Restoring American Culture
by Roger Kimball on February 14, 2025 at 3:45 PM
Trump has repeatedly said that his common-sense revolution would usher in a “new golden age.” In the context of unleashing the economy and technological innovation, we can understand this to mean literal gold. But a large part of our new golden age will be aggregated under the rubric of normality. The return of common sense is also the return of the normal.

Populist Conservatism and Constitutional Order
by Kevin D. Roberts on October 26, 2024 at 2:59 PM
American conservatism exists to serve the people and the nation through the Constitution. This includes defending them against enemies foreign and domestic. And the fact is, elite institutions have become the people’s and the nation’s enemies. They are openly waging cultural war on those they ostensibly serve. They cannot be negotiated with or accommodated. They must be defunded, disbanded, and disempowered. The rewards for doing so—for putting American families first again—will be greater than we can know. The post Populist Conservatism and Constitutional Order appeared first on Imprimis.
