You can tell none of Schmitt’s online critics have ever read a single word from the guy because they genuinely believe the central thesis of Concept of the Political is that politics should be divorced from morality and that nothing matters except rewarding friends and punishing enemies. “We recognize the pluralism of spiritual life and know that the central domain of spiritual existence cannot be a neutral domain and that it is wrong to solve a political problem with the antithesis of organic and mechanistic, life and death.” Schmitt quite literally ends the 1932 edition of Concept of the Political with a devastating critique of liberal universalism by pointing out that people naturally generate different worldviews and ways of life. And you can’t permanently escape the possibility of existential political conflict simply by trying to filter the inherent pluralism of “spiritual life” through a supposedly neutral system of rules. And it doesn’t even matter what kind of rules you try to adjudicate everything through. Any domain (be it religious, economic, or administrative) that’s powerful enough to organize people’s collective way of life will inevitably become the very thing that they fight over. This is why Liberalism is doomed to failure. It’s also why the concept of the state presupposes the concept of the political. Every attempt to construct a “neutral” system of rules and procedures to adjudicate between fundamentally incompatible visions of the good inside the same nation state will inevitably produce the very existential conflict that Liberals dread.

They're doing it out in the open.

It's the OJ Simpson trial all over again. A handful of deranged and compromised young women on the jury are going to force a mistrial because they believe that this killer is somehow the real victim in all of this. We are watching the consequences of decades of Progressive metaphysics play out in real time. Everyone in this country is permitted to engage in blatant racial and sex-based nepotism in hiring practices, university admissions, welfare collection, government contracting, workplace promotions, and even criminal trials. Everyone except White Men.

I have tried as hard as possible to keep this account about things other than myself, because I have always found ideas and concepts and macro forces unfolding throughout history to be far more interesting, but you leave me no choice. If you're going to force me to defend my resume, I'll do it, if for no other reason than the fact that you are rapidly running out of cards to play and this may be one of the most pathetic attempts to distract from the real issue at hand that you have intentionally dodged at every turn. You've asked who I am, so I'll tell you. I have worked in electoral and legislative politics for essentially my entire adult life. I have been working in politics since before I could even legally vote. I poured my heart and soul into getting champions of liberty elected to office starting in my early 20s, like @NickJFreitas, because I knew that this country needed men like him in leadership positions. I have worked on countless campaigns at every level of government. I haven't won every race, nor have I tried to pad my record by only taking on guaranteed wins. For more than a dozen years, I was totally committed to electing as many Liberty-oriented Constitutional Republicans to office in my home state and across the country as possible. I have worked on literally hundreds of races in my career, and continue to do so to this day. I have helped oust incumbents who voted with the Left on everything from gun control to transing kids. I've helped take out sitting Senate Presidents and Committee Chairs, men who had dreams of becoming Speaker or Governor one day, but who had betrayed their own voting base too many times to be forgiven. I've worked for some of the largest political marketing firms in Conservative politics, managing some of the largest political advocacy groups on the American Right. I've helped raise millions of dollars for everything ranging from the Pro-Life cause to Constitutional Carry to Right to Work. I'm also an electoral data analyst. I've been predicting election results for more than a decade and have consistently ranked among the most accurate electoral forecasters in Virginia. And my love for modeling goes far beyond Virginia. When @charliekirk11 reached out to @maloney to run Donald Trump's ballot-chasing program in Pennsylvania, Cliff called me to crunch the numbers and track the work he and his team were doing. I personally ran all of the data collection for the Pennsylvania Chase, and I proved my worth when I accurately predicted the final result in Pennsylvania to within half a percentage point five days before the election. I was in the war room in Harrisburg with Cliff when he was on Charlie's livestream on election night in 2024. And it was me who had the honor of telling Charlie's team, nearly three hours before any network in America had called it, that Donald Trump had carried the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and with it, the Presidency of the United States. I have spent my adult life fighting the Progressive Left in practically every arena available to me in peaceful politics. In statehouses, on campaign trails, over the airwaves and in your mailbox, in spreadsheets and databases and electoral models. I've done it all except run for office myself. I'm proud of that record. And when the question arises, "What have you done to defeat the Left?" I am perfectly comfortable putting my record up against anyone else's. But this isn't actually about me, is it? My resume is relevant only because you keep making it relevant by attacking it. None of what I just wrote proves that my political arguments are correct. So now that we have disposed of your claim that I've never accomplished anything meaningful in politics, perhaps we can return to the actual issue at hand. You keep attacking your enemies personally because it allows you to avoid confronting the fact that your ideology helped bring us to this point. You know what comes next once people start asking what to do about the Left. You're terrified of the prospect that people will come to learn that you and your ideology helped to create the Progressive menace we now face, so you have to keep doing this thing where the play must be frozen in Act II forever, and you can only freeze it by personally attacking anyone who asks to see what comes in Act III. You know the moment the focus shifts from debating the resumes of your enemies to debating what to do about a problem your own political philosophy helped to create, you actually have to answer the question, "What do you plan on doing to stop the Left?" And you know there's no answer that doesn't indict your own ideology.

Can a single Classical Liberal explain why nudists should not be permitted to walk down the streets of San Francisco, or why homeless drug addicts shouldn’t be allowed to shoot up heroin on the sidewalks without invoking “the common good”? There isn’t a single Classical Liberal who can explain why public nudity should constitute a criminal offense by only appealing to individual liberty or the harm principle. If the answer is “most people dislike nudity” liberalism collapses into pure democratic majoritarianism and those two things are not the same thing. If it’s “nudity is objectively indecent” then you’re invoking a moral standard about right and wrong that lies outside the liberal commitment to voluntary consent. If it’s “children shouldn’t see it” then the Classical Liberal has to explain why children shouldn’t see it but adults can, which necessarily means that voluntary consent is a contingent rather than necessary principle for governing society. If it’s because doing so it a violation of “good manners” and therefore “offences against decency and others” which is almost verbatim to what John Stuart Mill argued, then the Classical Liberal has to explain what the hell “good manners” and “decency” are and how they’re any different from the Postliberal conception of the common good. Any answer you give either leaves Liberalism behind or it grants people a license to destroy civilization in the name of defending Progressive degeneracy. Either way, Liberalism dies in the end.

"Ex national security official and NYT bestselling author" who thinks it's "stupid", "illegal", and "dystopian" for a country to use its military to defend its borders. Of course, it's also stupid, illegal, and certainly dystopian to mass-import the Third World into this country, but would you be shocked to learn Miles Taylor wants to abolish ICE?

Memories are short. Seeing J6’ers saying voting doesn’t matter is legitimately wild to me. Catholic grandmas were going to die in prison because they prayed in front of an abortion clinic. J6’ers lived in gulags. We would be in hell on earth had Harris won.

The reason why the online “debate me bro” culture is steadily dying isn’t that debating itself is dead or pointless but rather that debates themselves never get anywhere unless both participants have a shared set of presuppositions. Online debates don’t work anymore because the debate itself always seems to be over first principles, even as we market them to be over “facts”. At some point you must start with an axiom that isn’t up for debate, and if nether party agrees on what that axiom should be, debating solves nothing. It’s all so tiresome to watch. Almost every “debate” nowadays is just an attempt to expose the other guy to be an idiot, but only within the moral or philosophical framework of the other contestant. And this is only going to get worse. As the pre-rational social bonds that once held society together are steadily dismantled in the name of progress, we will find it increasingly difficult to talk to one another in any setting, let alone a debate.

🚨 President Trump Newly Declassified Election Documents Show VENEZUELA Had compromised Election Infrastructure dating back to 2004. "Intelligence Community reporting from 2004-2020 documented persistent concerns about Venezuelan government manipulation of electronic voting systems and the potential national security implications for US election infrastructure. The intelligence established that Venezuelan government officials developed sustained interest and likely some capability in manipulating electronic voting systems, including Smartmatic technology, to influence electoral outcomes in Venezuela."

🚨 DECLASSIFIED: A 2020 Presidential Daily Brief indicates that a WH official was approached and blackmailed by China. China reportedly had “derogatory” information on the official and tried to use it so that he’d “restrain” his approach to China. The intelligence was assessed as credible based on previous recommendation from “lower level” Chinese officials in using “black materials” on anti-China U.S. officials .

After tonight, it’s even clearer that the Senate should take the SAVE America Act and continue debating it until it passes Repost if you agree

The thing about the Left is that for all of their rhetoric about universal love, tolerance, and inclusion, they’re really just a bunch of “Far Right” blood and soil ethnonationalists when you give them enough time to reveal who they truly are. It’s just that they cloak that ethnonationalism under the guise of “dismantling White Supremacy” or whatever other Progressive buzzwords they believe gives them moral legitimacy to construct an ethnostate for their preferred people.
