black man in charge would move the country past race. Instead, race relations got worse, but Mr. Obama learned nothing: “No nation, no society, has ever tried to build a democracy as big and as diverse as ours before,” he said. Maybe there’s a reason for that.

His wife’s speech was darker, invoking the “demons of fear, division, and hate that have consumed us.” She insisted that “no one has a monopoly on what it means to be an American — no one!” Anyone can be American. She said President Trump is “doubling down on ugly, misogynistic, racist lies” and added smugly that the presidency could become one of “those black jobs.” Universalism for whites, ethnic narcissism for blacks. It’s futile for Donald Trump to worry about blacks getting good jobs. Michelle Obama’s entire life has been a gift of misplaced charity, and it seems only to have intensified the rage of the privileged.

Oprah Winfrey, who once thought about running for vice president with Donald Trump, also sounded angry. “I’ve seen racism and sexism and income inequality and division. I’ve not only seen it. At times, I have been on the receiving end of it.” This from from a billionaire who used to attend Jeremiah Wright’s church.

The most outrageous appearance was from Al Sharpton, who appeared with the “Central Park Five.” Councilman Yusef Salaam, one of the five, said Donald Trump thinks hate is the animating force in America.

They were “exonerated” in New York City, though the circumstances are deeply disturbing.

For legal reasons, I cite this thread:

Though she has almost nothing in common with the black experience in America, Kamala Harris portrayed herself as an heir of the civil rights movement:

I grew up immersed in the ideals of the Civil Rights Movement. My parents had met at a civil rights gathering. And they made sure we learned about civil rights leaders, including lawyers like Thurgood Marshall and Constance Baker Motley. Those who battled in the courtroom to make real the Promise of America. So, at a young age, I decided I wanted to do that work.

For white Americans who work long hours, have long commutes, and struggle to send their children to safe schools to avoid the disastrous consequences of that movement, these are chilling words. She also called America a “nation of immigrants” and called for an “earned pathway to citizenship.” Amnesty will mean a permanent Democrat majority. However, she promised she would not “play politics with our security,” as if the other party had been in charge of the border the past four years.

With the media covering for her, Kamala Harris is surely favored to win. Whites argue about ideology and what is good for the country. Non-whites don’t. It’s all about what’s good for them. With tribal chieftains such as Al Sharpton on stage, only the most naïve white person can believe that the left-wing activists care about white people at all.

  1. “a permanent demonrat majority”

    1) nothing is “permanent”

    2) one of the first and most obvious preconditions for White survival is: the the lying, cuckservative, Zio-warmonger, white-hating Republiscam Pty must die. And the sooner the better.

    I believe if you look at a nationwide map of counties, the Democrats, who’ll put Harris in the WH with the aid of fake ballots, are concentrated in isolated metropolitan areas that truckers and railroad workers might blockade and white technical workers who provide electricity and clean water will walk away from for their very lives. It’s time to stop the charade there’s anything left of America, thanks to the Democrats.

    There are two Americas now and regardless of this election, steps must be taken to ensure the genocide of whites the nascent Democrat super-majority has in mind does not happen. The disgraceful irony is that it’s the Republicans who’re first in line to call anyone resisting the genocide of their own children “domestic terrorists.”

Their recent antic of 58 standing fellations for Satanyahoo (only a single Repuke congressman refused) tells you all you need to know about them: the very epitome of fake and gay.

  5. Nixon and Reagan conducted the oligarchy’s hostile takeover of our republic in earnest, cynically stirring up racial animosity, terror of change, and mindless jingoism to trick the voters to putting them into positions of power they could never achieve honestly. In the selfish interest of regaining the White House in 1992, the Democratic Leadership Council made its devil’s bargain with this corrupt power, surrendering to the GOP’s winning strategy of betraying American workers and our rights to the corporate permanent war state. The result is the failing, divided country that exists where America once was, where the choice we get is between good cop / bad cop role players who represent the same interests. There is literally no mechanism left in place to undo the damage these parties and their shadow sponsors have done to our people.

    The Democrat Party is now the closest thing to a communist party we have ever seen in the West. Starting with Biden, presidential candidates are chosen by the funding oligarchs. And the nominees are just puppets like Biden and Harris and will merely be the face of the party with no real power as others set policy and make key decisions. Of course all this only happens because of who controls the media and information systems. This is the future of America and they are doing it while masquerading as the party “saving democracy”. 1984 stuff for sure.

    I say:

    Peter Brimelow, usually a very polite and gentlemanly Limey type, is calling certain young boob libertarian types by the descriptive word “idiot.”

    Peter Brimelow has been sounding the alarm about the demographic destruction of the Republican Party and the demographic destruction of the historic American nation for decades and he has been absolutely correct in doing so. Peter Brimelow is a Baby Boomer Limey foreigner mophead who shall escape the curses of the White Core Americans who come after.

    Peter Brimelow is also a financial journalist, and he could tell you that central bankers push mass legal immigration and mass illegal immigration to mask the wage inflation that would normally occur during bouts of monetary policy extremism. Mark Carney, an Irish Canadian who was chief of the Bank of England basically admitted as much. Brimelow likes beautiful Irish ladies, so that Irish Canadian former BoE chief Carney guy must’ve amused Brimelow to no end.

    Brimelow might also sense the ending of the bond bubble that started around 1981.

    What happened in 1981? The Dodgers won the World Series? Some guy raised the federal funds rate to twenty percent and set the stage for this massive about-to-burst bond bubble and asset bubble in stocks and real estate — commercial and residential?

    Who knows? I just find it amusing that Brimelow called some libertarian wacko nutcake an “idiot.”

    The Republican Party Goes Explicit White Identity Politics Or It Goes Dodo!

    Any of you mugs got a counter argument to that?

  8. Mr. Obama learned nothing: “No nation, no society, has ever tried to build a democracy as big and as diverse as ours before,” he said.

    It should be no surprise that the communist US Democrat Party is made-up of the vast majority of minorities, Jews included, and the minority of cuck whites! “No nation, no society, has ever tried to build a democracy as big and as diverse as ours before”…and remained a nation, including the US and the rest of the West! A nation is at peace with itself due to having one huge majority race, culture, religion and one set of values! Evil people want to destroy nations for greater wealth, power and sex! That is the case with Israel and world Jewry and it’s why they are destroying the entire Western ethnic European world with their anti-white message and diversity! Take note that Israel has zero diversity and even has two sets of laws…one for Jews and another for non-Jews to include Christians! Israel is an apartheid state and always was! The Jews’ nearly realized goal is to turn every White nation on earth into a mere country, i.e., a geographic area without a unifying common race, culture, religion or values by removing the majority White race from existence. Their plan is working! No?

    The proof: Here’s why the Western World is dying and by whom it is being murdered! The Jews are behind pitting all minorities against whites. However, never call Jews white…it’s an insult to them and they will deny being white. They are Jews…period and they are loyal to Israel, always, and to each other, sometimes! The Jews own and/or control the entire Western media, Western central banks (obviously to include the US Federal Reserve), other banks, most businesses/corporations and academia…they ARE the Harris/Biden administration. Jews have bought and paid for Western politicians in all major parties, pull the strings on them and rarely lose an election! One exception was Trump in 2016 in the US, but he has seen the light and has gone full Kike, so the US hasn’t a prayer! This year’s elections in Europe did not see populists elected that aren’t bought and paid for by Jews and the same results are guaranteed in the US. The Jews are owed the world’s debt and are behind the Great Reset to be completed by 2031! “You Will Own Nothing and Be Happy,” said Klaus Schwab, Founder and Executive Chairman of the World Economic Forum…and an ethnic Jew. The obvious model for the Great Reset is The Peoples Republic of China…communism! Now you know why Western leaders are rabidly intent on having uneducated, criminal, illegal, third world, economic invaders come into Europe, US, Canada, Australia and why the process called the Great Replacement Theory should be called the Great White Replacement…FACT!! Hope you’ve noticed that these invaders have almost unlimited rights to murder, rape, beat, destroy, steal…and receive free everything, while you get nothing and pay their bills! Yet, if you complain or protest…you will be beaten, heavily fined and go to prison!!

    Israel ceased to exist from 73 AD to modern times with only a small and powerless minority of Jews living among mostly Muslims since the seventh century…peacefully! Search “Balfour Declaration” and you’ll discover the UK “sold” Palestine in 1917 to Zionists in the UK, Europe and America. The Zionists were led by the Rothschild family who were financing Jewish farmers to colonize Palestine since the 1880s! Why did the UK “sell” Palestine when it wasn’t theirs? The UK desperately needed money AND for the US to enter WW I. The Rothchild led super-rich Zionists provided the UK necessary funds for WW I and US President Wilson was “persuaded” with his second presidential election contribution in 1916 to enter WW I (he did so in April 1917), where over 116,000 Americans died and 204,000 were wounded within one-and-a-half years! Wilson previously allowed the Jews to setup the US Federal Reserve in 1913 after receiving their first election contribution prior to his 1912 election win! The Jewish population percentage in Palestine in 1917 was between 3% and 8%, depending upon whom you believe. If the Palestinians/Arabs wanted to kill all the Jews, then or before, it would have been easy! It should be obvious to anyone watching the genocide of the Palestinians in Gaza and, yes, the West Bank, that it is Israel that wants the Arabs dead and to incorporate more Arab lands into a Greater Israel! The Palestinians and other Arabs were lied to by the UK when told they would all be freed if they helped defeat the Ottoman Empire (Turks), who’d occupied Palestine and most of the Arab world for four hundred years until WW I! Instead, Israel was founded in 1948, 31 years after the 1917 “sale” of Palestine and there still isn’t and never will be a Palestine…again! Search the internet before believing Western propaganda.

  10. It was the same with the Clinton bitch in 2016. She was just older and even more arrogant but remember that the fake news media already had their phot in cover as “Mrs president’.

    To avoid the headbutt in the face they took in 2016, the bolsheviks (that’s what they are) rigge dthe 2020 elections, so massively that only liars, hypocrites, the indifferent or idiots still pretend it wasn’t rigged.

    The message the globalists who control the USA want to send since 2020 is that they don;t care what people know or think, they are in power and they are going to do it again, and if people dare revolt, they will send them to jail like they did with the 6th of January politicdon’t like it but we will do al prisoners.

    The message is: the USA is no longer a republic, it’s like the USSR, you know it, we know it.

    This is why they are exulting, because with in-mail ballot, electronic voting, illegal aliens voting, ballot manipulation and 100% media support, they basically can’t lose.

    The only way they could would be if Republicans were really an opposition party and not part of the plot, which they are by doing nothing against electoral fraud.

    The other way would be a sudden awakening of the US population who would stand in every poll stations to control the vote will be fair.

    Lastly, if Republicans would cheat bigger than democrats.

    Behind all this are the parasites who are devoring the USA from inside, they got again billions of tax payer money to keep their genocide going on while losing the war on all fronts, but it doesn’t matter to their puppets on both sides, they will all obey their puppet masters with whatever war or anti-white anti-Christian, anti-american agenda they impose, as long as it destroys the societies they infested further.

    If Americans want to solve their problems, end election fraud, corruption, wars and societal decadence they have to solve their jewish problem, that is end jewish power in America and the west.

    I haven’t seen any candidate with such a program yet, so I’ll go fishing in November.

    Temporary seizure and nationalization of the major media corporation would fix that. Charges of antitrust and treason (violating the First Amendment, espionage, fomenting wars for foreign nationals), tax evasion and fraud, colluding with election rigging and systemic anti-White discrimination… will keep their army of lawyers back pedaling as reparations will amount to the trillions just for Hollywood’s decades of hate crimes against the people and nation of Germany alone.
    Meanwhile, several national referenda would be circulated across the land to determine how to reapportion the assets of several of these media giants. To State Government? Academia? Entertainment? Education? Arts? Environment and the Art of Living? Religious groups? Give each of the 8-10 winners 10-15% of the public air waves… Ah, a bright new day will have arrived.

    p.s. Good idea to do this in several countries simultaneously. Fascia gains strength when it grows a few cross fibers. Look at bamboo, or heart tissue. They are the toughest.

    I agree with you, but I have a very hard time believing the truck drivers, railway workers and technical professionals you describe will ever consiously act to put a stop to any of this. To my eyes, the socio-political gangrene has become so widespread – as has the apathy about all of it – that the situation has gone far beyond remedy, already.

    Someone else here said it, I forget which poster it was now, that it would take a Mad Max-tier psychopath to do what needs to be done and maybe only 10-15% of whites have the stomach for it.

    With nationalization the air waves are returned to the citizens that actually own them. With fresh and honest air in the media, and free elections not controlled by big money, criminal prosecution of the top JP mafia can proceed less hindered*. Thereby you also can plausibly remove the Israel First influence in government, academia, and finance institutions.

    *Of course, the Mordecai-Esther Directive will go into full gear. They will be indescribably vicious and adhere to no rules. Nevertheless, with media control out of their iron grip, national autonomy can be reclaimed from them.

    Why bother to comment when you did not even read the first short sentence in its entirety?

    “With nationalization the air waves are returned to the citizens that actually own them.”

    It would not stop with nationalization of mass media companies. Referenda and congressional debate could determine how to categorize and assign new management and oversight. And it should not be all of them. That would appear too much like coup for a new dictatorship.
