"The revelations coming out about USAID have confirmed what has long been suspected. USAID was the primary vehicle for engineering Deep State regime change in the form of “color revolutions” around the world—but also domestically. Nowhere was this more evident than in the removal of Trump from the presidency.
Ironically, if Trump’s draining of the DC Swamp succeeds (I refrain from comment on his exclusively foreign policy misadventures), we—and many others around the world—may all be better off than if Trump remained president for the past four years. He has come into office with a mandate for fundamental change, with a deeper knowledge of the task before him and how to attack it, and with a vigor and determination and preparation that is breathtaking."

"We are smack in the middle of a Fourth Turning, and the turmoil of it all has affected the entire West. Over the last five years, virtually every major institution has disgraced itself. What used to be a high-trust society has been blown to smithereens, and nobody knows what to think anymore. And even when an individual person’s convictions haven’t changed, despite the societal turmoil, it is very difficult to know who to think those convictions with. This implosion of all the trusted institutions and relationships has of course included those of us on the political right.
"...So what am I saying? When being normal is weird, be normal. When being normal is normal, remember why you should be normal, and be prepared to defend it, which cannot be done apart from Christ. And when being normal is weird, don’t be extra weird. Be extra normal. Normal you say? By what standard? To the law and to the testimony. Exactly so."
Doug Wilson
“The decline of community in the modern world has as its inevitable religious consequence the creation of masses of helpless, bewildered individuals who are unable to find solace in Christianity regarded merely as creed.”

American diplomacy should continue to stand up for genuine democracy, freedom of expression, and unapologetic celebrations of European nations’ individual character and history. America encourages its political allies in Europe to promote this revival of spirit, and the growing influence of patriotic European parties indeed gives cause for great optimism. Our goal should be to help Europe correct its current trajectory.
