We know what’s coming and we are prepared.
Trump has failed by every metric except raising himself to (almost) mythic status. Because of this alone, nobody is even in the same room as him in terms of political influence. Not a single politician in the Western world even comes close.
This is not an endorsement of him, but a cold shower for the radical right. For too long, the radical right's play has been to debate liberalism out of power, whereas people are not moved by argument, but by narrative. Everyone backs a strong horse, and the strong horse says convincingly "history bends toward me". The right has won every "debate" it has ever had, and continues to lose the war. Unless and until we learn this lesson (among others), we will continue to be a fringe movement.
We have done a lot to move the Overton window, but overwhelmingly our work has been done by elites having fumbled the ball badly, and gone way too far, way too fast. History bends toward us, but not because we're master strategists. We suck at strategy and need to get better—and this includes crafting a more powerful myth than that of "progress". That's what this article is about.

By comparison, ISIS destroyed dozens of churches.
How is this okay?

American wages are not keeping up with inflation.
US average hourly earnings adjusted for inflation fell -0.3% YoY in September, marking the 5th consecutive decline in real wages.
This follows a -0.2% YoY decrease in August, -0.3% in July, and -0.8% in June, the largest decline since May 2023.
This marks a sharp deterioration from +1.3% YoY growth in real wages recorded in February.
This all comes as US CPI inflation has remained above +3.0% for 6 consecutive months, the longest such streak since mid-2024.
Meanwhile, in nominal terms, average hourly earnings rose +3.0% YoY in September, their slowest growth since May 2021.
Nominal wage growth has been in a downtrend since March 2025, when earnings grew +4.2% YoY.
Inflation is eroding the spending power of Americans.

🦠 🇷🇺 🇺🇸 US closely monitoring case of lab worker who ‘possibly’ died of plague in Siberia, says Rubio
Darya Shipilova, a 28-year-old employee at the anti-plague institute in the city of Irkutsk, became ill at work. She died two days later on the night of 2 October at a regional hospital in the nearby town of Shelekhov.

He said family members were allowed to drop off food at a checkpoint while tests were carried out inside the building. Similar quarantine restrictions have been placed on several ...
