Lawfare has been with us since the inception of the country. Both Democrat and Republican prosecutors and investigating agents have misused their authority to pursue otherwise innocent victims over time. But with the arrival of Hillary Clinton at the White House, the practice was refined in tandem with her efforts to pursue all those who offered public criticism about her husband and the Clinton Administration. Her "war rooms" in the White House, the Senate, and at the State Department sowed the seeds for ongoing corruption within the Department of Justice.

From the beginning of American history, free speech has been crucial for the pursuit of justice and expansion of democracy. Yet today, we are seeing growing attempts to roll back free speech protections in America: cultural warriors are banning books from library shelves at a level not seen in decades, and elected officials are attacking free speech principles to undermine other rights and consolidate their own power.

For years, America’s elite and the institutions in their control have led the public to believe that domestic political violence in the United States is almost solely a rightwing phenomenon. But what if the facts tell a very different story? In only the last several years, corporate CEOs and...

On October 6, 2005, nineteen-year-old Kareem Johnson was stabbed aboard a Route 13 trolley in Yeadon, Pennsylvania. The attack left investigators with two crime scenes, conflicting witness accounts, limited physical evidence, and no usable surveillance footage. The case that emerged would rely heavily on human observation—and would be challenged in court for years. Blood on the Trolley is written by the detective sergeant who led the homicide investigation. This is not a dramatized true-crime story.

Kim Yong shares his harrowing account of life in a labor camp—a singularly despairing form of torture carried out by the secret state. Although it is known that gulags exist in North Korea, little information is available about their organization and conduct, for prisoners rarely escape both incarceration and the country alive. Long Road Home shares the remarkable story of one such survivor, a former military official who spent six years in a gulag and experienced firsthand the brutality of an unconscionable regime.

Nobel Peace Prize laureate María Corina Machado is the leader of Venezuela’s democratic movement and a key advocate for freedom in Latin America. Having won the opposition primaries in 2023 with an overwhelming 92 percent of the vote, she was arbitrarily disqualified by the Nicolás Maduro regime from participating in the 2024 presidential elections. Machado proceeded to unite the country around the call for dignity and freedom, leading the national campaign for Edmundo González that finally obtained 67 percent of the vote.

The dawn prayer calls echo through the streets. As many make their way to mosques, for some it signals the end of another illegal gay party. Under the cover of darkness, smiles on lips and sweat on foreheads, the gays of Tehran blend back into daily life. Hidden in plain sight, they plan when and where they will meet again.

In 1972 two idealistic young Americans, Charles Horman and Frank Teruggi, arrived in Chile to participate in President Salvador Allende's socialist and democratic revolution. A year later they were secretly executed as Chile's military, with U.S. backing, deposed Allende. Following a sham investigation and cover-up, a Chilean defector leveled a stunning but ultimately false accusation: a CIA agent was in the room when one of the killings was ordered.

Терроризм—не просто ужасное зло, это одна из самых сложных проб­лем современности, решение которой человечеству еще предстоит найти. Джон Хорган, признанный эксперт в области психологии терроризма, в своей книге описывает механизмы, приводящие обычных людей на путь насильственного экстремизма. Их действия зачастую продиктованы разрушительной идеологией, которая оправдывает применение насилия во имя больших целей, однако мотивация террористов может казаться рациональными только им самим.

Un essai courageux au service d'un combat désormais inévitable contre l'intolérance, le fanatisme et l'oppression. Dans L'Islam contre la modernité , Ferghane Azihari, issu d'une famille musulmane comorienne, mais d'abord libre penseur, mène un combat intellectuel à la manière de Voltaire. À la lumière des textes fondateurs et de la géopolitique, il montre comment l'Islam a rejeté l'héritage des grandes civilisations antiques, colonisé les esprits et les peuples, et bâti un système de surveillance morale étouffant.

« Il s'agira de réfléchir à la notion de territoire, à ce qu'elle suppose, à ce qu'elle engendre, ce à quoi elle oblige. Un territoire est délimité, régi et protégé. Ces trois notions n'ont jamais vraiment existé depuis la création de l'État d'Israël, transformant la cohabitation entre Israéliens et Palestiniens en face-à-face sécuritaire plutôt qu'en partage politique d'une terre.

War in the desert has always carried with it a certain mythology. Vast, open landscapes stretching beyond the horizon, the shimmer of heat rising from endless sand, and the sense that movement itself becomes both freedom and danger. In such an environment, conventional warfare struggles to take root. Supply lines grow fragile, navigation becomes uncertain, and survival depends as much on understanding the land as it does on confronting the enemy.

If you have even a shred of common sense left in you, then the truth should already be screaming at you from above. The streaks that linger for hours, the hazy white veil that dulls the sun, the grid-like patterns that crisscross an otherwise clear sky—these are not the skies our grandparents knew. These are not natural phenomena. These are the fingerprints of something deliberate, something engineered. Stratospheric aerosol injection, solar radiation management, climate intervention—whatever euphemism the establishment wants to slap on it, the reality remains the same. We are being sprayed.

Todas estas preguntas y algunas otras convergen en un manifiesto por la supervivencia de Israel, una reflexión sobre su significado histórico y su importancia como bastión de la democracia en Oriente Próximo frente al totalitarismo islamista y el antisemitismo. Bernard-Henri Lévy ha escrito un ensayo de ira y combate alimentado por medio siglo de amor. Para él, tras los hechos del 7 de octubre de 2023, está en juego el derecho a existir de los judíos, pero también los principios ilustrados que dan forma a los irrenunciables valores occidentales.

Today’s fact-checkers assure us that they analyze speech without fear or favor and promise to hold powerful politicians and pundits to account when they lie to the public. It turns out that they themselves are often among the biggest liars in our larger political dialogue. Presented with claims or facts that are inconvenient for the dominant media narrative, fact-checkers slant their rulings.
