@JacintaAllanMP @TimRichardsonMP Punish violent criminals severely.

Because the best way to prevent crime is to stop it before it starts.

@TenuredRadical @AlecMacGillis They were not doing useful things for the world.

@AlecMacGillis And Trump supporters probably think this is funny.

"Sheryl Cowan, 57, was making $272,000 a year as a senior VP at a U.S.A.I.D.-funded nonprofit when she was let go at the end of March 2025. Last month she had an online interview for a $19-an-hour job managing a Penzeys Spices store in Falls Church, Va." nytimes.com/2026/04/21/us/…

@lizpeek Got some news regarding him, I’m afraid.

What ever happened to #Dem Lt Gov Virginia #JustinFairfax who was credibly accused of sexual assault by 2 women- one w corroborating witness? Oh right- nothing. Still in office. #Shame

@Aelthemplaer I don’t get it — can someone tell me what the meaning is here

Accurate

That's quite a brutal post 😅

@elliew0lfe JHU not actively flouting the law and SCOTUS vs others.

Since affirmative action ended, Asian enrollment at Johns Hopkins University has skyrocketed, from 26% of the first-year class in 2023 to 45% in 2025. Experts say Hopkins is a dramatic outlier compared to other elite universities. What's going on? Read: thebanner.com/education/high…

@nihoncassandra @philippilk wtf are you talking about? The leading lights of the EU have been characterized by a rejection of objective reality for at least five years - more if you include Merkel cozying up to Putin economically whilst opposing him politically.

@philippilk Whatever the EU's fault's (or those of it's essentially social-democratic members), it's vastly superior to the rejection of objective reality, and sniveling Russaphilia & extractive parochial cronyism of Fidesz/Orban. Good riddance.

This is why some of us campaigned so hard for Fidesz. Huge changes are now coming to Europe that will very likely ruin the continent completely. All the European “conservatives” nattering about postliberalism were hoodwinked: the election was about the future of Europe. 🇭🇺🇪🇺

@MaryBra07357029 @ClaremontInst Small steps…toward what, weird racism

@ClaremontInst Obama said small steps are better than no steps at all. Still right.

"From 2012 to 2024, Democrats moved sharply left on virtually every issue — with electoral results that were precisely the opposite of those expected and intended." That is Ezra Klein's summary of twelve years of Democratic electoral strategy. Ross Douthat arrived at the same conclusion independently. And yet, as William Voegeli demonstrates in a sweeping new essay for the Spring 2026 CRB, the Democratic Party shows no meaningful sign of course correction. Voegeli's argument is not simply that the left wing is winning intra-party fights — though it is. It is that the center cannot win them, because it shares too much of the left's moral framework to mount a principled resistance. When the sole binding axiom of a political coalition is that it stands on the right side of history, the moderate who counsels patience is always vulnerable to the leftist who invokes the fierce urgency of now. The Democratic center's problem, Voegeli concludes, is a theological one. Subscribe to read his full essay in the Spring 2026 CRB. hubs.ly/Q04bk1Vk0

@BBSz_ @philippilk They’re in a better energy situation than if they had followed others off a cliff vis a vis Russia. But they’re in Europe. Europe is in deep shit, in case you haven’t watched the news.

@philippilk Care to explain why the limited resources? Oh wait, yeah, Orbán's corrupt system turned Hungary into the poorest, and most corrupt in Europe, multiplying the country debt in his 16 years. With all due respect, fck off.

Hungarians decided on the next four years tonight. You won’t see Fidesz-aligned people dispute an election result. I wish the new leadership well. They have a very difficult situation to navigate and limited resources. 🇭🇺🗳️

@SunnieDunne @fliepenstein @SzabadonMagyar What kind of constitutional changes?

@fliepenstein @SzabadonMagyar Love from America! Way to go 🇭🇺 🙌#Orbán

Orban was defeated. Hungary is free! 🫡🇭🇺🍻

"You've been indicted for an $11M fraud, do you want to post a $50K bond and lose your passport, or $150K bond and keep your passport. Sir, remember you have been indicted for an $11M fraud." "Oh, the $150k bond, excellent choice sir"

@PhilWMagness @JohnJSSoriano @FeserEdward @SohrabAhmari 1. Vastly more “libertarians” with a history of racism and so forth, if you want to play idiotic lefty games of guilt by association. Mises, CATO & GMU folks don’t come out well in that game.

At this point though, I see zero room for a reconciliation between economists and the Postliberals - nor do I desire one. The reasons: 1. The Postliberals have drifted too far into the world of bigotry and fascist adjacency to permit a return to mainstream political company. 2. The Postliberals have staked out political positions of their own that are explicitly anticapitalist and anti-economics, so there's no room for reconciliation even if they wanted it. 3. The Postliberal ranks are a few dozen people in closely overlapping circles. The only reason they matter at all is an inflated political presence due to the patronage of JD Vance and Viktor Orban. One of those will probably be booted out of office this weekend. But unless you're courting Vance, they have nothing to offer any other group although they do come with immense baggage.

Brutal piece from @SohrabAhmari demonstrating the sheer irrationality of the last year of governance. From economics to foreign policy, it has not advanced postliberal goals, or America First goals, or any goals at all, amounting to little more than a series of despotic spasms.

@tenreirovidal @PhilWMagness @JohnJSSoriano @FeserEdward @SohrabAhmari “Sound” economics being apparently nonsense from Mises?

I share @PhilWMagness frustration: the great majority of postliberal writing is needlessly hostile to sound economics, But it is a mistake to conclude from this that no reconciliation is possible or desirable. The late scholastics of the Spanish Golden Age in Salamanca had already anticipated most modern economic insights in substance that centuries later Smith, Jevons, Walras, Menger, Mises and others systematically developed: subjective value, prices as prior to costs, the dynamic character of market competition, time preference, monetary inflation’s real distortions, monetary significance of bank credit and deposits, limits on centralized economic direction, a juridical presumption against unjustified intervention, etc. The real task is to detach sound economic reasoning from liberal ideology and to reintegrate it into a thicker account of justice, prudence, and the common good. The alternative is not postliberalism or economics, but good economics under better political philosophy than liberalism.

@egggeater @waytgopotatojoe @CensoredLeak What about thinking rationally makes you thing that an uncreated ground of being is not necessary for contingent existence

@waytgopotatojoe @CensoredLeak The more I think rationally the less I believe in a god. It takes indoctrination or mental illness to go the other direction

@jrade762 @philippilk The prices for oil move globally. You cut the amount coming through Hormuz and West Texas Intermediate will go up, along with gas in all 50 states. Unless we restrict exports.

@philippilk lol, the US is self-sufficient in fuel, the biggest impact will be in Asia and Australia because of the distances and tanker capacities involved in having to transport crude from the Gulf Coast and Alaska.

JP Morgan map showing oil deliveries from the Gulf and when these deliveries will stop. Europe has ten days left. The United States has 15 days left. This is going to hit hard. 🛢️❌

@ahwoyte @ClydeDoSomethin but the normal singing part was bad and off key lol

@ClydeDoSomethin Yall ignorant cunts that claim this is the decline are embarrassing. Blending ancient traditions that existed before any instrument was invented w/ modern sounds on a massive stage. Her talent squashes most “singers”. You not getting it doesn’t change that.

All the talent has left Canada. What in the hell would you call this performance at the Juno awards?
