Tucker Carlson

1,140 words

Since leaving Fox News, Tucker Carlson’s new media venture has been at best groundbreaking and inquisitive and at worst baselessly speculative and conspiratorial. The February 8, 2025 episode “Mike Benz Takes Us Down the USAID Rabbit Hole (It’s Worse Than You Think)” is a case in point. Benz, the executive director of the Foundation for Freedom Online, joined Tucker for a wide ranging discussion on the many sordid left-wing operations funded by USAID, a federal agency “primarily responsible for administering civilian foreign aid and development assistance.” (more…)

When George Orwell arrived in Aragon to fight against Franco in 1937, it wasn’t the poor state of the weaponry that worried him, and it wasn’t the enemy. As chronicled in Homage to Catalonia, he was more alarmed at the number of factional squabbles there were on his side. In-fighting in the face of the enemy similarly afflicts the political Right today, and the call to “unite the Right” is a forlorn cry in the wilderness. (more…)

Azzmador, RIP
Original art by A. Wyatt Mann

Word broke on Telegram on Tuesday morning that Alt Right icon Robert Ray, aka Azzmador, passed away shortly after a disturbing post complaining about excruciating pain in his legs.

One could argue that Azzmador qualifies as a martyr to the White Nationalist cause because the only reason that he was unable to seek proper medical care was because he had been a fugitive of the law since August 2017, when he maced an antifa activist in self-defense at the Charlottesville tiki torch march.

The case of Jacob Dix, who has been charged with “using fire to intimidate” during the torch march at the University of Virginia (UVA) campus in Charlottesville, Virginia on August 11, 2017, the night before the Unite the Right rally, has ended in a mistrial after the jury was unable to come to a unanimous verdict. This was the most significant setback yet for the George Soros-backed Albemarle County Commonwealth Attorney Jim Hingeley and his antifa assistant Lawton Tufts, men who decided to pursue charges against peaceful protesters six years after the fact for political reasons.

A number of books have already been written about the suppressed “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville, Virginia. I have already reviewed the excellent Charlottesville Untold by Anne Wilson Smith. Padraig Martin’s A Walk in the Park also enjoys a good reputation. (more…)

The first and fiercest punishment ought to fall first on the traitor, second on the enemy. — Corneliu Zelea Codreanu

I was cautiously optimistic about America First Legal (AFL). Their mission statement proudly proclaims in part: “We believe that all Americans deserve a government that puts their needs, their interests, and their country FIRST.” (more…)

Judd Blevins was host Greg Johnson and co-host David Zsutty‘s (Counter-Currents, Telegram, Twitter) very special guest on the most recent broadcast of Counter-Currents Radio, and it is now available for download and online listening.

Blevins, until recently a City Councilman in Enid, Oklahoma, was subjected to a recall election earlier this month that he lost — which was hardly surprising given that he was opposed not only by his Republican challenger, but by the Enid political establishment, the state of Oklahoma’s Democratic Party, the “Enid Social Justice Committee,” and the mainstream media at both the local and national levels.

Judd Blevins

Judd Blevins was recently recalled from his position as a City Councilman in Enid, Oklahoma. This was not because of any malfeasance on his part, but because he has views and past associations which are deemed as “problematic” in Our Democracy.™

Blevins received 40% of the vote to his opponent Cheryl Patterson’s 60%. The election had an extremely high turnout, with 1,390 voting in the recall as compared to 808 when Blevins was first elected. (more…)

African Ingenuity: Grave-Robbers in Sierra Leone Grind Up Human Bones and Roll Them Into Joints

Black people invented everything, including the IQ test, but as everyone knows, white supremacists stole and buried the original IQ test that blacks invented, because it’s the only one where blacks scored higher than everyone else.

Still, black genius refuses to be suppressed, especially in places where black people flourish such as the tiny West African nation of Sierra Leone, which resembles a landfill with black people crawling atop it. (more…)

Recently I was asked to make some subtle aesthetic adjustments to the Counter-Currents website. If I’ve done the job well, no one will even notice the changes. The task required me to go through the archives all the way back to the summer of 2010, the year Greg Johnson broke digital ground and Counter-Currents went online. (more…)

Thomas Rousseau, leader of the activist group Patriot Front, became the eleventh man to be arrested for his participation in the August 11, 2017 Unite the Right (UTR) tiki torch march across the University of Virginia campus on February 23, 2024.

Patriot Front, whose motto is “Reclaim America,” has recently come to national attention for their peaceful yet bold public demonstrations calling for whites to embrace the European roots of the historic American nation. (more…)
