I know what it means to live without freedom—and I know the civilization that made my freedom possible must be defended. Here is my manifesto to defend the Judeo-Christian civilization that made freedom possible and to launch @RestoringWest. restoringthewest.com/p/the-restorin…

Tonight, one week after the attempt on President Trump’s life, I return to a simple truth: political violence does not come from nowhere. It is cultivated—when young people without purpose are fed ideological hatred and taught their opponents are evil. I’m grateful the @RestoringWest team moved quickly to publish this, because it is a truth we can no longer ignore.
Restoring the West@RestoringWest

Political violence does not come from nowhere. It grows when lonely, purposeless young people are fed a steady diet of ideological hatred — and told their enemies are not opponents, but evil to be destroyed. In her latest for @RestoringWest, @Ayaan warns where this road leads. ayaan.restoringthewest.com/when-indoctrin… #RestoringTheWest #PoliticalViolence #FreeSpeech #WesternCivilization #AyaanHirsiAli

I can hardly believe it’s been two months since I began writing my Saturday column for @RestoringWest. This week: truth before personality, courage before charisma. A free society cannot survive on charm alone—it requires the courage to say what is true, even when it costs you approval.
Restoring the West@RestoringWest

Truth before personality. Courage before charisma. In her latest TWAA, @Ayaan argues that defending Western principles requires more than being polite, charming, or popular. Free people must be willing to say what is true — even when it costs them approval.

From my latest in @RestoringWest: Iran is waging a quiet war on British Jews—through proxies, intimidation, and fear. The attack was predictable. The response is familiar. And that is why Iran is winning.
Restoring the West@RestoringWest

Iran is waging a war on British Jews — on British streets. And Britain’s leaders keep offering statements instead of protection. In her latest for @RestoringWest, @Ayaan argues that the U.K. must finally proscribe the IRGC and confront foreign-directed Islamist violence. ayaan.restoringthewest.com/iran-is-waging… #RestoringTheWest #IRGC #Antisemitism #BritishJews #Iran

Boys don’t need to be optimized like products — @DelphineChui is exactly right. They need purpose, discipline, faith, and character.
Restoring the West@RestoringWest

Boys don’t need to be optimized like products. They need purpose, dignity, discipline, faith, and character. In her latest for @RestoringWest, @DelphineChui argues that “looksmaxxing” is not just an internet trend — it is what happens when a civilization forgets how to teach young men their worth. ayaan.restoringthewest.com/boys-dont-need… #RestoringTheWest #Masculinity #Purpose #HumanDignity #Culture

At @RestoringWest, we make the case that if American companies expect American loyalty, they should start by bringing back American call centers.
Restoring the West@RestoringWest

American companies want American loyalty — while outsourcing the very conversations where trust is won or lost. In his latest for @RestoringWest, @Todd_Huizinga argues that call centers are not just a cost issue. They are a trust issue. Bring them home. ayaan.restoringthewest.com/bring-back-ame… #RestoringTheWest #CallCenters #CustomerService #AmericanJobs

. @TreyDimsdale is absolutely right: the Southern Poverty Law Center built its name fighting hate—but somewhere along the way, outrage became part of the business model. Read Trey’s latest for @RestoringWest.
Restoring the West@RestoringWest

The SPLC built its brand on fighting hate. But what if the real business model was fundraising off division? In his latest for @RestoringWest, @TreyDimsdale argues that the SPLC’s moral authority has long masked a deeper institutional problem: turning outrage into revenue.

Jewish people in our country are under constant attack. This is no longer a growing pattern. There is an epidemic of violence against Jewish people. It is now a national emergency and needs to be treated as such by the Government and public authorities.

What happens when medicine stops following the evidence? Patients pay the price. In this must-read @RestoringWest conversation, @jarobinson1 speaks with @jaypgreene on how @AAMCtoday lost credibility by advancing claims the research doesn’t support—and what that means for the future of healthcare: A Conversation with Jay P. Greene: How the Association of American Medical Colleges Lost Its Way.
Restoring the West@RestoringWest

When medical institutions trade scientific rigor for ideology, the damage does not stay on campus. It reaches patients, policy, and the future of medicine itself. In this conversation for @RestoringWest, @jarobinson1 speaks with @jaypgreene about how @AAMCtoday lost credibility by advancing claims the underlying research does not support.

Under Secretary of State Sarah B. Rogers
Politico is very interested in my Twitter account, but not interested enough to fact-check their leading claim: it’s $500 thousand, not $500 million. Rest assured, though: if I could reasonably pledge $500m to the cause of free speech, I would.

Depending on whom you ask, she’s either just another MAGA troll meddling in European democracy or its best hope of survival. One thing is clear: U.S. Undersecretary of State Sarah Rogers is just getting started. 🔗 politico.eu/article/donald…

Google co-founder Sergey Brin is coming out as Republican, per NYT The reporting follows Brin's ambitious efforts to kill the California wealth tax, elect a Republican to California governor, and move his residency out of California. He finally expressed his sentiment in a comment to NYT: "I fled socialism with my family in 1979 and know the devastating, oppressive society it created in the Soviet Union. I don't want California to end up in the same place."

I have spent twenty years being told by people, many of them intelligent and well-meaning, that my fears about ideological blacklists were overwrought. That the people building these lists were the good guys. That I should trust the institutions. But two decades ago, the idea that the country's premier 'anti-hate' organization would write checks to the actual organizer of Charlottesville would have sounded like the rantings of a man shouting at pigeons. Today, it is in a federal indictment. dailymail.com/debate/article…

Politicians think in cycles. Mothers think in generations. That is why MAHA moms often see what the political class misses. In this listicle for @RestoringWest, @daisymaeinglese argues that restoring the West begins with protecting children, strengthening families, and rejecting dependency as progress.

Politicians think in cycles. Mothers think in generations. That is why MAHA moms often understand cultural restoration more clearly than the political class. In this essay for @RestoringWest, @daisymaeinglese argues that the fight to restore the West begins with protecting children, strengthening families, and rejecting dependency as progress.

Bombshell CBS News segment on the Southern Poverty Law Center indictment where the SPLC lied to donors, paid violent extremists millions, and “manufactured racism” for its own purposes “The SPLC was not dismantling these groups. It was instead manufacturing the extremism it purports to oppose.” Per Todd Blanche The Charlottesville rally leader attended “at the direction of SPLC” and made racist posts “under the supervision” of SPLC.

Ayaan Hirsi Ali gets it, civilization isn't built by govts or public, it's forged in the living rooms and dinner tables of strong families. Moms and dads raising kids with purpose, faith, and moral clarity; that's the real frontline. You need well developed humans to build something great. The left continues to try to dismantle the nuclear family, push fatherless homes, and replace parents with the goverment. They have weakened us from within. If we want to restore what built civilization, we don't need more government programs: we need to champion marriage, motherhood, fatherhood, and the transmission of timeless truths to the next generation. Extended kin, shared sacrifice, and a belief in something bigger than yourself. That's how free societies thrive. No apologies. Let's rebuild the family as the foundation of everything. Believe in God. The future of the civilized world depends on it!

To SAVE the WEST, we must begin where civilization itself begins: the FAMILY. In my latest weekly column for @RestoringWest, I argue that mothers, fathers, children, and extended kin are not peripheral to renewal—they are its front line.

To save the West, we must build and uphold families. In her latest weekly column, @Ayaan argues that mothers, fathers, children, and extended families are not peripheral to civilizational renewal. They are its front line. A free society does not begin with the state. It begins with strong families, moral clarity, faith, and a shared generational purpose.

@KatieMiller @elonmusk Zero. Elon Musk has never donated to the SPLC. He's repeatedly called it an "evil organization" that spreads hate propaganda and should be shut down. No public records, tax filings, or statements show any contribution from him, Tesla, SpaceX, or xAI.
