Again, the man who’s next in line for the presidency after this walking corpse has said he’s deeply influenced by this outright Nazi, so maybe we could get a little more attention on that?
Curtis Yarvin, JD Vance’s friend & ideological influence, ended 2025 by claiming “only Hitler spoke the truth” about “too many subjects” & “Hitler was a genius.”
Extremism isn’t fringe on the right. Once marginal online extremists like Yarvin are influential at the highest levels of government.

If you're a Democrat, you're a sucker if you imagine this agency has anything to do with immigration. It is--and aspires to be!--a fascist paramilitary goon squad. You should start saying so and lay the groundwork for starving it of funding when you take power

Anytime these guys show up a daycare center, the managers should immediately start filming and tell them to stop behaving like pedophiles and trying to access children without their parents’ permission. Publish their photos and names
A bunch of weirdos with a documented party history of pedophilia who are in the middle of covering for Epstein want to hang out at child care centers. Fucking freaks. And we should say so.
“I’m here to search your child care center for fraud.”

And it's good to see that in a time when so many "libertarian" organizations have discovered they like racism and "owning the libs" more than their supposed principles, Cato stays on mission.

Again, with Trump it's not "surely such and such will bring him down." You chip away. Groceries are sky high, nobody's hiring, and nobody likes kids and old ladies roughed up. But more than that, we're at the equivalent of '19. People are tired of thinking about the president.

Ahmed al Ahmed, a Lebanese Muslim who owns a Sydney fruit shop, risked his life to disarm one of the Bondi Beach shooters.
His courage gives me hope amidst the horror and darkness. Muslims and Jews are not enemies. Our futures, in the Middle East and beyond, are intrinsically bound.
A true hero.
