As our friends at American Thinker recently noted here, the legal winds are shifting against websites that advocate conservative values, seeking, among other things, to make the site operators responsible for what commenters write. The commenting function at ACWT has not been especially active, though many of the comments are clearly heartfelt. Our preference would be to allow the comment function to blossom into a forum or community for the exchange of views. But until America more firmly renews its commitment to the rule of law, we will disable the comment function until further notice.

Bari Weiss – Rethinking Trump

Bari Weiss is ‘credentialed’:  former op ed writer at the Wall Street Journal AND New York Times…once a liberal, but now seems to have had a change of perspective.  From a tweet earlier today @AmericanFWoman: Journalist Bari Weiss, a Jewish liberal who quit the New York Times over its anti-Semitism,

Candace Owens – Malignant Indoctrination in US Universities

Candace Owens is a one-of-a-kind cultural force.  Super bright, super charismatic, quick on her feet as a thinker, and a recovered doctrinaire liberal.  That she happens to be black is the perfect capper to a persona that causes left-wing meltdowns on a regular basis. Her X post on October 16

Jeffrey Tucker – The Triumph of the Apocalyptics

Don’t be deterred by the title; Jeffrey Tucker is a serious, humane thinker, and he has put together a sort of collective soul-searching that is going on around the world as serious people start to come to grips with the strong gut feeling that the horrendous global travails of the

John Daniel Davidson – Learning About Paganism

The Federalist is increasingly standing out as a go-to source for thoughtful, intelligent, conservative perspective. John Daniel Davidson writes at The Federalist, and his latest post: “Israel And Hamas Are Embroiled In A Zero-Sum Religious War, And So Is The West” is a clear review of the conflict that Bush

Lt. Col. Allen West – What is Palestine?

Our friend Lt. Col. Allen West has offered a brilliant, succinct reminder of the history of what is now called “Palestine” and of the people now referred to as “Palestinians”. It’s so clear that those without a knowledge of history are not only likely to repeat the mistakes of the

Victor Davis Hanson – Rising to the Needs of the Times

We noted yesterday that Victor Davis Hanson has noticeably upped his contributions to the daily dialogue.  That’s a great thing for America and the world, because few thinkers are as clear about history and its relation to current events than Dr. Hanson.  He’s rising to the demand for the times

Victor Davis Hanson – Doing Everything He Can to Wake Up America

Dr. Victor Davis Hanson is nobody’s idea of a loose cannon in his speaking and writing.  But he’s clearly gone into overdrive with a sense of urgency to wake up delusional Americans about the reality of the Biden administration’s actions–aka absurdities and lies–regarding Israel and the nature of the forces

Mark Steyn – Partying On

Mark Steyn’s clear-eyed view of the world’s convulsions is not comfortable to western elites.  It puts a stop to the pretending that causes those elites to believe that there’s always one more kick of the can down the road that can avoid conflicts that they would rather believe do not

Brian Cates – ‘Not Chaos’

The ouster of Kevin McCarthy as Speaker of the House has prompted an angry chorus from certain circles to the effect that the action was utterly irresponsible and will lead to chaos in government. The alternative media continues to shine in responding to this and many other narratives. Brian Cates
