The Weekly Standard

The Weekly Standard is no more
The President (Bill Kristol) is all about the never Trump movement
Don’t always equate sound policies with good and evil

Ship of Fools

Book by Tucker Carlson
About how America’s elites have basically betrayed the country
“Happy nations don’t elect Donald Trump, desperate nations do.” - Carlson
Every society is ruled by elites
Quick read, engaging read, recommended read!
