Written in the early 16th century, 'The Prince' is a realistic instruction guide for new rulers. Machiavelli argues that an effective leader must be skilled in the art of war, sometimes cruel, and willing to use deception and manipulation to achieve political goals. The book is divided into chapters that discuss various types of principalities, how to acquire and maintain power, and the qualities a prince should possess. Machiavelli uses historical examples, including the career of Cesare Borgia, to illustrate his points. The treatise emphasizes the importance of maintaining the goodwill of the people and the stability of the state, even if it means deviating from traditional virtues. 'The Prince' remains a controversial but influential work in modern political philosophy.
The Death of the West
How Dying Populations and Immigrant Invasions Imperil Our Country and Civilization
Patrick J. Buchanan
The book argues that Western civilization is in decline due to collapsing birth rates in Europe and the U.S., coupled with population explosions in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Buchanan uses United Nations population statistics to support his claims and argues that uncontrolled immigration and the rise of a counter-culture are eroding traditional Western values and threatening American democracy. He also critiques the cultural elite and the impact of the 1960s cultural revolution on American society[1][2][5].
Populism has taken the reins of the Republican Party and that is a good thing.
Decorated military veteran and content machine, Troy Carico, joins the podcast this week to discuss the forthcoming Pax Americana under Emperor Donald John Trump. Drawing from his 22 years of military service and intelligence expertise, Carico champions Trump’s unapologetic embrace of realpolitik—a pragmatic, power-driven approach to international relations rooted in the strategies of Machiavelli, Bismarck, and Kissinger.
He argues that Trump’s America-first bravado has reshaped the global stage, prioritizing national interests through bold diplomacy and military might, rejecting globalist ideals, and emphasizing strength over appeasement in a world of competing powers.
While acknowledging criticisms of Trump’s approach as isolationist, Carico defends it as a necessary retrenchment, leveraging America’s economic and military dominance to secure prosperity and cultural ascendancy. He envisions a “nouveau Pax Americana,” where the U.S. stands as a fearless colossus, balancing fear and respect as Machiavelli advised.
Carico’s fervent call to action urges patriots to embrace this era of American supremacy, celebrating a leader who wields realpolitik with conviction. His insights offer a provocative perspective on Trump’s legacy and America’s role in a turbulent world, making this episode a must-listen for those intrigued by geopolitics and national pride.
