How can any person with a modicum of rationality listen to a sick person like Nick Fuentes? This man is insane!

Gail Breakey's avatar

Really sick, and it is frightening to think that other men agree with him.

Lydia Creydt's avatar

Fuentes makes his money saying outrageous stuff. Anyone who believes what he's saying is certifiable (including Fuentes).

As a public service, here's the Contrarian calls to action from Thursday. https://contrarian.substack.com/p/contrarian-calls-to-action-b6e?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email

It's heartening to see that some Congressional Republicans have been taking Trump on....Canadian tatiffs, Epstein, etc. We need to encourage more.

I still think Epstein is where Trump's vulnerable underbelly is located.

Take back the House and he is doomed, so is the Epstein-class cabal in TRump's Administration. If the Republicans left in the Senate don't convict, it will prove they are pedophile protectors.

Get Congress and the White House, next project SCOTUS.

Daniel Solomon's avatar

Get the subpoena power and all the perps wiil be called......

Hearings on all the issues....

Check out what's happening in the UK, in France Norway, even Poland.....

Accountability is THE word there. Democrats are learning/teaching with them today. I love that President Zelensky just talked about how much younger he is than Putin.

"Several Democrats, including Representatives Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ruben Gallego, Jason Crow, Yassamin Ansari, and Sara Jacobs, alongside Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer and California Governor Gavin Newsom, are meeting with European officials at the Munich Security Conference to discuss transatlantic relations and foreign policy, according to The Guardian and Politico."-AI Overview

Gail Breakey's avatar

Really hope that they come up with more support for Zelensky. I have a hard tie with all that he and his people are going through.

Daniel Solomon's avatar

I'm sorry, but this is the kind of grandstanding I'm always taking about. As far as I'm concerned all those people would be more effective working Congressional Republicans....

E.G. California, standing alone has enough Congressional Republicans to oust Comer as chair.... 6 Republicans represent Michigan in the House.

Gail Breakey's avatar

Working republicans? How???

Daniel Solomon's avatar

By convincing them. A governor, especially, can put pressure on them. So far only 6 or so have started voting with us, on an issue by issue basis, starting with tariffs. Check out the House problem solvers' conference. Dan Bacon. Brian Fitzpatrick.

E.G. 2 of the 3 MAGA reps here in Baghdad By the Sea have split with Trumpo on immigration. Dems need to make allies and take advantage.

Epstein is TRump's soft underbelly, and that is why Bondi is going to keep it locked up. Those that have seen the unredacted files say his name is in their millions of times. Pam is ensuring that his name and those of important Republican politicians and donors, will never see the light of day.

Maybe if, despite the attempts to fix the 2026 Election, a Democratic congress can order the House Sergeant at Arms to arrest Pam and sequester her in the jail in the basement of the Capitol building, that hold Lincolns death carriage.

But who will prosecute her, and in front of what judge, and Trump will immediately pardon her anyway, the moment she is arrested.

This has to be thoroughly thought through, game planned for all obstacles and eventualities.

Gail Breakey's avatar

Please google articles by the Guardian and Daily Beast. Plenty of stories about trump, his modelling agency and underage girls.

William Farrar's avatar

Duh, I know that, read the same sources, but that was not the issue.

William Farrar's avatar

Instead of defaming me, answer the questions.

I asked questions asshole, answer them.

If anyone is an agent of Trump it is you, trying to have people chase will o the wisps.

So answer the question.

Daniel Solomon's avatar

FU.

Don't have to arrest anyone. She can be impeached. There are also other jurisdictions involved. Lots of judicial remedies I told you about. Reread the link to Joyce Vance about contempt of Congress.

You are an idiot. Resentful. Take your meds.

William Farrar's avatar

Joyce Vance talks of inherent contempt etc, but there is no remedy.

I repeat unless one can be arrested, indicted and brought before a court any talk of inherent contempt is mute.

So who is going to arrest Bondi,Trump, any member of his cabinet, ICE and CBP agents? Who is going to arrrest them? The Sergeant at Arms?

Ok they get arrested. Where will they be jailed?

OK they are jailed in the basement of the Capitol.

Who is going to prosecute them? I;ll tell you who, Pam Bondi, that's who.

Pam is going to prosecute herself, Joyce Vance, like you, is stuck in the law, but ignores the reality of the situation.

Remember Trump was impeached Three times, and there he sits. An impeachment means nothing unless there is a conviction and removal from office.

Your final remarks, ad hominems, make you look out of control. Resentful?

Project much do you.

William Farrar's avatar

She can be impeached huh, by a Trumpian congress, give me a break. And impeachments are of no consequence unless the impeached is removed by the senate. And it takes 67 votes to remove the impeached.

Try some other farce.

Daniel Solomon's avatar

You think you know people. Guess what? You don't.

None of gthe memebers of Congress want to be indicted as co-conspirators to stuff like obstruction of justice.

The 2nd impeachment was winnable. It was a shame. As my "ol Pappy used to say, justice takes a kick in the ass sometimes. I have personally been the victim of miscarriages of justice.

But that doesn't mean we give up.

CARLA M LA ROSA's avatar

It Trump is impeached again in the House, I wonder whether Mitch McConnell will vote to convict this time. Will he finally do the right thing now that he's never running again...Not to mention the fact that he's old, and needs to start doing something right if he want to get into Heaven (Ha)?

Geez, you'd think that women don't know how to shoot according to Fuentes.....

This idiot-man-child started his "business" from his mom's basement. He is an incel sicko. His mom must be so proud.

This Epstein saga is going to lead to murder, lots and lots of murders. One recently questioned death is about a young dental student: Jiwon Lee, 29, went missing April 1, 2014. More than a month later, her body was pulled from the Hudson River. 

Did Jiwon know something or was she a friend of Epstein's last girlfriend, Karyna Shiliak? Heads rolled at Columbia University because Epstein paid someone to get Shiliak admitted to their dental program. Karyna was the last person to speak to Epstein.

More women than men vote. Oh, we are scary alright---scary GOOD! See you gals in the street.

Daniel Solomon's avatar

And every one of those men has a mother.....

The horror that has been going on with the rape and murder of Native American women and girls, with apparent impunity, seems to be traveling into the mainstream of right-wing advocacy. Nick Fuentes is a very sick and morally dangerous person for even saying out loud that women are the enemy and have to all be locked up. But nobody would dare entertain, let alone utter, such thoughts if it weren't for the corporate media's legitimization of Trump, a serial abuser of women, and perhaps even a murderer.

Cindy Felici's avatar

There is something deeply disturbing about millions of men in this country who listen to Nick Fuentes who should be declared mentally incompetent instead he spreads his hate and lies at the White House This is terrifying since they are trying to take the vote away from us They already demolished heath care for women Dint think it can’t happen here Look at Afghanistan where a women can’t even leave her house or speak in public look at Iran where women are killed for not wearing the hijab It was not so long ago that women were voiceless and powerless in this country Declared insane and sent to asylums Time to fight back We need to bring this to more people and let them know we are not only fighting for democracy but the rights of women NOW

Misogyny Has Become the ‘Gateway Drug’

for Violent Extremism

I read 100 manifestos from violent attackers.

There was one common thread.

These attackers may not belong to formal terrorist organizations,

but their writings reveal consistent ideological patterns.

Among them, one stands out: misogyny.

Misogyny is the ‘gateway drug’

AI: As of early 2026, Nick Fuentes has approximately 1.2 million followers on X (formerly Twitter). Since being reinstated on the platform by Elon Musk in May 2024, his following has grown significantly from an initial 140,000.

Beyond X, his digital footprint and audience engagement include:

Rumble: His "America First" livestreams average around 1 million views per episode, with a core viewership base cited at approximately 500,000.

Alternative Platforms: He utilizes his own streaming platform, Cozy.tv, following bans from mainstream sites like YouTube and DLive.

Broad Reach: A high-profile, two-hour interview with Tucker Carlson in late 2025 garnered over 20 million views across various platforms.

His fan base, known as the "Groypers" or the "Groyper Army," is characterized as a loose-knit network of young, highly active internet trolls who often infiltrate mainstream conservative events and organizations. Despite his large following on X, some researchers have questioned the "organic engagement" of his metrics, suggesting they may be bolstered by bot activity or highly concentrated niche groups.

As I have said many times the US should outlaw the Nazi party like Germany and 19 other countries have.

They come for my wife, daughters, granddaughters, and I'll avail myself of my Second Amendment rights. I'll go down fighting before I'll allow that.

Elena Schott's avatar

But when about women who are not your property? Your neighbors and the old lady who lives across town? I don't mean to castigate you , but rather to say that if fighting back only starts at home , then it's already too late and you're not disagreeing with the claims they make , but rather simply that those claims should never apply to you and those you claim yourself.

Spare me. I'm only one disabled old man and I don't carry outside of my home. I may verbally protest, but that all I'm capable of doing these days. Take that as you will.

Gene Wood's avatar

The section on Nick Fuentes is not good .. take the time to read it .. while it may not be mainstream, he is blathering this stuff to other young men .. just what we need are more men like Stephen miller ..

Robin's avatar

Very scary report but people have power , resist , resist , resist by showing up in Streets for No Kings Rally on March 28.

We have to do to everything to protect our midterm votes . Orange man will do anything to scare people from voting and steal the ballots . Be awake and vigilant. Also let everyone know to get their Id’s and if you know someone who don’t have money and transportation to get where ID’s are issued try to help them out .

Jean(Muriel)'s avatar

That we are even seeing these atrocious crimes. That we as a people can even imagine this kind of moral and physical debasement. Are we truly the ugliest , most evil, angry humans on earth?

Looks like it.

Our flag hangs in half mast in disgust and in shame. Two words we have amazingly forgotten. 😱👽

God have mercy on this crazy ass country. Thank you for your reporting!

We all know that the SAVE act is meant to suppress the vote with the excuse being that non-citizens are voting or will vote. Why would non-citizens show up at the polls when doing so would put them in a position where they could be "captured" and deported. There is no reason for them to want to vote when it puts them in danger.

Fuentes needs to move to Mars with Elon… perfect pair of sociopaths

Roy Shults's avatar

Quite possibly the most disturbing and disgusting column you have ever posted, Thom. Fuentes deserves a gulag for life, for sure. As do those insecure, horrific males who agree with him.The Epstein files need to be fully disclosed, and any crimes revealed prosecuted. But mostly, your column shows how deep the rot goes amongst men, and not just the morbidly rich ones. Either decent people of all sexual orientations rise up in every way possible, or not just the American experiment, but the human one, deserve to fail and fall into oblivion. A world run by cockroaches would be an improvement at this point.

Lordy, lordy, Danial and William you sent me on a time warp. Back to the playground in third grade. I used to think both of you were intelligent, thoughtful and though differing could work together toward the same goal, getting rid of Trump and his minions. Unless I'm engaging in magical thinking this will be accomplished in the next election. People have awakened now they just have to act. Of course we're still left with a government that is corrupted by money. Are we up to the task of addressing that? I don't know. At 93 will I live to see it resolved? Don't know that either.

William Farrar's avatar

Someone tell me how, since per the Constitution, all powers not delegated to the federal government are reserved to the states, Thus it is the state that set criteria and administer elections, and it takes an amendment to change the election criteria, for instand the 19th gave women the vote, the 26th 19 year olds and 15th black men.

So how can a mere bill passed by congress change the various states authority. I don't believe it can, and am surprised that not a soul has questioned the attempt.

Daniel Solomon's avatar

You are the same guy who has attributed supernatural powers to Trump.

William Farrar's avatar

Yeh right, you are a blowhard, throw out accusations like they are confetti. You have no answers, so you accuse.

And what the fuck does your snide and snarky comment have to do with the question I raise

So how can a mere bill passed by congress change the various states authority. I don't believe it can, and am surprised that not a soul has questioned the attempt.?

Trump has threatened that if the Senate doesn't pass the SAVE act, he will issue and executive order. The Constitution doesn't give him that power, nor does it give congress the power to change the various states authorities without a Constitutional amendment.

WTF is wrong with you Daniel, you so seethe with anger, that regardless of what I comment, you have to try and attack me. This makes you look demented.

If women and men do not stand up for women; there is going to be some serious problems if they start putting women in concentration camps. I’m passed childbearing age and my adult daughters do not want anymore kids plus my granddaughter is about to go to college. I’m also sick of white men putting white women down for caring about individuals with darker skin tones. Evidently, some of these white men who are trying to say to out women in concentration camps cannot get a good woman on his own and to force women to give birth is not of the real God in the Bible. May all of us in America and in other countries pushback on all this horrible nonsense
