[ad_1] Nuriel Vera-Degraff, The Indypendent. On May 31, Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir marched down Fifth Avenue as a part of New York City’s annual Israel Day Parade. He was joined by many of the state’s most prominent Democratic politicians including Governor Kathy Hochul, Senator Chuck Schumer and Attorney General Leticia James. In another sign of collapsing support for Israel, Ben-Gvir cancelled a planned appearance at the UN on Tuesday in the face of a flurry of protests led by the Palestine Youth Movement-coordinated “Stop Ben-Gvir Campaign.” More than 150 protesters celebrated Ben-Gvir’s cancellation at a PYM-led rally also held on…

[ad_1] Andy Serkis has played some of contemporary film’s most memorable characters: Gollum in the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit trilogies, Kong in King Kong, Caesar in the Planet of the Apes reboot, proto-punk icon Ian Dury in the biopic Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll, and arms dealer Ulysses Klaue in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Serkis has also moved behind the camera: He directed an animated adaptation of George Orwell’s Animal Farm, which was released in theaters on May 1. Later that month, Serkis spoke with Reason’s Nick Gillespie about his new film, authoritarianism, and what unites his signature roles. Q: Let’s talk…

[ad_1] As an inhabitant of one of the cities caught up in the nationwide heatwave earlier this month—Columbus, Ohio—I can confirm that the weather was stifling. The heatwave has dropped out of the news—that will happen when a Democratic Senate candidate has ended his cataclysmically ill-advised candidacy and the Iran War peace deal has evidently failed to hold—but the temperatures remain persistently unpleasant. But, having learned from my upbringing in the reliably hot and humid suburbs of New Orleans that the solution when such weather arrives is to buy a ticket for as long a movie as possible in an…

[ad_1] Wednesday night marked the end of Graham Platner.  In a winding, 11-minute diatribe, the self-styled working-class oyster farmer running in Maine for the U.S. Senate denied sexual assault allegations, casting himself as the victim of a wide-ranging conspiracy plot by Democratic Party operatives eager to supplant his progressive political campaign. Platner played the victim, claiming the damage done by the allegations was too much to overcome, both tactically and politically, and announcing he would suspend his campaign and withdraw from the November election. And though the claims against Platner are still being litigated, on Capitol Hill one woman was…

[ad_1] White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt isn’t thrilled with her generation. In a recent interview with Fox News’ Jesse Watters, she agreed that her fellow Zoomers are lazy and entitled. “This generation, my generation, I hate to say it, Gen Z and those younger than me have been raised with just silver spoons in their mouths,” she told the Fox News host. She added that they’ve been given everything and are completely ungrateful for those privileges. She even thinks some of them need to be sent to Cuba or Iran to straighten up. The comments didn’t land well on…

[ad_1] The new way forward posited by so called democratic socialists is nothing more than another false dichotomy within a political establishment offering more of the same collectivist tyranny. True liberty comes from opposing the state! In mainstream political discourse a big shift is currently taking place towards the favor of “Democratic socialism” as Americans are becoming more disenfranchised with the capitalist status quo. That is, the status quo of state-capitalism, otherwise known as corporatism, wherein government intervention in the form of corporate welfare on behalf of big business stifles the market in favor of monopoly, in direct opposition to…
